The exact results of this shopping expedition are up to you. However, during the process, there are a few things that become clear:

The chromatikin's name is Vorel.

The cost of all this is coming out of the 10k fee that Englesworth paid for your rescue - since that fee, in turn, came from the posted reward for the sewer monster combined with the loot from its lair.

Maya gets a simple cloak and a monks outfit, which while not much different than she currently has should be covered by the cloak. "Is there a way into the fountain you speak of through the sewer, or a way into the castle to get to said fountain?"

"Yes, assuming they haven't fixed the gratings."

Maya nods: "Then it's time to get Fierce and Fang unless there's not enough water breathing for all of us."

"I don't know. At worst, they can stay at my place or just head back outside, I guess."

Maya: "Or they can guard or escape route informing us if trouble is coming from behind. Lead the way."

There are no particular problems with recovering your pack or getting the water breathing spell cast.

Mark explains that the duration depends on the number of subjects; you and Vorel would get five hours; if you add your pack in, you'd only have two and a half hours.

It takes about a half hour from then to verify that your target, whatever it may be, is more than three hundred feet below the flooded third level, and then to reach the entrance to the castle.

The grate looks quite solidly built, recently fixed... and more recently cut to shreds. Probably by some form of magic, too; the damage is far too neat and clean for a brute physical attack to have caused it.

"Well, that's new," comments Vorel.

Maya: "Be ready for combat." She enters the grate and continues stealthily on her way.

Oddly enough, the flooded area under the castle seem entirely deserted, save for a few small fish. Perhaps whatever destroyed the grate was breaking out?

And it's not just tunnels down here; it seems like entire sections of dungeon and store rooms were just flooded at some point in the past. You simply don't have time for a thorough exploration, but - though some backtracking proves necessary - some time around the three hour mark you reach the edge of the Eye's range limit. Whoever or whatever it was pointing to is roughly three hundred feet below you. And the rest of your pack is in range above, around a hundred feet up and some distance off to the side.

This section is part of a long horizontal extent of what appears to be natural cave; the water is still here, and any movement sends clouds of muck swirling upwards from the floor.

Through the mental link comes a tentative Hello?

Maya: Who are you, and why are you linked to the eye? Where are you? I am Maya. "I've entered mental contact with our quarry." She will continue trying to find her way as she does. Time is limited after all.
