At the underwater cave's entrance, Alice was taking two people at a time through the submerged tunnel, surfacing right next to the cliff, where Megan and Madeline were waiting to take them to safety.
As Madeline carried the people out of the water and flew them to the top of the cliff, she used magic to create a small bonfire to warm their shivering bodies since the water was freezing cold.
After Alice led another couple to the surface, Megan joined her on the way back inside the cave to help her evacuate the people.
Suddenly, while swimming through the submerged tunnel, the water turned even colder than it was before, making the two women shiver.
Coming from the other side of the tunnel, they spotted Zac, who wasn't using an oxygen tank, holding two of the captive citizens under his arms as he roughly kicked his legs in an attempt to swim.
'What is he doing!?' Alice pondered.
