Cough, cough!

Being stationed out here isn't pleasant, but someone has to do it.

This place is lethal to those not used to its fumes. And it's not just the swamp that produces noxious gases these days: The creatures here have absorbed the poisons, too. Even the soil stinks!

That, my friend, is the million Kinah question!

The short answer is that we don't know. It seems someone created a terrible poison, and through carelessness, or maybe malice, it ended up in the swamp.

I'll tell you one thing, though. If it turns out this was made on purpose and we find out who did it, I'll wring their necks! I swear it!
