You are on a very overgrown path that runs between the village of Lasler
and the Ghering Caverns, which are in the mountains north of the village. 
Off to the northeast, you see a very rocky area.  Perhaps you will find the
entrance to the caverns there.  To the north, the path seems to lead into a
small box canyon.  From here, you can't tell whether or not there is
anything in the canyon.  A bold scarlet jay perched on a branch calls down
filthy names upon you for disturbing his nap!
A scarlet jay is here, calling down filthy names upon you.
A wounded villager is here, resting at the side of the path.
