Bend! F rogs in all shapes and sizes, birds that ambushed with pecks nearly as fast as Jake’s arrows, and a plethora of other annoying animals hounded Jake, Sylphie, and Carmen as they made their way deeper into the mangroves.

They all made use of the many ambush possibilities offered by the dense branches and leaves above or the river below.

The mangrove forest was also more than a little annoying fighting in, especially for an archer like Jake
