"Whoa! Lad! Calm yeself lad. Ye can't be threatening folks without proper pants my boy! We will deal with this derro soon enough. We have to get him back and best be quick about it. He may have other friends around. Ye know the likes of him never have friends that aren't far away.."
Swimming in the pool is difficult for Elmo and searching the depths of the pool is even harder.
(Elmo - Roll an Athletics check, please)
His trained eyes catch sight of something that shouldn't belong in a natural formation and draws attention to itself as having value to a worldly thief such as Elmo.
(With Mikey's assistance, pointing out the areas that he's already scoured, Elmo will have advantage on his roll, however this will not work in the future if the character assisting has already performed the same action individually, i.e. since Mikey has already searched, he's not going to be able to provide assistance to another character for their search. This is to prevent abuse in re-rolling over and over.)
The object seems to be lodged in the underwater tunnel where the vortex of water is leaving the pool...the current is incredibly strong and without careful planning and aid, any character would be swept away.
Successfully swimming around the pool, careful to avoid the vortex in the middle, Elmo is able to point out to Mikey where the lodged object is located.
Mikey is going to paddle out and retrieve Grems gear. After returning it, He’s then going to borrow the necessary amount of rope from the rest of the group and tie a life line around himself. He will then tie off the other end to a secure rock so there is no possibility of getting carried off. He will then tell his teammates to lend a hand and pull him out after he tugs on the rope three times. Assuming they agree to this plan, he will dive in and approach the object Elmo spotted.
Quietly to Leon, "This scum will not cooperate without a healthy dose of fear, I've dealt with their like. Let me know if you need any assistance loosening his lips."
“Will do. Let’s wait for the boys to come back before the integration begins. Mikey tends to act none characteristically when interrogations begin so it should be fun to see.”
With help from the group, Mikey’s plan works very well. Allowing him to retrieve the item from its lodged position in the pool’s vortex.
Mikey returns to the group with help from the rope and pulling from the others. He presents a belt of odd shape. It’s Easy to tell that it’s imbued with magic.
"That's a nice looking belt lad! Thinking we need to take a look at it. You dont seem to be needing it due to ye lack of pants and what not. Let's take the belt and get moving eh. If no one wants to wear the belt I will but otherwise don't be mattering at the moment lads."
This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Assuming that doesn't work, he just hangs on to it for the time being until he can get it identified.
He then moves over to Droki and begins the interrogation since nobody else seems up to it. He says the following:
"Hey bro!! We've been looking everywhere for you! Look, here's the deal; you are straight up captured. Now yours truly isn't interested in carving you up or transmogrifying you into something unnatural, but the rest of these guys...(he glances meaningfully at Rowland). What's say you just cooperate and tell us what we want to know? It won't improve your situation but it will go a VERY long way towards keeping it from getting any worse. I can be your bro firend in this thing if you just cooperate!" Persuasion check= 5
After, quietly listening to the conversation, Rowland will take a moment to ensure Droki's bound good and tight, then he'll search for anything in his possession.

Gremryl will take stock of his items and notice his javelins in the water... "maybe mikey can get them for me.."
Athletics check: 16

Rowland will slowly lower his blade and release his grip on Droki, the gleam now gone from his eyes.
"Aye, perhaps he'd rather talk then become a succulent snack for the denizens of the dark. Time will tell which fate he chooses."
To Mikey, "I'll help you friend."
Rowland grabs the rope and prepares to pull.
Leon takes a spare pair of pants out of his bag and puts them over Rowland head.
”Put these on first and stop tea bagging the Derro”
"Ah thanks"
Rowland, dons the pants.
Quietly to Leon, "This scum will not cooperate without a healthy dose of fear, I've dealt with their like. Let me know if you need any assistance loosening his lips."
“Will do. Let’s wait for the boys to come back before the integration begins. Mikey tends to act none characteristically when interrogations begin so it should be fun to see.”
"This dam derro wont be doing a daring escape under our watchful eyes..."

Elmo exits the water,
"Look what me and Mikey found! Ye start beating information out of the derro yet mates?", Elmo says as he gets dressed again.
Mikey does an arcana check on the belt to see if he can figure out what the hell it does 8
Assuming that doesn't work, he just hangs on to it for the time being until he can get it identified.

Mikey is unable to determine the true nature of the belt.
The Derro listens to Mikey and glances a look towards Rowland, then back to the Tortle.
Droki - “I don’t know what you’ve been told, strange one. I’m one of the good guys around here!” He says pleadingly.
After, quietly listening to the conversation, Rowland will take a moment to ensure Droki's bound good and tight, then he'll search for anything in his possession.
Leon approaches Droki
“What makes you feel like you are doing good? They have many negative things to say of you up above. What you are up to down here?”
