Waggly hands, vision wavers, a slow fade in from the side brings us to a murky memory of the slave pen prison denizens.
Near to a point at the start of our adventure, you had been speaking to Shuushar about means of escape. He told you he traveled the Darklake for many years. Additionally, he mentioned that his kind often went insane and that it wasn't friendly to landwalkers. Finally, he mentioned that his family was vile. Some hours later, during the length of time where you had nothing to do but estimate the molecules in the damp stone, you approached him for more information about the geography of the Darklake.
Many assume it is a large lake, landwalker. Shuushar said with a chuckle. It is anything but. A mass of underground rivers, tunnels and canals that connect water-filled caverns and chambers. The waterway stretches over 100 miles across and ceilings that are miles high in some areas and depths deeper than any living thing you know has ever experienced. There are many locks to raise and lower watercraft. My people make their money by guiding people through the area and selling watercraft. The kuo-toa said with a since of genuine gladness at the interest. And yes, it is unfriendly to the unaccompanied landwalker. With a proper guide, however, you would be able to go many places in the Underdark.
Waggly hands, vision wavers, a slow fade in from the side brings us back to reality.
