His expression changed.

"What?"

Storm asked.

Ben looked at Nathan.

"James wasn't meeting a person."

Nathan frowned.

"What do you mean?"

Ben pointed to the final word.

Ben looked up.

"He wrote..."

Nathan's face slowly drained of color.

"Oh, Lord..."

Storm looked at him.

"You know where that is."

Nathan nodded once.

"I prayed no one would ever say those words again."

Ward folded the chart closed.

"So where is it?"

Nathan didn't answer immediately.

Instead...

He walked to the bridge window.

When he finally spoke...

His voice was barely above a whisper.

"It isn't on any modern chart."

Storm frowned.
