Description: You've done it, you're almost out of the forest, the end is in sight! However, along the way to see a large festive gathering of people and creatures of all sorts, partying and wearing masks. They invite you to join them in their merriment. It might not be a bad idea to stop and rest for a bit. But after everything else you've seen thus far, is it worth it to take the risk?
Description: Feeling like you're almost to the end of the forest, you press on. Unfortunately, you're soon stopped by a large troll who seems to be minding a toll booth in front of a rickety bridge. Said bridge seems to be the only way over a sizable gap in the ground, not big enough to be an outright canyon, but still large enough that you can't just jump across it yourself. You could try to find a way around the gap, but who knows how long that will take! The troll gestures to the sign. Why do these toll prices always have to be things that are uncomfortable (at best) to lose? You sigh as you roll up a sleeve, bracing yourself for an impromptu blood "donation".
Description: You eventually come across some vine-covered ruins of what seems to be a small castle. A young woman dressed as a princess is having a tea party out front with some dolls. She explains she has been there for as long as she can remember, even though plenty of knights from her kingdom have been trying to save her. When you ask why none of them have succeeded, she explains that she's been cursed to attack anyone who tries to save her, essentially guaranteeing that she'll stay put while chasing away intruders. Then, she asks if YOU are here to save her too, slowly reaching for a particularly sharp knife with a wide smile. You quickly answer no and excuse yourself from the tea party.
Description: Further into the forest, you find some strange looking fairies dancing about in the air. At first it seems they are wearing mushrooms in place of clothes. Upon further inspection, you realize with horror that they are actually physically fused with mushrooms. One particular fairy with bits of a bleeding tooth fungus is staring unnervingly at you... You wisely decide to quicken your pace.
