Combat is T5 straight up without intent needed to be posted.
Land Specifics:
Hidden within the dark recesses of the forest lies this small
black river. Even in the few spots where sunlight does penetrate, the dark
foliage keeps vision to a bare minimum. Although a rare wanderer might happen upon this spot, it
might be to his own detriment to venture further. Within the dark pooling waters, the river shark swim freely looking for their next meal. The only path across the river lay
4 inches beneath the surface upon small hidden boulders, discovered by and known only to the
talunas that make
this ground theirs for hunting and fishing small game of the Schendi Rain
Forest.
