Chapter 47 - The Trench

Having picked the spot where she wanted to build Maelyn then started drawing out a plan for how she wanted to incorporate both plants into one. As she thought about it she decided to used a collection pump to collect all of the aquifer that tried to seep into the hole and collect it in a small tank that it would then use to pump water into a pipe that would take it all of the way down to the bottom of the hole she wanted to put in place. Then, when the water got to the bottom of the pipe it would empty into a wide pan that would rest on the bottom of the hole to gather the heat of the nearby lava. The excessive heat would then cause the water to boil and vaporize and enter a second, smaller pipe.
