Beginning of Aravne Forest
Here is where the jungle ends and the giant forest begins. Here
the trees at the edge of the forest are simply very large. Farther in,
however, they grow to inconceivable heights allowable only by their innate
magic. The center of the forest is where the wonderous city of Aravne
can be found among the largest of the giant trees. It is rumored that in
the center of that great city stands the World tree, which is said to
touch the sky and the realm of the gods themselves. The path leads onward
toward the city to the north, and back into the jungle to the south.

Path Along the Forest Floor
Here the forest path continues northward toward the tree city of
Aravne. The path is fairly well traveled, although it is not until much
farther to the north that the safety of the city patrol boundary can be
reached. For this reason, caravans laden with valuable goods from faraway
lands often push onward after leaving the jungle until they reach safety
to the north. Rumors of bandits and theives have become minor legends
throughout the area, and are taken very seriously by those who travel here.

Path Approaching a Small Clearing
The forest path approaches a small clearing to the north. Although
the forest floor here has seen nothing but shadows for countless millenia,
rays of light penetrate nearly to the forest floor up ahead. It is not
apparent from here what may have caused the clearing up ahead, but after days
of travel through the dark jungle it looks like a tempting place to
rest.

A Clearing in the Forest
Here the forest path opens into a large clearing. Athough here
the shadows which normally cloak the forest floor abate slightly, the
choking amount of leaves and needles which cover the ground still prevent any
grass from gaining a foothold here. Hundreds of feet up, a small patch of sky
can be seen between the giant treetops. It looks as though many caravans
have stopped here to rest, and also like there has been an attempt to cover up
some signs of some sort of activity. To the north, the path continues to wind
between the trunks of the huge trees.

Hidden Ladder on a Giant Tree
Cleverly hidden, this ladder leads up the side of one of the larger trees
on the edge of the clearing. Above, it looks as though some sort of hidden
loft has been build against the trunk of the tree. A few old arrows
can be seen sticking from the bottom of the wooden loft, fired up here in what
looks like blind shots from below.

Large enough for several people to stand on at once, it looks as though it has

the crater, and why none of the trees have reclaimed the clearing is still not

Rope Bridge over the Clearing
This swinging bridge connects the tree loft to some kind of structure
built up in another tree of the far side of the clearing. Made of rope,
the bridge sways back and forth dangerously, and clinging desperately to the
vines which form crude guidewires is highly recommended to keep from falling
to the ground far below. From this vantage point, other bridges and cleverly
concealed structures can be seen amongst the trees around the clearing.

Deck of a Large Treehouse
This is the deck of a very large treehouse, probably used by the local
bandits. The deck presents a perfect view of the clearing below, but is
probably invisible from the ground. A dangerous looking rope bridge leads
over the clearing to the east to another loft, while a door leads west into
this treehouse. On the north side of the deck, several strong looking
vines are tied to the railing, and look like they stretch several hundred
feet into the air.

This serves as the entry room of the bandits treehouse. A large
table domitates the central area of the room, while an entryway leads off to
another chamber north. An argument seems to be coming from the other side of
a sturdy looking door to the west, but it is impossible to make out what is
being said. The room seems fairly clean and organized as far as bandit
hideouts go.

A Secret Ambush Loft
This loft has been cleverly hidden against the trunk of this giant Tree.
It is used by the bandits for the purpose of ambushing caravan groups in
the clearing below. A steel cable runs from the loft to the ground, for
the purpose in of a lightning fast slide to the ground below, and the chaos
and surprise which would result from such a maneuver. The clearing is a
dizzying hundred feet below, and the cable looks like it might take both some
practice and some agility to utilize. In between raids, the bandits use
this loft as a resting place.

A Pathway Further into Aravne Forest
Here the pathway continues deeper into Aravne Forest to the north. South
along the pathway seems to lie a small, inviting clearing. The bases of the
trees are growing larger and larger as the path leads ever deeper into
the ancient forest. Many of them here are already wider than what ten
ogres could form a ring around, and must be tens of centuries old.

Here the main path seems to come to a small junction of sorts. While the

Here the path takes a sudden split, as a huge boulder lies imbedded

is blocked by the boulder, and a pair of new paths have been forged to either
side of it. The path leading out of the forest lead back to the south.

Beginning of Aravne Forest
Here is where the jungle ends and the giant forest begins. Here
the trees at the edge of the forest are simply very large. Farther in,
however, they grow to inconceivable heights allowable only by their innate
magic. The center of the forest is where the wonderous city of Aravne
can be found among the largest of the giant trees. It is rumored that in
the center of that great city stands the World tree, which is said to
touch the sky and the realm of the gods themselves. The path leads onward
toward the city to the north, and back into the jungle to the south.

Path Along the Forest Floor
Here the forest path continues northward toward the tree city of
Aravne. The path is fairly well traveled, although it is not until much
farther to the north that the safety of the city patrol boundary can be
reached. For this reason, caravans laden with valuable goods from faraway
lands often push onward after leaving the jungle until they reach safety
to the north. Rumors of bandits and theives have become minor legends
throughout the area, and are taken very seriously by those who travel here.

Path Approaching a Small Clearing
The forest path approaches a small clearing to the north. Although
the forest floor here has seen nothing but shadows for countless millenia,
rays of light penetrate nearly to the forest floor up ahead. It is not
apparent from here what may have caused the clearing up ahead, but after days
of travel through the dark jungle it looks like a tempting place to
rest.

A Clearing in the Forest
Here the forest path opens into a large clearing. Athough here
the shadows which normally cloak the forest floor abate slightly, the
choking amount of leaves and needles which cover the ground still prevent any
grass from gaining a foothold here. Hundreds of feet up, a small patch of sky
can be seen between the giant treetops. It looks as though many caravans
have stopped here to rest, and also like there has been an attempt to cover up
some signs of some sort of activity. To the north, the path continues to wind
between the trunks of the huge trees.

A Pathway Further into Aravne Forest
Here the pathway continues deeper into Aravne Forest to the north. South
along the pathway seems to lie a small, inviting clearing. The bases of the
trees are growing larger and larger as the path leads ever deeper into
the ancient forest. Many of them here are already wider than what ten
ogres could form a ring around, and must be tens of centuries old.

A Junction of the Main Path
Here the main path seems to come to a small junction of sorts. While the
main path continues north and south through the forest, a small side path
leads off to the east. The side path looks as though it was once hidden, but
has now been recently enlarged. How or why this has happened is unknown.

Main Path Along the Forest Floor
The trees here are beginning to grow larger, with many of the bases
larger around than a house. It is hard to see farther than a stones throw in
any direction now due to the thickening forest. The path begins to take
more and more of a winding course as it leads thicker into Aravne forest,
twisting throughout the gigantic trees.

Split in the Path at a Giant Rock
Here the path takes a sudden split, as a huge boulder lies imbedded
into the forest floor to the north. Judging by the mass of the stone at its
base, a good half of it probably lies below the ground. The origional path
is blocked by the boulder, and a pair of new paths have been forged to either
side of it. The path leading out of the forest lead back to the south.

Detour in the Main Path
Here the main path to Aravne has taken a slight detour around a huge
boulder to the west. To the north, it continues its winding treck toward
the tree city, disappearing into the mammoth wood. Many of the ancient
trees here are covered in moss, and their first branches are nearly out of
sight they are so high up.

Looks like an exit.
You extend your sights westward.
Along the Western Fork of the Path
This western branch of the path leads around the giant boulder, and
continues off into the forest to the west. It does not seem to be as
well traveled or established as the main path south of the fork, but perhaps
this could be due to it being a recent bypass route to Aravne.
