As Elric clings to Varika's arm, he feels the water pressure intensify, threatening to pull them both under. Suddenly, the current surges forward, carrying them both toward a narrow ledge on the riverbank. Elric's grip tightens as he strains against the water, but it's no use - they're swept over the edge, tumbling into the icy cold water below. Varika's arm goes limp in his grasp, and Elric finds himself alone, clinging to a jagged rock outcropping as the river rushes past him. He looks around, desperate for a handhold, but the rock face is slick with moss and water. The Guardian's roar echoes through the cavern, making it hard to think. A faint glow emanates from deeper in the river, casting an eerie light on the turbulent water. Elric must find a way to reach that light - or risk being pulled under forever.

I struggle against the grip on my ankle, my lungs burning as I'm dragged deeper into the dark depths of the river. The water is rushing past me, threatening to sweep me away at any moment. I can feel the current tugging at my limbs, trying to pull me under. My heart is pounding in my chest as I fight against the water, my arms and legs thrashing wildly. But it's no use - the current is too strong, and I'm being pulled further and further away from the surface.
