I watched nervously as they went down. We could barely see anything below us. The sky was so dark it was nearly black.

After all, we had been searching for so long but hadn't been able to find a precise location. Wasn't that strange?

"He must be here. But Navi is cunning. The more elusive he is, the more it shows that things aren't simple. Your father must be hiding some secrets." Atlas's expression was solemn. "He rushed back here overnight, so this place must be important. And think about it: what's the crucial point?"
