Knowing that the longer they were in the water and in these conditions, the more risk Dojima would be. It was one of the many reasons why Eustace tried to keep up a brisk pace, intending to get them to shore as soon as possible. However, it would of course wouldn't be "smooth sailing."

The moment Dojima is pulled backwards, Eustace feels some of it from the rope, but it's the shout that makes him stop and turn. Dojima couldn't see it since he was at the surface, but underwater the Erune could. It was one of the blot merfolk, similar to the ones that had been milling around the underwater palace. But what was it doing up here, and why was it pulling on Dojima's leg—!

Before Eustace could react, it gives a hard yank on Dojima's leg, hands grasping at the fabric to try and forcibly pull him under. The strength is far beyond what either could have expected and it may feel like as if he's being sucked in by a powerful undercurrent. And if Dojima is pulled under, so will Eustace due to being tied to him—at least first.
