Sera drew a line across the page and marked the last point at which she could place Dain’s bag.
“He had it after the security inspection,” she said. “The white strap was fastened. Mira moved him toward the next station.”
Eli nodded. “I saw the same thing. The officers left without taking anything I could see.”
“Did you see the bag after the collapse?” Tessa asked.
“No,” Sera said. “I saw people carrying equipment, but I can’t identify his bag among it.”
Eli had a later sighting. Cael had moved the bag beside Dain’s shoulder during the rescue; Dain had confirmed it was his. After Dain died, Eli saw it slide partly beneath a loose panel. He wrote that location as his last confirmed sighting. He had not seen who, if anyone, collected it afterward.
The organizers had announced that Dain’s bag was destroyed. Their notice did not list the contents or say who had custody before it was lost. Nora requested the property inventory, transfer records, security inspection form, and any available footage covering the route from the rescue zone to the transfer point.
At the property office, an official offered a general incident report.
