The large trees of the forest rise high overhead, blocking out virtually
all light from above.  The light fog drifting across the ground makes it
difficult to get your bearings, and you aren't quite sure which direction
the woods do thin out to the west and the south.  
A large, blue-furred rat is skulking about here.
