Lost in the mud.
You wade your way through the slimy mud and down the path. You are beginning to get worried when you sink even further into the thick slimy mud that covers the path.
You quicken your pace in the hope that you will reach the edge of the swamp sooner but all it means is that you sink even more. Soon you are up to your thighs in mud and unable to move any more.
Slowly you sink into the mud until it is up to your neck. You and your crew say your prayers as you slowly sink down into the slimy mud soup forever.
