The Lighthouse - Zenobius spotted a merchant vessel out in the sea in a storm and used his mirrors to get its attention. Once they redirected their course however it became clear that the men were not the only ones to have spotted the light -- a large group of hungry mermaids had as well. It became clear that they would never survive if they continued their trip to shore. Zenobius became distressed at this, weeping, then retreating into the lighthouse. - Anduin, Lily, Akira, Wei Wuxian, Moiraine, and Allison worked together to formulate a plan to divert them back out to sea -- and it worked! To the best of their knowledge... - Once Zenobius realized the danger had been averted for this vessel, he took the rescue group up to the top floor of the lighthouse and directs the light down into the water, where it illuminates countless boat wrecks and the salt-preserved bodies of their crew. Using a telescope, Anduin recognizes one as a man who tried to climb onto his boat on the journey to Ellethia-Hamsour. - Zenobius tells them, "Couldn't bury them here. Not even a candle to rest them easy." Do the candles have something to do with keeping the dead... dead? Or do they suppress the cycle of death and rebirth somehow? Is that why the dead do not stay that way, perhaps? - "IN TI T OF TE N LO" and "IBRAR O AR S" -- Anduin definitely thinks these signs originally read INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY and LIBRARY OF ARTS (although Wrathion argues with him the last one is LIBRARY OF STARS)
