"Transmutation for the statues," She answers smoothly, leaning in more to see if she could discern anything in the water. "Enchantment for the water." After a moment she looks over to Jezzika. "I'm going to see if I can feel anything in the water. Try to grab me if I get pulled in." There's a playful glint in her eyes when the words escape her mouth just before she turns back to the water and reaches in to feel around.

"Oh, i'll try."Jezzika said to Svana, make a sly smirk with her mouth.
As you wave your hand in the water, you notice two things, one, there are items in the water, and two, there is a massive hole where a person or robot trash collector could easily swim down - quite possibly the only way out and back to the Darklake, seeing as how this room is a dead end.
The water is icky and murky and a few times you feel like you're touching something gross, and your jerk reflexively. Jezzika thinks you're about to be grabbed by something, and reaches to quickly grab you from whatever you found gross - quickly realizing you're not actually being grabbed.
"Whoop."she says, pretending to stretch. Performance: 8"Ha."And then quickly looks back at the water.
Hidden beneath the dark waters of the fountain are 112 sp, 41 gp, three green-gold bracelets worth 25 gp each, and a drow +1 dagger (the hilt has a spider design)
Ash leads Huey over to the rest of the group and looks around, dropping his hand. She moves to inspect the statues curiously. "Hmm... Old but interesting. Do I know anything about you?"
(Oh fun. A negative mod. All the same for history, religion, and arcana so whatever in any of those she can think of?)

Do you know anything about this?
There's a silence in the whispers and no response.
Seeing the glint of gold out of the corner of his beady eye, Step Step Thud creeps over behind Svana and reaches for the shinies, making his best puppy dog eyes.
Svana chuckles lightly at Jezzika, knowing well she wasn't trying to stretch but was trying to mask an attempt at saving the wizard. Cute."I apologize for the jerking around, Jezzika, this isn't the most... lovely thing to be feeling around in, but..." She begins to pull out the items she feels for and puts them on the basin for the others to take a look. When she believes she has retrieved them all, she cleans herself up, not that it's going to matter much in a few minutes. "Other than these items, there seems to be an exit in this fountain, big enough for all of us, including Duke."
Svana looks down at Step Step Thud and falls for the puppy dog look. "You can have my portion of the coin, SST, but the others get their share."

Ash looks away from the statues to Svana. "Do you intend on swimming down the basin then? We should check the other path first. From when we go to this area? Then if we have no other options, we can do a little swimming."
Ash's nose wrinkles a little at the thought of swimming through the dirty old water.
"Ya know... the more I think about it. The more this shit start'n to feel like some sorta shrine. Would 'xplain why there was a bunch of coin down in that fountain there. Make'n probably a--"She stops, finally noting Svana's fishing and Stomp's puppy dog act. Enkindle sighs and shakes her head, then goes back to studying the overall arrangement of not just the statues, but the room as whole just to confirm her theory.
As some point during the process she adds, "Anyhow.. I ain't ****'n swimming if'n we don't havta. If Iron Lung wants to he can, but maybe we aughta -- I don't ****'n know -- try the other path fer anybody set something off might be a good plan. Like that smart cookie Ash or whatever her name is get'n at."
Step Step Thud graciously accepts coin in exchange for leading the group down the other passageway, scouting for traps and watching for monsters to the best of his ability.
"I'm not fond of the idea of swimming in it, but if it's the only way out, then it's the only way." She shrugs. "If we want to search the other route then let's get to it, I don't want to be here when we've run out of air to breath." She waits for Ree'lyn and SST to lead the way to the next area before following behind.

As you approach this rough-walled cave you hear the sound of pouring water. The water enters through cracks in the 10-foot-high ceiling. Given the rate at which the water flows in, you can easily conclude that the cracks were caused by the tremor, and it’s only a matter of time before the water floods the entire complex. There is a huge black mass writhing in the center of the puddle.
Step Step Thud, as requested, waits outside the room, keeping a lookout for anything approaching.

"These will be shared and split my friend, when we are able to sit and count it all.
Step Step Thud scowls at Quinn, repeating his words mockingly, “Shared and split!” he pauses to spit, “I sit and count it all. I hold on.”

As you approach this rough-walled cave you hear the sound of pouring water. The water enters through cracks in the 10-foot-high ceiling. Given the rate at which the water flows in, you can easily conclude that the cracks were caused by the tremor, and it’s only a matter of time before the water floods the entire complex. There is a huge black mass writhing in the center of the puddle.
OOohhh shiiiiii.
As the group begins towards the other tunnel with Ree'lyn and SST leading the way, Ash will watch from slightly farther back for anything dangerous.
Perception from slightly farther back: 9
Once they spot the writhing mass, Ash immediately does a 180 and walks back to the fountain. "Nope. **** that. Fountain it is."

Step Step Thud whispers to the rest of the party, “Danger. ****’n ooze. Black. Go back?”
As you all approach the fountain room again, the four grey oozes have been released from their stasis and actively engage you all.
"Oh, good heavens!" Glabbagool says, alarmed. "I'll uh. Be over here. Slowly."
