^{[72.4, 42]}

.

•  Water Pincer slain (6)

Description

There are dangers in the pools. The latest and most vicious are the water pincers. A time has come for their numbers to be diminished, and I am no longer up to the task.

If you could clear out some of the water pincers, I would be very appreciative. Beware their numbers... sometimes it's best to lure them from the pool-side rather than wading all the way in.

Completion

The water pincers are strange creatures. They seem drawn to still water.
