... but in what would appear to be a thick, lush forest. Around you as far as you can see are massive trees with canopies that blot out the sky. The hum of bugs fills the air. It's hot, or at least considerably warmer than it was on top of the mountain, but not oppressively humid, at least.
Looking to your left, you can see the forest begins to clear out. Looking to your right, you can see that the forest appears as dark and thick as where you are now. It is also possible that you can choose a member of your party to climb a tree to check to see which way you should go. Or maybe you could check out your perimeter on foot?
Climb a tree. Choose the left path. Choose the right path. Check out the immediate area on foot.
Liter is hoisting Leo to help him up to climb the tree! Leo is looking around as he climbs to see if he can see anything in the vicinity, as well as if he can see which way the mountain is.
Either you're terribly unlucky or you don't know much about climbing trees. Or maybe Liter dropped you? Either way, as you make your way toward the top, you here the sound of a loud SNAP and suddenly you're plummeting down, down down toward the ground.
You hit a few other tree limbs on your way down, but they're close enough to manage to stop you from being hurt worse. Still, there's no longer a way up to the top; better go back down before you sustain greater injuries.
You've found a bunch of large sticks (perfect for walking) and stones and some mulch (dried dead leaves and moss), but not much else. There's nothing particularly special about them, but you could choose to take them with you. What will you do?
As you go along, the trees become less dense, giving way to smaller, thinner trees and much less underbrush. Sunshine filters in from overhead, revealing jewels of blue sky lighting the thin leaves. The ground beneath your feet is takes on gentle slopes but seems no less covered in leaves.
Eventually the ground becomes more loamy, but you hear the river and see the frogs darting between tree roots before you see it. Approaching it, you will find the water cool, crisp, and clean.
Cross the river. Following the river North. Follow the river South.
Looking into the deep pool, water is clear and at some points, particularly in the middle, very, very deep. However, there is also a shallow edge such that you can wade in up to your shins and enjoy the cool water, if you want.
Go in the water. Go check out the waterfall. Go back to Cross the river. Go back to Follow the river South.
All around the rock formations of the waterfall a fragrant, bright pink orchid grows. Because of the water spray, these seem to be protected from any kind of stinging insect, so you're free to collect some to add to your inventory. You feel like you should pick some for your inventory!
This close to the waterfall, you notice a series of large rocks--boulders, really--mostly submerged in the water. The tops of them are not quite even, but mostly flat, and also large enough that they could serve as stepping stones through the waterfall. You can't quite tell from here, but there might be something worth seeing on the other side?
Cross the stone path. It's too dangerous; return to the pool.
As expected of a cave so close to a waterfall and pond, the inside of this cave is rather dank and has a wet, almost moldy smell to it. Since the cave is at the bottom of a much larger geological formation, it would appear that there are no holes in it: mere feet from the mouth of the cave, it becomes dark and difficult to tell where you're going.
Movement along the ground out of the corner of your eye catches your attention, but it's too dark to see from where you are what it is. That is, unless you happen to have some way of lighting your way....
What do you want to do?
Vamoose CHECK IT OUT. Ignore it, but continue to inspect the cave.
