This is the home of Mma. Zabobo. We don't really know where she came from, but we're thinking South Africa or somewhere of the like. Her English is pretty bad. She's a witchdoctor who lives out in the wild... in the swamp... just because, well, just because she does. Approach with caution, she is quite, quite mad.

::The dragon flies over the hut with Trix in tow and makes something of a crash landing outside it.::

::Trix falls off the dragon's back and rolls over and over, curling herself up into a ball, before hitting a tree and coming to rest with her legs in the air. Hastily she tugs her skirt down and makes sure she isn't too badly hurt. She doesn't seem to be. Phew.

She stands up, and a sharp pain shoots through her ankle. She collapses to the ground again, and massages it to see if it's broken. It isn't, just badly sprained.::

(Shit.)

::The dragon prances over to Trix and appears to have a weird whistley-flutey type thing, which it drops from its mouth into her hands. Licking her entire body with a single schhhhhhhhhlerp, the dragon then trots away, takes off, and flies into the distance.::

::So Trix is left sitting there, underneath a tree, no idea where she is, a sprained ankle, dripping wet with dragon spit (ew) and what does she get for her trouble? A 'weird whistley-flutey type thing'. She suddenly has an overwhelming urge to cry.::

::Coming out of her shack, Mma. Zabobo spots Trix and grins broadly.::

"Oh. I thought was you!"

::She laughs heartily and makes her way over to Trix.::

"Now honey, you have to peel the pineapple with your teeth, like this, see?"

::She produces a pineapple from... ??? ... and begins to dig her teeth into it, scraping the tough, ragged, rough skin off. She then hands it to Trix.::

"Now you try!"

::Trix sniffs and wipes her nose.::

"Who are you? What are you talking about?"

::Mma. Zabobo plucks a cockroach off the tree behind Trix and crunches into it.::

"Mmm! Tasty tasty!"

::She throws the pineapple quite hard at Trix then pulls her up to her feet.::

"I knew you would come one day!"

::She drags Trix - on her ankle - into her shack.::

::The pineapple hits Trix on the head, not only giving her a bad headache but also giving her a few tiny cuts on the forehead. Oh, and now she has pineapple juice as well as dragon spit. Poor Trix.

She hobbles after the woman, crying again, and slightly despising herself for it, but too weak to resist her at all.::

"Ow.... please... leave me alone..."

"Aww, Sara-poo, don't cry! Mma. Zabobo's going to make it all better! You can come and see my cats."

::Pulls her up the steps, into the shack, where numerous oddities are found. Shrunken heads, human bones, weird herbs and potion ingredients, as well as a massive, bubbling cauldron in the fireplace. She shoves Trix onto a scabby couch.::

"Now you just sit there and let Mma. Zabobo look after you."

::She takes a bowl and fills it with the substance in the cauldron. She hands it to Trix. A rat's tail is poking out.::

"Try it, is good!"

"Sara-poo? Wha? I hate cats..."

::For some reason, Trix doesn't seem to be putting up any resistance. Funny, that. She seems to shrink as she curls up on the sofa, glad of some form of comfort, even like this. Suspiciously, she pokes at the soup then licks her finger. She grimaces.::

"Needs salt..."

::See, you can tell she's not feeling well from the profuse use of ellipses.::

::Mma. Zabobo picks up a flea-bitten moggy and presents it to Trix, shoving it right under her nose.::

"See? Makes all better!"

::Tosses the cat into the cauldron.::

::Somewhere deep inside her, Trix is amused to see a cat die. At the same time, she is disgusted by the whole thing. Suddenly she feels a familiar tickle in the back of her throat. She sneezes.::

(This is just what I need.)

"Ohh you're sick sick sick!"

::Mma. Zabobo pretty much pours the concoction down Trix's throat, rats 'n all.::

"There! All better now!"

::Almost instantaneously, Trix wretches, the leans forward and throws up violently. Quite a lot of it goes on her skirt, the rest on the couch and Mma Zabobo. To add to her collection of disgusting liquids. You can still make out the bits of rat in the vomit.::

"Oh! Still sick sick are we? You need more!"

::Yanks Trix up and tries to put her in the cauldron.::

::Trix sneezes loudly and spews snot and spit at Mma Zabobobobobo. Ew!::

::Ignoring Trix's sneezing, Mma. Zabobo gets her to the cauldron, and with surprising strength lifts Trix's feet up, hoisting her over the edge and headfirst into the hot (but not boiling), filthy, dead-body infested liquid.::

"She alllllll better soon!"

::She says gleefully, and gets to work skinning another pineapple with her teeth.::

::Trix does what she does when she panics. Sets the nearest living creature on fire and smokes to 3 metres away precisely. Which means that Mma Zabobo is on fire and Trix is now sitting on a shelf.::

::Laughing heartily at the hijinks, Mma. Zabobo quenches the flames without apparently doing anything, and beams at Trix with mirth.::

"Ah, you is one of them magic ones! Mma. Zabobo is magic too!"

::She starts dancing around like a madlad- well... obvious much? and chants a load of nonsense like "hooma hoyo mooba molo" and such guff.::

::Trix, fed up of these yuck-covered clothes, and for some reason driven temporarily mad, starts to take her clothes off. She sneezes again, and rubs her eyes.::

"My protogee!"

::Mma. Zabobo grabs Trix and spins her around, then dresses her in colourful saris and various things like that until she resembles Mma. Zabobo herself.::

"Now say after me;

Hama, sama, quanti, quara."

"Oh bloody hell."

::Deciding enough is enough, Trix uses telekinesis to pick Mma Zabobo up. She then takes her outside to the swamp.::

::Swinging his sword around carelessly, Link stops when he spots Trix and Mma. Zabobo, who's hovering about quite interesting. He draws his shield and gets ready to fight, unsure if these two were on his side.::

"Hey! Listen!"

::Navi flies around in front of Link's face.::

"We were meant to go to the swamp!"

(We're already in the fucking swamp!!!)

"I see. Better get going then!"

::He takes a step closer to Mma. Zabobo's shack.::

"Are we there yet?"

::Navi suddenly glows green and floats over a random rock.::

"Hey! L-"

"I know, I know, I'm looking!"

::Link takes out his trusty bow and arrow and aims at Navi while she's busy green-humping the rock. With a sigh, he then puts it away and walks over to her, crouching by the rock.::

"So what is it? Is there something here? Do I pick it up? Is it magical? What, Navi? What??"

"Why don't you ever just listen to me?"

::With a little 'ting ting ting ting' sound, Navi leaps around the rock even more.::

"LOOK!"

::Picking up the rock, Link holds it above his head, then with a 'heeeyah!' tosses it into the swamp where it sinks slowly into the swampiness. He glares at Navi.::

(That'll show you, you little twerp.)

"Don't say another word."

::He turns around and runs over to Trix.::

"Hi."

::Still holding Mma Zabobo in the air, Trix looks at Link.::

"Who the hell are you?"

"I'm Link!"

::Link says proudly.::

"The Hero of Time."

"Look!"

::Navi starts flying around Trix's head annoyingly.::

"She's a Siren. Known for their awesome attractive powers, you really have to watch that she doesn't trap you in her lusting spell! Her weak point is... ???"

::Trix is nothing if not cynical.::

"A hero, eh?"

::She bats at the little bug.::

"Get off. I don't know what you're talking about."

"A siren, eh?"

::Link moves a little closer to Trix and sheaths his sword.::

"Look, just ignore her, I do, but I have to act like I respect her and stuff or bad things will happen to me. Apparently. Soo... you're giving Navi the evil vibe, but you don't appear to be evil."

::Glances at Mma. Zabobo.::

"Well..."

::Mma. Zabobo appears not to have noticed her floating predicament.::

"You eat! Eat eat eat dog!"

(Eat... dog?)

"That's not usually on my sort of menu... I'm not into eating household animals."

::He cocks his head at Mma. Zabobo and looks at Navi expectantly.::

"Well?"

"Don't ask me, I don't know what that is."

::With that, Navi disappears into Link's tunic.::

"Look, would you please just tell me what's going on?"

"Well, uh, I don't know what's happening with you, but as I said, my name's Link. I'm looking for something called the Triforce. Here, there's an image of it on my shield."

::He pulls out his shield and points to the three triangles put together to make a larger one.::

"You wouldn't happen to have seen it anywhere, would you?"
