As he gets closer to it however, something is wrong. He swears that this is the place that he left it, but it is nowhere to be found. In a frenzy he runs around accosting the Eloi and trying to find out what they have done with it. After a while, he calms down and sleeps. In the morning, he assumes that they must have moved it beneath the Sphinx statue as they aren’t strong enough to have moved it far and with a rock he hits at the pedestal, finding it to be hollow. The Eloi are very scared by his actions, and the Time Traveller eventually stops, reasoning that it would be better to be calm for a few days to better integrate into their society while he finds out more. As some days go by, he asks more questions about the Eloi and their strange world. They wear clothes, yet no one seems to make them, The strange vents seem to produce warm air, and there are very deep wells all over the place.

He wakes up one morning and sees some white ghost-like figures and speculates that they are ghosts. But he was soon proven wrong, when he came face to face with one of these white creatures before it dashed out of sight down one of the wells. He soon concludes that these creatures, Morlocks, must too have descended from humans and endeavours to find out more about them.
