'While others look up to the stars, my family know that there are an infinite number of things that shine brightly in the darkness below. Most of our world lies unexplored, unexplained. There are things lurking in the seas that have only ever been spoken about in myth.
'My family are explorers.
'We have been for generations.
'We explore ... the Deep.'
