The room is cold and grey, sparsely furnished with white blinds, light streaming through them creating sharp patterns in the otherwise fuzzy atmosphere.

It is a dark forest, with tall, stately trees interspersed with smaller, gnarled ones. The leaves are wilted and create a dark floor.

The tall trees represent strongly influential adults, while the gnarled ones represent adults that were ineffectual.

The path swerves greatly, like a strange maze throughout the surreal forest, abandoned and barely visible.

The water is a murky pond, with golden fish glittering in it like bright gems.

It is a worn water bottle, made of leather and half-full of clear water.

The key is huge and rusted, sharply angled and faded. It may or may not unlock anything at all.
