-ADMIN HAS GRANTED RITE TO MOVE FURTHER POSTING AHEAD-

Yahiko was swiftly dealt with by Michirama, saving Korine and keeping her from hurting herself. Yahiko was chastised greatly by the others and met with great adversity in the lines of socialization it seemed. Now she was dealing with the fact that she might have put her finger in possibly toxic water, but was thankfully saved.

Before that happened, Korine was joyous over the fact that she was saved by Michirama and when she was being preened and given all the sweet talking by Munashi, Korine just hugged onto the delivery girl, "Thank you both very much!" She cried out while the boat was moved. Moving through that bog, using those long poles, it was as if they had to touch the soft mud at the bottom of the water just to push their boat along.

So compared to the water benders, they were moving much slower. Even with the first boat being assaulted by Michirama's wind techniques sliced through boat of the first four people, cutting through two of the cannibals thanks to the risen up nature of the boat, the rudder operator was cast into the water and struggling to swim. Odd for someone who lived on the water to not be able to swim. But that bender leapt out of the boat and flipped, bringing the water up with him to catch any remaining blades of wind and bog them down so to speak. The water even rose up for the bender, a lanky man who started to ride about on the water much like the intended earth wave.

Michirama's plans to use the earth flow wave were very poor. Using earth release over such deep water the connection was hard to make and the rise slow. He would get his circle of earth, but to encircle the large village of nearly thirty houses, it was going to be slow. (Michirama's earth wave technique is delayed due to the deepness of the bog and thickness of the water.  Technique delayed for one extra turn).

Korine gave MUnashi a thumbs up, way ahead of her in terms of being ready for any of this. She was cowering down on the base of the boat, pulling her jacket over herself and curling up to look like a quivering pile of cloth.

The scene around them had many houses build around the trunks of cypress style trees, the foundations on the roots that stuck up out of the water and with little docks, it was not possible to see any of the earth that they wanted to get on, but they could get on the wood docks. Michirama had a water bender to deal with who was spinning about on the rushing water he rode on, sending out sharp discs of water. When it came to battlin in the bog, it was all about messing up the boat of the other people. Without a boat they would be mired in the swamp, and that meant easier pickings!

Think fast team! Krine cowering in the center, discs coming for your boat, the other four boats a ways away (they will arrive on the next turn).
