As Merrin swam towards the opening in the tunnel wall, the water rushed past her injured ankle, causing a sharp pain that made her grit her teeth. She managed to squeeze through the narrow opening and found herself in a small chamber filled with the sound of rushing water. The Guardian's roar echoed off the walls, making it difficult for her to pinpoint its location. Varikka's voice called out from the rubble, "Merrin, I'm trying to climb over this slab, but it's too unstable! If you can find another way out, I need you to hurry!" Merrin quickly scanned the chamber and spotted a small ledge on the opposite side, partially hidden by the rushing water. She knew she had to act fast, as the Guardian was getting closer with every passing moment. Varikka's voice took on a note of desperation, "Merrin, please! You have to find a way out, I'm not strong enough to hold on much longer!"
Merrin: I call back to Varikka, "I see the ledge! Hold on, I'm coming!"
