Jessie was roused from a state of semi-meditation - he couldn't seem to drift in as deeply as usual - by yet another knock on his front door. It was several hours since Coline had left... would she have decided to come back?
For the fourth time that day, he called out. "I'm coming!" Who was it this time...?
It was Lorika again, holding a bright lantern in the not-yet-black darkness. She didn't look upset, as such... but her eyes were misted over with worry, and she was biting her bottom lip and wringing her hands. The look on her face was so different to the one she wore in her despair earlier that he didn't even consider she might just need to talk.
"What's wrong?" he asked, expression deathly serious.
"The Overseer... and some of the acolytes... they're all missing," she whispered, eyes darting back and forth in agitation "It's... it's getting so late... it's passed eight... and they still haven't come back... I can't go look for all of them by myself..."
"Where's Panda?" he asked, stepping out and shutting the door behind him "His spells would be useful at a time like this."
"I couldn't rouse him from his trance. Oh, help..." she suddenly reached out and wrapped her fists in the material of his outer robe "Jessie... it's so dark... we'll never be able to find them..."
"I can see perfectly in the dark. Just stay close to me," he prised her hands from him, but allowed her to clutch his arm for reassurance. "Let's go. It may be imperative that we find them as soon as possible."
It was sheer luck that they headed off in the right direction. Jessie's cabin, on the southern shore, was a prime position for travelling east, towards the town, the port and the scene of the unfolding disaster. They'd been walking for around twenty minutes when Jessie picked up on something in the distance...
"There's something up ahead, on the beach," he whispered to his companion.
"What is it?" she whispered back, trying to scrutinise through the night her eyes couldn't penetrate.
"I don't know yet... it..." they were getting closer by the second. Jessie began to mimic her without meaning to, squinting through the darkness to try and force the distant shapes to make sense. After another minute or so of walking, his eye suddenly widened again, and Lorika knew that the sight was not a welcome one from how rigid his body suddenly went... "Ussta yah! Something's terribly wrong...!"
With that, he broke away and sprinted towards the wrecked scene, leaving Lorika to hobble after him. "Jessie - wait! Hold on! I'm coming!"
((Hafta go eat, be back ina few))

"Hrk! Ack!" Bapp gasped for air as he coughed up loads of seawater.
Pushing himself up to a sitting position, he examined his surroundings.
"A cave? How far did I drift?"
It appeared he was below sea level, and apart from some weird, glowing lights in the water, it would've been totally dark.
It took awhile for Bapp's eyes to adjust.
"My hat and glasses, plus my cloak..." He looked around but couldn't find them.
Ah, that bundle of seaweed that hit me while I was underwater...
It drifted off with them...
I hope it reached the shore somewhere.
Turning around, he looked into the darkness of the cave.
"Maybe this leads somewhere." Making sure his scythe was still strapped to his back despite everything else being washed off, he walked into the darkness.
(( Escape successful! ))
