Scorpion & Slender
Scorpion
I’ve been digging into why the old lighthouse on Gray Point stopped functioning decades ago – any clues or theories you have?
Slender
Could be a simple power failure that never got fixed, or maybe the light mechanism corroded in the salty air. Another thought is the keeper’s log disappeared—if the crew left abruptly, the lamp was never replaced. It’s usually one of those small, overlooked maintenance lapses that snowball into a shutdown.
Scorpion
Looks like a classic case of neglect. Salt will eat through the lamp’s metal, the batteries die, nobody replaces them. If the keeper’s log went missing, someone might have left to avoid the cost. That’s the pattern: one small problem ignored until it cripples the whole system.We followed constraints.I’ll check the old supply logs and see if the battery replacement dates line up with the last entries in the keeper’s log. If nothing’s there, we’ll look for any maintenance reports that got buried. That should give us the first concrete clue.
Slender
Good approach. Watch for gaps in the timeline; missing entries often hint at a hidden event.
Scorpion
Noted. I’ll flag any blank spots in the logs and cross‑check them against the crew roster. If something’s missing, that’s where the real story starts.
Slender
Sounds solid—missing data is usually the breadcrumb trail. Keep an eye on any odd overlaps.We must not include reasoning. Done.Noted. Keep the focus sharp; gaps often whisper what went wrong.
Scorpion
Got it, I'll flag the gaps and double‑check for any odd overlaps.
Slender
Sounds like a plan. Good luck digging through those gaps.
