The way is relatively smooth through this broad valley and pack mules can be driven through it without much difficulty. Travelers making their way through the Sounding Snows do no, however, report pleasant journeys nor safe ones. The tall mountains that rise above this valley block off the southerly winds that bring great banks of warm fog from the south to much of the rest of the Grey Mountains. Up here in the mountains it is always cold and the snows that blanket the ground seldom melt.This valley is so sheltered, in fact, that there is no wind to disturb the silent snow so that even the crunch of a single footfall upon the snow can be heard for a long ways. Except, that is, for the footfalls of the light-footed goblins who live nearby (11.01) and who often lurk in this valley in hopes that travelers will pass through on their way through the Grey Mountains. The only safety here is in in the shade of a great frozen oak tree that lies at the center of the valley. The goblins refuse to shed any blood in its vicinity and seem to avoid it as much as possible.Hooks:-What lies beyond the Grey Mountains?-Why do goblins avoid the frozen oak tree? I thought goblins loved oak trees and tried to nourish them with blood any chance they got?-Does the shade of the frozen oak tree offer travelers safety or does some danger lie there?</blockquote>
