"Sounds like a lot of things depend on luck..." Ilia shook her head, unable to imagine what kind of thing could live down there with all those bodies. If it had been a normal creature, it likely would have eaten them all up by now, or at least caused the lake some turbulence. But other than the ripples moving away from their boat the water was silent.

"Sounds like a nightmare." She chuckled again, a little more confidence in her voice. "But if it's as awful at cards as you say, maybe it's not so bad as an opponent." Whatever it was.
