The first route is The spooky swamp. The only way to cross it, is by chanting a spell so that the bridge will appear. Or at least, that's the only known and safe way.
But Morgana is not a quitter, she doesn't give up that easily. After looking around for a bit, she spotted an old, rusty boat. Better than nothing, right?
She dragged it out of the grass and pushed it into the swamp, thankfully it didn't sink. As Morgana was climbing in, she noticed something. There's only one paddle, great.
She sighed and started to paddle, or at least tried since it wasn't moving.
Then suddenly, out of the depths of the swamp, a monster arose. "Need some help?" It asked. Morgana just nodded and it swum under boat. She was confused, till the boat started rocking back and forth and eventually rose out of the water. The monster was carrying the boat on it's back to the other side of the swamp.
"I don't know how to thank you." She spoke gratefully.
The monster just smiled eerily and disappeared below the gloomy marsh.
Morgana climbed out of the boat and took 3 packages to give to the Wiccans that lived here.
Where to next?
