                                                        -      S      -

You wander along a dusty path that winds its way through Rune Forest. 
The pine trees and oak trees which grow by the side of the road cast a
shadow upon it although the sky has not been completely blocked from view. 
Shards of light penetrate through gaps in the leafy branches, illuminating
the path.  The road bends here to the south and leads east towards a bridge.
To the west there is the start of a dark forest trail.  A wooden sign has
been attached to the trunk of one tree.  
     Against the hillside is a hollowed out log.
