Her eyes have been gouge out of their sockets and a line of beetles have infested where they once were. ~ 67 1 0 0 0 0 S 10 1 20 21 0 750d0+0 0d0+0 0 4 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 #3802 elven prisoner~ an elven prisoner~ An elven prisoner is lying near unconsciousness. ~ The once beautiful face of this elven man is now twisted into a mask of fear, pain and hopelessness. His thin arms are covered in whip marks, blood and tiny insects that have decided to feast upon him. He doesn't seem to notice your presence at all. ~ 67 2097152 0 0 0 0 S 10 1 23 23 0 750d0+0 0d0+0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 #3803 halfdwarf prisoner~ a halfdwarf prisoner~ A halfdwarf prisoner is struggling against his bonds. ~ The halfdwarf seems to be a relatively new prisoner to this nasty place as he still has energy, spunk and a lot of life left. He spits at your feet when you don't immediately help him free and then promptly lets loose with an impressive line of dwarven cursing. ~ 67 0 0 0 0 0 S 10 1 19 20 0 750d0+0 0d0+0 0 2 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 #3804 harpy~ a decrepit harpy~ An ancient harpy is spitting curses and fouling her nest. ~ This nasty old bird-woman is covered completely in her own filth and dirt from who-knows-where. Her voice is like steel nails on a chalkboard and the utter filth that spews from her lips as she swears in your direction is enough to make any sailor blush. ~ 67 0 0 0 0 -1000 S 15 1 30 31 0 1500d0+0 0d0+0 14 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 #3805 mefat orc~ Mefat~ An overweight orc is cooking something vile over the fire. ~ Too much eating of one's own cooking tends to do to you what has happened to this orc. That and all the liquor that appears to be going into the pot along with the bits of... Is that an eyeball?! Come to think of it, you think you see a humanoid leg in there as well. No wonder it stinks so badly over here. ~ 67 0 0 0 0 -750 S 12 1 27 29 0 915d0+0 0d0+0 8 18 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 #3806 queen harpy~ the Harpy Queen~ The Queen of the Harpies is about to tear your throat out! ~ The Harpy Queen appears to be the largest, strongest and one of the youngest of the harpies you've seen so far. It appears that lineage has nothing to do with who rules the harpies at all; rather, whomever can beat the others and keep the crown runs it all. However, she doesn't seem interested in your musings and looks prepared to add you to her meal list. ~ 99 524288 0 0 0 -1000 S 20 1 40 40 0 2750d0+0 0d0+0 50 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 #3807 harpy~ a harpy~ A harpy screeches and launches herself towards you! ~ You look at this filthy creature and wonder if harpies were created like this or are they the mating of a human and a roc? This being appears to be some sort of enormous bird with a woman's head (although that is subjective to being a hag's head). She is completely covered in filth; her own and whatever else she's managed to find. Her feathers appear to have a razor's edge and her taloned bird feet look like they could either punch you really hard with a fly-by or claw your face off! ~ 65 524288 0 0 0 -1000 S 18 1 35 35 0 2450d0+0 0d0+0 40 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 #3808 harpy~ a harpy~ A filthy harpy swoops viciously towards you. ~ None of the harpies within the volcanic walls of their aeyrie have appeared weak, but this one seems to be at least along the bottom rung of the "totem pole" as her musculature isn't as impressive. Perhaps it's her age, but this filthy bird with the head of an ugly woman still seems to be quite vile in appearance. At least her odor is quite strong and over-powering! ~ 65 524288 0 0 0 -1000 S 17 1 30 30 0 1800d0+0 0d0+0 28 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 #3809 krushr ogre executioner~ Krushr~ An ogre executioner is waiting for the next prisoner to be butchered. ~ Krushr looks to be a large, grey jovial fellow. His job seems to please him immensely for every time he glances at his axe and the bladed pole, his lips pull back in a huge grin showing his yellowed teeth. That grin gets wider when he notices you skulking about. ~ 67 0 0 0 0 -875 S 16 1 30 30 0 1675d0+0 0d0+0 30 7 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 #3811 numskul ogre~ Numskul~ A mean-looking ogre holding a whip is grinning in your direction. ~ Beady yellow eyes watch you from behind the palid gray-green face of this brute of an ogre. The hair on his head is patchy at best and kind of appears as if it were made of thin black wire. He wears naught but a loincloth and a chest belt and wields a very nasty-looking whip in his hands. His small eyes gleam with wicked glee as he notes your presence. ~ 67 0 0 0 0 -500 S 13 1 10 25 0 1000d0+0 0d0+0 4 7 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 #3813 gruntr orc~ Gruntr~ An orc is preparing the rack for its next victim. ~ You think this orc is female, but it's hard to tell with the hard leather jerkin she's wearing. But whether she is or not makes no difference in her ability for cruelty, for you notice the bloody tongs and ropes she wears at her hips. She seems to take pleasure in the torment of her victims, or at least that gleam in her eye as she notices you says so... ~ 67 0 0 0 0 -750 S 12 1 25 30 0 900d0+0 0d0+0 10 18 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 #3817 slime blood intestine~ a blood slime~ Various bits of intestine and blood seems to be moving about. ~ When you take a closer look at the movement upon the floor, you notice that it actually seems to be some sort of slime that is absorbing the blood and guts that are thrown into the pit. ~ 67 0 0 0 0 -750 S 11 1 23 23 0 825d0+0 0d0+0 2 0 0 0 0 0 131072 0 0 #0 #OBJECTS #3801 whip-knife whipknife~ a whip-knife~ A nasty whip with a sharp knife on the end is coiled here.~ ~ 5 0 0 0 0 8193 14 100 100 0~ 0~ 0~ 4~ 3 40 0 0 0 reserved~ 0 0 0 0 0 A 19 2 #3802 cudgel~ a cudgel~ A large cudgel is leaving a dent in the ground.~ ~ 5 131072 8 0 0 8193 13 100 100 0~ 0~ 0~ 7~ 6 1 0 0 0 reserved~ 0 0 0 0 0 A 18 -1 A 19 7 #3803 bowl hobbit stew~ a bowl of hobbit stew~ A bowl of what appears to be hobbit stew is steaming here.~ ~ 19 0 0 0 0 1 1 100 100 10~ 0~ 0~ 0~ 2 1 0 0 0 reserved~ 0 0 0 0 0 #3804 harpy pinion~ a harpy pinion~ A long, filthy harpy pinion is lying in some muck.~ ~ 13 0 0 0 0 1 10 100 100 0~ 0~ 0~ 0~ 1 1 0 5 0 fly~ 1 1 0 0 0 #3805 bone throne~ throne of bone~ A crude throne of bone rather than a nest dominates the room.~ ~ 12 268435456 0 0 0 0 1 100 100 0~ 0~ 0~ 0~ 9999 1 0 0 0 reserved~ 0 0 0 0 0 E bone~ This large throne looks to have been shaped especially for harpy hind-end and is made of bones from all races that exist as well as cattle, horses and other beasts.

The nest also seems to smell as bad as it looks ~ #0 #ROOMDATA #3800 A Harpy Aeyrie~ ~ ~ Mixed blood and harpy guano coat the walls of this aeyrie and make for an overpowering stench that almost causes the gag reflex. Gnawed on bones and trash have been gathered together to create a nest for harpy and is being held together with more of the harpy dung. Searching the actual nest might turn up something hidden within it, but that would mean getting the dung in your hands and that stench doesn't seem to want to come off whatever it touches. The screeching of harpies is quit loud to the east which appears to also be the only exit from this place. ~ 0 12 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3846 S #3801 A Crack in the Mountain~ ~ ~ The mountains rise high above you making for cliffs that are too steep to climb and too narrow for all but an emaciated pixie to be able to fly through. The only apparent exits out is through a crack in the walls to the west from which an awful stench emits and a narrow path to the east. Either choice seems preferable to this claustrophobic nightmare that you find yourself within at the moment. ~ 0 4 5 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 17439 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3804 S #3802 A Dank Cave~ ~ ~ Thick tendrils of moss dangle from the ceiling of this sulphuric cave and manage to reach the floor, blocking most of your view of this foul place. In between them you spot manacles and chains connected to the walls along with the cliche skeletons of long-forgotten prisoners. Small critters that you guess to be beetles of some sort crawl along the mossy tendrils and ceiling, looking for another free meal. ~ 0 13 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3803 S #3803 Bottom of the Bone Pile~ ~ ~ A large pile of bones takes up almost the entire northeastern section of this extinct volcano. Within you can see that no one particular race has contributed their bits as you spot the tiny bones of pixies, the large bones of giants, the slender bones of elves and drow, and sets of gnawed on bones from every other race you can think of. The pile continues high above your head and almost reaches one of the many ledges above you. ~ 0 4 2 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3802 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3804 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3807 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3818 S #3804 The Harpy Grounds~ ~ ~ Waves of heat emanate back and fourth from the stone walls causing there to be a slight breeze which brings to you the scent of harpy dung and rotting corpses. Gravel, bones, blood and guano make up the ground in here and, you would guess, makes sneaking about more difficult than usual. The walls tower high above you from which you can see the outline of harpies flying in and out of. A crack in the walls to the east appears to be some sort of escape from here. ~ 0 4 2 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3803 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3801 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3805 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3808 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3819 S #3805 A Cook Fire~ ~ ~ Thick, greasy smoke rises from this large, badly made cook fire and nearly chokes you as it fills your lungs. A metal triad sits above with a large black cauldron dangling from it above the fire. A noxious odor comes from within and you can't decide whether they're washing dirty laundry or cooking some vile supper. Several large tree trunks lie around the fire for the humanoid inhabitants and guards to sit around as they eat, get drunk and sleep. ~ 0 4 2 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3804 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3809 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3820 S #3806 A Stone Stairway~ ~ ~ Broken bottles, bone chips and other rubbish litter the rugged stone steps that lead upwards into the walls of the cauldera. Thick spider webs cling to whatever surface is available but none block the actual pathway up. A foul odor is coming from above along with the screeches of something female(?) and unhappy. An exit to the south leads out into the center of the extinct volcano. ~ 0 12 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3807 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3822 S #3807 The Harpy Grounds~ ~ ~ Bone dry gravel and volcanic rock make up the ground at your feet, crackling with each step that's taken upon them. Shadows of low-flying harpies occasionally block out light from above and you instinctively duck and cover your head from whatever they may drop upon you. The cauldera itself isn't overly large, but the walls extend high above you and end in a series of caves somewhere at the top. ~ 0 4 2 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3806 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3803 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3808 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3811 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3823 S #3808 A Platform~ ~ ~ A large wooden platform makes up the center of the long extinct volcano as if it were some kind of stage. A large wooden pole rises from one side of the platform and has long, sharp metal spikes and knives protruding from it. Chains and shackles are attached to the center of the pole and allow whomever is attached to it to be dangled over a hole in the center of the platform. Putting all the pieces together, you come to the conclusion that this is some sort of disembowelment device. ~ 0 4 2 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3807 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3804 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3809 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3812 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3824 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3817 S #3809 The Harpy Grounds~ ~ ~ A thick layer of gravel and bones make up the ground of this long extinct volcano. Sneaking around in here would be next to impossible except for the pasty white substance that holds it all together. Upon closer examination, you realise that the inhabitants of this place care not where they leave their guano. The volcanic walls rise high above you and end in dark caves towards the top. ~ 0 4 2 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3808 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3805 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3810 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3813 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3825 S #3810 A Stone Stairway~ ~ ~ Rough stone steps leading upwards have been hewn in the volcanic rock walls of this cave. Debris, trash and other filth make the footing treacherous and the foul odor that wafts from above gives most people second thoughts about traveling in that direction. The only other exit appears to be to the north into the old volcano itself. ~ 0 12 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3809 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3826 S #3811 The Whipping Post~ ~ ~ A lone, thick post with a several sets of manacles and chains dangling from it dominates this corner of the cauldera. Speckles of blood mar the walls and post leaving no doubts in your mind of this being a place of torment and possibly even "meat tenderization." The gravel at your feet hides bits of bone chips and clumps of long dried blood that trail out from the cave to the west. ~ 0 4 2 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3807 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3812 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3815 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3828 S #3812 The Harpy Grounds~ ~ ~ A falling rock from high above you echos hollowly in this extinct volcano as it bounces from outcrop to outcrop and finally hits the ground at your feet. Upon closer examination, you notice that it is in actuality a bit of bone that someone has tossed from upon high. Peering up you can make out the outlines of harpies flying from cave to cave. You also notice one see you and grin. Perhaps it would be a good idea to leave before she "bombs" you? ~ 0 4 2 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3811 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3808 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3813 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3816 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3829 S #3813 The Rack~ ~ ~ A large wooden rack made of young felled scrub trees and barbed metal ropes and wires sits at the southwestern side of the extinct volcano. Bits of rotting flesh and dried blood lie within any surface of the rack that could possibly have once had a victim upon. Cruel looking barbed manacles lie upon piles of chains at the foot where more than one victim can watch while their friends are gutted before them. ~ 0 4 2 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3812 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3809 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3814 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3830 S #3814 A Dank Cave~ ~ ~ Long strings of moss and lichen dangle from the ceilings of this damp, dank cave. Tiny lines of insects run across the sandy floor and into the decaying skeletal bodies of long-forgotten prisoners. Thick manacles hang from the walls and lie in heavy heaps on the ground. You can barely make out an exit from this place to the north. ~ 0 13 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3813 S #3815 A Dank Cave~ ~ ~ The smell of this dank cave is far different from the other smells of the ancient volcano, but it is no better. Damp sulphur, moss and infected flesh mingle to make for a very nasty scent. A trail of insects is crawling down the wall onto one set of the many manacles and chains that are attached to it. They completely cover an old skeleton and they infest a bloody set of recently abandoned shackles. ~ 0 13 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3811 S #3816 A Stone Stairway~ ~ ~ A warm breeze from above brings with it the odiferous stench of trash, dung and filth. Fruit rinds, half eaten body parts and rock litter the jagged stone steps that lead upwards into the offending smell. To the east the stench doesn't appear to be as bad, but the body hanging in the center of the cauldera doesn't appear too promising. ~ 0 12 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3812 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3831 S #3817 The Refuse Pit~ ~ ~ You're not sure whether letting your feet touch the bottom of this pit is a good thing or a bad thing. Innards such as intestines, spleens and livers rot on the bottom and make footing slippery at best. You duck just in time for another bit of organ to barely miss your head as it is tossed into the pit. You go to take a closer look and notice that the floor itself appears to be moving. ~ 0 4 2 Rd 0 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3808 S #3818 Top of the Bone Pile~ ~ ~ Thousands upon thousands of bones have made their way into this tower of a bone pile where the harpies, ogres and orcs who live here have tossed them when done gnawing upon them. The footing looks treacherous and several bones poke out in dangerously sharp points. You get a good view of the cauldera from here but the sight is just as depressing as it is from below and far above. ~ 0 0 2 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3819 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3823 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3834 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3803 S #3819 In the Air~ ~ ~ You find yourself floating about fifty feet from the bottom of the extinct volcano and find that the air circluation, altho better than what it looks to be below, makes for things smelling really bad. Swooping harpies screech insults at you for entering their domain and look as if they're ticked enough to attack. Then again, they would probably attack even in the best of moods. ~ 0 33554432 9 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3818 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3820 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3824 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3835 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3804 S #3820 Above the Firepit~ ~ ~ You find it hard to see through the brown greasy smoke that emits from the fire and stew that is cooking below. You think you can spot some kind of cave opening to the south, or is it to the east? And you certainly can't see much of the ground below, much less that harpy who seems to have noticed you and is heading your way! ~ 0 33554432 9 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3819 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3821 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3825 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3836 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3805 S #3821 A Harpy Aeyrie~ ~ ~ A thick white paste thoroughly coats the walls and floor of this nasty little nest. Bits of bones, feathers and other rubbage stick out at odd angles and seem to be larger in one corner of the room where you guess the nest is. Bits of razor sharp harpy down floats through the air as if someone was recently in here making quite the feathery mess. ~ 0 8 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3820 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3826 S #3822 A Foul Cave~ ~ ~ Dusty cobwebs, rotting cabbage and bones litter this passageway and make it almost impossible to get around. A stone stairwell has been cut into the rock for the ogre and orc servants to be able to traverse into the caves of the harpies too old to fly and get their own meals. A horrid stench comes from the west and a cave mouth leads out to the south. ~ 0 8 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3823 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3827 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3806 S #3823 In the Air~ ~ ~ The volcanic walls of this harpy home seem to have bits of some thick, pasty white stuff stuck to it as if someone or something hurled it there in a bad choice of decoration. The odor that comes from it identifies it as dung, probably of harpy origin. Some of the harpies you see flying about appear to be hurling the stuff in your direction and at eachother. Higher above you can see more caves than the ones close by. ~ 0 33554432 9 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3822 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3818 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3824 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3828 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3839 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3807 S #3824 Above the Platform~ ~ ~ You hover but inches above the large spiked pole that protrudes from the wooden platform far below you. From here you can see down into the circle cut into the center and realise that it really wasn't worth any effort as all you can see is a pit full of body bits. To the northeast of you is the top of a large bone pile and south of that rises thick greasy smoke from a fire. To the northwest and south comes cries of pain from tormented prisoners. ~ 0 33554432 9 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3823 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3819 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3825 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3829 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3840 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3808 S #3825 In the Air~ ~ ~ Harpies dart all about you, swooping dangerously close to your position and then climb higher to do it all again. You find yourself having to dodge guano bombs and other nasty flung projectiles which make the ground seem not much safer than the air itself. You coud fly higher to try to avoid it all, or land and hide under something or you could try dodging into the cave to the south. ~ 0 33554432 9 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3824 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3820 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3826 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3830 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3841 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3809 S #3826 A Foul Cave~ ~ ~ Passage through this smell cave becomes hard once you look around and notice the rubble and broken bones that block most directions. Everywhere else lies rotting flesh bits and the wall to the west is coated with a thick, smelly white paste as if someone from the east had thrown it there. You think you can make your way down the rough stone steps down or you can leap out of the cave mouth to the north. ~ 0 8 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3825 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3821 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3810 S #3827 A Harpy Aeyrie~ ~ ~ The overpower stench of harpy dung almost is enough to drive you back out of this nasty cave. The thick, pastey white guano coats everything in the room, but seems most concentrated around the nest of bone and feathers in the back of the cave. Razor thin down floats about and make sight almost impossible in here. If one wasn't careful, they might fall out of the aeyrie into the rest of the cauldera to the south. ~ 0 8 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3822 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3828 S #3828 Above the Whipping Post~ ~ ~ The sounds of a whip cracking echoes back and forth off of the igneous rock walls of this long-dead volcano. A thick wooden post down below appears to be where prisoners are taken for punishment and... Fun? Spackles of blood from the game down below appear to have made their way even up here and the thought of how hard the whip would have had to hit to cause that brings a shiver to your spine. You can spy to the far southeast greasy smoke rising from some kind of fire and to the east is a large bone pile. ~ 0 33554432 9 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3827 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3823 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3829 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3844 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3811 S #3829 In the Air~ ~ ~ Hovering in the air, you take in your surroundings and notice that you're in the perfect location to watch the proceedings going on at the whipping post to the north and below, the rack to the south and below and the platform to the east and below. It seems several of the harpy inhabitants like this view as well for they seem to be converging upon your location. ~ 0 33554432 9 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3828 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3824 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3830 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3831 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3845 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3812 S #3830 Above the Rack~ ~ ~ From here you get an excellent view of the proceedings that go on with the rack down below you. From the trails of blood, it seems prisoners are dragged from the post to the north to the rack below. Then the orc in charge seems to do something painful to them as you can see from the pools of blood. They are then dragged to the platform to the northeast and from there you can tell nothing else. You'll have to get a closer look. ~ 0 33554432 9 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3829 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3825 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3832 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 3846 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3813 S #3831 A Foul Cave~ ~ ~ Rotten garbage litters the floor of this large cave and manages to tumble down the carved stone stairs that leads to the bottom of the old volcano. Thick cobwebs, bones and other debris almost block any passage to the south from which you can see feathers drifting. You can also leap off the edge of the cave mouth to the east for a quicker way out. ~ 0 8 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3829 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3832 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3816 S #3832 A Harpy Aeyrie~ ~ ~ The air is choked with filthty harpy feathers and the stench of the thick white guano that coats the walls of this cave. Towards the back is a nest made of bone, body parts and feathers all kept together with another thick coat of dung. You wonder to yourself how anything could stand to live in such a place. ~ 0 8 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3831 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3830 S #3833 A Harpy Aeyrie~ ~ ~ Filth coats this entire cave that serves as an aeyrie to one of the bird women who infests this ancient volcano. Rubbish and bones with the fleshy bits still rotting upon them has been gathered into a large pile near the center of the room and held together with thick, pasty harpy dung to serve as a nest for the foul creature. The only escape seems to be to the south. ~ 0 8 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3834 S #3834 Above the Bone Pile~ ~ ~ Floating above the bone pile and looking down, you notice that were you to fall from this height, it might be more dangerous landing upon the spiked bone protrusions rather than the gravel of the rocky ground even further below. With that in mind, a harpy and her sister appear to have decided that trying to cause that very occurance and are swooping in your direction flinging insults and dung. ~ 0 33554432 9 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3833 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3835 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3839 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3818 S #3835 High in the Air~ ~ ~ You find yourself floating about a hundred feet off of the ground in the air with a myriad of foul-mouthed, ticked-off harpies and wonder again how you got yourself in this situation. The walls offer no protection as they're completely coated in thrown guano making their sides slippery and going up is not an option as several harpies gather to keep you in the cauldera. You might be able to hide from their wrath in the cloud of greasy smoke to the east, but then again, maybe it'll just keep you from seeing them as they tear you apart. ~ 0 33554432 9 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3834 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3836 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3840 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3819 S #3836 High Above the Firepit~ ~ ~ Hot air from the fire far down below you gives you a little more lift and makes flying and floating about easier, but the thick greasy smoke that emits from the fire and whatever is in the large cauldron make seeing next to impossible. Harpies and caves lie all around you, and going into the wrong one and the wrong time could prove to be a fatal error. Perhaps the only safe exit direction is down... But are you sure you know which way that is? ~ 0 33554432 9 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3835 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3837 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3841 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3820 S #3837 A Harpy Aeyrie~ ~ ~ Mixed blood and harpy guano coat the walls of this aeyrie and make for an overpowering stench that almost causes the gag reflex. Gnawed on bones and trash have been gathered together to create a nest for harpy and is being held together with more of the harpy dung. Searching the actual nest might turn up something hidden within it, but that would mean getting the dung in your hands and that stench doesn't seem to want to come off whatever it touches. Thick, greasy brown smoke blows into the aeyrie from the north making it hard to see as well. ~ 0 8 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3836 S #3838 A Harpy Aeyrie~ ~ ~ A thick cloud of razor sharp feathers floats in the air as if someone was recently making a large fuss. Bits of the feather brush past you, leaving tiny nicks and cuts that, in themselves, aren't dangerous but when you notice the filth and dung coating them, disease and poison becomes a concern. Through the cloud of feathers you can see a nest of some sort in the center and escape from this place to the south. ~ 0 8 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3839 S #3839 High in the Air~ ~ ~ You duck just in time for nasty smelling projectile to barely miss your head and splat wetly on the volcanic wall next to you. Looking about, you notice that harpies fly all about you, screeching obscenities with your name in them (wait, how did they know your name?) and hurling balls of entrails and dung along with it. Flying any higher to escape their heckling is impossible as they get in the way to block you. You could try to dart into the cave to the north of you or keep flying in the air and dodge their attacks. ~ 0 33554432 9 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3838 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3834 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3840 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3844 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3823 S #3840 High Above the Platform~ ~ ~ Here you find yourself in the very center of the volcano and harpy aeyries and discover you have a perfect view of almost everything that is happening within the igneous walls. Neary one hundred feet below you is a spiked pole upon which a body is being dismembered and some of the bits thrown into the pit just beneath it. A large pile of discarded bone towers to the northeast, but doesn't quite reach this height and to the southeast is a thick column of greasy smoke. Caves line the walls all about you from which you can see harpies launching themselves as you become the center of attention. ~ 0 33554432 9 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3839 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3835 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3841 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3845 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3824 S #3841 High in the Air~ ~ ~ Volcanic walls covered in harpy dung and intestinal blood and juices rise high above you on the southern lip of this long-dead volcano and you can tell which side it last erupted upon. The northern end of the cauldera is still fairly tall but you can see over the lip to the rest of the world outside. Until, that is, a swarm of harpies blocks your vision and swoops in your direction with a wicked gleam in their eyes. ~ 0 8 9 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3840 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3836 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3842 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3846 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3825 S #3842 A Harpy Aeyrie~ ~ ~ A thick cloud of razor sharp feathers floats in the air as if someone was recently making a large fuss. Bits of the feather brush past you, leaving tiny nicks and cuts that, in themselves, aren't dangerous but when you notice the filth and dung coating them, disease and poison becomes a concern. Through the cloud of feathers you can see a nest of some sort in the center and escape from this place to the north. ~ 0 8 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3841 S #3843 A Harpy Aeyrie~ ~ ~ Mixed blood and harpy guano coat the walls of this aeyrie and make for an overpowering stench that almost causes the gag reflex. Gnawed on bones and trash have been gathered together to create a nest for harpy and is being held together with more of the harpy dung. Searching the actual nest might turn up something hidden within it, but that would mean getting the dung in your hands and that stench doesn't seem to want to come off whatever it touches. ~ 0 8 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3844 S #3844 High Above the Whipping Post~ ~ ~ A hot wind manages to find its way over the rim of the volcano a bit of a way above you, but doesn't seem to alleviate the nasty smell that saturates the air. Unwashed bodies and feathers that have been coated in their own filth seems to be an odor that's not easily gotten rid of. All about you angry, screeching harpies dart just out of your reach whilst some choose to take the initiative and attack you now! ~ 0 33554432 9 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3843 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3839 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3845 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3848 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3828 S #3845 High in the Air~ ~ ~ The walls of the long-dead volcano stretch only about twenty feet above you and caves serving as aeyrie line the walls up here. The ground itself is nearly a hundred feet below making even the ogres look like dwarves. You get a good feel of the actual size of this place and realise that altho it doesn't seem that large, the caves may hide more space than the eye sees. Going up any further looks to be impossible as harpies insist upon keeping you within their domain for their own sport. ~ 0 33554432 9 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3844 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3840 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3846 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3849 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3829 S #3846 High Above the Rack~ ~ ~ You float a hundred feet or so above the rack upon which you see someone currently being tortured. The view isn't so good from here and the harpies that insist upon watching as well constantly obstruct your view. That is, until they notice your presence and decide that tearing you apart would be much more entertaining than the disembowelment of a prisoner. ~ 0 33554432 9 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3845 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3841 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 3847 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 3800 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 3830 S #3847 A Harpy Aeyrie~ ~ ~ Filth coats this entire cave that serves as an aeyrie to one of the bird women who infests this ancient volcano. Rubbish and bones with the fleshy bits still rotting upon them has been gathered into a large pile near the center of the room and held together with thick, pasty harpy dung to serve as a nest for the foul creature. You think it might be a good idea to simply escape from the foul cave and into the air to the north. ~ 0 8 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 3846 S #3848 A Harpy Aeyrie~ ~ ~ Filth coats this entire cave that serves as an aeyrie to one of the bird women who infests this ancient volcano.

Half-eaten corpses lie strewn about the room while body parts and grinning, fleshy skulls dangle from intestines that somehow have stayed attached to the ceiling. In the center of it all stands a large throne of bone from where the Queen of the Harpies oversees her sisters. The only escape from here seems to be the east out into the air. ~ 0 12 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 3845 S #0 #SPECIALS S #GAMES S #RESETS O 0 3814 0 3800 M 0 3803 1 3802 E 0 3812 0 14 M 0 3805 1 3805 G 0 3803 0 E 0 3813 0 13 M 0 3809 1 3808 E 0 3807 0 20 M 0 3811 1 3811 O 0 3811 0 3811 E 0 3801 0 20 M 0 3813 1 3813 E 0 3802 0 20 M 0 3801 1 3814 E 0 3812 0 14 M 0 3802 1 3815 E 0 3812 0 14 M 0 3817 1 3817 M 0 3808 3 3820 M 0 3804 3 3821 O 0 3804 0 3821 M 0 3808 3 3823 M 0 3804 3 3827 O 0 3804 0 3827 G 0 3804 0 M 0 3808 3 3829 M 0 3804 1 3832 M 0 3804 3 3832 O 0 3804 0 3832 O 0 3814 0 3833 M 0 3807 5 3834 M 0 3807 5 3835 O 0 3814 0 3837 O 0 3814 0 3838 M 0 3807 5 3841 O 0 3814 0 3842 O 0 3814 0 3843 M 0 3807 5 3844 M 0 3807 5 3846 O 0 3814 0 3847 O 0 3814 0 3848 O 0 3805 0 3849 M 0 3806 1 3849 E 0 3806 0 6 O 0 3808 0 3849 G 0 3809 0 P 0 3810 0 3808 S #SHOPS 0 #$
