Lia gets clipped by a falling rock after calling out to Neth, as does Buppido and Jimjar, but they all maintain their footing. Ranador is not so fortunate, neither Stena nor Buppido were able to get to him in time, and he goes down in a crumpled heap.
Plibbleburp leaps over the side of the boat, the rock that nearly clipped him stoving in the planking of the boat as it comes to rest. Stena, Galingal and Neth all avoid a rain of rocks that pound into the boat around them, wood splintering slightly.
Galingal looks up, but isn't able to see anything other than the rain of rocks as they enter his vision, but is able to pole the boat forward, out from under the worst of it.
The KT comes scrambling back aboard, a white, eyeless small fish latched onto his backside, and his body covered in assorted small bites. He slaps it off, where it flops around the deck.
"Don't go in the water!"

Galingal looks around at the state of their boat after they're safely past the rock attack but his attention is diverted when he hears Stena calling for Lia. He moves over to see what's happening.
He looks down at Ranador then to Stena.
"You are attached to him?" Galingal asks. "He comrade to you?"
Galingal frowns, thinking that the journey would be easier without the young drow but he has come to consider Stena indispensable and she will be less useful if the drow dies.
He kneels down, and if Ranador isn't stable, Gal places a hand on the boy and says "Säästää kuolevia".
Lia hears Stena’s call, and Galingal fussing over Ranador. She has one eye closed with blood from a cut over her brow. She looks wild, left and right, and scrabbles over the uneven deck towards the boy, skidding a little on loose rock and water.
She kneels beside him, checking, “He seems.. stable… You want me to bring him round, or let him rest?…”, she asks Stena, looking up and around at the cave roof for any other loose rocks or dangers. “We could get him in inside?…”.
Lia gets up, and viscously mocks the little white fish on the deck before kicking it overboard. “Not so brave now, are you without your friends, and breathing air and all?!…” <kick>.
”Here, I can help get the boy in on a bunk”, she offers.
Stena looks up into the darkness, angrily, before accepting Lia's help in getting Ranador into a spot to rest.
After she is satisfied that Ranador is comfortable she will go out and survey the damage to the boat. While looking at the damage she will ask the KT or Buppy,
Lia stays with the drow boy. She cleans him up with prestidigitation and makes sure he’s comfortable. She also finds his bow or dagger, or whatever he has, and sets it beside him within easy reach, just in case.
She settles herself across the small room from him and tries to tap into the cosmos and plucks out a quiet tune on her lyre…
((Stena, give me an Investigation check, pretty sure you're not proficient in Water Vehicles, but if you are, do it at advantage.))
Buppy licks his lips before responding. "Two."
Lia is unable to find any bow or dagger for Ranador, but does find a piece of fungal wood that he'd been using to practice his forms with Buppy and Stena.

This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Galingal gives the boat a look too when he sees Stena doing so. With the damage done by the tunnel ceiling and all of the creatures intent on getting at the group he's surprised it's still floating at this point. But hopefully it has enough left in it to make it two more days.
He settles down by the edge of the boat and keeps watch on their surroundings as they keep moving.
Gal notices a slow seep, the boat is taking on water slowly, but the more it takes on, the lower in the water it likely rides, and the slower it is to move. It might make it a few more days, but it's hard to say. If the damage can be more fully assessed, you might have a better idea if it can be repaired.
Whether he shares that in the moment or not is up to him, but as he's keeping watch and you push on, he notices a small island rising in the distance, with a large central fungal stalk, and a small forest of smaller luminous ones around it. There are what appear to be windows cut into the sides of the large fungus, the cap spreading like a roof over what would be the mushroom equivalent of a modest hut maybe 15 ft in diameter.

As you swing wide around the island, a pier with a mushroom cap coracle tied up to it comes into view. There are more windows in the mushroom stalk, some of which are unshuttered, and you can spot a glow of an internal light source. It would seem that someone is home.
Jimjar opines that he bets he'd make it worse if he tried to fix the boat, and conveys the question to Buppido, who gives a shrug and shake of his head.
"Say we risk stop here and look at underpart of boat again," Galingal says, completely lacking any nautical vocabulary. "Next water beast could sink us."
He looks back at the island, thinking that it doesn't look too dangerous.

Ranador's breathing evens out as Galingal touches him. He seems to be resting.

Stena looks up from Ranador to give Galingal an incredulous look.
"Are ye seriously ask meh this now?"
She ignores the older elf to focus on the stabilized Drow boy.
"Ye'll be okay. Just rest, just rest."
She looks around now,
"What was that?"
"Just fall rocks," Galingal says, going back to poling the boat along.
Lia gets up, and viscously mocks the little white fish on the deck before kicking it overboard. “Not so brave now, are you without your friends, and breathing air and all?!…” <kick>.

"Two what?"
"Travel now, rest. Travel again. Should be close."

Galingal points out the mushroom hut to the others as they approach it but he also points out where the boat is sinking.
"It is not fine," Galingal says to Neth. Then to the rest "Any know about boats? Can fix?"
He looks back to the mushroom hut island for any signs of life, but also for anywhere they might be able to dock the boat without having to beach it.
