It's a fine summer's morning, and you're out at sea on your small fishing boat, bait and your trusty- if old- fishing rod at hand to help you make a living. Finding a spot that gave you a good haul yesterday, you settle down and cast off your line. The first few hours, however, are uneventful, with no fish to be had. Strange, really- this patch of ocean was teeming with the buggers yesterday. Did something scare them off?

Just as you muse on this thought, you're rudely interrupted by the sound of something breaking the water's surface, and suddenly spot a bluish-white tentacle making a bee-line for y- OHGODNO.

Wrapping itself around your torso, despite your best efforts to stop it, you are dragged over the side of your boat and down to the sunless sea below, your vessel left drifting on the surface. As you are pulled deeper down, you notice the tentacle's source- a strange, inky cloud about a mile below you.

At this moment, the tentacle's grip relaxes for a moment- if you struggle now, you might be able to break free and work from there. How do you proceed?
