You remember the stories all too well of young Saukkonens getting caught unaware to meet a grisly end, and this environment is all too inviting for such a fate upon yourself. You can see the trees nearby standing tall above the stalks and reeds, and so you dash forward for higher ground. The vines and warped bark provides good a good grip for you as you scale upwards, and in turn you start to get the whole picture from above. The reeds become small strokes upon a water canvas, and when you sit upon a branch some meters above your vision narrows as you scan your surroundings. The swamp remains deathly quiet - absent of almost all life save for your breathing and the beating of your heart - and this leaves you to your plan of attack.

You bring forward a jagged stone that cuts into your fingers from the panicked grip you have it in and turn to face your quarry, which by now had returned its attention to you. It was likely to die here, but it would not go down so easily as its gaze pierces through you. Regardless of its own well-being, it will kill you if it's the last thing it does in this world.4. Find a rock!
Your mother looks at you skeptically, but you continue to reinforce your words: "Seriously, I'm fine. I'm just really tired. It took the wind out of me..." you say, remembering the scene you had barely glimpsed before falling unconscious. You quickly turn your head to your father - who remains averted from looked at you - with worry. "Did I-!?"2. Reassure Your Mother - "I'm fine... I think." you groan to your mother as you manage to sit up, "I don't feel anything broken..."
