Eh, you cannot just waltz in unprepared, poison resist and rested buff up 100% of the time. Work on your farms and food, save Eikthyr for when you need to Wilson. Avoid aboms and 2 star draugrs until you have swamp tier gear. At night there will be Wraiths flying around in the trees, so be prepared for that.

You are just looking for some turnip seeds and the ability to sneak into a few sunken crypts for some iron. Once you start rocking some swamp tier(iron age) gear and food it becomes a lot easier.

Then you go to the Mountain biome and run into a 2 star wolf and it's the black forest to swamp curve all over again.
