Briefing

Do not drown chasing a shard, and if the plate gives way, pull the living out first.

Working the ice-well is the job; if the plate gives way, pull the living out first. Seek shelter if Murkfrost Murk is up.

Whatever happens down there, do not drown chasing a shard.
Down below Murkfrost, the count is the only thing that genuinely matters.
If the plate gives way, you pull the living out first, before anything else.
When Murkfrost Murk rises, seek shelter, and know that a Murkfrost Vault Break is also wired to this step. I settle this step at the Sinking Hollow.
The cut below is dangerous work, not a sightseeing tour.
