North: The Path

The path is long but peaceful, you appreciate the sunlight filtering through the canopy above. The forest is full of life, birds chirping, leaves rustling, and small animals gathering food. Ahead, the path splits slightly, revealing a narrow trail leading to a dark, mysterious cave nestled into the hillside. Its entrance is framed by rounded rocks, and an eerie stillness surrounds it, as if the forest itself holds its breath, this is not natural.

To the east, the path continues toward the Green Mountains, their lush, misty peaks visible in the distance, promising fertile valleys and perhaps safety.

To the west, the trail moves toward the Mountains of Ash, a place of cold, danger, and full of opportunity.

Each direction holds its own risks and rewards.
Do you venture into the cave, risking the unknown for the chance to find something valuable
Or do you press on toward the Green Mountains, risking to enter a zone full of orcs, goblins and other forest creatures?
Perhaps you prefer the path to the Mountains of Ash and face the cold, the powerful dragons, and the dangers in the upper forest.

The choice is yours, traveler.
