here we see are trees... trees... and uh more trees!

Áskell bent his head and crept closer to the large fallen tree, sniffing the area and taking in the scent of moss and various fungi. He nodded at Hattori's words then leapt up onto the log. Part of it broke away but most of it held firm. He walked along it then jumped down near the base of another tree. The roots of the second one stretched out far from the base, pushing up out of the ground then back into it. It was possible heavy rainfall had washed out some of the soil around it. "Digging dens under some of the larger roots could also be a possibility if we take measures to make sure water is diverted away from the dens during storms."

He shifted course back to the group. "It's so moist here I would assume this area gets a fair amount of rain so there should be pools of drinkable water around here. They probably collect in the lower areas. It might be possible to dig a pool near the den sites and see how it does with the rain, to see whether it fills up reliably or not."
