after a day's travelling through the Wildlands and thicket, you arrive at a forest pagan shrine. An enchantment or wall, vine wall, -natural wall-, and/or stone gate "blocks" the pass and seems to partly obscure the way through.
~ you can travel through the ~mystical thicket forest pass~ into the sagalands of the Folorn thicket and folorn world of Uxou::

From the other side of the cavewall appear two pale-blue skinned figures, one seemingly dressed in flowers, of the forest, another, more magical; you can hear the water trickele down the crevasse into a waterpool, strange exotic purple flowers grow nearby,
the, blue-people do not seem hostile,
the magical looking one of the pair, follows
you with her eyes as you pass through
the cavern-weld,
there seems a glow,
of yellow-light,
~
intangiable distance,
& entangling vines, twine, around -
some of the old-stonework from the
old city seems still here, ruins,
half-flooded-,half-frozen tangled mess,
~~ a flooded rootmire ~~,
of flowering weeds;
spores of semi-toxic air,
It is still Raining

the enchanted woodlands above finally
Gives in to an opening... the mighty bog and misty thicket leading to the enchanted woodland reveals'the underdark' the lower gloomkeep,
underground lost city entrance.
it is possible here to enter gloomtown,
via the underworld and sewer network
would you like to travel to lower gloom?
You smell the air, hesitant..
pause, quiet.
"i think that sentry might have caught up to us."
'better be quiet'
...and quick
we will have to carry ourselves through the Rootwater
"we'll have to travel through the
vinewalls"
The strange gleam of the PaganWorld is close...
, arisen from the ritual fires, the doors to the paganworld are now accessiable:
In this rooty, mudden, braken undergrowth. A beauty stirs, dark propensity of enwoven creeper- # Vines Sprout forming a MarshVree across the lower Wall. A tangle down.
Dryads are here too, amidst a thorny grove elemental rootwalls & plantwalls ~ block the way...
blessed waters, stranger pools of stillness... ~~~~± Ţħĕ թдցай Ẅჹ჻րչႴ°±²
you can go through to the paganworld behind the rocks, over the waterfall....
Up the moss-covered stairs up the mossy wall- will take you through by way of Shrine
< these stairs hide a passage
bent-old Gnarled roots ~ entwine thickly around darkened
Undergrowth... the damp air echoes Warmly around...
light beams & water spouts fall from the sky. turquoise~mists
Shroud the Grove-world.
there is a green-dream paradise here ~ ~
another world of its own. Made for a peaceful one.
~~ the WildRealms
have provided
a PaganShrine
for protection &
worship of nature.
-there is a
Cave-entrance
Down here, past the power and reach of the city above, A hidden world hangs in the balance.These are the PaganLands;; the city slowly changes into walled gardens, crypts, derelict underways, overgrown dungeons, old mossy-mineshaft complexes, and all the while is taken over by the relentless, evergreen enchanted nature of semi-paradise dwellings-
amongst gnarled rootbarks, a
feverish root-world of twisted, beckoning furls & shoots-leaves,
bracken, a lost paradise
Of ferns and enchanted mud~~
you hear the sound of waterfalls,
sploshing -sodden smells of
raindew and the Undergrowth is all
around you, the
undercity of
Menzo-underdark
Is near here,
worship ritual sites are perched
among the ridge,
~Moths~~ flutter past... in the Evening Air**

The upperskyworld of the UzRa castle region,
Scintellate with numera glory, as their is a wide range and variety of flora & fauna unique to the region.
vines & habitats grow up in the skyvalleys surrounding
The UrMa castle and the gloom tower.
strange gnarled twisted roots and branches entwine
their way up, lit torches guide the pathway up
the valley,lit up, upon the stream's edge,
along the castlewall... the deep foggy skysea, laps & beckons...
The volcanic mountain torrent rivers and snakes down
the mountain pass and ridge. ~ lightning is flickering off in the distance ~ rumbles of thunder can be heard from the next Valley,beyond.
the Rainstorm is stronger still out pst the Stormlands...
The raining skyforest grows abundantently amongst
the bridgeways that connect to the Uppercity.
the path joins the north tower, to the rest of the CastleState, Ujo'Lah's Grove spreads yonder - the talking tree-forest, But a precarious Land.
