Crown Of The World~
This is the single highest tree in all of the Great Vaasa, and from it
you can see much of the sea of green. Spread out before you is the
beautiful canopy of the mighty forest with the rare spire lancing out of
it, toward the sun. Mounted nearby on a large branch is the Horn of
Ral'airdn. A blow from this @bhorn@n can be heard for miles through the
forest. Below you the branches form a natural ladder leading down to the
altar of Tarafas.

horn~
Hanging from a branch by leather straps, the horn is a beautiful tool.
The ends are bound in silver and engraved along it's length are elven and
forest scenes. The horn is said to come from the Ral'airdn. A rare and
dangerous beast that roams only the deepest parts of the great forest.

5 spires stone~
The spires of stone are the only things that interupt the sea of green,
besides perhaps the enclosing mountains to the west and south. The
spires are sharp points of rock, thousands of feet tall, conical
formations pointing toward the heavens.

Taking a huge breath .... you blow the horn! The sound of it echos

Weapon Smithy~
You stand in a large hut with walls of leather, covered in some substance
that must protect it from the stray spark. The floor is a huge flat slab
of stone, and standing in the middle is a great open hearth. It is quite
hot in here, and lit by the hearth in shifting yellows and reds. The
trunk of the tree composes the north east wall, and hanging from it and
from many branches that crisscross the room, are items of war.

Armor Shoppe~
You have entered a well-lit elven shop. Two walls are near-flat trunks,
while the other two are tightly woven branches and living wood and look
woven well enough to keep the warmth in and the cold winds out. Covering
the walls are articles of armor, suits of leather, cloaks for protection
and warmth. Cases with delicate crystal panes hold suits of metal, some
bronze, some chain. Others hold glinting helms and shiny plates.

Base Of Branch~
You come to the base of a large branch that grows from the trunk, and
runs away to the south. Above you, secured on three huge branches, is a
stone floored building, built against the side of the trunk. How they
got that huge slab of stone up here is beyond you. There is a flap
covering an opening, which you could go up and use to enter.

Tree Top, Above Weapon Smithy~
You are standing on a good sized branch far above the forest floor, with
the sound of banging metal drifting up from just below you. Above you
the massive trunk of this enormous tree reaches toward the sky, though
the size and frequency of the limbs do not allow you to ascend any
further. From this vantage point you can look out over much of the vast
forest, and it is truly breathtaking. Far off in the distance to the
east, you can see one of the great rock spires vaulting from the sea of
green and spearing towards the sky.

rock spire~
The top of the forest is a sea of green, as far as the eye can see,
undulating only a little. But here and there, grey spires of stone, like
spears, jab upward out of the sea, reaching toward the sky. Their slopes
are too steep for much foliage, but there is some.

Base Of Branch~

Two enormous trunks stand close together here, limbs gnarled together.
Below you is a very sturdy looking shop of sorts, built between the two
trunks and putting the gnarled limbs to good use.

Huge Branch~
You stand on a huge branch that extends from the main trunk to the east
and runs away through the foliage to the west. There is another branch
nearby that you could use to get to a pair of trees to the north, from
where come sounds of clinking metal. Looking over the side, you catch a
rare glimpse of the ground far below and guess you are at least 250 ft
up.

pouches, torches and other general staples. There is a hide covering an
oval opening to the east, and a spiral stair leading down off in the
corner.

Deck - Side Of Trunk~
You are standing on a semicircle platform built on the side of this
enormous trunk. There are no branches nearby and a lot of open space.
In the daytime the light trickles down and shines on this spot, and in
the evening there is dusky shade. It seems to be some sort of short
deck, and with its two chairs, it looks like a great place just to sit
back and watch the great depths of the forest.

This shop is formed by the dense branches all about you and a woven

trunk of the tree that leads below to the main level of town. Above you
the branches form a ladder that leads above the shop. Herbs are hung to

High Tree Top~
You are standing on a good sized branch far above the forest floor.
Above you the massive trunk of this enormous tree reaches toward the sky,
though the size and frequency of the limbs do not allow you to ascend any
further. From this vantage point you can look out over much of the vast
forest, and it is truly breathtaking. Far off in the distance to the
east, you can see one of the great rock spires vaulting from the sea of
green and spearing towards the sky.

This area is apparently for the worship of the elven creator god the
Dawnstar, Tarafas. It is, however, not formed by elves in any way except
for a large symbol which is painted on a large piece of bark overhead.
Below you the branches are seperated into the form of stairs, and above

light branches obscure the view in, but allow great viewing out over the

On the Entry Platform~
This is the main entry to the largest village of the Llewyrr in the Great
Vaasa. Not many guards are needed here, as trespassers are usually dealt
with long before getting this close. A rope-ladder dangles over the edge
here, disappearing in the many levels of leaves and canopy foliage, and a
walkway leads away east, its planks seeming to have been shaped from the
large branch that supports it.

Forest Floor~
The deer trail winds its way around some very large shuvanas here. Some
very large ferns and other undergrowth grow here, with great fronds even
arching out over the trail. Part of the trail even begins to feel like
a tunnel. You feel watched, but can't spot the source.

that light the platform when it gets dark. The platform extends south

The Observatory Platform~
This large platform seems to be built from sturdy logs. The only
structure of it's kind in the whole city. This also appears to be one of
the few areas with a completely unobstructed view of the heavens. All
about the perimeter of this platform sticks, are mounted, pointing to
locations where various constellations are spotted at certain times of
the year. In the center of the platform a large hollow log is mounted,
on some kind of stand.

You stand in a glade atop a small cliff which drops away on your left

give this glade enough birth that the sunlight shines, warming your skin
and making motes of pollen glow as they float upon the wind. A faint
animal trail catches your eye, leading into the forest to the east, or
you think you can get down the cliff to the north.

of some forest animals, begin to rebuild their homes.

With dark glee you begin to destroy the small homes. You kick in the

From out on the swift flowing Windlass you can see the eastern shore.
The large shuvana trees arc over most of the river creating a sort of
tunnel. You can go back to the bank to the east, or you can travel north

Faint Trail~
As you walk through the forest, drops of dew from the trees above drip
onto your face and body keeping you cool. Your footsteps leave small
imprints in the fertile soil along with those of numerous animals, large
and small. To the east the large root of a shuvana tree blocks the faint
trail, and to the west and south the trail continues.

You crawl under the large arcing form of a giant tree root to continue
along the faint path. Above you the forest life can be heard moving
about as well as way down here, on the soft forest floor. Far to the
west you hear the soft sound of a stream or river. To the north and east
the trail continues.

As you walk along the faint trail large ferns and tree branches brush
against you tickling your skin. To the north the massive trunk of a
shuvana tree towers into the canopy blocking out almost all yellow
light. The trail almost disapears below the giant ferns to the east, and
to the west you see a large root arc over the trail.

The smoothness of the faint trail is interrupted by a large root from a

large ferns grow blocking sight past a dozen paces, sometimes feeling
like rooms, formed by nature. To the north and west the faint trail
continues through the forest.

getting too close to it. The trail enters an area of massive ferns to
the south and continues to the north along the stream as well.

drifts to your ears and calms your mind. In the distance you hear the
snap of a twig breaking under foot, or claw. The faint trail leads to
the east and south from here.

Faint Trail~
As you walk along the faint trail large ferns and tree branches brush
againts you tickling your skin. To the north the massive trunk of a
shuvana tree towers into the sky blocking out almost all light. The
trail almost disapears below the giant ferns to the east, and to the west
you see a large root arc over the trail.

Island Sanctuary~
This small patch of grass is sectioned off from the trail by a small
meandering stream which bubbles its way off into the distance to a
distant lake or ocean. All about you, except to the west, large ferns
and trunks prevent further passage in, or out, of this secluded paradise.
As you stare at the dew gleaming on the new spring grass you realize that
not a creature in the world can hurt you in this secluded haven of the
forest.

wonder why such a beautiful place gets so few travelers, or why it is

why, the mountains that you must cross to get anywhere. To the south the
trail continues towards a mountainous trail, while to the east the trail

Laws of the Highlands
All manner of creature may enjoy the beauty and adventure
that await them in the highlands, however, no one but
respectable highland folks shall attempt to make a home or
practice their trade in the mountainous regions.
Highlanders will always strike back when one of their own
is wounded.
Let the fine highland folks know the laws, and the Heroes
of the Highlands enforce them.@n

Mountain Trail~
The trail seems fairly washed out here, a large gulley runs across. The
recent lack of rain however has left it dry and dusty with not so much as
a drop of water present. To the north, the trail journeys towards the
great Vaasa and the legends beyond, whereas to the west it leads down to
the valley below.

Mountain Trail~
For a small stretch the rocky mountain trail flattens out and heads simply
east and west. It appears that the original trail had been where the
large landslide is to the north. Now all that is left of the trail is a
large cliff.

Mountain Trail~
Almost at the bottom of the mountains you are just above the tree line.
Looking out across the Medienne forest you see only the pointed green
tree tops. To the east the mountains leads up the mountain towards the
summit and the mountains to the Medienne forest leads almost directly
down a cliff.

Mountain Trail~
Here at the base of the mountain you sense a great fear that lies upon
the slopes of this ancient chain of mountains. A dark fear is present in
your heart, warning of something above. The trail here is far less
traveled and is rockier than that to the west. Above you lies a small
cliff in which you must climb to continue on the trail.

Base of the Mountain Trail~
The soft dirt of the forest trail has turned into hard boulders and rocks
of the mountains. The trees begin to part, overcome by boulders. To the
south a soft dirt path leads into the Medienne forest, while to the east a
dirt and rock trail leads up into the mountains.

As the trail twists to avoid one of the large shuvana trunks, you are
forced to climb over one of their equally massive roots. Small birds and
animals can be heard all over the forest chattering to one another. The
trail turns to avoid one of the shuvana trees and heads north and west.

completely covered in a slick moss and trees even grow from the cracks in
its surface. The trail splits here, branches leading to the east, west,

Inside a Root~
The hollowed out root bends to the north and west here as it burrows its
way through the dirt of the Vaasa. The walls of the tunnel twist and
turn to conform to the gigantic root.

Dead-end of a root tunnel~
The tunnel ends abruptly as the root becomes too small for even the
woodworms to tunnel. The walls of the root have become very rough and
there is a layer of black, sticky sawdust coating everything. To the
south you see the root becomes much larger.

Food Room~
This small chamber, hewn from a root of a shuvana, serves as a storeroom
for the pulp-wood food of the woodworms. Large piles of stored pulp line
the walls, waiting to be fed to the young grubs. A branch of the root
heads east, where you see a small chamber. While to the south the
hollowed root continues.

force of the new tree, the tree is already dying. On the tip of the live
root small gnaw marks are visible. The dirt tunnel leads back to the
west.

Food Storage Chamber~
This small storage chamber is filled with strange golden globules. From
what you know these globules are the excretion of a small insect that
feeds on the buds of the shuvana trees. It seems that these globules are
what the queen eats for food. To the north you see another small chamber
hewn from the dead wood of the tree.

[Fyli] In l globule, globual is wrong. Insect like should have a hyphen too.

golden globuals~
These small golden globuals are the excretion of a race of insect like
creatures that live in the Vaasa. The queen of the woodworms eats these
and then excretes a gene laced liquid on the new buds of the Shuvana
trees, these buds are eaten by the insects and then the genes are carried
to other woodworms queens. Thus freshening the gene pool.

Up in the Canopy~
The sounds and sights of the canopy are flourishing all about you. Birds
and other animals call to each other with a tone of happiness. To the

Out Along a Limb~
You are standing on one of the many, now dead, limbs of this massive
shuvana. The branches of this tree and other shuvanas mingle to form a
sort of platform in which you can walk on. While to the east you can
step onto the branch of another tree. And to the west you can go back
towards the mighty shuvana.

Entwined Limbs~
You are standing on a large mat of naturaly entwined branches in the

the time these silent giants have been growing for. Small birds flit
about you as you intrude upon their peaceful habitat. To the south you
can climb back to the main branch.

The burbling waters of the Windlass continue winding their way along its
time-set path. Ancient rocks cut wide swaths in the waterflow as it is
forced to rush around the implacable objects. For the rocks to have
lasted so long, they must have once been huge. In a few more centuries
they will be little more than so many pebbles lining the Windlass's bed.

formed by the ferns and small bushes.

Faint Forest Trail~
Large broad leaved bushes and lucious green ferns brush gently against
your body as you make your way along the faint trail. To the north the
small trail plods its way up a small hill covered in green ferns, while
to the west it leads towards the bubling sound of a river.

Faint Forest Trail~
The faint forest trail lazily climbs up and over the mounded form of a
long fallen tree trunk, now home to a myriad of forest life. Just in the
distance to the south west you can hear the soothing sounds of a forest
stream. To the east and south the small path continues through the Vaasa.

The Edge of a Small Valley~
The dense cover of the forest opens up to the east as the trail drops
down a steep slope into a lush green valley. Through the break in the

Middle of a Steep Slope~
The large shuvana trees and other common plants of the Vaasa seem to be
missing from this small hillside patch, and only small grasses and large
reeds grow from this fertile soil. To the east the trail leads to the
bottom of a valley, and to the west it leads up the steep slope, out of
the valley.

The small valley you are in is even more wet than the rest of the Vaasa.
Deep prints from the feet of deer and other large animals litter the
ground near the water's edge; you also notice the prints of some small
up-right creature. The soft animal track continues to the north and

branches have piled up over the years clogging the flow of water even
more and contributing to the rushing noise.

It appears the builders of the ruins above also created a series of

to the south by fallen stone which created the hole above, while to the

the eastern stone wall.

above. Detritus covers the ground in a carpet of leaves and sticks,
concealing the dirt below. There are no signs of any trails here.

One of the lesser trees, an oak it appears, has fallen in some long
forgotten storm and now lays propped in the crook of a young shuvana
tree's branches. Small by comparison to the older shuvanas, the young
shuvana still dwarfs the oak significantly.

One of the great shuvana trees blocks the woods to the east of here, its
massive bole blocking even sight in that direction. You stand in a small
clearing near its base, formed when other plants were unable to put out
roots deep enough to claim the nutrients in the soil already claimed by
the shuvana.

Trees and vegetation envelope you in what appears to be an endless sea of

might be unsettling, for no other forest seen can compare to what lies
before you.

back underground. Large green ferns and mosses grow around the secluded

The trees, ancient beyond reckoning, appear to mirror the clearing

to have grown this way naturally, somehow defying the general chaotic
growth of the wilds.

All about you stand the boles of immense shuvanas and no sign of any
trail. The only differentiation in the landscape seems to be a tight
little clearing visible to the north. To the east and west, the forest
undergrowth is thick enough to be a burden. If you did not want to enter
the clearing, perhaps you could find your way back to where you were by
heading away from it, to the south.

Path Through the Heather - Before a Mighty Shuvana~
The sunlight ripples off the ocean of heather here, as it waves gently in
the breeze. The small leaves quiver as small animals and birds disturb
their dreamy sway. Little insects chirrup, basking on the leaves. The
scent of flowers blows across the sea of heather. The trees here are
slightly smaller than the huge shuvanas in the deeper forest, however one
of the massive trees grows here. It looks old enough to be from a time
when this was still part of the all encompassing forest, and the pool was
only a puddle. It towers over the surrounding trees, standing tall and
proud, the remnant of a long forgotten past. The bark is rough and very
hard, but there looks to be small cuts up the side closest to the forest.
From the west you can just hear the sounds of a river washing through the
trees.

A Home High Within a Shuvana~
A large, open-plan house has been cut into the trunk of the Shuvana at
the widest point. The tree is still alive around it, embracing the home
its its mighty branches. The room seems to have been built long ago, in
a time forgotten to generations past. The furnishings, however, seem new
and well maintained. The decorations are cleverly made in sylvan colours
and blend in well. A balcony is built out on a limb to the east, while
to the west stands a door. Handholds carved into the tree's mighty trunk
can be climbed to the field of heather below.
~
If this is an elven home, you might want to change it a bit. Check out

peace and tranquility. A heavy wooden bar can be moved to lock the thick
door to the east.

Faint Trail~
The abundant greenery of the forest floor is broken where a
well-travelled trail winds its way through the vegetation. The sheer
density of the undergrowth crossing the path impedes progress, however
the trail could be followed east or south with a little effort. To the
north, a thin game trail leads into deeper vegetation.

Faint Trail~
A thin trail carves the only path through the dense vegetation of the
forest floor. The small openings between the forest growths are barely
big enough for birds, rabbits and other small game to use. Even deer are
restricted to the paths here. The narrow path you traverse heads on only
a short way in either direction before it turns out of sight.

The greenery of the forest rises up on either side of you clearly
defining the game trail upon which you travel. Several breaks in the

through the plants and into the hollow, or continue along either north or

At the Base of an Oak Tree~
You stand in a small hollow in the woods, at the center of which stand a
large oak tree. The ground about the base is littered in acorn
fragments, chewed through by foraging animals long ago. Gnarled oak
roots occassionaly break the uniform surface of the ground. Dense
vegetation surrounds the hollow on all sides except the east. In that
direction the vegetation is thin enough to push through and reach what
seems to be a trail.

The oak, though obviously ancient, is dwarfed by nearby shuvana trees.
Its nearest branches are still high overhead, yet enough rough

just make it safely to the lower branches, the rest of the climb should
be relatively easy.

densely packed leatherleaf shrubs. The narrow leaves, though not so
tightly clustered as some growths, grow in such profusion that they
quickly obscure sight. As you move about the leaves brush against you;
somewhat rough-textured with scores of tiny dots covering their surface.
~

leaves leaf~
The leaves are longer than they are wide, and rounded at both ends giving
them a narrow appearance. The surface of the leaves are textured with
many small bumps which give them a rough, almost leathery feel. Though a
few of the leaves have curling brown ends where insects have devoured
them, most of them are a healthy green.

mosses grasses weeds 1 down~
Despite the ample vegetation you can make out the rare patch of bare soil.
The grasses are short, and pale existing on as little sunlight as
possible this far down in the forest growth. The moss, in striking
contrast, is a vibrant green and must subside on the nutrients in the
soil moreso than the sunlight to have such a healthy appearance in an
area so long devoid of direct sunlight.

A spray of color forms where countless little flowers, the largest

vines. The twining vines wrap their way up around the boles of the oaks,
maples and shuvanas nearby in great profusion, nearly hiding the trees
from sight.

A break in the nearly seemless mass of the canopy high overhead provides
quite a dramatic change in the level of light. In daylight the break
provides a swath of light wherein flattened grasses show that animals
must like to rest. At night the difference must be equally striking as

darkness that exists everywhere else.

The dark soil lays in a long swath along the ground and seems to be the

Broad leaves with little spikes around their fringe lay close to the

Though there are no actual trails appearing here, countless animal tracks
cross the ground here as if it were a popular gathering spot. The tracks
seem to lead off mostly to the north and east, deeper into the forest, or
westward into a large clearing.

Game Trail in the Vaasa~
The green vegetation begins to thicken to the north, forcing the ambling
tracks of the animals onto a single game trail. To the south the
undergrowth is less dense and the tracks widen out onto several paths.

A good number of obvious animal tracks lead in from the west only to
rapidly disapear as the ground becomes less yielding to the east. The
low bushes begin to gain size and mass toward the east as well, their
root systems leechng more of the moisture from the ground to dry it. As
the vegetation grows thicker, the way becomes harder forcing you to
frequently move branches that obstruct your path.

The thick tangle of branches from the dense shrubbery around you makes
progress a little difficult. As you travel about you are buffeted by
thick branches that yield only with hard work on your part. Countless
leaves on the branches tend to obscure your sight beyond a few feet in
any direction. No matter how many of the branches you break back or move
aside, there always seems to be two more ready to spring into the space
created.

A gentle breeze carries on it the gentle sound of birdsong from almost

various and sundry levels of forest growths that is the undisputed master
of this terrain. Between the mosses and grasses on the ground, the
multitude of small and large shrubs and the great trees, not a bare patch

A dieing elm stands its last years forlorn of leaves like some kind of

only a gaping hole remains giving clear view of the upper canopy that
consists solely of shuvana trees. Around the elm, nearby foliage seems
healthy and green.

The dense greenery provides little choice of where to go. Each step is
dictated by what can or can't be moved and several times you are forced
to backtrack to find a way around a tangle too dense to push through.
Tangles like this form excellent warrens for smaller animals who can hide
from larger predators such as you.

As you wend your way through the trailless woodland you are forced to
contend with unyielding branches, troublesome roots and tricky footing
over rock and leaf-filled depressions. Though difficult and at times
even treacherous to get here, the woods yield as many rewards as it does
dangers. The crystal drops of clear dew hanging from tilted leaves yield
up such treasures as small rainbows in the air. The gentle breeze
carries with it the aromatic boquet of nearby flowers and the sound of a
nearby brook burbles along with it.

Amidst the proliferation of vegetation, both ground shrubbery and

spent years decomposing. Surrounded on all sides by greenery, the
remains have become the focal point for a horde of insects. Trails of
termites and wood ants, among other things, swarm over parts of the
fallen giant assisting the natural forces of decay that are slowly
creating enriched soil for the new growth.

shrubbery greenery plants bushes branches~
The greenery is a complex tangle of countless plants in all their
splendor. Among the mass of verdant growth you see the yellow tinged
leaves of euonymous, the serrated leaves of black alder and holly. To
the south the mix of vegetation is sparsely dotted by little white
flowers that identify the plants as sweet pepperbush.
~
E
canopy~
Two distinct layers can be seen from the forest floor. The closest is
sparse and formed by the smaller trees; oaks, maples, birch and the like.
Higher above that canopy exists the lush, verdant canopy formed by the
shuvana trees as their lower branches arc outwards and mingle with each
other.
~
E
shuvanas trees~
While shuvanas form the majority of the trees in the woods, others
species do mingle in large numbers as well. Among them you can make out
oaks, maples, birch, and elm nearby.

Clearing~
The treeline stops abruptly in a nearly perfect arc from south to west
here. Where the treeline stops, a fluffy field of heather quickly takes
over and stretches a long ways off north to east in a rough circle. A
break in the trees west of here shows a spot where animals sometimes
enter or leave the forest.

Halfway Up an Oak Tree~
The thick branches of the ancient oak must measure nearly four feet in
diameter on average. Green leaves surround you as they sprout from the
ends of smaller branches. You are in the lower branches of this ancient
oak. It looks as if it would much easier to climb further up now that
there are ample branches for hand and foot holds, however, the way back
down looks quite difficult.

This is as high as the thinning branches will allow you to safely climb.
Any higher and they would probably snap, and falling from this height
would most assuredly be fatal. You are close enough to the top that you
can see past the thinning branches and leaves. Not so far overhead now
are the lower branches of the shuvanas that form the dense forest canopy.

You stand amidst the charred remains of trees older than most living
beings. The blackened stumps are all that remain of a host of once
mighty shuvana trees. The ground is coated in a fine layer of charred
wood and ash. The devastation only stops here because the mountains to
the west prevent passage any further.

Amidst the ash and blackened remains, you can just make what was once a
well-tended path. The trail leads off to the east and west through a
vast field of debris. The charred remains of massive trees, still
smoking from their recent demise, have fallen to form effective barriers
so that what remains of the path is still the easiest route to tread.

The waste surrounding you pulls in close to the sides of the trail in
great mounds. It looks as if someone, or something, rather large has
been shoveling about the debris to make more room. Most of the debris
seems to have been moved here from the east where it is much clearer.
Amidst the mounds of ash and burning wood, you make out the cracked,
blacked stumps of bones as well.

You are at the edge of a field of devastation. Mounds of still

Burned and Devastated Clearing in the Vaasa~
Many of the large mounds of debris around you still give off an ample
amount of heat from the fires that began burning days ago. Deep gouges
in the ground show that most of the mounds were accumulated when
something rather large and strong went to the effort of pushing the
mounds southward to create this clearing. A small tangle of trees in one
of the mounds has managed to form a loose cave of sorts.

Glowing embers can still be seen under the initial layers of the still

Something has removed several layers of soil lowering the ground level.
The darker, newly exposed soil rests a good ten feet lower than what

the edges forming a large bowl shaped depression open to the sky. It

small tunnel formed by the remains of a tree that is only half-burned

Slippery Shuvana Roots Crossing a Ravine~
From the dizzying height above the ravine, the normally large shuvana
roots seem much smaller and frailer at this moment. The slick moss
shifts with a loose easiness under your feet as it releases its tenuous
grip. A consistent drizzle rains down steadily from somewhere high in
the canopy feeding the moss and roots. It would be an easy, and avisable
thing, to make your way east or west off either side of the root as
speedily as safely possible.

About halfway up the side of the elm you find that the branches around
you are wide and strong. The branches stem out in all directions from
the main trunk forming a fairly good laticework on which you can climb

branches alerts you to the possibilities that their may be an abudant

The Lower Branches of an Elm - Northern Side~
Lush, green leaves obscure a great deal of sight in most directions,
though the thick branches that sprout the leaves are seen clearly enough
from this close. Though the branches are thick enough to support you
safely here, they rapidly diminish in size as you head northward away
from the elm's large bole. A few broken branches a little further out
seem to show evidence that someone else attempted to head that way, and
obviously failed.

The Lower Branches of an Elm - Eastern Side~
Amidst branches thick enough to support you smaller branches weave in and
out sprouting clusters of leaves as the chaotic glory of nature permits.
Darker clusters hidden in the greenery seem to be the nests of birds or
squirrels, though through chance or design they remain well outside the
extent of your grasp. Westward you see the thick bole of the elm that
supports these branches.

The Lower Branches of an Elm - Southern Side~
The tangle of thick branches and smaller branches flourish with the
growth of abundant elm leaves obscuring your view after only a short
distance. In places you can move smaller branches aside only to find
more of the same further out of reach. A soft buzzing nearby alerts you
to the presense of a beehive nearby.

that would snap under any significant weight. If you were to progress
