Tayla seems to know little of what attacked them, which slightly perturbed Jalna.  Some time during their casual rest, the girls were  roused to sounds of movement coming somewhere within the cave, most likely coming from below the ledge they were perched upon.  The sounds persisted for some time, putting both girls on edge.  Jalna suggested of lighting up a torch, to gain better illumination of the place.  Tayla however fiercely but quietly reminded her not to do something foolish that would give away their position.  Whatever it was, it has either not seen them or it cannot reach them, supporting the hypothesis that the thing must be down below.<br/><br/>They realized that things were going nowhere as no imminent attack came, and only by going down into the cavern can the sisters progress.  And so they proceeded with their plan and climbed down via rope.  Both were still on their toes when they landed below, more so since whatever they heard must very close by.  They then cautiously approached the pool’s edge.  Jalna wanted to have a closer look since it was her idea, but Tayla was against it, and wanted to do the honors.  If there was something lurking within depths of  the pool, her dual blades would be quicker to respond to the threat than Jalna’s cumbrous weapon.  And so Jalna set herself up beside her half-sister, guarding their rear, while Tayla did a visual inspection of the pool and its depths with the limitED lighting they have.<br/><br/><div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">OOC</div><div class="spoiler_body">Perception: Tayla 23; Jalna 16<br/>Stealth: Tayla 17; Jalna 16<br/>They are in the middle of the northwest side of the pool with Jalna standing guard beside Tayla who is examining the waters for anything out of the ordinary or of interest.</div></div>
