Quivver was on constant watch for threats. So was Hasan bin Sarab, but he assited with the paddling. Belladonna, Tacomancer and Mr Tarnish all paddled along until yet another fork in the waterway appeared. The druid and the dwarf brought out maps and a sextant and compared notes, and after a few minutes pointed one direction or another, and the five went back to their labor. But today, things had changed. This time the maps were rechecked. The sextant handed to the dwarf. Other notes consulted. As one Mr. Cinder and Belladonna poke almost reverently. "It's here." Belladonna motioned Hasan over and touched her staff to his forehead. "This will help you see the magic of the key." "Many thanks wise one, but I am more worried about that crocodile than I am about the key." The Tacomancer snapped out of his lazy slouch. "No Problem. POLLO!" A feathery beam flew from the mage's staff to the reptilian behemoth on the banks. A quick snap of the jaws and the crocodile was contentedly snacking. Quivver shuddered at the sound of bones snapping. Without another word Hasan dropped his weapons on the deck and dove into the murky water. The others gripped weapons or staves and kept a lookout, knowing it was a hollow gesture. If Hasan ran into trouble, they probably wouldn't know until it was too late. They all jumped a little when Hasan rose to the surface, Raising the key like a trophy and breathing rapidly. "Friends! I have it! Let us rejoice! Let us celebrate! Let us....Leave! We are surrounded! Start Paddling!" The four automatically started to turn the rafts around as they looked around for the danger. Belladonna was the next to spot them. "Those are not plants! They are men!" "No wise woman. They are worse than either. I was hoping to avoid the Pol-men. Stop, Tarnish! Do not attack! The dust from these cursed ones is....cursed." "Meaning what?" "Striking them will force them to release a yellow dust that will make you like them!" Mr. Tanrish dug into the swamp with his pole with new vigor. "Green Vampires! I thought vampires hated sunlight!" "Not these ones. They need the sunlight as much as the plants they tend do. But fear not, they move slowly and will not leave the plants when they are in bloom like this."

Christoph Posted May 11, 2012 Posted May 11, 2012 You can build plants out of any piece, don't you? I like this creative piece usage very much. The blond hair, all these heads from Atlantis creatures... At first I was not too sure about the black raft on black water, but now I think it works because of different texture and height. The unexpected pol-men are great as well! I think for me this is one of my favorite builds in your (altogether huge and epic!) challenge three entry. Quote
