Hub 2: Shadow Wood

From DoomWiki.org

Shadow Wood is the second hub of Hexen. Its theme is wilderness.

The intermission text introducing this hub in the PC version is as follows:

Having passed the Seven Portals which sealed this realm, a vast domain of harsh wilderness stretches before you. Fire, ice, and steel have tested you, but greater challenges remain ahead. The dense tangle of forest surely hides hostile eyes, but what lies beyond will be worse.

Barren desert, dank swamps and musty caverns bar your way, but you cannot let anything keep you from your fate, even if you might come to wish that it would.

And beyond, flickering in the distance, the ever-shifting walls of the Hypostyle seem to mock your every effort.
