The Black Citadel

You evoke your Spell of Levitation. You whole body feels light and your boots leave the ground. You fly straight up for a better view of the forest. You notice there are many paths intersecting and winding their way through the forest in many directions. You notice two paths heading deep into Darkwood to the northeast, and a rocky barren looking hill to the northwest. In the distance, through the bright light of the early afternoon sun you can see the Black Citadel surrounded by low cloud. You now fly across the river and touch the other side gently. Now head northwest towards the Black Citadel.
