[So Ed and co. what bad decision are you starting off with first?]

[ First? Hauling out the diving suits and setting them next to the lake.

Can't go deep lake diving without suits ]

[Pretty much that, yeah--and checking to make sure they all have. Y'know. Air.]

Okay, so I remember where the drain is at down below from before, so I can take us right there. As a heads up, it seems to remove magical powers... so be ready for that.

Yeah, I remember you saying that.

[ And- there's the last one out, so just time to head in for the last piece of equipment. ]

I'll be right back.

[Eyeing the diving suit.]

So it's the same idea as the door inside the cliffs.

[Rook knew this was happening soon, he just wasn't sure of exactly when. So while he made sure to give his teammates a vague "heads up we're planning to check something out soon," that was about the extent of it.

So since he was en route to a routine visit to Ometotchtli when he ran into some of his fellow explorers, he's currently sending his bird off with a message back to Amalthea to give his team a proper heads up as to his whereabouts while Ochre sets that up.]

Hmmm ... only magic?

Alright.

[Ed sets his Caretaker knife and Gyarados's pokeball on the ground for a moment to stretch. It's important to limber up before a swim.]

We've got a good balance of physical strengths right now, so I'm sure it'll be fine.

[ Coming out of the dorm with his trusty chair slung over his shoulder ]

I guess?

Either way, gotta check it out.

As near as I can tell. It resonates on a magical frequency, and drained mine.

So... that's why we're using tech. It's a lot harder to magically 'drain' like that.

[ He reemerges with his chair, as if that's a surprise to anyone. ]

Think this is everyone.

Mmn. Which makes it time for us to suit up, right?

[Which means time to change!]

Then, hopefully it won't give someone like me any trouble!

How close did you get last time?

The door started making it colder and colder and magic didn't work to make it warmer, so I guess it's the same idea.

Close enough to touch it and find that riddle on it...

The answer to which was 'a drain,' so. Not the most useful thing in the world.

The answer was "a drain..."

That sounds familiar. [Like a certain disc.]

Right. So that's why this time the plan is to unplug it with a dragon and see what happens after.

[ Once he's changed- ]

I think we're ready ta head out, unless you can think of something we're forgetting.

So everybody left notes in case we all die, right?

Ed, what if we just- drain the lake?

All that water has to go somewhere--so I wanna see where.

Huh. Yeah, that sounds like what Ed said he ran into.

[Adjusting his own gear to make sure it's all on properly.]

I think we've got pretty much everything we need.

[Hopefully this won't end up like a certain heart he's been in. Draining water, checking out what was down there ... Rook shakes his head, preferring not to ... think about that right now.

At least if they fuck up, they won't be ruining somebody from the inside. So there's at least that that has him a little less worried. Everyone here knows there are probably risks, and are willing to take them. This isn't the same as a heartgame.]

And if you need to call it back, you can just use that ... ball, right? Those Pokemon things are pretty amazing.

Hopefully. We can do something.

Heeeeeeey now, let's not be so pessimistic!

My team knew I was coming along, though. Whenever everybody was ready. Sunny will let them know just fine, she's a great courier bird!
