Down

The crew of the DSV Virgil have survived horrors and catastrophes, and now it seems too much to hope for survival, let alone salvation. But Marion, Sam and Marcus will not accept defeat. In the past, present or future, in this world or the next, there must be some sliver of a chance. Maybe that will be enough.

Marion confronts Marcus, but even in his manic, fractured state he is more of a danger than she realises. Sam has relinquished control and put all his faith in the Virgil, but a splinter of doubt still troubles his mind. Meanwhile the Entity finally reveals its intent.

Marcus has found a sort of peace within the trench: the tranquility of purpose. As he labours to thoroughly stymie any attempts to take the Virgil back to the surface, he allows himself the luxury of remembering where it all began.

Without contact from Mission Control, and no way to manually ascend to the surface themselves, the crew of the Virgil submarine are essentially trapped in The Bottomless Pit. Still numb with shock, Marion tries her best to remain calm, but Charlie believes there’s a conspiracy to uncover.

The crew of the Advantage expedition have successfully captured a new species of deep sea animal, a lifeform unlike anything they have seen before. But there is no time to celebrate.

There is something in the abyss. Dr Stephen Frame has encountered a lifeform so astounding that he struggles to accurately describe it to his colleagues.
