Summary: A thick mist whirls in the air, doing its best to disorient you.

This is an eerie place.

You understand why this forest is known by the epithet, the Lost Woods. A thick mist whirls in the air, doing its best to disorient you. You do your best to follow the particles that are thrown off by your torch, but a breeze scatters those sparks along. Turns them into one wayward will-o'-the-wisp after another.

If everything that you've been told is true, then you've walked this shadowy path before. But, given how troubling these woods are, you think it might perhaps be a mercy that you don't remember coming here in the past.

You're not one to give in to, or to display, any fear. But a wave of relief overwhelms you once you reach the Korok Forest.

Love this! The use of second person works very well to draw the reader into the scene.
