Looking around, Jim saw several paths leading off in various directions, deeper into the forest. The grass here was dry and brittle in contrast to the lush green of the trees. As Jim tried to determine a course of action, he noticed in a corner of the meadow he hadn't seen, a bed. He approached the bed to see his girlfriend Sharon sleeping quietly on the bed.
"Sharon, Sharon. Wake up."
"Wha..What? Jim! What are you doing here!" Sharon looked around, fear visibly building in her, "For that matter, what am I doing here?"

It was almost as if the trees themselves had moved to block the path.
Down one of the trails, a bright meadow could be seen. In the center of the meadow was a massive tree with what looks like fruit growing on it.

Jim and Sharon's hearts rose as they could see the feint outline of a hut down the fourth trail. And the fifth trail receeded into the darkness. Summoning up all their courage, the two decided to head...
