Fred was finding it hard to stay afloat, as his leather armour was weighing him down. (It was lucky that he hadn't been wearing metallic armour, but that would not have been practical in the caves, where he had known that a fair amount of climbing was likely to be involved.) So he was relieved when the river emerged from the caves and spread out into a wider - and hence slower-flowing - stream. Now it should be possible for him to swim to the shore
As his eyes adjusted to the sudden glare of the outside world, he saw that a forest grew on both banks of the river. Just ahead of him, Diana had made it to the shore and was climbing out of the water, her once fine gown now in an even worse condition than when he had first met her not that long before. [16130]
