DUNGEON LOG: KEYSTONE REEF
Expedition day dawns, as usual, with an android mass text -
Okay, so, this time we're aiming to go out and stabilize the Fissure in the reef you can see up a little to the north of here. The waters are usually pretty calm this time of year, so if you can swim instead of needing to take a boat, that'd be a great help. We only have a few of them.
Also, I know that last time was a mess, so I'm just gonna say this: If you need to get out for any reason, just send us a message and a picture of your location. We'll get a drone out to you as soon as we can and bring you home. No questions asked.
( ﾟ▽ﾟ)/ Stay safe out there! When you're ready to go, meet us down at the beach. The rocky, sparkly one, not the sandy one.
Unlike previous expeditions, this time there's no rooftop sendoff - instead, as Charm noted, the tables are set up on Glitterstone beach, along with a series of boats pulled up on the sand. Two rowboats that could maybe sit six people but probably better suited for four, a trio of inflatable rafts (with motors attached to the back, all mismatched) of about the same size, a two-person dinghy and a long canoe that could hold two or three.
Besides the little fleet, there's also the usual bagged lunches (in gallon ziplocs this time, and other such watertight containers), and every boat is equipped with a large number of those chepa dollar-store water bottles, all with their airtight store seals. There's also a selection of life vests and other floatation thingies in a box next to the table. Strange hovers over the setup, checking watertightness of a handful of first aid kits with a spritzer and a bucket to submerge things in. They give a little wave to anyone passing by headed to the boats.
For those who opt instead to swim, everything seems perfectly normal until you reach the border of the Fissure... When, very suddenly, it isn't.

....There's a lot that's unnatural here. My powers may have made them moreso.

I've been using it to explore into these wrecks. [ As much as a blind person can explore them lol. ]

...Friends. Maybe.

Friends? I don't think you're going to be finding those inside shipwrecks, I'm afraid.

Well, I'll certainly help out anybody I meet down here. [ As long as they don't freak out about Zel, that is. ] Hopefully they'll be able to breathe down here as well, though, or I don't know how much help I'll be.
Don't be morbid. [ The spider's voice is a deep, masculine baritone. Welp, he talks. ]

Probably for the best. I bet he'd have eight fins.

It works well enough for this.

I'm not sure how things are in other worlds, but you need to be strong in mine. Or weak. If you're weak, you can get overlooked. Anything past that, you need to be strong or else you'll die.

....You're not going to breathe a word of it to anybody else. Right?
