Entry Courtyard of a Ruined Temple
   This is the entry courtyard of an ancient, crumbling stone temple.  To the
west, an archway leads out of the ruins, while the courtyard extends in each
of the other directions.  In the center of the courtyard, to the east, a
large stone statue can be seen.  The ground here inside the ruin has been

Before the Entry Arch of a Ruined Temple
   Here the hidden path comes to an end before a stone archway to the
east.  Although the arch still stands, the temple it once served as an entry
to now lies in ruins.  Once what must have been a large building, the walls
now only rise a couple feet high before they end in crumbled stone.  On either
side of the entry arch are the statues of a large Tor.  It seems the
mystical creatures have always been revered.

Nearing a Ruined Temple on a Hidden Path
   Here the hidden path approaches what looks like an old, ruined temple of
some kind to the east.   The sounds of treeclimbers grows louder in that
direction, evidence that there indeed may be a colony of the creatures there.
The age or purpose of the temple cannot be determined from here, perhaps a
closer look may yield more information.

   Here the pathway continues deeper into Aravne Forest to the north.  South
along the pathway seems to lie a small, inviting clearing.  The bases of the
trees are growing larger and larger as the path leads ever deeper into
the ancient forest.  Many of them here are already wider than what ten
ogres could form a ring around, and must be tens of centuries old.

A Clearing in the Forest
     Here the forest path opens into a large clearing.  Athough here
the shadows which normally cloak the forest floor abate slightly,  the
choking amount of leaves and needles which cover the ground still prevent any
grass from gaining a foothold here.  Hundreds of feet up, a small patch of sky
can be seen between the giant treetops.  It looks as though many caravans
have stopped here to rest, and also like there has been an attempt to cover up
some signs of some sort of activity.  To the north, the path continues to wind
between the trunks of the huge trees.

Hidden Ladder on a Giant Tree
     Cleverly hidden, this ladder leads up the side of one of the larger trees
on the edge of the clearing.  Above, it looks as though some sort of hidden
loft has been build against the trunk of the tree.  A few old arrows
can be seen sticking from the bottom of the wooden loft, fired up here in what
looks like blind shots from below.

A Hidden Loft
     This wooden loft has been constucted againstthe side of this giant tree.
Large enough for several people to stand on at once, it looks as though it has
been used for the purpose of ambushing resting caravans below.  Seen from
above, the clearing looks like an anciant crater of some sort.  What caused
the crater, and why none of the trees have reclaimed the clearing is still not
known.

Rope Bridge over the Clearing
     This swinging bridge connects the tree loft to some kind of structure
built up in another tree of the far side of the clearing.  Made of rope,
the bridge sways back and forth dangerously, and clinging desperately to the
vines which form crude guidewires is highly recommended to keep from falling
to the ground far below.  From this vantage point, other bridges and cleverly
concealed structures can be seen amongst the trees around the clearing.

Deck of a Large Treehouse
     This is the deck of a very large treehouse, probably used by the local
bandits.  The deck presents a perfect view of the clearing below, but is
probably invisible from the ground.  A dangerous looking rope bridge leads
over the clearing to the east to another loft, while a door leads west into
this treehouse.  On the north side of the deck, several strong looking
vines are tied to the railing, and look like they stretch several hundred
feet into the air.
