Kaelen's eyes widened. "In the middle of this hurricane? Without a lifeboat? That's suicide. The fall alone will kill us, and the Sirens will pick us apart in the water."
"Not if we time it right," Kang Min replied. "Liora, I need you to find the exact resonance point of the Aethel-Core in the hull. Zoya, I need your most volatile 'Deep-Sea Depth Charges'. Kaelen, you lead the distraction. You have to make the Captain believe we're making a desperate push for the helm."
"And you?" Kaelen asked.
"I'll be dealing with the anchor," Kang Min said, a sharp glint in his eyes.
The plan was a gamble that relied on absolute synchronization. If the core didn't blow, they would be trapped in the hull as the ship regenerated. If they blew it too early, they would be sucked into the vortex.
