Valentine found his father's old worn-out notebook after he dived one last time and never surfaced. He's determined to follow in his footsteps (Minus the last part!) and see the last step of the Trench. At least he's prepared..? Hey all, this is my first fiction that I'm going to try seriously posting. Huge uber massive inspiration taken from Deepwoken and Made in Abyss, Seriously I'm basically taking Deepwoken's magic system and just yoinking it and filling in the blanks and pretty obvious inspiration from MIA. I'll try to make it different and interesting for you all, if you decide to stick around. Expect some lovecraftian horror, morally questionable decisions and a mostly rational MC.
