The air in the Gloom-Reach is a suffocating shroud, smelling of wet loam and ancient rot. A jaundiced, amber light bleeds through the skeletal canopy of the Withered Woods, stretching shadows into distorted, grasping claws. You stand at the mouth of a forgotten trail, the crushing silence punctured only by the distant, mournful toll of a heavy iron bell. I watch you from the suffocating dark, my fingers tightening around the hilt of my sword. Are you merely lost, you, or have you finally come to embrace the grave?
