Deep in the Rift Valley Jungle
The simple word 'darkness' has a new meaning here. Strange odors, mixtures
of the rot and decay of the jungle floor and the sweet smelling flowers that
dot even this gloomy area, add the scent and taste of mystery to the darkness.
Cries of animals seep through the humid air, some familiar, others so spine-
tingling that they reach down into one's soul and tickle at some primal,
unidentifiable fear. Though some vague light does reach the down this far
when the sun is at its highest, it simply creates more shades of darkness to
cloak the creatures that travel here. Bards sing tales of lost cities, and
great adventures in places like this, but the tales of this jungle are few, and
it is easy to see why, few are hearty enough to withstand a darkness such as
this.

Near a River in the Rift Valley Jungle
The water that can be seen to the north and east through the drooping limbs
of the nearby trees flows slowly past heading in a generally southern
direction. Fish and alligators can be seen gliding gracefully through the
water. The water itself creates a bit of a break and allows more sunlight into
this part of the forest, allowing some strange bushes to grow here along with a
variety of vines and flowers. The deafening roar of the tremendous waterfall
that fills this river and drives it onward comes smashing in from the north.
Torrents of water bounce off the cliffs into a broad spray that can
occasionally be felt even this far away.

On a Slow-Moving River
A small waterfall to the northwest sprays water out past the cliff which
thrusts it way in from the north to help feed this lazy river. In the distant
northeast there is another waterfall that also drops water in from the
mountains to feed the river, their combined waters meeting here as they begin
their lazy journey to the south. The water is slow-moving, and shallow enough
to swim, and even wade in places, but the river is by no means safe.
Alligators and other predators have also made this their refuge, as it is an
easy place to hunt.

On a Slow-Moving River
A broad waterfall to the northwest sprays water over the entire area.
Though quite wide, the volume of water cascading over the steep rocks is
actually quite small, the jagged rocks of the cliff-face slap the water into a
fine mist that creates hundreds of beautiful rainbows during the daylight
hours. Alligators float along here in a distinctly lazy fashion, acting more
like hunters of convenience than the true predators they are. The river is
teaming with life here, jungle birds and animals flock to its shores to drink
its cooling water, or to feed on the thick plants that grow on its banks.
Like all places in the jungle, the peacefulness is deceiving, it is the
adventurer that succumbs to the illusion of calm and forgets caution that never
returns.

Along a River in the Rift Valley Jungle
Slow moving water to the north and west generally flows south, but in such a
lazy manner it is hard to detect the current. The gap created by the river
allows far more light to hit the ground here than would be seen deeper into the
jungle, making it possible for many more plants to join in the battle for
sunshine. Huge numbers of jungle creatures come to the water to drink, bathe,
and simply cool themselves. The river becomes a meeting place of sorts, as
well as a fruitful hunting ground.

many of the jungle beasts. Animals sneak quietly to the water's edge to drink,
always looking for the alligator or tiger that might want to make it a meal,
but both the hunters and the hunted must drink, and this is the most refreshing
place to do so.

Before a Huge Jodani Tree
An opening through the massive jodani tree to the north is clearly being
used as the gateway into a village or town of some sort. Tall jodani wood
walls flow seamlessly from the sides of the tree to extend to the northwest and
southeast where they must meet the steep cliffs that surround this dark jungle
valley. The wall itself is quite a spectacle, made entirely of jodani wood
magically melded together so that no gaps or junctions can be seen in the wall
itself. Jodani trees are only found in the Rift Valley Jungle, and very rare
outside of the halfling town of Woodseer. Wood from the tree to the north
could be used to build houses for entire cities, here though it has clearly
been used to create a gateway to help protect a village from the rest of the
jungle.

Within a Jodani Tree
This tall, narrow passage cuts through the Jodani tree to enter a small
village of wild-elves to the north. It is clear that the passage has been made
deliberately narrow so only one person can make it through at a time. A
lantern suspended high above reveals the lustrous red wood grain and careful
craftsmanship of the entryway. The tight quarters and humid air make the
strong aroma of the wood almost overpowering. Gates flanking either side of
the passageway are drawn up out of view from the outside. Small holes in the
roof of the passage indicate that there is another room above. In the event of
an attack, guards in the room above must be able to drop the gates to close off
the village and trap anyone foolish enough to still be in the passageway.
This area seems to be exceptionally narrow!

Zith enters from the south.

Inside the Gates to Moonhollow
A village of wild-elves has been carefully constructed here, deep inside the
Rift Valley Jungle. These elves are far more sturdy and muscular than their
more well-protected brethren in more distant lands. Life in the Rift Valley
Jungle is brutal, leaving only the strong and wise to survive for long. The
elves allow visitors, though they clearly aren't very trusting. A narrow
passageway leads out of the village through a massive jodani tree to the south.
Flawless jodani wood walls extend south and west from the tree to meet the
large cliffs that enclose the Rift Valley Jungle. Moss-lined paths wind off to
the east and west passing through and around a variety of ebonwood and jodani
trees.

A Meeting of Paths
The narrow pathway is well shaded by some large ebonwood trees to the north
and the tall jodani wood wall to the southwest. It is clear from this side of
the wall that it is extremely thick and well made. Light reflects off the
highly polished wall with a faint red hue, it is easy to see why jodani wood is
so valuable, and easy to be impressed by the cost of its creation. There is a
narrow walkway along the top of the wall that is about forty feet off the
ground. Voices of elven children seem to rain down from the trees to the east
and north. An extremely narrow pathway leads east past a large boulder toward
the trunks of several ebonwood trees and the path continues to the south, east,
and west and a large ebonwood tree stands to the north.

A Path Along the Jodani Wood Wall
The narrow pathway leads north and south along the huge wooden wall.
A large tree to the west stretches over 250 feet upward, its upper
branches obscuring the sky. The branches above, and even the high
walkway on the jodani wall, are home to a number of small colorful birds
and squirrels. The lower branches of the trees in the area are about
fifty to sixty feet above the ground, yet people, probably elves, can be
seen moving across them.

A Path Along the Jodani Wood Wall
The path here is tightly enclosed by the jagged rocky walls to the east and
the jodani wood wall to the west. The wall itself meets the cliffs just to the
south of here where a long ladder leads up to the walkway that traverses the
wall high above. Tree branches extend from the north to shade this area,
providing both shade and protection from the elements. Enough of the normal
jungle undergrowth has been cleared away that faint breezes stir the air,
sometimes bringing the sounds of elven voices along with them.

At the Base of the cliffs
The cliffs stick out a bit here creating a perfect spot for the jodani wood
wall protecting the village to join with them. Jagged edges have been worn
down some by wind and water, but some spots reveal relatively recent rock
slides that have revealed new sharper edges. The cliff seems to lean inward
from the south and east making this area dark, and somewhat lonely.
Obvious exits: -North -Up
Zith enters from the north.
< 177h/177H 67v/100V Pos: standing >
On a Jodani Wood Wall
A wooden walkway goes north along the wall toward the huge jodani
tree that makes the entrance to Moonhollow and north into an opening in
the cliff face. It is easy to see over the wall here toward the jungle.
The area immediately before the wall has been cleared of most heavy
jungle growth to prevent anyone from approaching unseen, and to prevent
the jungle vines and trees from growing high enough to make the wall
worthless defensively. Trees inside the wall have also been trimmed
back so that opposing wizards can't use them in anyway to attack the
wall. Openings have been made at regular intervals along the wall to
allow archers a clear range of fire. The walkway continues to the
north and a cave can be seen to the south.
Obvious exits: -North -South -Down

A walkway extends to the west where it enters an immense jodani tree

notch, has been made in the wall and a heavy ballista has been

the wall, ready for quick loading.

A Passage Through a Jodani Tree
A narrow passage through the tree links the walkways along the
northern and western halves of the Moonhollow wall. Magically lit rods
have been placed around the passage to light the passage and the narrow
ladder leading down to the guardroom over the gates. A trumpet hangs
from a peg near the western exit, ready to be sounded in an emergency.

ends by a cliff. A wide notch has been made for the heavy ballista that
has been mounted here. Two racks on either side of the opening contain
ballista missiles that are ready to be rapidly loaded and fired. Trees
to the east and west block all view of anything other than the road
along the inside of the wall and the cleared area of the jungle outside
of the wall.

The Jodani Wood Wall Ends
Jagged cliffs reach upward to the west where the wall ends. It is clear
from this vantage point that the cliffs that enclose the small village of wild-
elves are at their closest point here, making this a perfect spot for a
protective wall. The trees inside Moonhollow have had their branches trimmed
back away from the wall so that opposing wizards can not use them against the
wall itself. Openings have been placed along the length of the wall for
archers and to give wizards a clear field of view.
