Lorath turned so that he was facing where the serpents would be coming from and raised his sword. This cloak, which seemed to be adherent as if it were cursed, would have to wait until later, when he could decide for sure whether it was dangerous or not. Right now it was just uncomfortable and a little dangerous, but there was no time to dedicate do it now.
He stood there, waiting for the serpents to pop out of the water and at him. When they did he would bring the sword down to hopefully slice them in such a way they would at least be discouraged from further attacking him.
