To the west of Tlacopan and south of the Blade-Tooth Mountains is the Great Green Swamp, a large body of water that covers nearly half of the western portion of the valley and which The Lustrare River via the Huron Creek empties. Multiple species of trees dot the swamp, though the shade they provide protects from the sun, it does make spotting lurking predators such as massive Alligators and Troglodons. With water that is nearly black and thick green algae covering much of the surface the swamp is perilous for the inexperienced or guideless. Predators are not the only dangers here, the further you get away from the moss and vine covered shore line you risk being pulled under by the powerful suction of underwater tunnels and caverns. Like all swamps it is not only the large animals which you must look out for but the small as well. Poisonous frogs the size of a man’s head hide on the islands throughout the swamp, venomous snakes, along with other small insects
