You guys have some weird theories...

What I personally believe, based on the PDAs left behind at the DGR base, is that a Reaper Leviathan followed Maida back to the base and destroyed it. In Paul’s final PDA, he said “just as its tentacles came within reach.” To some of you, you may think he’s talking about the Sea Dragon, but how can the Sea Dragon attack with its tentacles? That’s not something it can do, as it only uses them for swimming.

What I think is that those “tentacles” Paul talks about are the mandibles on the Reaper Leviathan. Yes, they don’t at all look like tentacles, but do you really expect Paul to think that when he was just suddenly swept from his base and is about to be killed? No.

Also, after Maida left with the Reaper, Paul stated that it was bigger than a Cyclops. This could be an exaggeration, as they may have not had a Cyclops at that base, and he just compared it to the biggest thing he knew.

Later on, he says “then I thought I saw a light, deep below me. Now I wonder whether I saw anything at all.” This could mean that either the light source he saw was capable of moving, or he somehow lost his bearings and lost sight of the light. What I think he saw was either a Crabsquid or a Jellyray. Both of these have bioluminescence, and while they are relatively large creatures, Paul was far away from them, which may make the light they were giving off seem small.
