The Great Parish Swamp / Gramp's Journal takes Richard on an incredible adventure into Otrindara's realm of truth. With pirates founding the strange town of Parish it continues with Genny and Jonah being taken by the ever present wall of fog. Cutting the Great parish Swamp in half it keeps our world of denial and their world of truth apart. Entering it to save loved ones, Richard seeks help from the Daka, Gargans, Implets, and other Otrindaran's to fight the likes of pirates, slavers, Shadeyla, and an army of darkmoor and shadowmoor along the way. Encountering plants and animals, the likes of which have never been seen before, Richard will discover secrets the swamp has kept for centuries. All of this will lead him to discover the truth about the legends of Parish and reveal his true ancestry. A place where past, present, and future all come together will reveal the unknown connection between a legendary pirate, Richard's godfather Jonah, and Richard himself. In the first book in the Reeshard and The Great Parish Swamp series, the prophecy of the one has begun, and in saving genny and finding Jonah, Richard has unknowingly become a part of it all.
