It doesn't take long for the elf's keen vision to spot the tunnel Keoni spoke of. Swimming hard, Kalen arrows through the water toward the opening.The tides in the pool are a little rough, so Kalen finds forward progress somewhat troublesome. Still, he resolutely presses on. After Kalen has swum forward a bit more than 30 feet, he sees that the tunnel opens up into a larger body of water once more, about 40 more feet ahead (the tunnel is about 70 feet long total). By this point, the gray elf's air is beginning to run out, as well. He must decide whether to press on, or turn back.OOC: For previous forays into pools, I haven't bothered with Swim checks, per the RAW. This time, however, I did. I won't reproduce the die rolls here unless asked, but Kalen has been under water for 12 rounds (half the time he can hold his breath).  Of those twelve rounds, he made successful DC 15 Swim checks on exactly six of them (for 7.5' forward progress each time...12 feet to the bottom of the pool, then 33 feet into the tunnel), and failed the other half (for no progress). If you have any questions about this, feel free to ask.</blockquote>
