Account

The witness camped alone overnight on a forested river island. After exchanging wood knocks with an unseen source to the south, the witness heard slow cautious bipedal footsteps approach and a loud splash in the channel separating the islands, followed later by fainter steps retreating. The next morning the witness searched the adjacent island but found no clear footprints.
