The trees grew denser, the leaves darker, and the forest floor became littered with mushrooms, some of them glowing with an eerie light.
And then they reached the Baba Yaga's garden.
It was a place of beauty and horror, a twisted and corrupted version of what a garden should be. The plants were overgrown and gnarled, their roots twisting and writhing like serpents. Strange flowers bloomed in garish colors, their petals pulsing with malevolent energy.
And in the center of the garden, towering above everything else, was the Baba Yaga's hut. It was now in its true form, a grotesque creation with a giant chicken's head, its eyes glowing red in the darkness.
Elena shivered as she looked at it, knowing that they were about to face their greatest challenge yet.
