Previously on the Adventure Zone Ethersea, a stowaway appears who siphons away resources,

0:09.1

and also notably there is no sign of the benefactor ship. There's nothing in this crater

0:16.8

and sitting right smack dab in the middle of it is a big clam. You pick up what this thing

0:25.2

is feeling with this spell. It's hungry? Like insatiably hungry. Divo, you are suspended in this

0:33.3

stream of water falling down and from the way that you are sort of dangling, you see

0:39.4

Zooks just plummet over the edge and fall into the abyss. There goes nothing. I should have mentioned

0:46.6

before now I do not know how to swim. Hey, we're just inside a giant clam.

0:54.8

We have company. We have underwater swarving red company and another huge

2:55.8

There is a is there breathable air in your clam. Yeah, you all are you all are basically on the

3:00.7

surface of a giant lake inside of this like a problem inside of this clam. Yes, every time it opens

3:06.9

to mouth water pours into this this grotto, but it's much bigger. It's this clam. It is infinitely

3:14.7

large. This clam you would say. Oh yeah. And as it opens its mouth the bathosphere that was sort

3:21.6

of dangling down into it fell in and moments later the Coriolis got sucked in and is now actively
