The soggy ground is covered in dying vegetation of all sorts, trodden
flat by the many customers that purchase merchandise from the shops that
line this alley.  Light shines in from the southwest, while darkness lies
northeast, an obvious extension of the alleyway.  Seedy merchants walk the
alleyway, selling a spectrum of items.
