@%†:~^¨¨¨¨   if you follow a dirt road north just   ¨¨¨¨^~:†%@
%†:~^¨¨¨¨¨   within the second ring, and navigate   ¨¨¨¨¨^~:†%
@%†:~^¨¨¨¨  the overgrown maze of the north-eastern ¨¨¨¨^~:†%@
#@%†:~^¨¨¨   residential district, eventually you   ¨¨¨^~:†%@#
##@%†:~^¨¨    arrive at what looks like a large     ¨¨^~:†%@##
###@%†:~^¨    fenced-in grove of bird cherry and    ¨^~:†%@###
##@%†:~^¨¨        juniper. it's quite large,        ¨¨^~:†%@##
#@%†:~^¨¨¨     and will take a while to circle,     ¨¨¨^~:†%@#
@%†:~^¨¨¨¨   especially since it's got gardens and  ¨¨¨¨^~:†%@
%†:~^¨¨¨¨¨  walls sticking out of it in more than a ¨¨¨¨¨^~:†%
@%†:~^¨¨¨¨     few places. but keep going, and      ¨¨¨¨^~:†%@
#@%†:~^¨¨¨   eventually there'll be lilacs, and a   ¨¨¨^~:†%@#
##@%†:~^¨¨            hole in the fence.            ¨¨^~:†%@##
###@%†:~^¨                                          ¨^~:†%@###
##@%†:~^¨¨ go inside. well, it's hollow, and  hides ¨¨^~:†%@##
#@%†:~^¨¨¨ a  pale swamp (herons, mosquitos).  it's ¨¨¨^~:†%@#
@%†:~^¨¨¨¨ brighter here,  and the  sounds  of  the ¨¨¨¨^~:†%@
%†:~^¨¨¨¨¨ city seem distant. but there's a  second ¨¨¨¨¨^~:†%
@%†:~^¨¨¨¨ grove inside.  zig zag  between  puddles ¨¨¨¨^~:†%@
#@%†:~^¨¨¨ and    sinking    shipping   containers, ¨¨¨^~:†%@#
##@%†:~^¨¨ because toward  the  inner  treeline the ¨¨^~:†%@##
###@%†:~^¨ ground     becomes      solid     again. ¨^~:†%@###
##@%†:~^¨¨                                          ¨¨^~:†%@##
#@%†:~^¨¨¨  go inside. this time there's a cracked  ¨¨¨^~:†%@#
@%†:~^¨¨¨¨ parking lot, with sprinkled dandelions,  ¨¨¨¨^~:†%@
%†:~^¨¨¨¨¨    lined by wisteria. east of it is an   ¨¨¨¨¨^~:†%
@%†:~^¨¨¨¨  abandoned building, what used to house  ¨¨¨¨^~:†%@
#@%†:~^¨¨¨      an old restaurant. the paint is     ¨¨¨^~:†%@#
##@%†:~^¨¨  chipping, some windows are broken, but  ¨¨^~:†%@##
###@%†:~^¨       the signage is still there:        ¨^~:†%@###
##@%†:~^¨¨                                          ¨¨^~:†%@##
#@%†:~^¨¨¨             "indian palace".             ¨¨¨^~:†%@#
