For 'A Walk in the Woods':


1. There is 'a natural path made by a small creek' in the middle of the woods because it was once a paintball arena.

2. Mark ask Thoran “Are you wearing any good shoes?” because it was about to get very muddy, very quickly because about two days ago it had rained and apparently, since the trees blocked the sun, the ground wasn’t able to evaporate the excess moisture. So in certain parts of the forest, there were huge mud spots.

3. It was Mark's annoying neighbour that yelled “Hey! What are you guys doing?”.

4. According to Thoran, it was the nature that was stunning; clear water stream, gushing over rocks with a slight gurgling sound. A fallen tree trunk about four feet in diameter lay down on one side of the river, leaning up against a tall tree. The tree trunk was slanted, with its highest point about fifteen feet in the air. The tree was covered in graffiti and carvings, as were most of the skinny trees around it. The air smelled fresh of moss and leaves, which were the color of fire, a golden red with a slight tinge of yellow.
