After many weeks of traveling in the seemingly endless musty forest with no sign of human life or even of the sun, it was a relief to see a gap of light in the trees up ahead. Walking into the light at the opening of the forest was like pulling back the curtains in the morning sun after a dark night. As if to say farewell One last giant tree stood at the end of the trail leaning over yet still towering in the sky as if to say goodbye.
