So what is your next step, do you go to investigate the body or do you go around the ant swarm not bothering with them?

Celebdan first pulls out his wand of longstrider, and shortly manages to activate it to increase his speed.
Once done, he pulls out a vial of alchemist's fire and gets ready.

He studies the ant swarms to see if he can recall anything special about them from his studies in the Church. Will leave GM to decide what info is useful based on his roll.

Sorry for the delay, I posted this on Tuesday, but it must not of shown up.
@ Celebdan, it is an average swarm, meaning it has swarm traits. It's bite carries a poison that drains your strength.
As Bryzglo approaches the body, the ants start to swarm towards him.

"Uhh... I can try to slow them down. I don't have much else."
Standard Action
Loni casts Entangle, trying to ensnare the swarms in place. The forest comes alive to ensnare those inside of it.
I put an indicator of the edges of the entangle. It should take the vast majority of the left side of the map.
Reflex DC 14 to resist. If failed, it has the entangled condition and is stuck in place, and can try to make a move action to try to escape (DC 14 Strength or Escape Artist), but the Entangle is still difficult terrain regardless. At the end of any creature's turn who is in the Entangle but is not entangled, they must make a Reflex Save to avoid being entangled. Any creature that enters the Entangle must immediately make the Reflex Save.
Free Action
He tells Drootina to defend him.

Loni shrugs. "We've got more fire coming? I don't have anything for this."
Delay
Unless Produce Flame can help, but I don't think it does. Want to delay either way to not be sandwiched between the two swarms on initiative. :p

The red swarm should be burning from Celebdan's alchemist's fire from last round, right?
The chemicals that landed on the red swarm continues to burn furiously.

Seeing the burning swarm approaching, Celebdan races around the other side to spread out from their potential attack. He then pulls out another vial of alchemist's fire.
