Old and worn by the time that has passed and the environment where it was built, the wood rotted and worn by the swamp. It should have sunk years ago into the swamp but somehow it remains standing despite the ever sinking earth around it.

I am an old man who lives in the forest. I chop down trees and turn them in to lumber. I am often seen drinking with other men to ease my muscles.
