We-ell, speaking of those bruises, that's the real interesting thing . . .

Because the moment they step closer to the water, they begin to glow.

It's the same bioluminescence that some of the newcomers had reported in the water, and it doesn't seem inclined to go away. If they prod at it, smear it, tug at their skin, they'll find it's embedded in their skin, as permanent as a freckle. It also isn't able to be recorded: it's just pictures of themselves, dark and ordinary.

But! It doesn't hurt, so by all means: throw rocks. Prod at the lake with sticks. There's not much reaction, although the nifty thing about this lake is that you can see clear to the bottom. Not really spooky, just a neat little feature. The moonlight is more than enough to see the depths, and boy, it's deep. Branches and large rocks seem suspended within the crystal-clear water, but sadly for Noct, no fish. He can still try, though.

Making camp, they can certainly sleep. Which, by the way: who's keeping first watch? :)
