There is one main rule in this place that you must follow for your own safety: don't run! This lush maze is filled with natural traps set by a wide variety of carnivorous plants. A careless misstep will trigger them and result in being promptly eaten. The air is extremely hot and damp, to the point that you cannot even start a fire here. This heat and moisture also makes this maze a paradise for insects, and their presence makes this zone even more uncomfortable and dangerous.
Adventurers who travel here have disturbing feeling of being watched at all times, and in a sense they are. Watch flowers grow in abundance here, and these peculiar sunflower like plants always turn themselves toward the nearest potential prey. Even if these flowers are harmless in and of themselves, it's rather unsettling when they turn toward you. Some legends say that they are the eyes of the dryads, but this is incorrect.
The whole zone forms an intricate labyrinth that seems to be alive and carnivorous itself. Great tentacles sweep the path randomly , and cavernous maws yawn open suddenly and without warning on the ground. If you turn back, you'll often see that the surroundings has changed, such as a natural wall appearing behind you that wasn't there a few seconds ago... The dryads of the grove often use their magic and control over vegetation to play such tricks and "guide" their prey toward them.
All in all, it's strongly advised that you avoid this zone as there is no particular treasure to be found here, aside from any un-digestible items left by previous unlucky adventurers that is.
