Area D (Island) Description!
Posted: Tue Sep 09, 2008 4:53 pm
The area that I am describing is located near the island (area D on the map). I am imagining the area between the shoreline and the island itself. So perhaps the southwest corner of the northwest area of the map. This is my first description ever so let me know whats good, whats not good, and what you want me to elaborate on! If something is too vague let me know! Enjoy...
The shoreline is covered with large rocks all skimmed with a delicate layer of deep green moss. Here and there sunning themselves on the moss are bright red, shiny beetles that are about the size of half dollar coins. They fly in lazy patterns and seem to want to get no where quickly. There is a light warm breeze that ruffles the leaves of the surrounding trees and grasses. The leaves make a slight papery noise as they shuffle together. There are some shore birds here with long legs and long orange breaks that are designed to get in between the rocks and pick out bits of fish and grasses that are living between the rocks. The water here collects from rain fall and from when the waves cause the water to splash into the rocky shore.
As you look out across the water towards the island one notices a path made of stepping stones (brown/gray rocks with soft green moss) that look easy to use to walk across to the island. The path winds its way through a grove of trees that rise out of the water on tall, thick roots. The roots in some places are so large they arch over the pathway and form an arbor for you to walk through. These roots hold the main body of the tree completely out of the water. The trees have long, broad leaves, that are a deep olive color with yellow veins running through them. The leaves on the trees are only at the top of the trees but are numerous and lush. The trees produce a small green fruit (oblong shapes) after it has finished producing large violet flowers. Hopping from tree to tree (and living there) is a small, gray blue mammal similar to a chinchilla.
The water here is quite calm with only the occasional small wave. The trees are quite close together only letting small filtered light through with small patches of direct light here and there. The trees are what provide the tranquil lagoon feeling here as they keep the water still and calm. There would also be aquatic life here such as fish and urchins. A large amphibious snail also inhabits this space using the roots of the trees as its own highway to get around.
This places fees like your own secret lagoon, hidden away for no one else but you to enjoy.
