yes

I choose the more difficult path near the steam vents(so very like me).

I will go west please

It grows louder as you head deeper into the trees, until suddenly it stops. You are at a path split, where there are two ways to go. west, towards water, where a thick fog blocks much of your view, and east, a path which seems to become less wooded and more open farther on. Which path do you take?

As you take the path down, you slip and fall into a larger of the steam vents. It's a long drop, and it gets hotter as you fall. You are about to hit the bottom, but something that looks like a vine keeps you from banging against the ground. As you look down, you see a metal grating across the floor, something red inside. Heat is pulsing out of it, and it looks like more steam will come out soon. What do you do?

You decide that it would be best to go near water. But as you come to the river, it looks less and less like water, and more like a dark mass of oil, bubbling and oozing. You can collect some of the liquid in a hollowed out stone, or you can leave it be.

I take some and continue on.

I decide that paths are boring and go north still.

I inspect it closely, to see if I can find the source of the steam.

Can I go south??
