Anon, I want to thank you for coming along on this dive, your confidence in this project is admirable. Foolish, but admirable. Alas, the acoustic monitoring system has confirmed the hull of this vessel will soon fail, and I'm afraid that the escape pod has only enough space for myself.

Do not fret though, in some ways I envy you. You shall go down in history as an intrepid explorer of the depths, while the public will likely tarnish my reputation as a result of these events. Nevertheless it is no matter, I have plenty of alternative identifies I can assume to continue my work. Once my pod reaches the surface and I'm safely aboard the surface ship we will call the coast guard to come survey the area. The items I've left aboard will certainly convince all that I have perished alongside you.

Goodbye Anon, you were a good friend.
