You approach this new part of the Wood with caution, as all is dark here. You can see something moving in the distance. What is it? Perhaps, a person who can help you, you think.
A bit of dark laughter floats to your ears, causing your hair to stand on-end. A bitter voice says, "Welcome, welcome wanderor, to the Maddening Maze." You see a rather short person appear. She has dark clothing and long, slender wings.
"I am Whenryn," she says. "And I am perhaps the only person you'll get straight answers from in this part of the Wood. I'll tell you this: if you don't know the path in this Maze, you might as well join the rest."
"Join the rest...?" you repeat, dumbly.
"The rest of the creatures in here. They've gone mad -- or already were, maybe -- and will never leave. That's where the maze got its name." She smiles. "Well, good to see you..." And she disappears.
