Beginning of the Lane~

"Enter, O Warrior, and test thy courage!"

You have entered a huge, luxuriously appointed chamber.  Marble columns
line the walls, and colorful frescos display scenes of both love and war. 
All about you are marble benches, covered with silken cushions, where you
and the other gladiators are allowed to prepare for the fight.  Beautiful
maidens carry pitchers of wine between the benches, while others massage oil
into the fighters' skin.  The legendary Gate of Swords is here, providing
entry into the Great Arena.  But be warned; those who fight here have
achieved the pinnacle of martial skill, and will not be easy foes.  To the
west a door leads away from the battleground.

rest of the Arena battlegrounds, this area is in the form of a labyrinth of
forbidding spiked walls.  At this point you can head north.  Beware the
deathtraps that have been placed here; they can kill you before you meet a
single foe.

of a dozen races and two dozen nationalities throng about you, cheering the
fight.  The view from here isn't that great, but the Arena seems to be made
up of several different battlegrounds separated by walls.  Maybe you can get
a better view if you climb up to the next level.  A ladder is conveniently

Here the fighters gather before and after matches to train and trade
tricks of the trade.  Practice mats lay about, though most of the fighters
are relaxing over a tankard of ale.  A series of doors lie against the
eastern wall, leading to the battlegrounds preparation areas.  They cannot
be entered from here, though; you must be assigned to a battleground by the
Deputy Master of the Arena.  Occasionally a bloodied and battered fighter
will stagger out from one of them, and head to the medical area to the west.

Arena, occupying the center.  Several fights are going on below you.

more raucous than that of their supposed inferiors down in the groundlings'
seats...  
To the east the stands continue, while to the west is the outer wall of the

This is the highest point in the arena; a large stone platform looks out
over the battlegrounds, providing an eagle's eye view of the entire Arena. 
Here is where the Master of the Arena holds court; in this place, his word
is law.  The protective glyphs that cover the rest of the stands are absent
here.  Does the warding that prevents violence elsewhere not exist here?  If
so, it is probably because the Master fears no mortal warrior; even so, part
of you wishes to test your mettle against him.
