It Could Be Anywhere!

When I found out that Miss Boulian was helping Nesingwary with his expedition, I signed up as a deckhand immediately. You see, I'd been meaning to marry her for months!$B$BI had it all planned out. I was going to propose the very night of the shipwreck... but now the ring is gone. I've searched everywhere!$B$BI know it might sound crazy, but I know the engagement ring is in the Basin. If some Venture Company didn't steal it, maybe a wild creature ate it. But it's here somewhere... I just know it!
