Curling grey tentacles of fog clung to the gloomy swamp Muddy water gives off a mouldy, rotting stench that pollutes the dim air Bleach white trees tower out the murky depths Twisted tree roots rip through the dry, dusty earth Pale rays of light cut through the unhealthy, withered branches

A ripple tears through the still, cloudy swamp A terrifying spiked heads breaks the filthy surface Emerald scales glisten and gleam with foul water Long white scars covered the beasts body Piercing ink black eyes search the dying forest Jagged, razor sharp teeth flash in the many heads A flickering ruby tongue tastes the putrid air Sour breath escapes from the deadly mouth A lethal tail slices through the swirling mist, as the creature gracefully submerges itself into the sucking slimy swamp
