This section of Rune River is calm and the water is more stagnant.  Small
fish swim towards you and then disappear into the twisting mass of
underwater reeds.  The river circles a small island although the river bank
here is too steep to climb.  From the top of the embankment sounds of the
forest fill the air, birds and other forest animals chirp and titter,
creating a musical cacophony.
