Atlas is flooding. You start to escape before Atlas and Mantle are flooded. However, during your escape, you see James Ironwood on the ground. Realizing you can't leave him here, you do the unexpected. You save him.

He seems to be unconscious, but it didn't matter. You just needed to save him. After getting out of the water, Ironwood wakes up and coughs. He then sees that... it's you.

"You... saved me?"
