    <description>Dirt meets stone here as a road begins its winding journey north along a cut-out hillside shrouded by a grove of trees. Just a few hundred feet north a large growth of reeds forces a jog to the northwest.  In a clump of weeds sits a makeshift stone bench and small pile of stones.  If it was once a shrine, someone has long since removed the statue and abandoned its care.</description>

    <description>Tapping your foot on the ground, the hardness of stone confirms you are on the road.  You feel your way about searching for the hillside to the west or the reeds to the east.  Once oriented, a sense of calm returns and you consider your options.</description>
    <description>The stones of the road fit seamlessly together, locked to each other without mortar.  Traces of rust form two paths in this curve where the iron rims of the wagon wheels have paid the price of taking the turn too fast.  A bullfrog croaks out his presence somewhere in the tall reeds that line the road.  The shade of the trees to the northwest is alluring yet daunting.</description>

    <description>Gnats swarm annoyingly about your head, prompting you to bat at them with your hand in vain.  To the north, you can see where the road leaves the shadows and enters the safety of daylight about a half a mile away.  Curving to the southeast, the road leads you to the closest exit for this grove.  Moss clings to the stones of the road where it meets the water and reeds to the east.</description>

    <description>Some reeds have been hacked away close to the road, undoubtedly destined to become someone's new basket.  The removal has left an opening in the reeds allowing you to peer into the marsh on the other side which seemingly waits for its next victim.  A water beetle that is traveling through the mud stops and waves its feelers at you in what seems to be a challenge before continuing on its way.</description>

    <description>The lack of direct sunlight here is daunting.  You can't seem to suppress the notion this is the perfect place for highway bandits to ply their trade.  Squinting at the deeper shadows, you search the area for possible ambush locations and poke at the reeds just to make sure.  A quick glance north and south confirms you are in the middle of the grove.</description>

    <description>High reeds create a thick wall to the southeast. A makeshift target is tacked to the closest tree.  Someone has been practicing their archery, and on closer inspection you see the arrowheads that are now and forever a part of the tree. To the northwest you see a large bridge now in ruin, which used to span the river.  To the south the road heads directly into the shadows of a grove of trees.</description>

    <description>A large stone bridge that once spanned the expanse of the river here, now lays in ruin.  The town of Riverhaven, the bridge's orginal destination, sits on the other side.  Gazing at the town, the orange glow of the town's street torches forms an eerie dome in the night sky.  To the southeast, a wall of reeds creeps down from a group of trees into the river and attempts to survive the currents of the river.</description>

    <description>Smoke fills the air, not enough to stifle one's breath but enough to cast ominous shadows.  Tables, usually filled with hungry patrons, lay in smoldering pieces.  The hearth's mantel is burned through its middle as if the flame had escaped its brick confines.  The walls are discolored by scorching save for a spot along one wall where the wood grain still shows through.  The damage done to the room seems to have removed all of Penelope Burrows' touches that made this a cheerful place to eat.</description>

    <description>The outdoor section of the stables is nothing more than a level patch of bare ground roughly fenced off with stonework augmented with a few warped and burned wooden planks.  Several dispirited horses wander about cropping at the few tufts of grass that can find root.  A feed trough holds the remnants of some hay as well and there is a good supply of water.  A wooden gate leads into the stable itself.</description>

    <description>Jagged shards of obsidian thrust up from the parched earth at odd angles, formed by the shifting lava flows.  Faint hints of olivine streak the glassy surface.  The sharp edges and poisonous green color give rise to the local name for this area, the Fangs of Ushnish.  As lava cools, it hardens, only to break out again in another location.  The path through the field is never constant as nature's wrath, or that of the god, makes itself known in molten rock.</description>

Swarms of flies close about you, and some land to drill into your flesh for a morsel of blood and to leave a stinging welt as a souvenir of your visit to their lands.

You can catch a glimpse of sweeping forested mountainside just beyond the barrier, the caps of the peaks frosted with eternal snows.</description>

    <description>High Street continues its gentle progress to the east, its smooth sandstone paving diligently swept free of any dust and debris which might settle for half a moment.  The homes which claim this part of town are slightly larger than the average Lower Kaerna cottage, and each owner clearly takes great pride in preserving the superiority of the neighborhood.</description>

Large, wrought-iron flower baskets hang from tall blackwood poles at intervals along High Street, their lively displays of trailing ivy and seasonal wildflowers adding a simple yet elegant adornment to the street.</description>

A half-circle of homes occupies the spacious turnaround, their sparkling windows and glossy paintwork a gleaming reflection of their owners' pride.  A box privet hedge borders the walkway around the crescent, intermittently giving way to numerous white gravel paths that lead to the front door of each dwelling.</description>

The wobbly, uneven surface of the walkway, and the occasional gap where one plank has fallen away completely, conspire to make an unplanned trip into the dark waters a distinct likelihood.  Bits of old bait and scraps of fishing line have attached themselves determinedly to splinters in the ancient wood.</description>

    <description>The door to the volcanic fortress is comprised of two enormous obsidian panels, both ornately carved.  The slender path, chiseled from the lava, leads to a large stone staircase descending to the ground below.  Embedded in the dense rock above the entrance rests a crystal hand encircled by angular runes.</description>

    <description>The once mighty obsidian doors are fallen, shattered, and the way clogged with ruin.  All that remains of its former occupants are bits of bone and the remnants of a large crystal hand, scattered when it was dashed to the ground.

Cut into the low ceiling is a narrow opening that leads up to an abandoned mine shaft.  Faint light trickles through it, the only illumination and the one thing that still connects the cavern to the world that waits outside it.</description>

Future master smiths plot their technique choices as they study charts detailing their future career options.  All the while, master smiths deliberate over the design of their soon to be made new master crafter's mark.</description>

    <description>Cupped within the hills, this small glade is strewn with boulders and rocks amongst the swaying grasses of the dell's floor.  Towering trees rim the area, enclosing it within the forest's welcoming embrace.</description>

    <description>What was once a grove of trees is now a tangle of downed logs, decaying stumps, and drifts of the choking ash that destroyed the area after a volcanic eruption.  The air is heavy with the odors of burnt wood and sulfur while the colorless drifts of ash blanket the ground.  The imprints of myriad cloven hooves are the only sign of life throughout this grey expanse.</description>

    <description>Thick wooden beams line the room, supporting large, smooth stones that make up the walls and ceiling.  Arranged in a semi-circle are some basic oaken chairs that face a massive table covered with maps of the local area and a pot of roasted coffee.  A well-worn footlocker is pushed against one wall, the surface stained from years serving as a makeshift table.  A wide stone staircase affixed to the wall offers access to the roof.</description>

    <description>Mirroring the architecture of the rest of the tower, thick wooden beams rise from floor to ceiling to provide solid support for the roof above.  Mounted prominently against one wall is a well-worn dartboard whose surface and the wall surrounding it bear numerous puncture marks.  Running the entire span of the room is an impressive bar with numerous bottles of various alcohol stacked behind it, all in different degrees of consumption and labeled with 'Property of the Northern Watch'.  The room serves as a comfortable yet lively retreat, where defenders can unwind and enjoy moments of camaraderie.</description>
