The room is my bedroom. It is very warm and stuffy. There is a big bed, 2 dressers, and a big closet.

The forest is filled with many thick trees. There is a layer of fog in the sky. There are many animals around, especially deer and rabbits.

It is the clouds, not the sky, that blocks the light (indicative of something outside the influence of the adults?). The animals off the path (non-human traveling companions) suggests that the subject was guided though this difficult time with indirect help, such as role models from books or television.

The path is not very visible due to the fog. It is a wide path, and could be easily navigated if you have a compass and are familiar with where you are.

The water is a river, a long winding river. It is natural, and it is very clear and bright, you can see almost to the bottom.

It is a canteen with water. It is large and can hold up to two gallons of water.

The key is small and silver. I think it unlocks a chest of buried treasure that is at the bottom of the river.
