Apprehension
This dungeon's been nothing but awful to you so far, and so when the woman appears from the water and addresses you, you can't help but instinctively step backwards with a worried look on your face. Clearly upset, the woman gives you a short look of sadness, before diving back under the water. The ripples of her vanishing act spread out across the small pond before crashing against the sides in tiny waves and disappearing.
You turn around and try to decide what to do next.
