An Intersection of Paths                               -      #     NE

                                                        SW     #     SE

The ground is covered in small stones placed down to create a surface on
which people can easily travel.  Shops covered in colorful ribbons and flags
line both sides of the road.  The streets bustle with merchants and buyers. 
The road diverges northeast and southeast, changing into a dirt road in the
latter path.
