The pinked haired girl walked casually through the forest, a smile on her lips, the canopy filtered sun on her face. She brought her dwindling can of soda to her lips, finishing the carbonated beverage off. "Pizza. Soda. This forest isn't all that bad actually."
She held the red can in her right hand. No logo or wording shown on it. Tabitha had found it growing on a bush. "Now what do I do with it? Just tossing it aside would feel like littering."
She held it up, examining it. On its bottom, she spied a recyclable symbol, but where could she find a recycle bin? She'd even settle for a regular old trash bin (would be much better than just throwing it on the forest floor).
Deciding to hold on to the can for now, she continued her trek through the forest. As she explored, she kept her brown eyes peeled for a suitable receptacle for the can. A while later, she came to a stop, almost dropping the can, her mouth open in awe.
"The City of the Lake. A locale of The Forest of No Return. I guess this place counts as part of the forest."
Tabitha stood at the edge of a bizarre synthesis of city and lake. Cerulean buildings erupted from the lake's surface in a beautiful architectural display. The sight of it took her breath away (such was its beauty).
"Maybe I can find a recycle bin here."
