Bridge - trail - shadow

You approach the bridge, on the other side of which the overgrown trail runs up a slope back into the woods. You see the stone is fresh-cut, but that lichen and trailing plants have already begun to cover the surfaces. The wildflowers grow up to and even on it.

Then you notice a thing out of place.

Along a flank of the bridge, for the short distance down to the water, plants are crushed, forming a narrow track. The ground there is unmarked by the hoofprints of the creatures in the meadow. Right by the stream, the arch of the bridge creates a dark space.
