The rippling surface of the river appears to be molten silver,

shimmering mysteriously in the mist. Occasionally a loud splash can be

heard, quickly followed by strange shadows moving within the water.

Looming above you to the south are the rocky walls of the Dragon's

Teeth hills, the mazelike mountains west of Silvermere. To the north,

a forbidding mass of dark trees block entrance to a shadowy wood. A

huge, decaying tree has fallen here and nearly blocks passage.
