He did get close enough to Torrance, however, that perhaps he could be of some help if his sudden idea worked.
Hopefully his wand worked after being in the swamp. "Think you can grab onto my back?" He shook off some muddy, seaweed-like substance from his wand and attempted to cast Carpe Rectractum towards the corridor. Something about his swamp infested wand was interfering with the magic though and only a short, flimsy rope came out of the wand before fizzling away. Hopefully Tiara had a better idea.
Okay yes, somehow the swamp had turned into quicksand. HOW that had happened was a mystery to her, but this was Hogwarts and strange things happened all the time. "
Okay you two, I think you are stuck in quicksand. So the more you struggle, the worse it gets." In other words, stop it right now!
Tiara tried to think. She watched Ansley's attempt and realized the quicksand was interfering somehow. Magical swamp, after all. So she took out her own wand from its holster and cast a form of Incarcerous. Ropes flew towards the two. "
Catch!" she yelled, already tying the other end to a large statue nearby.
