This caused some creatures to attack farms (lthe first sign was stirges attacking cattle). The Baron has also hired mercenaries to exterminate/harrass the swamp inhabitants and drive them out. The swamp folk are thus in an uproar, they have been small disparate mobs not a unified community and thus generally lack the means to fight back.Unfortunately, the receding waters has also exposed the ruined temple of the Drowned god, unleashing its blighted curse into the surrounding bog (causing the swamps dead to rise and transforming swamp creatures into fell aberrations). Local villagers and the Barons men have also been dragged down into the bog too which the Baron sees as proof that the Swamp is dangerous.My game involved Druids trying to save the swamp, but Swamp folk coming together makes sense too. The blight is now spreading, Mother SIlt, the local genial Swamp Hag has identified the PCs and calls on them to put aside former animosities and unite to save the swamp - cue the PCs, do they go and confront the Baron, or seek an alliance so they can go on and stop the blighted curse of the drowned god?</blockquote>
