As the group moved along the coastline, keeping in the shade at the edge of the jungle to avoid the worst of the afternoon sun the keen eyesight of the group guided them around several dangers; a stand of gympie-gympie trees that would have incapacitated or possibly killed some of the group, a stretch of beach that hid a large nest of huge bulldog ants, an enormous python curled up within the underbrush.......and a number of half-glimpsed figures beneath the jungle canopy that faded away as soon as they were spotted.....
As evening began to close in they were making good time.....though water was becoming an issue and a number of the crew complained of aches, pains and hunger. Coming up on a protected cove Uce estimated they had another hour or so before dark....there was a rocky outcropping a little further along but it looked like it would be dark before they reached it.
While they are setting up camp Khutulun has a loo around for a good lenght of wood that she could care into a mask of the crocodile that nearly took her life.
Krikoris gets a fire going and the locals manage to gather enough shellfish and coconuts for a reasonable meal.
As the others get a much needed rest Mal takes watch looking out over the crystal waters with the moon and stars overhead in a clear sky, he hears many noises coming from the jungle but is unable to determine what they are..or what is causing them so spends most of the time on edge.
Khutulun takes over for Mal who collapses almost immediately into sleep, she spends time carving at a piece of driftwood, her eyes are able to pierce the darkness in ways Mals weren't built to and she determines most of the sounds are from small mammals, birds and reptiles among the undergrowth of the jungle. It is nearing the end of her watch and she is about to rouse Cinta to take over when the hairs stand up on the back of her neck.....there is something approaching through the jungle, all of the small wildlife flees the area as Khutulun sees half a dozen figures approaching through the trees.
They appear to be a group of grey-fleshed men with bound hands and feet floating a few feet above the ground, their features are rotted and their jaws constantly work as they snap and grind their teeth together. Their eyes burn with cold white light as they scent flesh....
( Roll Initiative: . Assuming Khutulun wakes you and you get over 10 you can take your action.)
( Khutulun you alone get to act in a Surprise Round as you saw them coming before they reached the group and everyone else is asleep.)

Khutulun:
Khutulun knows they are some form of ghost or pocong....but she has not seen their like before.
Khutuluns throwing blade sinks into the dead flesh as she cries out and she is heartened to see the feral shade is paused by it for a moment.
Uce readies himself as the dead rush in, teeth snapping....
The Lokanan crew rush enmasse into the shallows of the bay yelling and making warding signs, Hani and Wara followed them but drew their knives as they did so turning back to face the attacking horrors....

Mal uses his bonus action to disengage from the creature and move as far away as possible - then he takes aim with his bow at the Pocong Pemburu attacking Uce.
Krikoris moves to walk with Khutulun and help her if needed, letting the locals lead the way with their greater experience.
"I am fine now... just needed to catch my breath and admire my new set of scars.. " she says with a smirk.

Krikoris glances at the others, "I will defer to those who know the land better. I can help get a fire going if we'd like though?"
Mal notes the weary faces of the sailors and agrees. "This would be a good spot. I'll keep first watch."
"Second"
