Room 2: Meadow (with Satyr/Pan)

Room 2 is a transitionary meadow area connecting the beach (Room 1) to the forest interior (Room 3). The room features a beautiful wildflower-filled meadow with views of a river to the north. The room serves as an introduction area where the player may encounter Pan, a friendly satyr who wanders the meadow playing his flute. Pan appears randomly based on game state and can be interacted with if the player possesses the lute.
