This post has potentially manipulated dice roll results.
Sirq tries his best to keep up with Hgru (Athletics: 2) but is uneasy as he notices Morn and Horatio getting stuck. He curses under his breath as he also gets stuck, and tries to come up with a way around instead of through the muck.
Morn ends up on his backside in the muck, the cold wetness immediately seeping in. (Takes 1 Stress)
Hgru sighs, "Here, give me rope."
She'll take the rope given, and carry it over to tie it around a tree branch. She returns and continues trying to help the party get unstuck, using the rope so they can help pull themselves out too.
((Of the nine rolls to cross this area of the swamp, the average has been 7.11... Hop that means you're saving things up for later!))
Horatio is able to get moving, and is able to make it to the marker where Samael waits. The next marker is visible on some ground above the water level up ahead, another 40 ft further.

Trinjya throws her self to the ground and grovels for a few seconds then Stands back up and glares at Samael.
"This is not a game you want to play with me toadsi" She hisses. Then makes her way towards the next mark but a few feet into the muck, she slips and gets stuck. She growls in frustration.

Trinjya tries to do what Hgru suggested to get out of the muck and tries to continue making her way to the next mark. She has to pass Hgru and Morn and will pull the guide out of the mud if she still is in danger when Trinjya arrives.
Athletics: 5 ((to get out of the muck))
At least that was what she meant to do. Instead the only thing she accomplishes is working herself further into the mud
Morn follows suit with Horatio, trying to imitate Hgru as he attempts to cross the much towards the marker (Athletics: 7).

edit: ok, this happens THEN My prior post.
Ath: 6
"Hgru... eh! Hgr-" *plop
mage hand to keep Morn and Horatio alive, going back and forth between them to make sure they don't drown.
Morn and Horatio get their feet stuck, and Samael's hand flaps around them.
"Don't struggle, plant your stick and slowly pull one foot free, then the next."

Samael slogs his way to the next marker, while Hgru goes to Morn, Horatio and Sirq in turn, helping to get them underway again.
((Make another Athletics roll, with advantage from her help.))

Horatio groans at the prospect of further exertion.
Wisdom save for Trinjya: 14
Athletics check: 16
Trinjya throws her self to the ground and grovels for a few seconds then Stands back up and glares at Samael.
"This is not a game you want to play with me toadsi" She hisses. Then makes her way towards the next mark but a few feet into the muck, she slips and gets stuck. She growls in frustration.
"how does it feel?" Samael asks, mirroring her prior tone. "how. does it. feel. down there?"
Hgru save: 2
The guide, in the middle of helping other members of the party through the swamp, drops forward, face first in the muck.
Athletics to get back up: 5
She thrashes, but forced off her feet, she dropped her staff, and her feet seem to be mired in the muck, and she's unable to get her head above water.

"horatio, do you think you can save the guide?"
