"The fool, as I think, at the chasm's brink,
Prone by the swamp or the marsh's side,
Did, even as I, in the end rejoice,
Since the voice of death must be His true voice."

-Arthur Edward Waite, "At The End of Things." 1906.

Useful Info

Swamp worms are aquatic predators, much like sharks and giant goldfish but faster and more powerful. They can deal significant damage to lightly armoured characters, but fortunately they are unable to reach you unless you're standing in or adjacent to water. They are common pests in the Swamp, and appear in a handful of other vaults.
