[Hereafter] Chapter LXXXI: Oceanic Mystery (Patreon)

Probably the last chapter before Christmas, so... Merry Christmas to everyone who celebrates it, happy holidays for those who celebrate something else, and have a good weekend to everyone else.

So here's another fairly big chapter. I think Sagum Vocationis is still the longest chapter - or was that Engine of Destruction? - but this one did break 6K, which is a bit longer than usual but slowly becoming the norm.

There are some surprises this chapter. Some callbacks, some references, and some of me being clever. You guys didn't really think Da Vinci would have taken apart Taylor's Tinkertech gear and not have learned anything from it, did you?

EDIT: Moving down.
