9 begins moving in what looks to be the right direction, or at least one that would make more sense. Despite the best of intentions the party managed to make some distance away from the trail she had noticed earlier. Fortunately her keen elven eyesight manage to catch the trail she saw earlier and head towards it.
Unfortunately the party still managed to move far enough away to attract the attention of something moving deep within the murky pools of water in this area of the swamp. It approached carefully, long and dark, it's large body hidden beneath the thick vegetation on the swap floor.
As everyone moved forward, from behind them a slithering form suddenly appeared and lashed out at Moira at the back of the party.
A massive black scaled snake suddenly appeared from somewhere underneath the the swamp floor. It's hard to believe how such a Giant Snake could stay hidden so well.
It snapped its head forward with a deadly bite. But its fangs only scrapped against Moira's well crafted leather armor, failing to find purchase. With it's surprise gone the giant snake coiled up into a striking pose, ready to attack again.
Sora felt more then saw the huge thing behind them attacking, regardless her reaction was the same. In a single lightning quick action she turned around and drew out her swords, ready to fight back against whatever was there. She wasn't really expecting a giant snake, didn't even realize they got this big, but wasn't about to back down now.

As soon as she can, moves the minimum amount to position herself to attack the snake, looking for the best advantage possible and attacks from stealth, main hand first Attack.
Attack: 19 Damage: 7 plus sneak attack 3,
then she attacks with her off hand dagger.
Attack: 26 Damage: 8
After her attack she steps away from the snake (remaining movement)
9 approaches the snake and stands 10 feet away from it. She casts booming blade and cracks her whip and the snake’s torso, goading it to attack her. If she has any movement left, she will step 5 feet back. Attack:8 Damage: 5

Lady? Witt responds to 9. The Lady Death? Goodness, I don't think I've ever met one of her priests before. That's fascinating. I would like to ask you so much. I suppose I...
At which point, a loud cry from Moira interrupts the conversation, and Witt spins round in shock, one hand going to his shortbow.
A loud thunder combines with the sharp crack of 9's whip, but the massive snake dodges their body out of the way. The huge beast proving more agile then it's size would suggest, causing the attack and spell to fail.
Both of Sora's blades land hard against the snake's skin, dealing significant damage past its thick hide. Yet the massive beast seems to just take it, and shows no sign of slowing down.

Witt runs back quickly before aiming and letting lose an arrow into the giant snake creature. The attack hits true and the arrow manages to sink into flesh between two black scales. Once again the massive beasts seems to simply shrug this damage away at first. Suddenly it lets out a loud sharp screech as Mary removes her blade, sunk to the hilt, from a spot between two other scales hitting something vital in her attack that no one even saw, certainly not the snake. The high elf slashes with her offhand dagger, digging a bit more of the beast's flesh but it's merely rubbing salt in the wound by comparison.
The snake reels back hissing loudly as its long thin tongue flickers out of its mouth before it lunges forward with mouth wide open, its vicious fangs gleaming menacingly as they strike twice in quick succession!
The first attack is against Sora Bite Attack: 11 Damage: 12
And the second attack is against Mary Bite Attack: 21 Damage: 9
The first bite managed to land as the sharp fangs slide between her armor and dig into the human's flesh. For a moment it looks like the snake is about to swallow Sora whole as the massive head covers all of her shoulder.

Quickly it snaps back and lashes out again against Mary, but the elf proves too agile as well, and manages to leap out of the way of the second strike.

Oh my, says Witt, moving away from the large and scary creature as far as he can (30 feet) and then attacking with his shortbow:
