This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
The dragon does indeed rear her scaly head from the water's surface, and is immediately pummeled by Lana and GB's prepared attacks, which seem to knock her senseless for the briefest of moments...but then, in an act of desperation, she exhales her stream of acid once more, aiming straight for GB!
(GB must make a DC 14 Dexterity saving throw, taking 46 acid damage on a failed save, or half as much damage on a successful one)
The acid catches the aaracokra wizard in the wing and neck, causing searing pain and the loss of consciousness.
GB passes out and falls into the water with a muted splash, near the room’s exit. Lana is closest.
The dragon splashes down into the water and swims a little to the north and east.
// Everyone can take their turns. Map is updated if you want to check your movement. The dragon is in the water, Aregarak is swimming to shore, Bel is just at the shore, and Lana is traveling north towards where GB dropped from the sky. On GB’s turn, he will be carried 15 feet east out into the water due to the current. //
Bel hears the squeak of GB being injured and turns to see him fall into the water. “Aregarak, can you grab him?” He yells out as he prepares to dive back into the water if need be.

Both Lana and Bel could reach GB this turn and still have their actions (Bel with his Cunning Action to dash, and Lana because she's closer). Aregerak could swim towards him this turn and possibly catch him next turn, but there's no telling where the dragon is right now.
Aregarak manages to make it safely to dry ground where he...ahem...hoofs it...towards the spot where Bel just dove into the water. Lana is just ahead of him.
// Just need a turn from Lana and a death saving throw from GB now! //
//OOC - I forgot I was temp Lana//
Lans will follow GB and also ready an action, preparing to use her bow if the dragon resurfaces.
If dragon appears Attack: 19 Damage: 12 Hunter Mark bonus dmg 3
She shouts out to Aregarak,
"Fill your greed and HURRY UP!"

Looking over the situation, Bel decides to go after GB (cunning action as suggested)

Bel acts quickly as GB plunges into the water, dashing nimbly across the ledge along the western part of the lake before diving in after GB.
// Bel, if you want to drag GB to safety, we just need a Strength (Athletics) check to determine how far you can get him. //

Bel struggles to get GB above water...the bird man is heavier than he looks, and the current here is still quite strong!
// GB will need to make a death saving throw, and also what do Lana and Aregarak want to do? //

Aregarak will try to either get to shore so he can help Bel and GB or he will try and swim directly to them to try and save them.
and against my better judgement - I'll go ahead and toss an athletics roll in here for you just in case

I'd rather be on the shore than in the water with the dragon

Lana shouts as GB falls into the water.
"Noooooooooo, He was my favorite! second to spirit..." : )
She notches a arrow and again fires at the dragon.
