The marble architecture leading down the sparkling passage becomes more articulate the further on it goes, from a few wavy lines to a full-on ocean mural, depicting many aquatic Pokemon. The odd sparkling light reflects off of all sides, despite any source nearby... that is soon changed, however, when the passage fans outward to a bright, noisy clearing. The tunnel ends atop a set of stairs leading downward a meter, which itself leads to a marble platform carved into the wall on this side of the chamber. The platform is essentially a stone dock; the rest of the chamber, under the level of that dock, is filled with water. How far down cannot be discerned, but what is certain is that this place was once tall and majestic. The tips of massive stonework buildings peak out of the surface of the water, waves crashing softly against the masonry. The tops of lower buildings form platforms that can be traversed with hearty jumps. Just as well, some buildings poke out even taller, gaining a story of space above the water level. Above the water, the chamber resonates a white-blue reflection of the deep. Lanterns are strung up instead of being bolted to the wall, and the far wall stretches upward at an angle to meet the back wall in a triangle formation. The chamber is actually quite large as far as forward-backward goes, but who knows how far down it goes? |

Chef sighs. "If you really want squid that bad..." He hands over the ball and yanks the Pyen out of Jones's hands. He proceeds back up the stairs, leaving everyone else behind. |

Jones nods firmly, clips the pokeball to his belt and turns to the others. "I'm heading back to the camp to see if that insulated diving suit has come in. Later." |

Stefan sees the reluctance in the transaction. He didn't think it wise to clash with the chef, but he also didn't wish to cause trouble with anyone who shared his sleeping area. Not wishing Chef to be ambushed in the next chamber, he jogs after him. |

Jason suddenly busts out of the wall, splashing down ten feet, headfirst into the water! He appears to have plopped out on one side of the chamber, a little swim away from the big cluster of buildings next to the arch, and a longer swim to the entrance. |

Splashing in the water, Jason glanced around and realized where he was. Back in the Grotto. Of course there was that issue at the entrance to deal with, so he swam towards the shore and back towards the main foyer. |

So far, it's the standard fare; nothing much can be seen, aside from a few Remoraid. No Koffing, though. |

Merchant has Greenchu wait beside him as he breaks apart some of the bait and tosses it in the water, ready for if any Remoraid or other fish take a bite. |

No sooner than it dips in does the bait disappear out of the water... after a brief shuddering down below the water, the consumer surfaces! It's a Magikarp. |

Merchant falters a bit at the pathetic Karp. Well...a pokemon is a pokemon. He tosses a ball at it, wondering if the thing would even notice. [roll]1d20[roll] [result]21&4,1d8,17,21&1d8+17[/result] [result]66&66,1d100,0,66&1d100[/result]-7 |
