"How useful. I wish I had that talent."

"I can teach you to use my magic, though that might not be useful in the short term."

"Perhaps when the immediate threat is dealt with."

"Certainly!"

Now, on to plotting? Does the Keres have any ideas for breaking and entering in some unconventional manner? (It's possible since the Keres' powers are less magic they might circumvent anti-magic protections, too...)

The dungeon is almost certainly not dimensionally congruent with this city. There's one known entrance area, and supposedly a puzzle you need nine puzzle cubes for. There's three entrances, two of them certainly false, and none of them are bypassable without the puzzle cubes. Possibly the river also extends into some portion of the dungeon, but the water's enchanted and entirely fills its passage at at least a few points.

She can reliably point them to the true entrance, and might be able to bypass the lock. She has access to hydrokinetics, and ways to amplify their power. Depending on the nature of the enchantment, she might also be able to turn the river into an access point.

Seems to mostly just make creatures fall asleep, but it's more persistent than similar enchantments.

She can try damming the river and letting the water drain away.

"That seems like a hilariously simple fix."

"It may be the river doesn't actually enter the dungeon. Or the riverbed is enchanted."

"Still, it'll be a useful place to start."

The tiefling, who introduced herself as Elatra when introductions happened in a margin not shown here, takes them to the river.

And the Keres spins through a series of ghosts and, arriving at a combination with a high probability of success, halts the river's flow.

The river: is halted, and slowly drains away!

Does the enchantment disappear with the water? Does anything else take its place?

The enchantment seems to have mostly disappeared, though they probably shouldn't touch the mud with bare skin. Nothing else seems to be rising up yet.

"The way seems to be clear now, so far as I can tell."

"Good! Shall we see if this is our ticket in?"

"I think so. If the waters will remain held?"

"I can keep them back."

Onward! Hisame takes the very bouncy lead.

Elatra and the others follow.

The passage very quickly darkens to 'pitch black.'

Hardly an obstacle to her.

Eliana makes a thin cut, the blood trailing off into a wreath of flame.
