Bab 252: Back to the Ocean

Despite the doubts that ran through his mind, Jake drove the disabled young woman from his mind. If fate wished for them to meet in this Ordeal, it would happen naturally if they both survived until the next ordeal.

For the moment, the priority was to find his companions and think about his survival strategy on this island. Surviving on the island until the descent of the Phantom Sanctuary was not the only tricky problem to solve. In addition to the fact that the number of places inside the Sanctuary would be limited, it was also necessary to determine where the Sanctuary in question would appear.

The description of the third trial spoke of a "descent", which suggested that the Phantom Sanctuary would descend from the sky like a spaceship, but this could very well be a metaphor. This vessel or building could either descend from the sky, or rise from the bottom of the ocean or the earth.
