A Cobblestone Road
   The small cobblestones that have been laid some time ago to create this
road are paved and provide an easy traversing. Wheels glide over this section
of the town quite easily one would think. The dirt off the side of the road
and in-between the cracks of the stones would often times become airborne by
the wind during the day. It would pick up ever so slightly and collide with
a traveler or a building of some sort. The wind when it does this makes a
sharply pitched noise, an eerie noise during the night. There are no poles,
no lanterns, nor any sort of evidence that this road is difficult to travel
during the night, unaccomplished travelers need not worry.

A Path of Dirt
   Some little rocks are visible along this dirt road. Mud doesn't totally
eclipse them just yet, however, the once totally enveloping trail to the east
has transformed into something that of a road of rocks, paved rocks. These
rocks seem to be made of cobblestone and provide easy access for all of those
who wish to traverse it. Weathering seems to have no hold upon these rocks,
for they have truly survived the test of time. Brushes and large patches of
weeds lay on either side of the path, guarding the algae covered water. Dead
trees lay about the area, however, all are out of reach and lay in shallow
pools of water that makes up the swamp to the east.

A Muddy Trail
   Sounds of the town to the west fill the air. Everything in the swampy forest
to the east seems to stir stir ever so slightly when anyone enters their waste
land. Many types of tracks lay below in the muck, some of these tracks were
made by minotaurs, however, many were made by reptiles. Mud inhibits travelling
tand makes progress very difficult. On either side of the pathway of mud lay
the dead swamp aspect of the area. Water envelopes most of the swamp forest's
ground, with a large number of standing and fallen trees alike. Back to the
west, a cobblestone road opens up and leads toward the town.

In the Muck
   Two large totems stand on either side of the path, both of them the beholder
of heads. The heads lay impaled upon the totems, a warning to all those who
would attempt to traverse this swamp. They've been there a while one would
suppose, simply because nearly all of the flesh has rotten away exposing the
skull underneath. Flies swarm the area, small ponds of water alongside many
dead tress outline the area. Below, the ground is very soggy, the muck slows
progress to nearly a standstill. A small path opens up to the west, which
leads toward civilization.

A Muddy Trail through the Swamp
   A horrible stench fills the area, a stench resembling that of maneaur that
all cows drop. The plumbing from the town has to run somewhere, so why not
here. From the smell of it, every minotaur in the city must have dropped many
loads during his trip to the latrine. Most of the swamp is shallow, yet that
doesn't matter, progress is still very difficult. Atop of some dead trees,
the fallen ones, moss and a variety of plant life grow steadily. Only the
reptiles live within proximity of this smell, for what do they care.

An Old Trail
   Small rocks are swallowed whole by the mud and the various weeds that
arbitrary grow here. Below, on the ground, there resembles something that once
could have been a road, but the vegetation alongside a lack of effort to
maintain it resulted in its erosion by the many elements that envelope the
swamp. Dead trees outline the parameter, with hordes of vines hanging from
them, which prohibits vision further. The wind makes a wheezing sound as it
passes through the vines and empty tree branches. A slight smell fills the
air, the smell of maneaur. It is very foul.

A Long Winding Trail of Mud
   Mud envelopes the path, making progress for any heavily burdened minotaur
carrying the spoils of war, slow. The muck sinks a foot deep and stretches
the entire trail, never to let up. Along the trail, on either side, the rocky
aspect of the swamp comes to life. A large amount of boulders lay scattered
about the area, they look to have been pushed for they still have leave a
crater trail from point to point. Just where these boulders were pushed to
is inapprehensible at the moment, for they are not in sight. A horrible smell
sweeps the area, the smell of mud, which resembles maneaur.

Before a Wooden Bridge
   Huge boulders rest off to the side of the trail, which is full of mud. Small
puddles of water form within the footsteps of a few massive trolls. Other
markings are among the mud, reptilian tracks are visible, their slithering
ways are hard to miss. The area is turning into a mud land, as opposed to
a swampy forest, however, the swamp is visible just to the west, along with
its dark and smelly ways. Alligators noisily splash in the swamp, they've no
doubt caught some prey and are twisting and turning in a death spiral to shake
the life out of its dinner. Crocodiles like their meat tender, which is why
bury their lunch in the bottom of the swamp, waiting for an hour until they
actually feast upon the flesh. The river to the east has a bridge above it.
The bridge is tied to four huge boulders that are used to anchor it, the bridge
being made of rope and planks and all.

   A strong current allows this river to turn into a white water rapid
that runs towards the southeast. Rocks are visible among the river, for they
are the reason the water runs white. Strong currents provide a fast means of

out into the river, whether one would survive on their own is left up to the

Along a River
   The forest thins out to reveal a river in its mist. Much of the ground is
wet for reasons undoubtedly caused by the water of the river. Weeds and
vegetation plague the river's edge and the bushes make great abodes for snakes
and other reptiles. Sounds of the river fill the air as well a the smell that
rapids normally bring, the smell of rain. Animals often come here to drink.
A hill slopes downward towards the river and it still rises to the east. The
white water of the river is caused by the ferociousness of the current
colliding with the rocks underneath that one rarely sees. A large rope and
wooden bridge is anchored by two boulders on this side and two boulders on the
other side. A forest opens up to the east.

Nearing a River
   Wild life can be heard nearby but they remain unseen however, for the
forestation is very thick. The trees grow an incredible height here and they
block out the sunlight that is the demise of so many nocturnal creatures. A
river is faintly visible towards the west. Many game trails are visible to the
east however, as well to the west. It is obvious that this particular section
of the forest is a hot spot amongst the animals for it provides about the
only drinking water readily available in the region. One thing the river
isn't to those who dwell in this region is safe to travel.

A Dense Forest
   The denseness of the forest forbids sunlight from even reaching the ground.
The eerieness of the darken wood seems to spell danger of sorts. the darkened
trees may be the product of ears of little to no sunlight, the trees are
however, living. The game trails on the ground are beginning to thin out a
little, they are still numerous thought. The darkened trees look as black as
coal. A few of t he trees have roots sticking out of the ground further
providing evidence of their ancientness. Owls whoot during the night, giving
an unwelcomed noise to those who reside in the town visible to the west.

Near a Log Cabin
   The weeds and vegetation has grown out of control and plague the footsteps
of the cabin. It is obvious that this place has somehow been deserted. The
cabin stands a little over fifteen feet tall and looks to have been constructed
well. A small chimney is visible and emits no smoke, furthering signs of
abandonment. Two small windows were built on either side of the doorway, they
are however too dirty to see through. The roof of the cabin looks to house
many of the bird life of the forest, and snakes can be heard rattling their
tails in defiance. The cabin was made of a good lumber and it's obvious from
its size that many tree's had to fall in order to build it.

Along a Game Trail
   Scattered animal prints lay on the ground marking this as a game trail of
sorts. The variety of the marks is uncanny, it is obvious that this is a well
traveled path by the animals. Sounds of animal life stir through the air. Many
of the trees are darkened from years of lack of sunlight. The trees are
however still alive. the denseness of the forest can be attributed to the
trees being so dark, since they are the only factor preventing sunlight from
reaching the earth here. The trail is very wide and it is unmarked by
conventional methods of travel such as caravans and booted footprints.
