If they wanted to find out what was in the tunnel, it sounded like they would have to find out themselves. That wasn't so surprising, though. Wasn't that pretty much how the rest of Landel's worked? Claude imagined that would go double for the supposed exit (he was still pretty skeptical about that in the first place, to be honest).

Anise was the first out of the boat, but when Guy tried to follow suit, Claude furrowed his eyebrows and tried to reach for him. "Hey, hold on--" He remembered how disoriented he'd felt when he'd paid the same toll awhile back. The last thing they needed was for Guy to go toppling into the lake water!

Unfortunately, Guy lost his balance before Claude could steady his friend. The moment he gripped onto Anise to keep himself from hitting the ground, Claude froze and grew wide-eyed. He'd fully expected Guy to flail and panic, so the silence that resulted came as a shock.

"Um, are you okay?" he asked as he stepped onto the dock himself.
