I'm stuck at the swampy area of part one in this game. I have 13 items in my inventory. They are my notepad, the stone, the bag, two sticks, the poker, the flask, a glass splinter, a bottle filled with black fluid, some liana (a vine), a box of matches........and that's all I can remember for right now.

What am I supposed to do when I get to the swampy area? Please help!
