The element Nautrium is predicted to be the most sought after commodity of the 20th century, it's also Lewis Crosswick's opportunity to move up in the world by using his experimental drilling engine to reach buried deposits of the element before his competition. But as the stress of dealing with mechanical breakdowns and unsustainably long hours begins to wear him down, a series of eerie events make Crosswick wonder if he is cracking under the pressure, or if his superstitious minors are correct, and that by drilling into the ancient rock they risk unleashing dark, supernatural forces.
Nothing Returns-- a Victorian steampunk horror novella.
