The researcher's referral leads Selena to the city on page 312 of Marcus's archive - the city where the pre-PARISH architect's research facility received the vault network's transmission, and where Marcus's safety deposit box letter said the final proof could be found. What Selena finds is Marcus's most complete work: a second investigation he conducted in the final year of his life, tracing the person who built the thing he was looking for before he knew he was looking for it. This person is not the pre-PARISH architect. They are not in The Institutional Record's architecture. They are a private individual who built, forty years ago, the foundational corporate ownership structure that every subsequent network has used - not as a criminal, in the original instance, but as an institutional designer who believed they were building something legitimate. They are still alive. They have been waiting for the investigator who could find them using Marcus's methodology. They want to explain what they built and what it became.
