It moves easily in the water as it keeps itself constantly neutrally buoyant. Between the two of them, they maneuver it into the outflow pipe and back out into the main chamber where Hendrick awaits. As they leave the water it is more of a struggle to lift but Midian's magical strength gives him the leverage to raise it. With one person acting as a guide and the other lifting you find it reasonably manageable. Even after leaving the water the crystal continues to drip water at a steady rate. Hendrick watches through the glass as you make your way back to the chamber. He looks immensely relieved at your return. "You did it! Wonderful! I was getting nervous waiting here, and when those things came through the opening... well I'm glad you lived. I don't like being alone with these others... you can hear whispers from them." He jerks a shaky thumb at the tendrils sifting the pools of water around you. You explain that you are going to seek the other crystals as well. He frowns and rubs his face. "All of them? I guess so, if we have to, though I'd rather leave this place and never come back. The thing is, if you take out the wrong ones too early it might be bad. The air shard is the closest but if we remove it the air here could go bad while we're retrieving the others. The fire one opposes the water element and is at the far end of the ship, along with the earth shard. I guess they wanted to keep opposite elements as far away from each other as they could for whatever reason. The earth shard might be the safest bet. It's near the forward armored section, low down in the bowels of the ship."</blockquote>
