[To be fair, Lance can talk pretty much nonstop as an automatic free action.

But he also listens to all of that, frowning a little in thought. Right, more monsters is a problem, and that's the same problem with exploring the caves around the city; that and the fact that they change. Who's to say the potential system under the lake doesn't?]

If it changes enough, it might kill off the sharks.

[That'd be a side benefit, right?]

I think they may also be able to test the water at the lab, to see if things change, provided they're given samples.

[But he's less sure about that. And okay, one of the wounds is officially done as far as stitches go, and Lance starts on the next one.]

How do you know so much about sinkholes and cave systems anyway? Is there much to salvage from them?

[Just, you know. Wondering.]
