Black Svarpian
You sigh with relief when you push aside the last of the suffocating green branches and find yourself at the edge of a cliff. To the left, the ground is elevated to about eye level, the cliff wall continues to rise as it heads farther north and it doesn't look that stable. You decide against trying to scale it. Up ahead you spy another thatch of those green plants and weary of your prior effort, you decide to turn right and stay on the path. As you head off, a grey, ghostly shadow flutters by at the edge of your vision. You realise it's a grey svarpian.

Hurry! Grab it before it slithers away!

Follow the path to the right.
