Anar figures that the gold holy symbol, once cleaned up, would probably be worth about 50 gold pieces.

Kalen will duck down that southern portion, timing between the waves, to see if it opens into another passage or merely doubles back onto the western pass.

Kalen, proceeding very carefully to avoid an unfortunate fall in the drink, makes a quick foray down the southern passage. He finds that it does indeed merely loop around to connect on the other side. It holds no lurking undead, and doesn't seem deep enough to conceal any underwater tunnels.

Onward to the west, then?

"It just doubles around here, Westward ho once goodman Col is able to stand again."

Col smirks at the perceived jibe, and stands up wobbly, his spear for support. He idly brushes away something that was hopefully just a bit of former lunch.

"Get on w'ya," he glowers, sourly moving westward.

Bael nudges Anar with his elbow. "Lost his sea legs, he has," he jibes quietly as he waits for the others to lead off.

Anar chuckles softly at Bael's joke. "Indeed," he says with a wink. Then nodding at his companions, he once again moves out, headin down the western passage. He does his best to move quietly through the water, keeping his eyes and ears open for any sign of danger.

With the huecuva's threat ended, and Col once more able to stand without retching, the party sets off down the watery western tunnel, more eager than ever to find an escape from their entrapment in these cursed tunnels.

Anar leads the way, with strong Chongo close behind. To everyone's great relief, the tidal surges seem less strong as the party wades into the next large chamber. Here, a large pool of water sloshes with the ebb and flow of the current. The water begins to get deeper as Anar proceeds, and looks to be at least ten feet deep at the center...possibly deeper, as the murky depths are hard to discern from above. It appears that the group will have to swim to cross to the other side.

Just visible at the faint edge of Bael's sunrod's illumination, a passage of worked stone leads on to the west...on the other side of the large pool.

Any special preparations before taking the plunge?

Anar shrugs at the deep water before the group, not really liking the look of the murky depth before them. "I'll go, but perhaps Keoni should take the lead here...I believe he is the strongest swimmer, after all."

Col eyes the water. "If it do be calm, it not be too 'ard. Maybe one swim over and 'ave a look first." He looks around, his brow furrowed. "But if tha' water be less o' a current 'ere, then it do be get'n out some'ere else."

Col shouldn't read too much into the movement of the currents here, stonegod. I just wanted to convey that I wasn't requiring any more balance checks to move around for the moment. There is still a current. And, with the water being very murky, the best way to tell what's going on beneath the surface will be to take a dive, as it were.

So who's first up for a dip, hmmm?
