The last team was incompetent, they failed to clear the creatures polluting the area with their very presence. We were sent in as a clean up team to rid the area of these foul beasts once and for all. Upon entering the swamp, I was quickly able to locate the trail the previous team created on the previous expedition out there. We located the pond where the previous team killed the previous abominations and prepared for a quick fight. Our team had little trouble with the beast. We were able to cause the creature to quickly retreat in fear once it realized it was no match for us. It tried to take advantage of the murky depths of the swamp water. All it did was delay the inevitable. During this portion of the fight, an assassination attempt on Princess Maki was committed by Berta, an enemy leader of rival outpost, Desperate Hope. Maki was able to survive, mostly unscathed.
The creature wasn’t the only danger of the swamp. Amber May and Berta were left stuck in the bog. Seconds passed. They were both moments away from drowning, but thanks to my connection to the elements, I was able to free them from the depths of the greedy waters.
