Apparently, Sir Cameron needs to die and, apparently, this is ancient history (spoilers):
There is an amusement park Poseidon’s Adventure. A gimmick under the sea in a glass bubble. Merry go rounds, roller coasters, all inclusive resort. self contained. One piece of the park has a showing and mural that depicts scene of magic, with a wizard, dragon, and unicorns, and a dashing knight. The things of fantasy. Nothing that is real anymore in the civilization of advanced technology . Family friendly. A perfect city for vacation.
One day, when the park is full, and the morning light filtering through the glass dome is languid, the sea changes. The whole world, in fact, shakes. A flash of power sweeps, not in the dome, but above it. A red line in the waves. Something rippling in the water, not deep enough to touch the park’s depths. In the water, kids used to see colorful fish. But now there are leviathans. Great beasts, monsters from myth, slamming on the glass. The radio connection to the surface is first screaming, and then static. No one can contact them.
Panic. The doors are locked. There’s no escape, no contact above.
The people that die in the first scrambling panic, are lucky. It takes everyone else ages to die while supplies and hope dwindle. Help never comes.
Centuries later, dragons make their home here. Eventually, a knight will walk past bodies piled in the pool. This is a safe place for their machinations among the ancient forgotten technology.
