<description>The rustic town is nestled in the Danduwen Forest, on the shore of a sheltered cove on Gwenalion Lake. The fir and pine trees grow very tall and in thick stands, with a few birch and oak finding room to spread under the lower limbs of the taller firs. The streets, more like paths, wind and twist past the huge tree trunks, obviously an effort to avoid cutting down any tree.</description>

<description>The streets, nothing more than wide footpaths, thread their way in and out of the majestic old fir and pine trees. It appears that the founding residents objected to the cutting of the trees, and simply followed woodland and animal trails as a guide to where streets should be.</description>

<description>Under a canopy of pine branches and birch trees sits a small cabin with an open door. Piles of untanned hides sit on a wooden platform near the building, and those still curing are stretched on racks scattered about in a small cleared sideyard. A small shingle swings in the breeze to one side of the door.</description>

<description>The overhead foliage is so thick it blocks all but the merest glimpse of the sky. Dappled sunlight occasionally dances on the ground, but for the most part, the town lays in the shadows of the giant trees. To one side of the path sits a small cabin, built in the one-story, peaked-roof architecture common to the area.</description>
<description>The overhead foliage is so thick it blocks all but the merest glimpse of the sky. The rustle of underbrush and the distant call of an owl reminds one that the forest is as awake at night as it is during the daytime. To one side of the path sits a small cabin, a faint glow of light falling from its windows.</description>

<description>Trappers loaded down with piles of pelts and hides make their way through the twisting streets, brushing shoulders with Rangers on brief returns from their sojourns to the northern hills. Langenfirth, originally a mere Ranger outpost, thrives now as a center for trapping and trade, having grown popular with woodsmen after the opening of the Ranger Guild.</description>

<description>Most of the town's structures are built in a rustic manner, from solid logs with flag-stone chimneys and deeply-sloped roofs. Heavy snows during the winter months would collapse a flatter roof, and the residents found logs best to keep out drafts and dampness.</description>

<description>As the street wends its way through the trees, now and then a glimpse of a side of a building or cabin can be seen. The thick foliage and dense underbrush make staying on the wandering paths the only practical way to reach a destination.</description>

<description>Most of the buildings along the road have high, small windows with heavy wood shutters to be closed against the night or cold or wet weather. Panes of leaded glass are rarely used in town. The expense of shipping glass this far north, and the beating glass windows would take from the wind, make wood shutters much more practical.</description>

<description>Several modest cabins line this street. The buildings are well-kept and sturdy, although there is nothing remarkable about them. The tightly shuttered windows and closed doors suggest that the occupants must be away working their traps or tending the forest.</description>

<description>The northern forests rise up into the hills gouged out by the retreating glaciers of a long ago ice age. The town ends as the street widens into a road that travels up the forested slopes in a northerly direction. Only a lone dilapidated cabin huddles here, the underbrush obscuring any trail that might lead to it.</description>
