Please create a brief description of a foreboding scene outside a road in a forest with a massive oak tree.

Roots from a massive oak growing beside the road erupt from below, threatening to lame beasts and break wheels. Sharp cuts in the bark are evidence of attempts to remove the hazard, but thus far, the tree is winning the battle. The road takes a sharp bend as it continues to follow the diamond-shaped outline of the city wall.
