Fah'lin shakes the Goliath's hand. He wears Plate armor with Rare fine details. He carries a Shield that would certainly be dented and chipped for all the hits its taken, if not for the magic infused into it by Thar while they were at the Forge of Souls. It bears the symbol of Helm, The Watcher. In the other hand he carries a pole for a weapon. The Quarterstaff was a good solid, and sturdy piece even before it got the same treatment as his shield.
He's a young tall man, in his mind twenties with dark hair and Blue eyes. His armor fits him well revealing his light weight. A man with his light build would normally struggle to wear such armor. Though he is not weak he doesn't have the bulk common in heavily armored warriors.
"Fah'lin," he says "Fah'lin Cowbberkayj, and that's Aeliarin, he's a bit quiet," he gestures to the Sorcerer, and the Fighter, "and Gijigume in the water there trying out his new toy, and of course the beloved Owly," he says indicating Arya's bird.
To Gijigume he says, "You're the one in the most danger. It's up to you. Want me to try and open it from here?" (I probably can't)
Tarne takes the hand. Looking over the group, lowering his head in recognition as each was pointed out. Then back to the battleworn man. "It is nice to meet you all here and not some monster or fiendish creature." Turning to Gijigume "I agree that you should decide as ypu wpuld be closest to whatever affects activating it wpuld bring about."
Tarnce himself wears plate as well, dented and scraped with no attempt made to hide the signs of battle. Stylized on his armor are various tribal patterns and a holy symbol on his chest to Tyr. His shield has iconagraphy os a boulder or other large rock that has just been smashed.

Gijigume shrugs his shoulders and gets his rope from his pack: He ties one end around his waist and gives the other to Fah'lin. "If I give two tugs, pull me back," he says. He then heads back underwater, and braces himself well (particularly if the the water flows out), and tries turning the wheel a little.

It might take a few tries but you manage to turn the wheel. The water starts to flow out. It will take an hour or so but the waterlogged corridors will dry out.
"I guess we'll wait..." Fah'lin sighs. "Unless we've got any ideas on what an invisible wall calls love..." Fahlin ponders the last riddle. "What's a young man have to lie for?"
"Maybe a complex metaphor for the cycle of life and death. The baby comes into the world naked and is swaddled in a cradle. The old man dies and leaves it in a box. But the young man, he lies down. It's very deep." Fah'lin nods.
Arya has a quizzical look as you are talking "I really don't get it - The young man has to lie for it. Does the young woman have to lie for 'it' too? What do men go to all this trouble to get but woman can get easily?"
There are steps leading up from the far side and now that the water is lower you can see that most of the room is still deep water with a ledge running around the outside.
"I'll explain it to both of you when you're older" Fah'lin offers, and he starts into the room following the ledge around to the gap on the west wall. Is there a tunnel there or something? He looks around. (Perception: 18)
"A kiss? I do not understand..." Tarnce looks back to the wall and shakes his head.
Tarnce looks on as the water drops and would like to inspect the room before proceeding.
Trance (autocorrect doesn’t like your name) sticks his head in the room and looks around. Floating in the water are a couple of patches of seaweed. Wisdom saving throw please.

"Me? Look at the muscles on the new guy!" Fah'lin passes the end of the rope to Tarnce and takes a firm grip ahead of him to Help if needed.

"Perhaps 'lie' means to lie down? But that still doesn't help," Aeliarin scratches his head.

"Maybe it's a variation on love, like a kiss, maybe?" ponders Gijugume as he dries.
