You are on a lazy, winding path, surrounded by a light forest of small
trees.  The path you are following looks as if it once may have been a
driveway intended for light carriages, but is now heavily overgrown with
small trees, shrubs, tall grasses, and weeds.  The path continues to the
north and west.  
A thorny, red-veined vine twines its way around your feet.
