*\«.¨¨¨¨¨¨ to your sides are walls made of trees, ¨¨¨¨¨¨.«\*
\«.¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ thick and ready to swallow you. the sun ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨.«\
«.¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ is nowhere to be seen, but nontheless ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨.«
.¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ it is very bright - the air feels light ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨.
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ blue, almost white. ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
.¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨.
