Finally using his wand he used lumos to light up around his feet, pretty much in a sitting position he aimed his wand towards his feet so he could see what it was had a grip on him. He nearly cried when he realized all it was, was more weeds that had twisted and wrapped themselves around his ankles and the more he pulled and yanked the more they had gotten entwined!

Sticking the handle part of his wand between his teeth with the lit part aimed towards his feet, he started untangling his feet from the weeds. Finally kicking himself free, he turned heading towards the bottom. Finally clearing the weeds, he looked out and saw the water was clearing a bit more swimming along the bottom of the lake about 3 feet up, he moved along through the water his eyes moving side to side searching for a chest.

Finally spotting the side of one, he saw the water movements had pushed a lot of sand over most of it. Using his hands he put his wand back in his holster, and started digging it out. Grabbing it when it was mostly uncovered, he kicked off from the bottom heading towards the surface.
