The room is warm with dust motes floating in a sunbeam. There is an old chest near a window through which the light enters. There are some green curtains which are partially closed. Through the window you can see the tops of trees
The forest has old deciduous trees, oaks, beeches and sycamores. Smoky light filters through the branches. It looks like a friendly and exciting place to go for an adventure.
The path is bare earth and well worn. It is about two persons wide. It winds into the forest where it begins to peter out and becomes more overgrown and forks in two.
Taking the left fork and travelling for 5 minutes I arrive at a small bridge over a bubbling brook. The water is clear and pure.
It is an old green bottle with a cork in the top.
The key is large and rusty. It looks as if it might open a padlock
