A large, gurgling pit of quicksand. Many adventurers and poor critters lie at the bottom of the pit. The pit is surrounded by an extensive swampland and is shielded by the many trees and shrubs that surround it.
Quicksand Pit, Swamp

I am a young child who lives on a farm. I do my chores each morning. I am thin and malnourished.
Hey there. Hello there child, I am a stranger from a foreign land. I see. You look different, you aren't from around here. No, I come from the land across the sea.  Is this Quicksand pit where you live? Your funny. Of course not. The quicksand is dangerous. Oh, I have never seen any such thing before.  How does one get to the other side? You have to go around it through the swamp. The quicksand pit would eat you alive. Well, thank you for the warning kind child. No problem. I guess you haven't seen a quicksand pit before? Not at all, my land is a land of jungle and mountains. I've never been in a jungle. What's it like? Hot, steamy, vicious predators . . . not great if I'm being honest.
