Alan and Sovann encounter someone... odd



Alan and Sovann stared at the creature newly risen from the bubbling, slick swamp. They had thought it was only a large gas bubble at first until the amorphous thing didn't burst but remained, blocking their way.

"Bubble burst bad!" Alan exclaimed. His fingers fluttered.

"Yessss," was Sovann's only reply.

A mouth formed and up popped two things that could only be eyeballs. They were at the corners of the mouth. Then the thing smiled.

"Hello my friends, yes, I'm Oleag, proprietor of this swamp. May I interest you in gas, cooking oil or a car?"

"No." They walked around it.
