The Swamp of Lizards

Today I was leaving Trinsic with no real destination. I wanted to check out the west coast, so I went south first, to visit the Shrine of Honor. On my trip I came across a spectre and a headless - monsters I never had seen in this area.
On my way along the west coast I found a ruin with a strange pentagram symbol in the middle. Maybe it had been the house of a mage, but now the symbol didn't seem to have any function at all. I checked out the place but couldn't find anything unusual. So I continued heading north-east.
Finally I found the Shrine of Honor. I kneeled for a while in this quiet and peaceful place, sending a prayer to the Gods of Britannia or whoever guided me on my way, begging for protection and support on my further travels through this strange world.
Maybe one day the secrets of Britannia will be revealed to my eyes...
I was now near the Destard dungeon and walked across the nearby peninsula. It was a swampy area, and my feet sunk deep into the mud. Suddenly I heard a hissing noise behind my back. I quickly turned around, just in time to repulse the attack of a Lizard Man. After I had defeated and looted him, two other Lizards approached. I tried to separate them, which wasn't easy. By the skin of my teeth I conquered my enemies and went home again with my prey.
