"Nope."  He lifts his nearly-flat pouch and lets it fall against his hip -- with barely a sound.

In reply to Aldous Hack (msg # 232):

Apart from her tiny staff, Aine has very little. Rations, basics and a wineskin in her webbing sums it up.
No bag even...

Anything of interest in the water?

In reply to Thorg (msg # 234):

The water gets to be about a foot deep, and is lapping at the second step up to the door.
Halfway in, Throg notices something on the floor, something bulky that gives a little.

He will use the butt end of his spear to move it closer to the edge of the water...

Whatever it is is both heavy and wedged in good.

In reply to Aine Walsh (msg # 233):

"I can part the waters, but I will need to rest more after I do. it will drain me further..."

"Hol' on, li'l one, le's see whut we c'n do first."  Aldous puts his lantern carefully down on the dry part
 of the floor, then wades in alongside Thorg to examine what he's poking at.

In reply to Aldous Hack (msg # 239):

Thorg did NOT wade in, he just used his spear to poke around...

"Won't learn nothin' that way."  Aldous continues to wade into the water, keeping to the side so the
light from his lantern shines on whatever Thorg was poking.

He reverses the Spear so that if anything attacks Aldous, he can respond with the point.

Sven comes closer to Thorg, since he has a long weapon, suited for prodding.
"Maybe it's a drain-hole cover, in the floor..."

Nana, curious, follows her brother. She stays out of their light however, so they can see...

No, feels like a bag or body... and maybe heavy, tied down or stuck.

Knife ready, left hand free, Aldous wades close to the object, still approaching
 from the side so as to keep as much light
 as possible where he's looking.

In reply to Aldous Hack (msg # 246):

Wine holds her light high.

In reply to Aine Walsh (msg # 247):

The water is murky. But Adouls can feel a body, man sizzed and furry, with some straps...

"Let's heave it out, into sight!"
Sven approaches to help with the endeavor.

"Ack!"
Nana steps back a bit, getting out of their way.

In reply to Nana Yurick (msg # 250):

Aine also stays well back...

Aldous takes a good grip on the straps and starts backing toward the shallower water,
 where Aine and Thorg wait.

The ling you are pulling weighs as much as you, and seems to be stuck in something.

As it breaks the water,
you can see that it is man sized, but covered in wet, matted fur.

In reply to Svendegard Yurick (msg # 255):

There is a horrid gurgling asyou pull it free, and the water bubbles.  The body , wearing a leather backpack and swordbelt, has legs crushed in midthigh by a heavy metal grate that appears to have buckled slightly around the left leg, but the spaces in the grate seem to be two narrow for its foot or knee to have slipped through
