The metal walkway sits at an angle of almost 45 degrees as the foundations of the bridge have been partly unearthed and several parts of the footbridge have corroded away, leaving the old walkway very patchy. The metal barriers and handrails are buckled and twisted in many places along its length. You can see several metal posts under the bridge have rusted away and in the shadow of the bridge, stone blocks stick out of the dark water as it flows underneath.

Re: MYZ: The Zone
Travelling for a short while to the west*, you come across what was once presumably a small bridge across the waterway. Lack of maintenance, seismic activity and age have taken their toll on the metal walkway however, making it a rather precariously positioned bridge.

Kwine looks at the rickety path across the black stream. "We need to watch out for that patch there. If you look right below it, the water ripples more than normal," the gearhead says, pointing at the spot. "I wouldn't want to take a dip in the water in general, but given what the bridge is supposed to look like, there's probably some sharp edges right below the surface. And we don't want any of this stuff getting into a wound."

Kwine points out some areas of weakness on the bridge for the rest of the group, though Arkod seems indifferent to the advice, simply standing with his scaled arms folded across his chest. "After you then oh wise one." He mutters.

"Yea. Nothing for it."
Mart makes good on his offer and walks over to the stone blocks beneath the decrepit old world bridge. He limbers up, makes a mental note of the stronger ripples, and takes his first step.

Danny is their pathfinder for a reason. Well, he may have derped out on finding a perfect way through, but he's used to circumnavigating difficulty terrain, and easily moves across the bridge.

Arkod strides past Kwine, giving him a look of contempt as he passes, making the crossing without any difficulty. Danny crosses the bridge with ease and helps Kwine first, then notices Mart struggling a little as his foot gets stuck in a hole in the rusted floor of the bridge. It takes a little longer for them to cross than anticipated, but eventually all four mutants stand on the northern bank of the creek.
The rest of the sector lies ahead of you, as barren and dull as the land you covered earlier in the day. Here and there you see crumbling stone walls covered in creeping vines and hardy clumps of tall grasses concealing the remains of small buildings from the world before. Rusted metal posts sprout from the ground sporadically, as if planted there by some great robot gardener. Some point to the sky, dozens of meters high, while others are just jagged stumps no taller than you. In the distance you can see these metal posts form a more defined pattern as they disappear off into the low fog that blankets the landscape.

Re: MYZ: The Zone
The same difficulties that Danny had entering this region are still plaguing him. Yes he can tell that farther ahead the rusted metal poles are getting more organized, so that's a good direction to go hoping to find anything interesting. But beyond that, he hasn't got a clue.
