The mountain path splits

Aside from the signpost, though, this small clearing is rather pleasant. A small fresh water stream emerges from the rock wall on the west side of the path. The stream flows across the clearing, turning into the west fork. Looking south, you find that you can see a great deal of the Realms of the Great Web from this high in the mountains. Gazing over the top of the Forest of the Great Web, you can see a castle in the distance, on the side of a lake opposite the mountains. Farther south there appears to be a town, a road, and other buildings along the road.
