That could have gone better. As usual, Treasure was searching for her namesake. She was in the jungle, a lot further south than she normally trekked. She wouldn't have come out all this way if it hadn't been for a good reason, and the treasure she'd heard of was reason enough for ten journeys. The one problem was... she didn't know much about the jungle. Swashbucklers were supposed to go gallivanting around the tropics and be familiar with fighting off crocodiles and all manner of jungle beasties. Treasure thought she'd be able to handle a jaguar should one attack, but this was different. This was relentless, unforgiving mud.
She was now stuck up to her knees. Pulling did nothing. Wriggling around did nothing. She'd tried to grab onto some tree roots with her teeth, but they were rotted through and gave no purchase. She wasn't sinking very fast. She wasn't even sure she was sinking at all anymore. Still, she was stuck even if she wasn't in danger of suffocating. She sighed, screwed up her face, and lost a bit of pride.
"Um... hello?" She called out, knowing that her voice wouldn't go far in the dense jungle. "Help please? Help? HELP!" She was so annoyed. What a rookie mistake!
