"You all go separately"

What? How are we supposed to complete whatever mission it is on our own in so little time?

All i had was a rusty key that opens merlin knows what? And hopefully not to something even more dangerous,

Ascian went in first giving me a wink before diving head first into the water,

I wasn't scared for him he would make it out even though sometimes his own remarks gets him in trouble he was a smart boy,

The other boy who was standing to my right was panicking, asking coach about "how the hell am i supposed to stay under the water for longer than 2 minutes?" I gathered that he was as cowardly as a no-mag from that question,

Ascian came back 7 minutes before the timer ran out, making him the first person to stay within the time limit,

"Jacob your next" said mason walking to the starting point,

So that was his name,

As he was walking to the ledge he was muttering nonsense to himself, i couldn't hear what he was saying but before he could even step into the water something happened to his nose, it was.. well gone,

He started chocking and sucking in air that didn't seem to make him calm down..jumping in the water at the start of the timer only to jump back up laughing and shouting, disappearing into the water and coming up 2 minutes before the timer ended,

Hmmm not bad for a coward,

"Yo Lara your up" I didn't bother correcting her because ever since the start she keeps using this name for me, and i didn't wanna give her the satisfaction of knowing it annoys me,

I held on to my key and waited for the timer to start, throwing myself into the cold water and muttered a charm,

A bubble came around my head and gave me the air i so desperately needed, opening my eyes i could now see clearly into the dark waters of the lake,

I swam as quickly as i could to the bottom of the lake, looking for signs of movement, now the task i knew about was to get my own Hippocampus, which was either red or blue, i placed my key under the material of my sleeve keeping it between my skin and the wetsuit,

Coming to the bottom i saw a bunch of small houses that were connected to each other, each house had a flaw, had it been a broken wall, a fallen door or a collapsed roof,

Wow did the Hippocampuses do this?

I turned my head towards a small sound that cane from behind me, making bubbles rise, i swam over to that noise and saw what looks like a couple of cells, inside each one was a..

A bloody Muskrill!

I never thought I'd see one in real life ,they were extinct how in salazar's name do they have three in here?!

They look very mesmerizing, all three in different colors, one which was a bright glowing white watching me with its light blue eyes,

Each one the size of an owl, and a glow that illuminated the space, i flouted over to a note i found laying by my name, it said:

The truth will set you free,
But first it will piss you off,

What is that supposed to mean?

"Kind child..please open this door..i will help you on your quest" a raspy voice sounded from behind me,

The three Muskrills were now swimming all around their cages desperately, looking at me like i was their savior,
