Tropicalia/Island/Swim to leeward

As you swim into the shelter of the bay, a skiff descends off the side of the vessel. The skiff approaches you, much faster than you can swim towards it.

Onboard, you can make out three figures. One, standing tall, looks like a guide of some sort. A halo of white light appears to float around the figure's head. The other two figures, sitting down, look like dark spheres, rather than recognizable bodies. Ambient light slips into the spheres, while sparks of green light dance around the edges. The two dark spheres appear to communicate with each other, their patterns modulating in harmony.

• Swim up to the skiff.
• Swim back to shore.
• Swim sideways from the skiff.

Tropicalia is a magical land of mystery, craft, romance, and more...
