# The Eerie Village

## Darkdepth

Ancient legends tell of the strange village hidden in the darkest and humid depths of the great forest, inhabited by mysterious, inhuman creatures who appear as silent shadows when a traveler is in mortal danger, only to promptly drag their body into the murky depths of the undergrowth. This putrid and rotten place does not belong to the living, and no one returns from it.
