It feels good to have firm ground beneath your feet once again, even though it is no more than a crusty mud flat supporting a brace of stunted trees. Jarel ties the boat to one of the twisted trunks and settles down to sleep while you take the first watch. Your rumbling stomach reminds you that you have not eaten today: you must eat a Meal now or lose 3 ENDURANCE points.
The night sounds of the swamp make you uneasy but your watch passes without event. Shortly after midnight, Jarel awakens and you are able to catch a few hours’ sleep before dawn arrives and you take to the water once more.
