Smiles are contagious.
Now that the group was working together, Zavien felt encouraged to renew his efforts with vigorous enthusiasm. He sped along the bank of the river, unsure what other actions could possibly prevent the Void infection from reaching the ocean. Despite his smiles and positive remarks to the other members, Zavien could feel his hope slipping away. What were the four of them supposed to do? Even with the help of all the creatures, a demigod, and a literal GOD, it felt that the spread was inevitable. At this point, it seemed they should turn their energy towards crisis management and prepare for their heroic attempts to fail.
Zavien gritted his teeth and gave a frustrated - slightly hysterical - chuckle. The dam seemed like a logical choice, but he had little hope that it would fully stop the water and the pressure would eventually cause the water to either choose another route or break through the dam. Overall, it was a bandaid on a festering, gushing wound. The only way to truly stop the water from connecting with the sea would be to reverse the flow, change the course back inland, or completely dry up the river. None of which level 0 Zavien had any power to impact.
Realizing the futility of his actions at their current location, he considered the other facts about their situation. He found it strange that the water was already an oily purple even though the creatures had begun to steer clear of them. Maybe it was possible something further up the river was polluting it?
He gave a shout to the others before turning away from the furiously working beavers (and humans). "I'm going to look for other sources of infection!" Determination and panic fueled his speed as Zavien sprinted up the waterway, pulling anything suspicious from the water in a last-ditch attempt to lessen the Void heading down stream. His sword stood at the ready, hacking down Void creatures and flora before separating them as much as he could from the bank.
Zavien is trying to clear more Void sources from farther upstream to lessen the pollution traveling down.
