For centuries, ancient writers spoke of a prosperous Egyptian city that had simply vanished.

Heracleion had not disappeared from history.

It had sunk beneath the sea—and waited more than a thousand years to be found again.

Journey beneath the waters of Abu Qir Bay in the latest Gothic Dust Diaries — SUNKEN.
