This trip is going to offer a little taste of what will come later. An underwater baptism of fire. I was assuming that a team from the Pyke was going to take us to the habitat, but in fact we’ll be piloting the submarine ourselves. Or rather, I will be. The others will no doubt just be gazing in fascination through the portholes, but I can’t hold that against them. Your first descent into the deep sea is always something special. And to be perfectly honest, I’d rather not trust them with the steering anyway.
