You spawn in a forest valley with ground rising at least 40 blocks in most directions, the highest about 147 blocks above the floor. Both a Pale Garden and an Ancient City sit about 258 blocks away, which makes this a real horror start. Below you the caves are mostly dripstone, with lush caves close to absent.
