Swamp
🕑 Added 2024-05-31 17:18:55 +0000 UTCSask lounged in his vine-strung hammock, letting his tail dip into the murky water below. The sun, at the highest point in the sky, warmed his scales in a most comforting way. "What you s-s-speak does not concern us-s-s, gill-kin" said Sask, his words coming slower than usual from his comfortable perch in the sun. "S-ssoftskins travel not through the everglades-ss, let alone within our marshes-s-s."
"No-o-oo, I speak truth!" The fishfolk replied, gurgling with frustration. "The tribes call upon you and yours to honor our pact-tt... The softskins come... Come with fire... Come with beasts... Beho-oo-old"
His webbed hands rummaged through the oversized rucksack on it's back, pulling from it the head of a horse, still encased in it's armored barding. It bore the insignia of the Evergrowing Tree. "They Inva-aade... And we call you to fulfill your o-oath!"
Sask beheld as requested, and after a brief pause, rolled out of the vines and lifted the head of the deceased mount. Such fishkin would not have strayed far enough into softskin land to retrieve such a specimen of war, and this new truth unsettled him. Nothing in the West Evermarshes held any attraction to them. Invasion could be the only explanation.
"Return to your kin..." Sask replied. "We s-shall ss-send an emmiss-ssary by the next nightfall. We honor our oaths-s-s...."
Hey all!
Last map of the month for ya. :) It's been a loooong while since I've done a good old fashioned swamp but I figure they're always handy for hiding giant frogs and witches.
But just how acidic is that swamp though? Hopefully your players party don't find out.
(I've got a couple more variations in the pipe line I'm finishing off just after the weekend as I'm at a board game convention! :) )
