        <p>The room is round, stone tower room that is slightly chilled. The furnishings are very modest and are of a rich cherry wood with a female vanity with a large circular mirror etched with magical symbols on the outer metal frame, there is also a canopy four-poster bed with curtains surrounding of black silk. Everything else in the room is simply just a black trunk with candles on top of it, burning brightly and a single white candle near the bed that is lit. The windows are draped with a similar black silk as are on the curtains of the bed.</p>

      <div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
        <p>The forest itself is made of many kinds of trees that seem almost magical in nature. It is light towards the entrance to the forest but venturing in makes it darker and darker. The trees vary from pines to oak trees, with a few willows strewn here and there. There is almost a feeling of fright the deeper into the forest you go.</p>

        <p>The water is completely natural and feels cool against my skin. The chill in the water matches the chill in the forest almost perfectly. The water is actually a stream that looks as though it branches into larger water. Rocks are strewn here and there with moss growing on them, and little fish darting here and there.</p>

        <p>The key is a simple wooden key and looks like it unlocks a door of some kind. It is an old type of key with a round end and a long old-fashioned tong or two that is used to trip tumblers in a key-hole. It looks as though the key was painted at one time but over time the paint has scraped off the key, leaving it scarred.</p>
