# The [[Marshes]] The **Marshes** are a vast stretch of cold, misty swampland beyond the [[River Ivlis]]. The terrain is thick, difficult to navigate, and grows so dark beneath the vegetation that travelers can quickly lose all sense of direction without a guide. The Gang first entered the [[Marshes]] in [[011_20260807 Session 11#Scene 5 The Snail Rider|Session 11]] while escorting **Vito** as he gathered alchemical ingredients from **corpse flowers** and a **devil bow**. They learned: - The Marshes are home to numerous undead, including ghosts, zombies, and bodaks. - Carnivorous plants also grow throughout the area. - Dark fey creatures live here as well and are better left unprovoked. - Muriel described the Marshes as the domain of [[Baba Lysaga]]. ### Quests Involving the Marshes <!-- QueryToSerialize: TASK WHERE ( contains(text, "Marshes") OR contains(tags, "Marshes") ) AND !completed --> <!-- SerializedQuery: TASK WHERE ( contains(text, "Marshes") OR contains(tags, "Marshes") ) AND !completed --> - [[Save Doru]] #BaroviaVillage #Marshes #Stoya #todo #timesensitive @{2026-06-19} - [[Protect Vito the Alchemist as he gathers herbs]] #Marshes #todo @{2026-06-19} #deadline <!-- SerializedQuery END --> <!-- ```dataview table WITHOUT ID TASK WHERE ( contains(text, "Marshes") OR contains(tags, "#Marshes") OR contains(file.inlinks, [[Untitled Kanban]]) ) AND !completed GROUP BY "### Quests Involving the Marshes" ``` --> ```dataview table WITHOUT ID TASK WHERE ( contains(text, "Marshes") OR contains(tags, "#Marshes") OR contains(file.inlinks, [[Untitled Kanban]]) ) AND completed GROUP BY "## Quests Completed" ```
