Mikaela's first time

***
We catch up with our heroes after some organization at the Malkier Gate in Fal Dara, 
as Fireyj, Valon and Blade Servant, scouts for trollocs... The Dusty Road is quiet, 
though they know there are some nasty Shadowspawn out and around, sneaking and hiding 
in the trees.  Noctem, Valon and Blade Servant, also scouts in another direction to
attempt to pincer the trollocs between groups on unfriendly fire.

The Dusty Road
The ancient trees around the road don't seem to acknowledge the wind blowing 
around them, their branches and leaves barely moving. Here, the road runs east
and west, but, to the west, you can see that the road bends north. A gray 
tower is visible over the trees to the northwest, and besides that, you can 
only see the impenetrable forest all around the road.

The road here continues to the east and west here, bordered by impenetrable
forest. Walking along the road, you notice the recent tracks of a couple of 
wagons along the road, along with some horses. To your northwest, you can see

of Fal Dara poking over a hill.

To the north of the road, hedges and trees merge to become one, fading into an
impenetrable wall. The south is bordered by an almost identical wall of trees,
which seem as if they have grown into each other. You can spot the tip of a 
tower poking up through the trees to the northwest. The road continues to the 
east and west from here.

walk around. There is no way anyone can see you from the road, through the 
impenetrable trees to the north, but you can spy on the road from the entrance
to this area. To the west and south, you can see more open forest, where you 
can walk freely. You decide that this place would be a great place to hide an 
ambushing party... You can see a lot of disturbed dirt on the ground.

Open Forest
This forest is not quite as thick as it seemed from the road. There is lots
of open space here, between the many thick trees around you. To the north,
east, and south, you can see the open trees continuing. However, to your 
west, the trees close in to form an impenetrable wall of trees.

Heavy Forest
As you pick your way through the trees here, you notice a little trail that
seems to lead towards the west. There is a lot of open space here, since the
trees really don't pack together here, and you could probably fit a lot of
people into this spot. In fact, it looks like someone did, recently. You can
see a lot of upturned dirt on the ground here. To the north, you can barely 
see the road through the trees, and to the south, there are more open woods.

The Dusty Road
The wind carries the faint smell of burnt wood. On both sides of the road,
the densely-packed trees seem to block any passage, but to the south there
seem to be gaps in the trees. A tower can be seen high over the trees to the
northeast, while along the road to the east, wagons can be glimpsed by the
road. The road itself continues to the east and west.

The Dusty Road
The hard-packed dirt of the old road barely registers the tracks of those
who have passed by. The road continues to make its way through the forest,
leading straight east and west. The trees start to pack together so tightly
that distinguishing individual trees becomes difficult. To the northeast,
the tip of a tower can be seen over the trees.

The trees all around, their ancient trunks standing firmly together, barely
seem to acknowledge the brisk wind that whips past their branches. The worn
road continues east and west, bordered by thick, impenetrable forest, but

This part of the hills seem to be the favored place of residence of the local

A mild breeze swirls around the hills, creating tiny whirlwinds of fallen

curiously at the spectacle created by the bipeds. A little path leads to the

A Forested Path Through the Borderlands
Tall trees line this dirt path that winds through the forest, turning to the
south, or continuing to the east. Bushes line the path, and take up any room
that is left over from the trees that seem to overrun the landscape. Fighting
for a place to grow among the shrubs and massive trees, are tiny wildflowers
that break the green color of the forest.

A small path seems to form here and heads through the thick forest that lines

hard to distiguish what limbs belong to which trees. The path is merely
flattened and trampled underbrush made through the easiest route through the
trees. The path continues north.

With so many trees, a lot of animal life can be found here. In several places
signs of animal activity can be seen as tiny tracks on the ground. The animal
noises combined form a chorus that can never be heard in any city. A little
clearing in the hilly woods can be seen south of here. The hills slope

The plant life here is incredibly varied. From bamboo to acorn trees, plants
jut out from the slope of the hills in very interesting directions. A cicada
in a nearby tree protests loudly at the disturbance that you caused as you 
stepped on a dry stick. The forest looks denser to the south, almost masking
the brown hills underneath. A small meandering stream heads southward to the

The Dusty Road
You can definitely smell burnt wood coming from the east, from what seems to
be a couple of abandoned wagons. Looking around, you see only impenetrable 
forest all around the road, and a watch tower looming up over the trees to 
the north. The old, worn road continues east and west here, but to the east,
past the wagons, it seems to bend south.

Burnt Wagons
You are standing among the smoldering remains of what was once probably a
merchant caravan. A pair of smashed wagons are here by the side of the road.
Looking around, you see no bodies lying around, but you get the feeling that 
they were only recently cleared out - else the wagons would have been removed
also. There is no visible way that the bodies were taken away - you can't see
any tracks along the road, nor any paths among the thickset trees. The road 
continues east and west.

Branch in Hidden Path
Gravel crunches slightly as you make your way through the old path. Oddly, the
path branches here - you only notice the little path leading off into the dark
woods to the east as you stand right next to it. The tower lies to the north, 
and south you can see the end of the path you are on.

Hidden Path
You wonder how old this path is - it is well worn, but still totally concealed
from the sky, for some reason. You can barely see the sky from here, so totally
do the trees cover the path. However, you can just barely glimpse the bottom of
a tower ahead to the north, at the end of this path.

to the road. Small tracks lead north, along the path, from the gate.
