So in non-radiation-leaking news…[There’s a slight pause and then the splashing of water like Percy’s still in the ocean.] Staying away from the Kharaa sounded like a great idea and I might have found something else.

The place where the water flows below. I think I found it. [And for anyone who wasn’t part of the Grand Reef exploration:] When we went to explore the Grand Reef some of the fish kept mentioning something that attacked the Degasi crew and that one of them might’ve sunk to the water that flows below. Problem is I don’t know if that means one of the crew members or one of whatever attacked them.

Anyway, I’m going back. I didn’t get far enough to really explore down there but there’s a bunch of caves and waterfalls that need to be checked out. [A beat.] Annnd some other stuff.

[That’s not ominous at all.] The tunnels should be big enough to get a submarine down there if anybody wants to come with me. [And suddenly he seems a little more commanding.] I don’t know what we’re going to find down there but if you think you can hold your own, let me know. I want to go back soon.

There's other fish around the area that avoid the river, but that's a good point. We don't know what else is hiding.

[...Hajime...] Would a hazmat suit stop the acid from eating through? [This is a good question why are we considering this, gods.]

I have no idea! Although I'm not suggesting going in the river, that's silly. But just in case we need to get close.

[ it'll be fine. ]

How about I leave you to gathering those and loading them into the sub? Sound like a plan?

Gatcha!
