A sprawling swamp under a thick, gray sky, where the trees are twisted and gnarled, their roots rising from the water like skeletal hands. The swamp is silent, save for the occasional distant splash or the rustle of unseen creatures moving through the reeds. The water is murky, reflecting the sky in an almost metallic sheen, and strange plants float on its surface, their leaves glowing faintly in shades of blue and green. In the center of the swamp, there is a small island with a single cabin, its wooden walls rotting and covered in moss. Smoke rises from its chimney, though no movement can be seen inside. Surrounding the island are dozens of wooden poles, each topped with a carved mask that stares out into the swamp. A narrow wooden bridge connects the island to the edge of the swamp, but parts of it are missing, leaving gaps that would require jumping to cross. In the distance, thunder rumbles, but no rain falls.
