Entombed Ocean

The Entombed Ocean was the result of a massive accident in a factory processing the ore Telshium. The factory was owned by the Mars Mining Colonies'''.

When the factory was processing Telshium, somehow a leak happened in the core reaction chamber. This produced a blast which spread fire to the manufacturing chamber. As the fire met with Telshium, it caused a chain reaction, where the Telshium emitted a chemical blast shockwave throughout a 400 mile radius, killing each and every one of the 700 member crew of the factory as well as the trade ships and vacationers in the nearby area. But as the Telshium was heated and it met with cold water, it produced a foam that rapidly increased in quantity. The foam covered the entire factory and then spread to cover a huge portion of the ocean. It then solidified, forming a metal like substance. All of this estimatedly happened in under 5 seconds.

In the aftermath, half of the ocean’s surface was entombed in a metal like substance. Divers looking for Umbrium often go underneath this domed ocean to scavenge for minerals.
