Tall pillars of darkness rise up out of the ground, blocking the light of the stars. The only light strong enough to penetrate their branches at night is that of the full moon overhead. Beams of light from the moon illuminate a carpet of fallen leaves and a small stream of dark water flowing over darker rock. The moonlight also reveals the trees around to be mostly dead and barren of leaves, giving the place a slight aura of menace. The trees are tightly packed enough to shroud much of the ground in shadow despite the moonlight. Faint wisps of mist rise up from the running water, further obscuring vision. The darkness limits eyesight enough to make it seem as if the dark forest goes on forever. It appears as if the forest is devoid of living things except for some small plant life. Overall the place exudes an atmosphere of mystery and shadow.
