Nagomi

As you paddle through the swamp, you hear movement in the trees behind you. Looking back, you notice a flash of bronze slip beneath the murky water. You pause, your gaze fixed at the location. Suddenly, you feel yourself losing balance in your seat. Turning, you see a lamia has pulled herself onto the front of your boat, her long serpent-like tail disappearing into the water below. Uhm...hello... Uh....I was just wondering what you are. Her eyes wide with curiosity.
