The journey through the sunken tunnels had been less demanding than he'd previously thought, though Zeratul knew he might be in the minority there. He was a powerful swimmer simply by nature, especially since he didn't require the oxygen the rest of the humans did. What little cloth he wore was completely soaked, but he didn't let it slow him down as he made his way through the starry cavern. Any other time he might stop and admire its alien beauty, but not now.
That Madness here was much, much heavier on his mind than it had been during his previous mission. It made him rethink going on without a Weapon, even if there were other partnered pairs around. He hadn't come all this way to stop, let alone back away from a fight if it presented itself. Perhaps he ought to catch up with Tassadar, and provide support for the templar as he had done before.
It wasn't long, however, until he found his path blocked by a particularly nasty looking creature. Zeratul was silent enough that it hadn't noticed him outright, but the way it was sniffing around meant that wouldn't last long. Overgrown fauna he knew he could handle, but a Kishin was outside of his power to harm.
