Fish bite him, but eventually the water disappears. He heads to where he felt a gateway but it was a trap - he starts being turned into a beast - growing hair and paws and being unable to channel. He looks for Rahvin - only one chance

Nyn drags Moggy up the stairs and spots Rahvin from behind. Drawing as much as she can, she channels fire into the room. He is burnt and seared, but can hold the flames at bay.
