Off the beaten path this small inlet in the trees seems quite warm and
inviting.  This would make a good place to have a rest if it were not for
the animals wandering about.  The trees loom tall above, allowing only a
glimmer of light through to the grass below.  A tall rocky cliff leads north
and is quite impassable.  
     A pair of iron gauntlets sits in the dirt here.
     A sharp, wide-bladed steel cutlass has been left on the ground.
     A large tree with a map tacked on to it stands in the middle of the inlet.
A doe looks up at you, alerted to your presence.
