a couple hours later the group came across a piece of the path which was half way up to ones knee submerged in swamp water, at the sides of the roads where tree growing some kind of large fruit on it, but as the group got closer the fruits opened up their eyes, the group at that moment realised the trees were growing human heads. The horses seemed to be at unease by their surroundings and were starting to resist their commands to go forwards.

Reetch trudges through the swamp, almost slipping over as he gingerly places his hooves in the murky waters, all the while guiding Dara along. As he helped Dara over a fallen tree, he looks up to the things hanging from the branches.

"By the gods, what are those....?" he trailed off as realization swept over him.

"By the gods, what are those....?"

"Corpse Weed" Rias said walking across the top of the swamp water on red platforms. "Most the time people avoid them. yes, they can be dangerous, so keep moving"

Karen trudged by the vile plant, then turn turned to Rias, looked at the platform, looked at the group knee deep in swamp "you kinda suck"

Claire looked up at the trees with disgust, and moved as best she could towards the other side of the road. Even Elise seemed to avoid the plants, their eyes unnerving and unnatural in the extreme [/b]"Corpse Weed"[/b] Rias called them, then went on to say "Most the time people avoid them. yes, they can be dangerous, so keep moving"

Claire had little reason to disagree and followed suit - hoping to avoid the potential danger as best as possible. "No argument from me." Claire said, her voice slightly hesitant, as though the act of speech would draw too much of their attention.

William made his way through the swamp. He was looking around for any danger when he saw it. Plants growing human heads, William's face betrayed disgust. "By the gods, what are those....?" the Buvor named Reetch asked. Rias replied "Corpse Weed. Most the time people avoid them. yes, they can be dangerous, so keep moving." "No argument from me." Claire said.

William kept walking, he kept quiet listening for anything that might suggest danger. He held one hand on his longsword, and the ash moved within his armor ready to defend him when called upon. "Stay together, I don't want anyone wandering off in these swamps."

Bom tried to guide his mule around the Corpse weed. Not worth getting into a fight with it. He was careful when dipping his feet into the deeper swamp water, accustomed to testing the depth before venturing further.

"I can't believe plants are your concern, its this stench that will kill us" Dara said completely oblivious to what everyone found so creepy.

"Just be thankful of your ignorance," Reetch said quietly, still eyeing the heads above him.

As the group moved slowly through the thick swamp water a set of 3 moss covered boulders started to float towards them after being hit by the ripples in the water the group was causing.

"Out of curiosity would anyone tell me what's swimming towards us?" Dara questioned hopeing that it was nothing.

"would anyone tell me what's swimming towards us?"

Bom stopped in his tracks and looked around to see what Dara Gon was referring to. He wondered how a blind Buvor noticed what they all didn't.

"I don't know. Best keep an eye..." he glanced at Dara, "...stay vigilant."

The corpseweed began spitting acid onto the rocks, as they floated passed, though this achieved nothing merely causing the moss to be corroded off. The rocks lifted themselves out of the water revealing them to be a giant crap, the crap started tearing down the corpseweed trees, causing the acids in their heads to spill into the water. It stopped approaching the group and continued its lumbering rampage. The group started feeling a tingling sensation around their feet, it looked like the crab was trying to acidify the water instead of attacking its prey head on. The road seemed to re-emerge form the water a fair bit a head.

Rias wrapped the 'fruit' in red balls, pincher and all before to more acid poured into the water "i suggest hurrying" Rias said as she kept walk, though slower since most the energy she was using for the platforms, was now being used to keep the acid out of the water.

Karen nodded, and picked up the pace a bit.

"i suggest hurrying"

Bom nodded and waded faster. His webbed feet would have given him an advantage, had he not been hindered by hooves of his own mule.

"Come ooorn!" He grunted at it.

"Does anyone know a way to distract those crabs?"

"would anyone tell me what's swimming towards us?" The buvor has said what William had also though. "I don't know. Best keep an eye...stay vigilant." Brom said. William looked around, looking for any other threats. Suddenly a crab appeared. It started destroying the trees filling the water with acid. "i suggest hurrying" Rias began using her power to stop as much acid as she could. "Does anyone know a way to distract those crabs?"

William looked at the crab, he knew an way to distract it. He lifted his left hand and ash began to gather around it. He aimed at the crab, and shot a stream of ash at the crab face. Hoping to blind and or suffocate the crab. "Everybody hurry up, we need to reach that path up ahead." William grabbed his tooth sword with his right hand, ready to fight the crab if needed. He also gave his pony the order to walk faster.

Reetch turned to see the mad crab and the approaching acid when an idea struck him.

"Mr Fish!" he called to Bom. "Please take Dara to safety, I think I might be able assist Mr William and Miss Rias." Reetch prepared his body and plunged his hands into the waters, with much effort he pushed the acidic waters away from the party and back towards the crab. It may not be much, but it will buy the others more time to get to dry land.
