You feel like the swamps will never end, as you press through the area, you wish there were more residents to speak to. But, even when you see a shadow or a movement, it's gone. There could be dozens of others out there, unwilling to approach.

"Aha!" he hisses. "Another big of prey for the mighty Umohalith?!" He seems menacing, but he doesn't advance. Maybe now it is a good time to keep going?
