Mars remembers everything. Even the things left behind.
Dave and the humanoids survived the Lava Tube Incident. Mostly.
But when strange signals begin pulsing beneath the Martian surface, the team finds themselves drawn back toward the volcanic tunnels they barely escaped before.
What begins as a routine investigation quickly turns into something far stranger - old distress beacons, impossible excavation marks, and evidence that someone, or something, was trying desperately to reach the surface.
As dust storms close in and tensions rise underground, the crew must decide whether the caves beneath Mars are hiding a threat.
Or a forgotten explorer that never stopped searching.
Featuring malfunctioning sensors, preventative lubrication, questionable engineering decisions, and at least one airborne wok incident.
The Spirit Below is a story about exploration, survival, friendship, and the strange things waiting patiently in the dark.
Mars was never silent. They just finally listened.
