After they walked for around an hour or so, they saw a swampy area in front of them. The area washuge. Enormous bubbles appeared from the surface. Once they floated into the air, they burst intomiasmas of unpleasant gas.
James looked at the map again. The map recorded that this area is a dangerous one. The swampyarea was filled with mystical power.

Even if theydo manage to arrive at Mount Nothingness, they might not have the guts to enter.
