Light Jungle

The North Desert is hard to survive in because it's so dry and empty, and anyone left dying on its sands might swear that the opposite extreme would be better. Regrettably for the tributes, the jungle territories prove that wet, vivacious landscapes are not necessarily any easier. Even in the Light Jungle, which sounds like it ought to be a pleasant place, close trees make it hard to walk and dangerous animals stalk the day and night alike. During the day light comes through in uneven patches, and at night it becomes an even more precious and hard-to-acquire commodity. Shelter can be found in hollow trees and holes in the ground, but untrustworthy bugs stalk these dark, damp places. Perhaps worse than all of this, even the most experienced horticulturists will have difficulty picking out the edible from the inedible here.
