Forget about trying and stealthy thing. I swim like a rock. I am better of just walking on the bottom when i sink there he says smiling
Asher struggles the last time he's tried to communicate with allies while underwater, listening to their strange, echoed voices through the thick fluid.
'I don't think I've ever done it with no one drowning beside me...'
He nods at Angus. "It's worth trying... Any advantage you can get in war, you take."
He then follows his allies down to the bottom.
After an hour walking on the bottom of the ocean, you get a better idea of the layout with reminds you of the map you recovered from the Il Dracon de Mere, coming into view are three shipwrecks and atop the closest wreck to you is a Tiefling woman who is a striking sunkissed woman of middling years but in rude health, white teeth, in outdoor gear with a good natured can-do attitude.

She sees Angus and says, "Salve, my elfen friend, what pray tell are you doing here? My instructions were only Kranto was to come down here unless I explicitly said so. We are doing very volatile work and meddling can CAUSE a le desastre!"
please forgive me, but i was instructed to report the following information and to provide additional security. Up top a new ship has arrived in the area. It is from Flint, and they tried to assault our Chryssiliri warship last night but Captain Glassmaker was able to fend them off. The ship is damaged and the Captain will need eventually to sail to Pezerillo and get her patched up after the mission is over. I was send to warn you and reinforce security with these guys in case that enemy ship send an underwater crew. On the way down Great Sharks attacked us, maybe there were controlled or charmed but we made it trough.
Duvall says, "Quit horsing around elf. Your lies are easily crystal clear. I have no idea who Captain Glassmaker is because he is not the captain of my ship and there aren't any elves aboard my vessel. I see that there are now three vessels where there were four earlier this morning, one is no doubt going back to Pezarillo. My men and I are working on an extremely volatile project and any interference can lead to disaster. Sorry to be curt but state your business!"
Asher will continue to creep forward as well as the terrain will conceal him, trying to circle around the teifling and maybe catch her in a flank.

he is the captain of the large Chryssiliri warship and is returning hom to lick his wounds. We are the RHC and we have come to stop you from opening the Seal to the Elemental plane of Water. Resistance if Futile, Surrender and you will be taken in peacfully. Resist and face the consequences. We have controle of those 3 ships above us. There is no where for you to take the seal. he says drawing his weapon
RHC !!! Put your Hands up in the Air And try nothing Fishy !!!
Asher Loads another Dry Load shot from his position of stealth and waits for things to go south.
The tiefling woman says, a bit startled by Falko's voicing coming from nowhere, "RHC, you people do know we aren't even in Risur, and you have no jurisdiction in Ber. I suggest you put your weapons down and we can talk things through."
The tiefling woman says, "I beseech you to stay away from the seal. You do not know what you are doing. If you break the seal it can cause a disaster!"
Falko moves toward the seal and jumps down the ten feet closer to it and
Finona sees him and unleashes three magic missiles at him

John and Angus
Johnathan moves forward toward the seal 15 feet and then he sees it but before hand he lifts his hand up and then down unleashing a blizzard of meteorites from the sky on to the woman reflex as she takes the whole onslaught.
defined by the oceans to its either sides, lies ahead of you, but the
masses of people framed by the sea are blinded by high walls and dark
paintings, and they cannot perceive the shifting tides outside.
“Inside now. Rains streak glass along this hall of portraits. A face looks
down at you, canvas and frame and watercolor dyes. And down the
center of the face, a schism appears, like a river trying to flow two ways
at once. Paint runs and flows free of its borders, leaving one face on the
canvas, and another struggling, bereft of form, to find a home or else swirl
away and die."
Angus swims and is able close in on the dwarf and attack but misses his attack with his longsword.
Fop 1 works on the seal.
Fop 2 double moves.
Falko + Asher
Continuing with Falko's suggestion that following the lowering terrain will lead to the bubble where apparently there is a seal, and confident that the allies behind him can deal with the teifling woman, Asher continues forward until he reaches air.
Finona starts to cast a spell.
Cretien
Cretien tries to double move towards the woman, stopping at a distance of 5ft if he can even get that far.
Johnathan will cast Magic Missile on the man tampering with the seal.
Dwarf 1 attacks Angus with his axe and misses his attack.
Dwarf 2 swims out of the hull of the ship.
The dead octopus floats over to the seal and then disturbs what must be a warding circle that the FOp is working on and... The golden seal flashes brightly, then it clatters to the ground. A wave of pain
courses through your body as though something were trying to rip you apart
from the inside. Where the seal had been, a hole in the rock pours out water
and fishlike creatures. Some of the water seems different from the rest, visible
because of it’s pure of grit and dust. The massive being lashes out with tentacles
made of pure water.
A deep thrum of movement sounds from every direction as the whole sea
around you comes alive. Rocks tear free from the sea bed and begin to spiral in a
huge arc around the dig site, the makings of a titanic and destructive whirlpool

One of the Fops says, "Mavishan creatures have entered our realm, we need to close the Seal!!!!"
Jon
"We both want the seal closed, let's close it!" Johnathan shouts(?). And swims towards the Fops.
Swallowing his pride, Angus starts to walk over to the Seal past the dwarf.
Will Save Fop 1 fail, Will Save Fop 2 the two fops are infused with some sort of energy and scream they seem inable to do many tasks.
Fop 1 tries working on the Seal Spellcraft pass
Fop 2 tries working on the Seal Spellcraft fail
The fop says, "If any of you are magically inclined please get closer and lend us a hand!!!!"
Falko
The fop says, "Get closer, Did you guys kill an octopus per chance, even?"
"We fought several beasts to get here."
"I don't see... what..what are you trying to do to close the seal?"
