Forward

Mulling it over, you decide to continue forward, the path can't be that bad... Your journey down the path is gradually slowing as the ground gets softer under you, your boots starting to push deeper into the earth with each step. Trudging on, you only really get worried when your legs are sinking in up to your knees, almost going over the top of your boots.

Eventually, you get into a large, marshy area, where the ground has slowly faded into a darker shade. There are various roots and vines poking though the surface, and a low fog has settled across the whole scene. Advancing in, you're immediately slowed down again as the mud gets thicker, making it harder to drag your legs up out of the mess.

After a few tiring steps through the thickened marsh, you're **** to a complete stop, the mud refusing to release your legs.. Uh oh. You take a few breaths to calm yourself, looking around for a way out of this.. There's a few vines coiled around on the surface, you could use those, or you could just struggle and try to pry your way free..
