Ember puts the cards away pleased at her enjoyment of the activity, and walks into the cave with the others. Ember reaches a hand out to Talon too late to stop him from drinking from the pool. "We should wa....". she sighs and waits to see if there are any adverse reactions to the water.
Son doesn't see anything that really jumps out at him, but he gathers that the area is suffused with magic of some sort.
Talon doesn't recognize the mushrooms other than that they are mushrooms, and thinks the water tastes odd, but not as unpleasant as the water that flowed out of the rocks below Father's cave. This one is kind of eggy, but also a bit sweet and spicy?
Mark ponders his reasons for being here, and catches fuzzy glimpses... someone in danger, himself... smaller, younger, standing up and fighting for them...
((You were going a bit away from mechanics, so I'll throw in a bit extra... Mark has the Folk Hero background, and did something brave that earned him the favor of the common folk, but can also cast shield of faith.))
Blue is certain that they aren't a mushroom he's seen before, but doesn't think they are magical, and but are probably edible.
BigUn can see that the pool is fairly shallow, and doesn't seem to have any pondweed or fish living in it. The dripping from above would suggest that it is filled by whatever filters through the rock above, which could account for the slight eggy aroma, if there were the right kind of minerals in the rock.
Ember observes Talon possibly poisoning himself, but other than a twitch of the beak at the flavor, seems unaffected in any negative way. His pupils might be wider, but he's a bird, and they might have already been big.

When Talon doesn't drop dead after a few minutes Son also takes a drink, trying not to crush too many mushrooms in doing so. He does wonder how Father gets to the pool without crushing the mushrooms, or maybe they just grow quickly?
The images in the pool helps put Mark at ease some. Still contemplating how he ended up here, he takes a deep breath in. Exhaling slowly, he looks back in the pool. Only seeing his own reflection, he cups his hands in the pool and raises them to his face, splashing the water on himself. He then dips his hands back in and raises them to his mouth. Hesitating for only a brief moment, he tips his hands in and gulps the water down.

Seeing everyone follow Talons initiative to drink from the pond, she thinks 'This is why they came here right?' She will follow as well and take a drink from the pond.

Blue tries to sniff the water he has pooled in his hands, but misjudged his distance and snorts a noseful. After a bout of sputtering, he drinks it down, the odd flavor clinging to his throat.

"You are all very trusting... something's clearly not right with the water, it has a funny taste. Well, let me know how you feel, and can we get back outside, or closer to the entrance now?". Talon is not comfortable this deep into the cave.
If he doesn't drop dead (or any of the others) he will ask again for food,
"Well, now we have done that. And sorry to ask again, but I am getting pretty hungry, is there any food?"
He looks around hopefully. If given food he will thank the giver and eat it by the cave entrance with Talon.
Once done he will say,
"I'm going to try and get more from this book at the mouth of the cave. I'm confident I can put a spell on the entrance of the cave tonight that will let us know if something comes inside or gets near. Maybe should still have a watch for the night though?"
Using the last of the daylight he will try and figure out more in the book, looking for anything that might aid in defense.
