Oh no. Oh, sweet, sweet Naga, no. Inigo can feel himself toppling backwards, and he's pretty sure he loses about ten years of his life at the shock as he realises he's about to go under. His arms instinctively latch onto the book, holding it close to his chest, and he really tries to take a few steps backwards towards safety..
But he is falling all the same. He does manage to stumble said few steps backwards, but that just means he's landing in the more shallow part of the water. Not deep enough to drown him, but shallow enough for him to actually hit his head as he hits the ground with a loud "oof!", still holding onto the book.

He groans. "Am I still alive.."
