I'm going to cross my fingers that this works out, and that our characters will be able to figure out what's going on and take the necessary actions to lessen the disadvantage.
Hopefully the strangeness doesn't happen right away; for with all of us in the water, I think, then we may not ever be able to get out of it..for we may think we are seeing say a nice beach or a forest path and not realize we are still in the water. Just a thought or two from me.
To be fair, we've made some great roleplay progress in the last two weeks. Among other things, we've gotten a good glimpse into Perry's healthy college lifestyle, met a new rock friend who lived a long fulfilling life, saw Lia have a mental breakdown, and Perry yelled at a finch. We're also currently making progress on this "Innocent kobolds working for an evil dragon out of fear" subplot.
