I'm sure you have a point to make but I don't get it.

It's a cheap H.P. Lovecraft joke.

The Metals Company will be dredging the seafloor in the same region where Cthulhu lies dreaming until the stars are right.

If I find some time, I may have to write a spiritual sequel that involves the Metals Company hoovering up those rare earth nodules, unwittingly breaking the protective barrier that keeps an undersea horror confined to a safe area away from everything else.

The trick would be doing that so it doesn't end up reading like a bad Godzilla pastiche.
