Will Rowan find answers in the water?
Tropes:
- Anger Born of Worry: After Rowan dives into the river to retrieve the mysterious watch, the rest of the cast are annoyed with their recklessness, but it's more to do with how worried they were that Rowan risked their life unnecessarily, especially if they failed to retrieve the watch and almost drowned for nothing.Lincoln: You nearly got yourself killed, Rowan! You need to be more careful!
- Cliffhanger: At the end of the chapter, Rowan is attacked by the same vine monster that took Jessica in Chapter 1.
- Let's See YOU Do Better!: If Rowan dives into the river and fails to get the mysterious watch, Jocelyn calls their actions "stupid and useless". One of Rowan's potential responses to this is "Why don't you try it then?".
- Shout-Out: The achievement for surviving the river and retrieving the watch on the first try is called "Waterbender".
- Turned Off By The Jerkass: If Rowan is on the Friends with Benefits route with Jocelyn, they can break things off with her after finding out about her past as a Barbaric Bully, leading to this conversation:Rowan: I think...we're done.Jocelyn: (surprised) What?Rowan: Well, what did you expect?! What you did was messed up, and I'm not going to absolve your guilt. I don't want to do this anymore.
- Your Mind Makes It Real: Rowan has a dream about cutting a cake, then Amalia wakes up with a scar in the same shape Rowan made while cutting the cake in their dream. It's believed to be something to do with the Power.
