[QUOTE="Jemal, post: 4289268, member: 9026"] The group moves forwards, Carl and Darius flying above while the rest walk the path. It is slow going through the foot deep water, and having to find their footing on the slippery rock path, but they keep going. After several minutes of walking, Rhokkan suddenly stops, spinning around as he sinks rapidly. He manages to grab onto the rock and pull himself back up, though he's now soaked. Glancing around, you realize belatedly that the pathway has dissapeared ahead of you and now heads to the left. Shaking himself off a bit, the Troll continues along the path with the rest following, now keeping an eye on the ground ahead of him. After several more turns, and nearly an hours worth of travel, you're finding it hard to remember which direction you're going in. That's when Darius and Ryash notice the disturbancs. Darius notices a dark shape moving through the water under him, just in time to see a tentacle reaching out of the water. It coils around him painfully, threatening to drag him under! Ryash sees that tentacle, as well as noticing another coming from the other side, heading straight for the troll and bashing him on the side of the head.
