For Captain Elias Thorne, 120795 was the code etched into the brass compass he had inherited from his grandfather, a man who claimed to have seen forests of pinkish-purple leaves growing directly on the surface of an endless ocean [18]. Elias had spent decades dismissing these tales as the ramblings of a sun-drenched sailor, but everything changed when his ship, the Solstice , was caught in a freak magnetic storm.
Elias woke up on the deck of his ship in the calm Atlantic, the brass compass cool in his hand. The glow was gone, and the etching was just a scratch in the metal. He looked at his crew, who were blinking in the sudden sunlight, and smiled. "Where have we been, Captain?" his first mate asked.
However, the Reach was fading. To save it, Elias had to input the code into a Great Engine at the island's core. As he turned the final dial to 5, the island shuddered, and the pinkish-purple forests flared with brilliant energy [18]. The island stabilized, but the Solstice was pulled back into the fold of reality.
