Ella had always thought it to be quite cool, the whole having a swamp in the castle thing. She supposed the Professors weren't too happy about it at first but hey, it was coming in handy now! ...Even if she'd much rather be out looking at those really cool tanks.

Characteristics of swamps, eh? Ella didn't know too much actually but she was pretty sure that swamps were often surrounded by trees. Oh and that...well they were near sources of water where it couldn't just like...drain out. That meant that the land didn't slope really, yeah? Raising her hand, the blonde waited quietly for her turn to speak. "Professor, I believe plant life around swamps mostly consists of trees." And this was because...well because the soil was always soaked, yeah? Rather than just being watered occasionally.
