First sign probably means 'widening the gap'. I think she's saying it would be too heavy to dig through all the fish.

Check the walls and ceiling for an alternate exit.

You're fully submerged in the most disgusting substance you can imagine. Your nose has shut down. Uneven slime washes over you. The temperature varies- most of it is lukewarm, but icy cold or uncomfortably warm bubbles wash around you. You do your best to keep your eyes closed.

Something glows far beneath.

Well, if you can't tell us where Reno is, at least tell us how to get out of this... fishy situation.
You could tell us what is going on as well. Nothing that we have experienced here is natural. There are ghosts, undead things, magic liquids... And this guy that likes to eat rotten fish and is afraid of "SHE", whoever that is.

There was a secret escape route through the royal crypt. A sarcophagus led to a ladder, which led to a ledge above some tainted water that Eth and Thorne fell into. There was a passage further along the ledge, where Reno went. We wish to go to that passage, or to the end of the route where it hits the surface.

We would like to get to the exit of this place, this to the outside, to the surface, where we can see the sky and rest on grass, or at least please get us to the place from where we fell from, not to far from here, on the cliff above a pond where a royal door lies. If you need to get real technical about it, solid ground on that cliff so that we won't fall back down to the pond below.

If you're granting wishes, honestly, if you could change the past, that would be really great. Depending on how far back, from before the lizard attack, like... yesterday morning maybe? That would be really great. If you can't go even that far back, I will gladly go back in time a few hours, or however much time approximately it was from when we were with Reno last.

You know what, just give me a ring that can displace me in time and space, to where and when I was at specific times I would like, but I'll still have the ring on me when I go back in time so I can still use it to find the perfect time to step off.

Carefully pick the lantern up by the handle. Make sure to not let it touch any of the fish, lest you risk having to go through that whole disgusting delve again.

Check that Thorne is okay and ask what happened from her perspective. Then check on Spots. Just how bloated with fish is he by now? Gonna have to get him to stop gorging before his guts burst. Try telling him that if he keeps eating like this his stomach is gonna rupture and he'll die. Even if it wouldn't, staying here means bad things'll catch up with him soon. We all gotta keep moving. He can grab some fish to bring with.

Hmm, are any of these fish edible? Could get a snack if any smell fresh.

Is there another door, or is this a dead end? Well, if that vision had any relation to reality we just dispersed some weird fish ghost thing attached to this lantern.

If this is a dead end then knock on the door first to try to confirm the basin monster is gone. It would be provoked by the noise, wouldn't it? Then we can proceed and explore another direction.

We sure hecked the place up, didn't we.

Well, provided that all of this was just one big hallucination or something, I guess ... we should see what's up with that door.

It's just the stone pedestal the bowl was on before. It's unremarkable.

The door seems in order, except for the strange liquid trailing up to the square symbol. Though you could've sworn that symbol used to be different...

Þ: "Eth, you didn't see it, but there was this... thing living inside the bowl. I think it tried to eat you. It stepped out and looked like a menagerie of twisted up dead bodies. I'm not sure we stand a chance against it without our blades."

>liquid trailing up

Does that look at all like what we'd mixed in the bowl?

If so, let's be very cautious about opening that door, even if it's the only other way out -- this might all be a feverdream of sorts from whatever is going on down in this pit, but still.

SOMETHING happened, and we've got the really cool scratches to prove it to the princess once we rescue her.

Oh, also, ask Thorn if she's seen anything of either of our charges.

Okay, from the "heart map" we saw earlier... square was attached to a vein that was cut off from the heart. Might be a way out?

Is there anything else we could even do?

I think we can do anything WITH our blades. We are not prepared to deal with this. But we don't have much of a choice. We have to push onward.
