"Mushrooms"

The Mushroom Field is a room. "You wake up in a large field full of what seems to be mushrooms. The field seems endless, but you soon realize your sleepy eyes just weren't focused.  Slightly dazed, you realize you're unable to recall your steps and what happened to you before you woke. Furthermore, you realize you're unable to recall your name or anything else about your identity. Panicking, you quickly scan the surroundings for any clues. 

Looking again, you notice a small clearing of mushrooms in the east that leads somewhere and a dense forest with colossal mushrooms covering the sky in the West. To your North and South, you see nothing but an expansive field, seemingly never-ending. "

The Cursed Cave is a room. The Cursed Cave is east of the path. "You stumble upon a scary and dark cave. The air is humid and all you can hear are echoes from the water dripping and far away cave creatures. The cave seems ominous, everything bone in your body screams at you to leave. Do you?"

It's said to have a dazzling sunny golden color to its hue and taste like your favorite food...

Oops! Sorry I'm rambling too much. Anyways, this area is really dangerous. You'd do best to avoid the forest as well as the caves. Try some of the garden plants on your East as they are all medicinal herbs that may help with your amnesia. I'm willing to let you stay until you recover your memories but I'll be busy so try not to bother me too much. ' "
