Ow!” they hear.  Cedious manages to hold onto the Decanter and his Lantern as he fumbles with the door.  Black sands becomes impatient and jumps in.  It the rogue’s crossing didn’t attract anything it must be safe he figures.  He begins to swim slowly across.  Taskerdoo calls out to them.“Are we going to the Forest or the X room?  The Forest is over to our left –not straight ahead.”  They hear both of the impatient adventurers curse.  “Make up your mind! Snarls the ½ giant as he now treads water.  He is using Cedious’ lantern as a beacon.  He watches it now move to his left and waits.  This time Cedious is using only the momentum of his pushing off.  Using the water caused a bloody nose.  It could be worse this time.Casting Spider Climb on Vale and Sharshek, they begin to slowly cross.  The walls are very slick and slimy.  Vale slides into the water several times.  Sharshek, carrying the halfling druid nearly does twice.Finally they reach the door and exit.  Black sands is given a rope to climb out.</blockquote>
