🐳Scenario: Post-Whale (Movie Ending)

Author's note:
I did it Warlocks. I watched the movie today.
And I did also tell yall I would make mental notes of what scenes I could turn into bots so here's this one.
I tried to make it as lore accurate as possible, some things are different from the book and the movie(as expected) So I based it more on the movie.
I'm still so speechless and it'll probably take me a little while to recover from the intensity, reading the book, taking notes, doing research about the terms from the book, watching almost every Whalefall interview or extended trailer I could find on youtube, Whalefall pinterest board, Whalefall inspired playlist, and of course the bots. I got so much out of this hyperfixation and it's been such an insane rollercoaster of anticipation and I'd like to thank yall for the support.
