Alongside the article, Seeker sent a message: “The location seems remote and deep. And the energy signatures mentioned… they sound like something more than just geological activity.”
A deep-sea trench. An uncharted part of the ocean. Strange energy signatures. It felt like a potential match. The mountain sculpture’s guidance indeed felt like it was pointing into the depths.
A deep-sea trench presented a completely different set of challenges compared to a rain forest or a mountain. I couldn’t just hire a guide and hike there. Reaching such depths required specialized equipment and technology.
My freelance writer budget certainly didn’t cover a deep-sea research expedition. But my experiences in the rain forest and the mountains had taught me one thing: when fate calls, you find a way.
I started looking for opportunities to join a deep-sea research team, or even an extreme diving expedition. It was a long shot. Most of these ventures required specific scientific expertise or significant funding.
