As Tegan continued to lead the group further into darkness, the smells of rotting flesh and animal stink grew fainter, meaning that they were at least headed in the right direction. Unfortunately, now they were heading deeper into the caverns, and the water was getting deeper and soon the group found that it was nearly impossible to progress onwards without walking through water.

However, soon after they were nearly knee-deep into the cold, black water, Novo abruptly sat up in his seat on the cart next to Sysene, snapping forwards like an attacking snake.

"Stop the cart!" Novo commanded, looking about wildly. He could see nothing other than the other members of the company alongside his cart but could distinctly hear something in the distance, although he didn't know quite what it was yet due to the other prisoners, who were making quite a bit of noise as they splashed through the waters. "Can you hear it?" he asked to no one in particular, straining to catch the faint noise again.

Rowan arched an eyebrow and looked at the raggedy old man before him as if he were mad, unable to hear whatever it was Novo was hearing.
