Description
We need you to retrieve Marshal M. Valentine's body at the ocean floor below. I should warn you: this part of the ocean is going to be very deep, and very dark, and very cold. Speak with Hobart at the starboard side of the ship. He's brought all the machinery you'll need to get to the ocean floor.
