That would totally be a suck assignment for unlucky Guard ‘x’ – “Moat keeps overflowing, swim down and see if you can find those Decanters that Derro dropped in there before they flood the city/countryside! Oh, and try to avoid the moat monster; but for gods’ sake, don’t kill it! Cost us a fortune to raise it up to this size!”
That’s what I was thinking, too… though I was thinking more along the lines of the water flow between them being used directly to power the bike’s engine. But why do they look the same? I cannot imagine that being OSHA compliant.
I suspect evil circus performers deliberately build their equipment to not be OSHA compliant.
If something is unexpectedly safe, they modify it until it is unsafe.
They pretty much have to be one of each unless there’s also a less visible bag of devouring they’re draining into. If they were both decanters the bike would be streaming water and if they were both recanters it wouldn’t have power.
You’ve discovered the fundamental chaos paradox! Simply stated, starting Chaos for fun will get you killed; starting Chaos for any other reason is just plain stupid. Your secret code word is XKKLYYK. Use it in your next ritual to access special bonuses!
For all who don’t know, Endless Decanters of Water are NOT just bottles that produce water.
They are minor portals to the Plain of Water, because of this, Water Elementals attack any one who has one first, to stop them from stealing water.
So theoretically, with two or more linked together (like a Bag of Holding put inside another Bag of Holding), the act could open a portal to the Plain of Water and let loose some Really Pissed Off Water Elementals, other denizens of the Water Plain, or one HELL of a Tsunami.

Also, great inclusion of the eyes in that last panel.
Guess we’ll find out soon if those are decanters of endless water.
Yeah…

Could also contain recanters, to drain the moat even faster.
Could be one of each! The decanter to provide water for cooling and the recanter to dispose of the hot water.

It’s going to be SOMETHING bad.
Instant Chaos! Just add water and step back … far back …no, farther than that …
If you can still see it, keep going.
So you get to start it but just imagine it after? Where’s the fun in that?

Poor Derek. He should always know to wear a poncho when the weather report calls for it.
We all saw it, right? Cloudy with a chance of Akirain.

I see Derek is learning about the rain cycle the hard way.
That’s water under the bridge now. Enough pondering the flow and ebb of time! They have to turn the tide!
There is a tide.
I hope Derek and the guard didn’t suffer any splash damage.
Jeez, nobody called out the Akira tribute while I was gone so now I gotta a month later. A classic of animation to be sure though!
