* '''The Dweller's Shanty''' ({{Aspect|Lantern|4}}, Rite of the Third Eye): Description:The widely known version of this seafarer’s song tells of an ill fated sea voyage, and ends with the sinking of the ship. But that is not where this story ends. Study Start: How the ship sank varies, depending on the singer. And it is ultimately unimportant, for it is how one overcomes a struggle that is important, according to He Who Dwells In Depths. He converses with The Captain as he sinks. Study Finish:The deeper The Captain sank, the more he saw, and the stronger he became, until his feet touched the bottom of the sea, and by the grace of He Who Dwells In Depths, he fell into the Mansus. The ritual within should provide you with a similar vision.
* '''Two Beings''' ({{Aspect|Secret Histories|2}}, Contentment): A fable written in the style of a children’s story about a squid and a reptile, and the friendship they share. The illustrations are typical of books written by the People’s Committee for Openings.
* '''Monsters of the Sea''' ({{Aspect|Lantern|8}}): A bestiary discussing sea creatures monstrous and mundane. Study Start: The tone is patronizing, but the text itself is accurate and detailed. Perhaps a little overly-detailed, considering how unlikely it would be for the author to visit many of the deep-sea places discussed. Study Finish: The end of the book has a twenty-page dissertation on the possible mating rituals and reproductive habits of the ‘colossal abyssal squid.’ More than anyone should ever learn. In Latin.
