After passing through a vast forest with living trees that attacked them from beginning to end, they finally arrived at the lake where the snake was asleep.
"Mirian, stay up here. If anyone shows up, put on a show for them," Dmitry said.
"Just go already. If the four guardians are as strong as Kame says, we'll be the first to survive in the demonic realm," Mirian replied.
Mirian created an ice throne facing the lake.
"You've got a woman who really suits you," Kame said.
Kame looked at the ice throne, finding it completely over-the-top for the current situation.
"If you weren't a spirit, I'd kill you," Mirian said.
"Sorry, Dmitry," Kame said.
"Don't worry, we're not in a relationship yet. Let's just find your friend," Dmitry said.
Dmitry used Amelia's gift, diving into the lake and altering his body to grow gills. He stood still, looking around. All he could see were muddy walls and a dark bottom.
