The river is small and winding and hard to see because there are no lights within its' location. The river has many colorful rocks and gems.

I quite enjoy being a parent.  I am lucky to be parents with my wife.  I would not be a parent without my wonderful kids.  I am parent first and husband second.
Oh, hello there troll!  I didn't see you in the darkness!  I love my kids so much that I thought I would bring them some of the gems from this cave. Gems? Cave? You are mistaken! This is my bridge and river. Where is this cave you speak of? Ah, it's not a cave!  I thought it was so dark, that I must have gone underground while following the river!  Truly though these gems are brighter than the stars of the sky, if the Sky could be seen in this darkness! Well I never leave my bridge, but for gems brighter than stars I would go anywhere! Take me with you human!! Oh, thank you kind troll!  Would you mind helping me bring back these gems to my children in the village?  We would be ever so grateful! Of course! But in return I do ask that you tell everyone of my kindness, you see no one will come close enough to get to know me. Oh my, how sad!  Well you are certainly happy to stay with us if you would like.  I may need to haul two of the guest beds together so you'll fit, you are a bit taller than most of our usual guests! How kind! I am afraid I am quite attached to my bridge, not to mention a little smelly. If I help you brings the gems home would you bring your family here to swim in the aboveground river?
