Holly pockets everything she sees, figuring she'll find out if the stuff is magical or not later on, however, she'll keep the dagger in her belt now. Thinking to herself, the note and key might mean something to the others far better than her she sneaks back towards the lake.
How deep in to the passageway does Alexander go?
As he heads in to the cave passageway he sees a small faint light in the distance and notices at once that the glowing peace of ore that had sat on the ground just 10 to 15 feet in to the cave is no longer there. The small light in the distance sways back and forth low to the floor as holly walks happy swinging her arms back toward the lake.
Alexander can not see it is holly with the light his eyes have not adjusted to the darkness very well and all he can see is the dim light in the distance moving toward him slowly at a walking pace.
Hearing Yaeths call about keys, Izumi answers him, "I found one awhile ago as has Haru, I will come in a moment."
Izumi begins to shed some of her bags and leaves them by Haru in his charge. As she takes things out she asks Whisp if he'd like to sit this swim out and curl up with the bags. When done, she will have her sword in its scabbard, her spear, and one bag with the key she found and her empty water skin besides her clothes save her boots.
She looks to Haru and asks,"I need that key you showed me, boy. First time we've gotten a possible lock to the keys we've found." As he gives her the key she also asks him to watch her stuff, and that Whisp is there, too.
Ready, Izumi swims out to the middle rock once again.
(Out of Character: Swim check 11+5=16, Climb check 8+5=13 [I'm guessing Yaeth will assist her up]
Meanwhile, Holly reaches the area where everyone is still at, "Hey guys! I found a key, a letter with a bunch of words crossed out..." She pauses for dramatic effect, "And guess what else I found..." She speaks very quickly now, "I found some very large tracks, I think there might be a dragon down here somewhere. I think I may need some real weapons. Anyone got any weapons to spare for me?"

Alexander raises his sword in a one handed stance and keeps the gem in his other hand. He stands in the mouth of the tunnel.
"Um...Hello?" He directs this at the light in the tunnel, hoping to gauge it's intentions.
