Kronal mumbled something incoherent, unsure of how to proceed. He glanced at the green maro-sorceror, hoping that he might know more of this foul place.

As Kronal spoke Rythos concluded that the vampire had covered his trail well enough to prevent being follow. From the beach came the clearing of throats as the two men who had accompanied the mages ashore called out, "Are we going into the swamps sirs?"
"Perhaps we should sail to another part of this new land and see if there are any coastal towns or cities that could heal you if you are wounded, sir." replied one of the sailors hesitantly before continuing, "I've lost fellow sailors in harsh swamps and forests because they thought they could best the disease and the land."
The sailor looked down the beach and back to Kronal saying, "That's a good question. We didn't see anything as we approached from the south. That means the best bet would be to head north along the coast. We may get lucky."
Rythos returned in time to hear the suggestion to find a town and nodded. "Rythos find no trail to follow. Best idea to find town...get out of filthy swamp"

Name: Rythos
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Height: 6’7”
Weight: 342 lbs
Appearance: Rythos has muscles in places most people don’t even have places. His dark hair is long and unkempt. His deep blue eyes seem to hold secrets few can fathom. He wears crude clothes made of the skin of a Craw Wurm. He also carries a crude dagger made from the bone of the same Wurm. He accented his armor with other bits of the bone, and his satchel is made from the stomach of the great beast.
The two sailors nodded in agreement and turned to head back to the boat. There they looked to the two mages to join them before they would return to the ship in search of a coastal town up north.
Both sailors nodded and pushed the boat back into the waters. They both held the sides stable so Rythos could board with Kronal. Once he was in the boat they would hop in and take them back to the ship.
Rythos looked back at the swampland, and then to the boat...and the open sea. The two things he hated most...the swamps, aligned with black magic...and water...that of blue magic. As he got into the boat, he could be heard grunting under his breath..."Better be forests next, Rythos hate trip so far..."

The trip back to the boat was a silent one. The sailors quickly told the rest of the crew what they had seen. Within minutes there was a visible restlessness about the ship. The captain kept it in check by ordering the ship to the north.
Soon they came upon a region where the beach and swamp had given way to some massive stone structure that seemed to span all the way into the heart of the land. That too was cut off by a new beach that seemed to form a crescent shape. Expanding out from this beach were dozens of chains of islands...
As Kronal scanned the islands for signs of inhabitants, he caught a splashing in the water near one of the islands. Focusing on that spot he saw another splash, this time he caught a glimpse of what looked like a human's upper torso...
Rythos spat and growled. He recognized these...abominations. "Merfolk..." he said...

"The people of the Mer?" Kronal mused. He'd heard of them, but as a desert-dweller knew little more than that they lived in the seas in groups. Nevertheless, given Rythos' reaction, perhaps some wariness would not be amiss. He moved his hand to his satchel.
One of the ship hands asked the two mages, "Should we steer clear of the islands then? I think I see glaciers and ice along the northern part of the land past the islands."
Kronal glanced down again at his virulent wound and murmured "I'd rather not chance an unfriendly encounter... but neither would I delay treatment. I'd risk the isles. Rythos?"

Rythos nodded. "Best hurry to get treatment for you. Rythos deal with Merfolk..." he grunted as he adjusted his satchel. "Swamps...Merfolk...Rythos not getting paid enough for this..."

The crew grew quiet as they approached the isles. The merfolk in the water for their part seemed to ignore the ship, going about their daily business. That is until the ship entered the heart of the island chain. That's when the waters began to swirl around the ship holding it in place.
Looking over the side of the boat you can see several merfolk mages casting magic to manipulate the waters. Rising from the depths of the ocean on a spout of water was a single merfolk clad in silver and gold ceremonial armor.
He drew closer stopping before the ship calling out, "You enter our waters unannounced. Who are you and what business do you have in our domain?"
Kronal quirked an eyebrow at Rythos before turning to the Merfolk leader. "I have, as you can see," removing his hand from his stomach, "a wound that needs to be attended to. I earned it in battle with a fell giant in the swamps, but it is unlike any other battle wound I have experienced. Hence... I seek aid to cure the affliction."

(My apologies for not replying sooner and for not giving notice. My CPU crashed and I've been really busy with my new job and hadn't been able to secure Internet access for more than a few minutes at a time. I have my CPU back however, and shouldn't be going anywhere anytime soon.)
Rythos grunted and shook his head. He didn't trust the Merfolk at all, but he did realize that they would have more knowledge of the area than the crew of the ship.
"Rythos apologize for trsspassing. Did not know this was Merfolk territory. Any assistance to lead us out of your waters and to land and medical aid would be much help" he said, trying to be as diplomatic as possible.
