You are in a light forest.  This term does not refer to the visibility
which is limited due to the unnatural darkness caused by the shroud of evil
that hangs over the woods, but instead to the fact that the trees are rather
widely spaced.  Walking is easy in this area, and this would be a pleasant
stroll except for the constant sense of danger, like something was coming up
behind you.
