Small Forest Path~
The forest is extremely dense here with the small forest path coming to

an abrupt end.  Small bushes can be seen growing between the tall pine

trees to the east and west.  A small gap in the trees to the north allows

passageway to what looks like the remains of a garden.

Unkept Garden~
Tall, untidy grass grows all around, it appears that it has remained

uncut for many years.  Thin strips of pine peek out from among the weeds,

marking where a flowerbed once stood, but now separate a small compost

heap from the neighbouring vegetation.  To your north stands a small

house; it too shows signs of long-standing neglect.

Decrepit House~
A decrepit house looms ahead of you, its form casting a huge shadow over

the surrounding area.  The paint on this old building has all but

disappeared, with the rotten timber showing through quite clearly.  The

beams of the building creak from each gust of wind which blows through

the house.  There is a door to the north to enter into the house.

Hall~
The walls are barely covered by a flaky white paint which makes the damp

walls clearly visible.  There is a coarse, faded rug that lies in the

centre of the hall, its colour long since lost to time.  The surrounding

floorboards are rotten and uneven; it appears that they could collapse at

any time.  There is a set of stairs in the corner of the room leading to

the next floor.

The smell of cold rock and mud drifts in the air, squalid and old.  The

rain.  To the north the stream appears to become deeper.

crack in the rocks where the water gushes into a stream that has

Garden Well~
No grass grows here, just large weeds that can survive in these unkept

conditions.  A red brick well has a rope hanging down its centre which

sways with the wind.  Moss covers the exterior of the well and weeds

decorate its base.  There is a winch attached to the centre of the well.

Garden Path~
This seems to be the start of a small garden.  It has run wild, plants

are twice as big as they should be.  To the south runs a small path, by

the side lies an old terracotta pot.  Broken pottery lays scattered

about the area, suggesting that once there were many potted plants here.

The small path snakes its way, cutting through the darkened ground.  A

lonely sundial stands tall and proud trying to not get strangled and

buried by the rampaging plants.  As you overlook the garden you spy a

small fountain tucked away, covered with sweet smelling honeysuckle.  To

the west a row of small bushes grow, to the east large trees shadow the

area.

Garden Path~
Masses of wild flowers grow everywhere, they tumble onto the path.  It

looks like it once was a beautiful mosaic full of colour and vigour, now

only small sections of it remain - the rest broken and lost to time.  A

small statue is covered by tall shrubs with deep vermilion buds which

sway in the sweet smelling air.  Under an archway lies an ivy covered

bench, the archway was once strong and proud, but now weeps due to the

harshness of nature.

The wooden walls of the house have been severely damaged by the 

weather.  The wood has almost rotted away to nothing.  On the ground 

there seems to be the rotten remains of bear meat.  There appears to 

have been a door to the west which has been boarded up with solid 

oak planks of wood.  Surrounding the house there are tall trees 

keeping the house secluded.
