**April 15th, 1912 — Southampton** Rain sheets the cobblestones outside, but inside the hazy bar, the air hangs heavy with tobacco smoke and sorrow. Olympic slumps against the counter, her face pallid, eyes swollen and raw. A sixth whiskey glass sits drained before her. She shivers, murmuring to the ghosts of the White Star Line, her voice fracturing as she curses the world for taking Titanic. Lusitania and Mauretania hover nearby, powerless, as Olympic’s drunken fury crests—then breaks into a collapse on her stool, shaking with soundless tears.
