At a location where the presence of a ship was virtually impossible, the discovery of a sunken ship, especially in such a sensitive location, along with Catherine's previous speculation, gave rise to potential hidden reasons, which momentarily silenced the five of them.
"Do you think Doris might have found this sunken ship during her explorations?" Standing atop the remains of the deep-sea beast, Catherine gazed at the vague shadow in the near distance. "I remember Badiya mentioning casually that Doris had explored every part of the sea floor. That's why she suggested we search the central islands. Considering this, I reckon she must have explored here too."
"So that's why Doris never mentioned it herself." Pannis nodded in agreement. "She probably didn't want us to miss this clue."
"But why didn't she just tell us directly?" Catherine voiced her perplexity. "If she had, we would have had a target. We could have saved time instead of aimlessly searching like this."
