Aether signal tracking successful. We have arrived at the designated coordinates. |
|
Mrah! We're already underwater this time. |
|
The aerospheres are functioning properly, at least. |
|
Dang, we're in the sea? I totally figured Jade would be on a mountain. |
|
It's a lot darker than the last area we were in. |
|
Can we go back to how SICK Jellyfishie's signature spell is, tho?
You can use that to go into anyone's dream? Man, I wish I could do that! I'm jealous. |
|
Jealous? No one's ever talked about it that way before. It's a very limited spell—I can only use it when I'm asleep. |
|
That's the whole appeal! It means you can even have fun when you're conked out.
And it'd take you to weird worlds you'd never think of yourself.
That's what I call fun! |
|
I shouldn't be surprised you'd view it that way. I can definitely see you mastering the spell and having a great time with it. |
|
If Floyd had access to that spell...
He'd probably use it to intrude into other people's dreams and mess them up so badly they turn nightmares.
I for one am genuinely grateful it remains in the hands of someone as goodhearted as you, Silver. |
|
Hey, that's enough idle chatter.
Do you hear something? |
|
No, I don't... |
|
Mm? Hold up, isn't this place...? |
|
Mrah?! What's goin' on?! |
|
Surrounding water temperature rising sharply. Immediate evacuation recommendend! |
| Evacuation to where?!
| Time to show off my flutter kick!
|
|
Dreamy Magical Makeover! |
|
Quit floatin' around yappin'! We gotta go! |
|
Whew... That was close. |
|
We're safe. Thank you, Floyd. |
|
You're incredibly fast underwater. I'm amazed. |
|
What was that explosion, though? |
|
I think this's a submarine volcano in the northern depths. |
All |
A submarine volcano?! |
Coral Sea - Submarine Volcano
|
I'm confused. There are mountains underwaters? |
|
Yup. And they spew out boilin' water that looks like black smoke, like what just happened. |
|
Black smoke... Ah, you must be referring to black smokers—underwater hydrothermal vents that discharge hot black mineral-filled water.
Their emissions can reach temperatures up to 400 degrees Celsius.
And they also include many substances hazardous to organic life, including sulfus, methane, and heavy metals. |
|
Yup, and they go off without warning.
They can block off the way you came, and make you sick if you breathe too much of that smoke.
They're ways more dangerous than ship graveyards sharks use as lairs. |
|
It's worse than a shark lair? And this is where Jade is? |
|
The dreamer is usually close by when I cross into a dream, so he must be... |
|
We shouldn't tarry long in a place where toxic waters erupt without warning. Let's get the search underway. |
