"General Scy. The two scouts have found that the entrance to the marshes is being blocked by the kraken spawn. There are more trying to enter and hunt the fish there." Scy listened and was visibly angry. The fact that the kraken spawn hade so far in to the rover and taken the marches was disgusting. There were too many species of monsters and animals that would suffer if they were to run rampant for too long.


    "Prepare the rest of the aquatic force to push forward. We will clear the marches around here before we go to meet the rest of Genesis army." It was a hard decision to make but if the kraken continued down the river they could cause untold damage many people and homes. The river ran through the entire continent. Not just one kingdom would be affected.


    "Understood. I will ry your information." The scout who had dolphin traits was very intelligent and had another partner with the same traits. They were very agile within the water and used some high pitched sounds to locate enemies. This quality put them well above other scouts for the aquatic division of the demi-human army.


    Scy took to the air and followed the path of the river to the marches. She knew they were taking longer to get there but danger was danger and they had a job to eliminate it. The water of the marshes grew and fell with the tides but that was good for them. Right now the water was lower and that would make taking down the kraken spawn easier. If the water was higher there would be more room for the fight to go on and more potential to get swarmed with multiple kraken spawn.


    Her eyes zoomed in on the kraken spawn taking down a bird''s nest and dragging it in to the water. This was how they had started to hunt here. The untold loss that came from these attacks was not something Scy wanted to think on. The eggs could be the next generation of an ocean bird that was important in the cycle of life here.


    Her return to where the aquatic division was waiting brought the multiple demi-human troops to her sights. There were many different traits represented. Some had shells that grew over their skin due to rtions to rock crabs and green spiked lobsters. There were also some that could be confused for merfolk due to the traits they shared with certain other fish.


    "We move forward now! Be ready for a battle. They are in the shallow waters. We have the advantage!" The shout caused the demi-humans to swim forward the lower tides were nothing that they feared. The rivers they trained in became low at times due to the season and they were ready to battle it out in such conditions.


    There was not much time in between the first demi-human shing with the first kraken spawn. The brutal attack was easily able to defeat the unaware kraken spawn. The green spiked lobster trait demi-human had tough defense and an even tougher w on their had that cut through the kraken like it was nothing. But this caused the attention of the other kraken spawn to be drawn to them.


    A few moments was all that it took for the demi-human troops to enter the more open marches. The low water forced some of them to stand but this was not a problem. They were sued to the mud and had developed ways to walk on it without getting stuck. A lot of the way they moved came from their instincts.


    The swarming of the kraken spawn was broken by their fighting but there seemed to be no end. Scy left the air and allowed her leviathan partners to leave her. They swam through the waters taking on slightlyrger forms but not their true massive size. Their teeth and sharper scales shredded the smaller kraken spawn until one encountered arger spawn.


    "I will deal with the big one. Clear the marshes in pairs and then get to the ocean entrance. We will double our speed from there." Her order was met with shouts from those above the water. They moved swiftly making short work of the soft skinned kraken spawn.


    Therger spawn shot out tentacles to wrap Scy. She managed to narrowly dodge the grab but was grazed by the barbs on the tentacles causing her to be much angrier. Fires seemed to burst within her eyes and she pulled one of her fans from under her flowing robes. The kraken spawn continued to whip its tentacles faster and faster but the low water stifled its speed.


    Scy dodged and felt her clothing being cut along with the surface of her skin. She felt her adrenalin rise and smiled while she moved in to the target of her anger. The single sh of her fan caused multiple tentacles to fall in to the water and be a distraction for the smaller kraken spawn.


    A single water jet sprayed at her but it was nothing to her. She turned her fan and deflected it before shing down again. Therger kraken had no chance of survival as she grabbed itsrger head and carried it out of the water. She could see the kraken swarming and leaving small cuts on her soldiers. She proceeded to rush forward and allowed her leviathan partners to help where it was needed. She had realized that if things were this bad here then the meeting point at the port town would be even worse.


    Her speed reached a maximum as she noticedmotion ahead. The river and march were near the port and she easily made it there with her speed. It only took a moment for her to spot Walker and drop therger kraken body to the sand. She smiled as she came within view to meet Walker.
