The Foyer~
As you enter the house you can see that all is definitely not well here. 

Growing on the walls are massive clumps of ivy, and a small tree sprouts

throught the floorboards.  The floorboards don't appear to have been laid

down very well.  A large spiderweb covers the entrance to the stairwell

to the west.  To the north and south, there appears to be another room of

some sort.  Back to the east is the front door.

Sitting Room~
This looks like it was once someone's sitting room.  However, it is now

totally overrun by plants and spiderwebs.  In the center of the room is a

large tree which grows all the way to the ceiling.  To the west, there is

a door completely covered with very thick ivy and brambles.  A small door

leads back to the south.

The Patio~
The front porch of this odd cabin is made of many different types of wood. 

Unlike the wood used for most buildings, the planks which were used to

form the walls have not been trimmed of their branches, and you still see

partial limbs and leaves.  As you walk across the porch, the boards under

your feet make creaking noises fairly loudly.  You notice that the front

door is locked, which seems odd since this area seems pretty devoid of

life.

Maybe the lock wasn't meant to be used for keeping people out.

Cobblestone Path~
Ahead, you see a very old looking house.  Along its front, you can see

the growth of various plants coming out of the walls.  The chimney

appears to have a tree growing from near the top.  Someone must have

deserted this place a long time ago for such growths to have occured.  Up

in front of you is the porch leading into the house.  You would like to

go in to get away from all the weird stuff out here.  But then again, the

house doesn't look normal either.

Small Forest Path~
Peering through the dark forest, you swear you can see a cabin just up

ahead.  You can also see what appears to be a fenced in garden across

from it.  Although they look deserted, you hope that you can find

anything that can be salvaged and eaten for food.  A cobblestone path

leads you toward the house to the north.  To the south, the small path

trails into the dark forest.

Small Forest Path~
The trees look more foreboding here as if somehow they have been invaded

by an evil spirit.  Although the trees themselves look like normal trees,

the lack of animal life and the darkness caused by the foliage above

creates an ominous feeling in this area.  The path curves towards the

river to the west or continues through the forest to the north.

Small Garden~
Wild weeds and vines have almost completely overgrown the garden.  Fenced

in by a crude, wooden fence, the garden seems to have been left untouched

for a long time.  Just beyond the fence, the dark forest slowly eases up

to the edges of the garden.  Large mushrooms grow sprout from the dirt in

the garden.  The only exit is through the gate you entered.

Creaky Bridge Over Falls~
The bridge creaks and groans under your weight as you stand in the center. 

Long years of neglect have made this bridge somewhat unsafe.  Missing

boards dot the expanse of the bridge here and there.  Below you, the

river rushes to the south for sites unknown.  Through the spray of mist,

you can faintly see the edge of the waterfall to the south.  However, you

can more easily identify the waterfall by the deafening roar it causes.

To the north, you can see a small path leading away into a dark and

forboding forest.  You notice a long narrow staircase disappear over the

edge of the cliff going down.

At the Gate~
You are standing before a wide gate to a garden.  The fence which

surrounds it is made from rough pieces of lumber which must have been

chopped from the surrounding trees.  Looking beyond the gate to the

north, you can see what appears to be a wild garden with plants and

vegetation growing within.  The path to the house lies to the west.

You are standing on a very worn set of stairs.  There are many holes in

the floor which you can see through into the darkness below.  As you come

like wallpaper.

You are standing on the top of the stairs in this strange cabin.  The

realize that there is no sound here.  Maybe the reason for that lurks

behind the door to the east.

The Basement~
As you drop down from above, you see that this used to be someone's

cellar.  There are a few tons of old ale and an old box full of rusted

chunks of metal.  You think these might have once been tools of some sort. 

The basement continues to the north and south, with a distinct dripping

noise coming from the south.

Oddly enough, there is no metal of any kind in here.  All of the

definitely lived off of the land.  The window to the east reveals a small

garden across the path.  The only exit is back to the north.

huge oak tree in this very room.  The base of the tree is buried deep in

the ground and the trunk disappears into the ceiling.  It looks like this

tree was put here for a reason, because you can see that it stands right

in the middle of the basement, helping to support the rickety old house.

the floor of the cavern ends at a ledge which appears to fall into a

deep, yawning pit, which prevents you from exploring.  You can see

several bats flying gracefully in the dark recesses of the cave.

the east, you can see what appears to be the rolling mists caused by a

large waterfall.  At least, that is what that low rumbling sound you can

hear emanating from that direction leads you to believe.  The path

continues to the north along the cliff edge or west into the dark forest.

observe the waterfall.  Powerful and menacing, it rushes over the cliff

edge far to the east where it cascades down on to the rocky ground

beneath the rising cliffs.  From there, it flows into swamplands which

cling to the earth.  The trail continues to the north and south.

The path extends in those two directions, leaving you virtually little

choice.  Around you, the rumble of the waterfall pounds in your ear.

form a dense ceiling.  The path extends to the north and west.
