Assess the situation.

With the initial explosion of water settled, you can make out a vague, dripping shape having arose from the center of the lake. Though your attention is quickly stolen by the squeal of Amara being pulled through the water, and lifted upwards by what appears to be a translucent blue tendril, and then another. Soon, her body is grappled tight by writhing water around her torso and between her legs. As the fluid moves slowly like slithering snakes, Amara lets out a **** whimper as it touches upon a very sensitive part of her body at present, and it does so in a frustratingly sensual way. Her face is radiantly red, and she hangs her lips agape as she pants for relief that cannot come.

It's a sea monster! That's your first thought anyway, though upon further inspection, the body doesn't seem as tangible as that. The tentacles grappling Amara and moving towards others nearby allow light to pass through, as if they themselves are made of water, and while you initially thought the body was still emerging, it seems the flowing waves are coming from a being consisting purely of water. All in all, it looks to be about the size of a large elephant, so not as much of a behemoth as it seemed when first crashing forth from the surface, though something needs to be done fast. You and your party are rather **** at the moment after all.

"Freeze Wave!" you hear from ahead. Suddenly, the side of the watery beast hardens, as do two of its tendrils, in a flash freeze of magic from somebody magically standing atop the water nearby. It's Vivi--glistening pale skin, flowing white hair, hand out with sparkling glitter snowing from her fingertips as her spell has landed successfully. Then with her feet remaining atop the surface like a cute and sexy messiah, she brings an arm over her bust, and shrinks nervously. "That's what you get for catching me like this! N-Now I'm f-freezing cold..."

Meanwhile, however, multiple other girls are grappled by unknown foes--the tendrils of the beast, though beneath the water, so impossible to see. Niki is dragged, and then Eva too. Yin and Peony are dragged after that, followed by both bodies of Sen-nu. Fang is next, and then Lalarin and Lynx. The water is certainly the most dangerous place to be at the moment, though it's also where your allies are being held! Thankfully not under the surface, but they're still in quite the predicament. Each are being grappled from two to four thin, wriggling, translucent tentacles, suspending them in the air. The only ones who remain below are you, Mistress Dajy, Yin, Snow, Alice, Delphi, Luna, Laira, Stax, Linzeri, Mina, and Rose.

"It isn't finished yet," says Dajy before clenching her teeth. She then leaps into the air. Unlike other succubi you've seen with tiny wings on their backs, the wide span of her own allows at least a temporarily flight--more like a glide--as she comes down towards what could be described as the monster's head.

Nyllia sprints past you, though in the other direction. She's going for her sword. "That is the largest water elemental I have yet seen! I wonder how long it was dormant beneath Crystal Lake."

Yin screams out in surprise, but she instantly teleports in response, putting a plume of black smoke right in your face along with her arrival. She grabs your arm in panic, looking for aid, in which you abide. You wrap an arm around her midsection and pull her in as close as possible. She gives a little squeak, conflicted between fear and joy as she squirms tightly in your grasp--erection squeezed up against her thighs.

"Noo~!" Niki shouts. Her eyes widen as the flowing tentacles glide over the tips of her breasts in a sensual message, whether or not the beast even knows of her weakness. Her legs twitch and shiver as she attempts to squirm, though her face flushes with burning colour as she's teased over the lips of her pussy simultaneously.

"Hang... in there, Niki!" Eva says, though her mouth is immediately plugged by one of the tendrils entering her mouth. She's tilted back, and her legs are soon parted, causing her eyes to roll back--helpless, unable to prevent anyone from seeing.

"Is this normal for a water elemental?" you ask as you depart the water with Yin to grab your sword.

"Not really," she replies, sounding uncertain. "Though it is not unusual to find one in a place such as this. How it it is acting and what it is capable of doing is not what I am used to seeing, however."

Higher than the rest, a certain high succubus has been restrained. It's taken multiple tendrils to do so, but Dajy hangs upside down in a rather undignified manner. "Ahh~, well I've had worse," she says aloud with a twisted smile on her face. "But I've gotten myself in quite the predicament. Ooh~!"

"What do we do?" Laira says, hustling up to you with an armful of titties--still covering up despite everything.

Linzeri gives a full-palm slap to the blacksmith's backside as she walks past her, forcing out a moan of surprise, though paying no mind as she instead looks to you. "Foolish Dajy. She never thinks before she acts."

Fang, also upside down, is swung about with a wide smile across her face. As she's moved past Dajy, she's seen cackling to herself. It seems that perhaps she doesn't need to be rescued from anything. Peony is the only one not really reacting. She doesn't seem pleased to be restrained, though she has no place to be stimulated, or at least not in a way that the elemental can provide. The remaining girls, however, offer an orchestra of gasping moans and pleads for rescue.

Stax looks up to you from below, nearly blocked from view by the shadow of your erection overhead. She plants her hands on her hips--wider than her pointed ears protrude outward--and her chest heaves up and down as she bounces up onto her tippy toes. "Well, Demon King? Let's save them!" Though she then grins. "Though by that big thing hanging up there, maybe you'd rather watch, huh?"

You think. "Delphi! Does your shrinking powder work on just anything or anyone?"

The naked fairy flutters down. "Not something without a mouth or nose or anything."

Your eyes turn back to Rose and Mina, the only two who only began to undress. They're still armed and armoured, though understandably not wanting to leap into the lake without a plan. Blades might not be the solution anyhow.

"Water elements," you begin. "I don't know anything about them really. Do they feel anything at all? Pain, sadness, joy? Like what are they?"

Vivi, scrambling away now, seems hesitant to use her magic a second time. With the ice mostly melted, she could repeat the same spell to freeze half of it again, but now it'd be putting her allies in danger. "Usually they don't have so much reach!" she answers as she hustles in your direction. "But if this is a water elemental... no. They don't feel anything at all. They're mindless embodiments of their own element."

"Perhaps it's only defending the lake," suggests Luna.
