Frost looked towards Ava, then back at the sea. The thought was difficult to shake now that it had occurred to him, though he supposed a teleportation platform could have brought them almost anywhere.
They might have been hundreds of miles from the base for all he knew.
"Is the base underwater?" he asked.
Ava glanced at him. "What makes you think that?"
"The walls, the machinery, the lack of an exit…"
"And...? We used a teleportation platform to get here, after all."
Frost paused.
"That doesn't mean I'm wrong."
"It doesn't mean you're right either," she replied, stepping down from the platform. "Come on. You can spend the afternoon guessing where you sleep after you've finished training."
Jarek gave Frost a faint smile as he passed, while Corin followed Ava without appearing particularly interested in the answer.
Perhaps the others already knew, or perhaps they were simply less bothered by the possibility of having spent the past several weeks at the bottom of the sea.
