Orren knows exactly how long a person can work underwater before courage becomes stupidity. He understands rope, breath, weak timbers, bad angles, and the terrible difference between having enough air to go down and having enough left to come back.
But he doesn't understand the bell.
With Lenn beside him, Orren descends into a drowned place of submerged passages, trapped air, failing structures, and darkness deep enough to hide almost anything.
Then something moves.
The deeper they go, the less the bell feels like a simple mystery - and the more every answer creates another question.
They can turn back.
They probably should.
But something beneath the water is still ringing.
And before the last breath runs out, Orren must decide which is more dangerous: what waits below - or never knowing why it called them down.
A complete standalone underwater fantasy thriller from the world of Magic Lands. No prior reading required.
