As you crane your neck and look up you notice the branches above you swaying in a restless, very spooky manner. Strange bird calls, almost like warnings, sound from the thick branches. You begin to be a little worried when you realize this dark trail might be the perfect place for an ambush. The trail thins out to the east. ~ 0 4 3 Rd 0 S #2101 Twist In Forest Path~ ~ ~ As you round the corner you notice huge boulders which look like they must have rolled and tumbled down a great distance blocking the sides of the trail. You can just barely squeeze through to the north where it looks even darker than it is here. ~ 0 4 3 Rd 0 S #2102 Base of Mountain~ ~ ~ The brush and shrubs here rip and tear and cling annoyingly to your armor. Bugs are dancing little sadistic bug dances in your face. You begin to abandon yourself to wild swatting and cursing and you fervently wish you'ld taken a bath before starting out. In your killing frenzy you almost don't notice obvious man made constructions to the east and west. ~ 0 4 3 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 2105 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 2103 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 17453 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 2104 S #2103 Outpost~ ~ ~ This is another a very stout, very dark, very formidible advance fighting enclosure. There's hardly enough room to turn around and the peep hole slots are too low for you to comfortably use. In your infinite wisdom you deduce short people, specifically ONE short people, is all that could fit in here, except a wierd bird which is tugging gently at your jugular. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 2102 S #2104 Outpost~ ~ ~ You've escaped the bugs and brush by diving carelessly to your west. As you land spread-eagled on your face, you can't help but notice the solidly hewn pine walls and little slots for spying or defensive fighting. This looks like a forward-observer position complete with a very nasty looking bird which is even now towering over you preparing to slice your paltry equipment to ribbons. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 2102 S #2105 Rocky Path~ ~ ~ Rock fragments cover the path as you begin climbing a tall steep mountain. Some of the rocks are blood stained and you notice old junk armor with holes pierced in vital places near the sides of the path. This doesnt bother you, because you are invincible. You can climb the mountain to the west, or follow the path around the mountain to the east. ~ 0 0 5 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 2112 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 2102 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 2106 S #2106 Small Cliff~ ~ ~ The path ends here before a short cliff with convenient toe-holds in it so you can climb up. It looks easy. Maybe too easy ... ~ 0 0 5 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 2105 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 2107 S #2107 Treacherous Path~ ~ ~ The oxygen is getting a little thin but, thankfully, so are the bugs. As you look down you notice only one misstep separates you from a rather lengthy swan dive to the bottom. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 2108 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 2106 S #2108 Mountain Path~ ~ ~ You continue huffing and puffing up the mountain. The trees are thinning out and you see a wide panoramic view of the forest in the distance below. This wouldn't be a pleasant place for an attack because the only spot to hide is in the recent avalanche of rocks and boulders to the east. ~ 0 4 5 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 2109 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 2107 S #2109 Below Ledge~ ~ ~ You grasp desparately for handholds among the few shrubs clinging to the steep mountainside and keep a weary eye out for snakes and other alpine predators. As your precarious toe holds slip loose gravel clatters away and you curse the chaos which created this ridiculous mountain. ~ 0 0 5 Rd 0 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 2108 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 2110 S #2110 Falcon Nest~ ~ ~ This ledge is large enough for one falcon. You notice she's made a comfy nest here of twigs and branches and bones, but you don't see any eggs. You realize too late she is still building her nest and is, in fact, eyeing you right now as potential nesting material. That exit to the west might be your only salvation. ~ 0 0 5 Rd 0 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 2111 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 2109 S #2111 Sheer Drop~ ~ ~ You catch the faint whiff of wild flowers here. Looking down you can see a straight drop to the base of the mountain, and looking up you see a lot of sky... But can't quite see what lurks at the top of this steep incline. If you climb up, you'll probably find out though. ~ 0 0 5 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 2110 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 700 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 2103 S #2112 Bend in the Path~ ~ ~ You reach a bend in the path as it curves around the mountainside. Looking further north, you see the surrounding forest give way to a rather large cliff. A very faint rhythmic rumble can be heard, and the ever so slight odor of saltwater can be detected. The mountain itself extends out past the cliff, and the rocky path you are on now continues with it. ~ 0 0 5 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 2113 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 2105 S #2113 Near The Cliff~ ~ ~ The path continues in a slight upwards slope, preventing you from seeing what lies beyond the rim of the cliff, but the smell of salt-water and the pounding rumble are more prominent. One can easily assume it to be an ocean of some sort. From here you can tell though, that the path wraps around the front of the mountainside, preventing any further view from here. The path you notice, is becoming a little more rough. ~ 0 0 5 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 2114 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 2112 S #2114 Along the Edge~ ~ ~ Travelling further along the path, you work your way out past the edge of the cliff. Looking down some seventy five to one hundred feet, is the ocean, its dark green waves crashing mercilessly against the rocky base. A fall at this point could prove to be fatal, and you press up against the wall of the mountain. The path is getting a bit more rocky and treacherous, it might not be safe to continue further. ~ 0 0 5 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 2115 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 2113 S #2115 Bend In The Path~ ~ ~ The path takes a sharp upward turn to the west at this point, almost causing you to take a dive off the edge. Peering over the edge, you see what appears to be a small alcove far below. However, it is unaccessable from here, and you dont feeling like diving to your death just right now. A rumble echoes from within the mountain, causing small rocks to become dislodged, and the ocassional chunk of the path to break free. ~ 0 0 5 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 2114 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 2116 S #2116 Shattered!~ ~ ~ As you walk along the path more, you begin to doubt your very safety. Another loud rumble echoes from within the mountain, and suddenly the entire path begins to shake and rumble! Its a quake, and you're caught right in the middle of it! Without warning, the entire section of the path you are standing on, collapses, and you plummet down to the cold swirling waters below. ~ 0 33554432 5 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 2115 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 2117 S #2117 Falling!~ ~ ~ Nothing but fear and panic ensue as you plummet to your death. Nothing is with reach to grab, and the only cushion at the bottom is the raging waves and jagged rocks. ~ 0 33554432 5 Rd 0 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 2116 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 2118 S #2118 Falling!~ ~ ~ As you gain more speed, your heart begins to thunder in your chest. The stinging in your eyes prevents you from opening them, but you know the end is soon. You wonder how many other adventurers fell to their death along these shores. ~ 0 33554432 0 Rd 0 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 2117 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 2119 S #2119 Falling!~ ~ ~ The world around begins to blur as you gain even more speed. The cliff above spirals awckwardly, as your body twists and turns in the wind. The icy spray of water washes over you as a wave crashes below. Yes this is the end. ~ 0 33554432 0 Rd 0 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 2118 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 2121 S #2120 Fui's Spot~ ~ ~ ~ 0 393228 0 Rd 0 S #2121 The Rocky Shoreline~ ~ ~ You slam into the surface of the water with a thunderous SPLASH! The rough waves smash and buffet you into the rocks around, as you struggle to get to the surface. You fight your way to the surface, the shifting glare of sunlight as your guide, and grab onto a nearby outcropping. The pounding surf begins to take its toll on you, and you desperately make your way to the shore. ~ 0 268435456 0 Rd 10 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 2122 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 2119 S #2122 Rocky Shore~ ~ ~ Fighting the pounding waves and strong undertow, you make your way onto the shore. Catching your breath, and making sure no vital gear was lost, you look up. The path high above, looks like a bite was taken out of it. Huge chunks of rock and gravel litter the ground around you, presumably what was left of the path. The shore continues to the north. The huge, towering walls of the cliffs and mountain enclose the shore, making it quite inaccessable by natural means. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 2123 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 2121 S #2123 Rocky Shore~ ~ ~ Making your way along the shore, you wonder how you can make it back up that cliff. Flight seems to be the only option. The pounding surf seems to lessen a bit as you walk, but not by much. A little further north, you can make out a small shack, and beyond that, what looks like a small dock. As you walk, the sun dips behind the rim of the towering cliff, causing a wave of slight darkness to cover the shore. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 2122 S #2124 Rocky Shore~ ~ ~ After walking a few dozen yards or so, you come up to the entrance of the shack. The wind howls like an enraged banshee, whistling through every crack of the frail wooden structure. A large sheet of tattered leather covers the front entrance, and numerous skeletons of fish and birds litter the ground. You think to yourself "this seems like a good place to stay for now", when suddenly the odor of cooked fish floats out of the doorway. A dim blue glow can be seen in the shack, only noticable in the darkness. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 2132 D3 ~ ~ 3 0 2125 S #2125 Hermits Shack~ ~ ~ Stepping inside this humble shack, you come face to face with an old man. He looks up at you slightly as he cooks his fish, and upon seeing the soaked, beaten expression on your face, kindly offers a mat to rest on. The inside of this hut glows with a soft blue light, perhaps it is magic that prevents the wind from destroying the shack completely. ~ 0 12 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 3 0 2124 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 2126 S #2126 Hermits Shack~ ~ ~ Stepping inside this humble shack, you come face to face with an old man. He looks up at you slightly as he cooks his fish, and upon seeing the soaked, beaten expression on your face, kindly offers a mat to rest on. The inside of this hut glows with a soft blue light, perhaps it is magic that prevents the wind from destroying the shack completely. ~ 0 8 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 2125 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 2127 S #2127 Rocky Shore~ ~ ~ Stepping out of the shack, you wipe the sleep away from your eyes, only to find your surroundings changed. The high tide has risen, blocking off the rest of the shore to the south. Towards the north lies the dock, and from here you can see the tall masts of the viking ship. Looks like the hermit wasnt kidding about what he said. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 2128 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 2126 S #2128 Rocky Shore~ ~ ~ The dock is in rather shoddy condition, weather and time have both taken their toll on the wooden planks. A small boat is tethered to one side, gently rocking with the current, and everything is surrounded by a light blue aura. From here, you can get a better glimpse of the huge viking ship. Its not more than a hundred yards off shore, and you might be able to row out to it. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 2129 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 2127 S #2129 On the Ocean~ ~ ~ You waste no time in shoving off the docks, and rowing out to the huge ship before you. The sea is rather calm today, and you row with very little strain or effort. You watch as the old man walks back to the shack, and cant help but wonder how he knew the ship would be here soon. ~ 0 0 7 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 2130 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 2128 S #2130 On The Ocean~ ~ ~ The rocky shore line gradually disappears as you encounter some waves. It seems you are caught in the wake of the massive ship before you. Its not too rough though, and easily managed. As you get closer to the ship, you notice someone left a rope ladder hanging carelessly out of one of the open portholes. ~ 0 0 7 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 2129 S #2131 Alongside The Ship~ ~ ~ Despite the wake, and resulting turbulance, you manage to row up alongside the ship. Just above you is the bottom rung of the rope ladder, easily within reach. You marvel at the size of this huge craft. Are they settlers? Or is this a viking warship? The answers lie at the end of that rope ladder. ~ 0 0 6 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 17320 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 1101 S #2132 Rocky Shore~ ~ ~ The dock is in rather shoddy condition, weather and time have both taken their toll on the wooden planks. A small boat is tethered to one side, gently recking with the current, and everything is surrounded by a light blue aura. Off to the west, you notice a very narrow path, cut through the cliff face. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 2124 S #0 #SPECIALS M 2135 spec_healer M 2136 spec_poison S #GAMES S #RESETS M 0 2130 1 2103 M 0 2131 1 2103 E 0 2142 0 11 M 0 2133 1 2104 M 0 2134 1 2104 E 0 2142 0 11 M 0 2136 1 2109 E 0 2141 0 20 M 0 2132 1 2110 E 0 2140 0 3 M 0 2135 1 2125 M 0 2137 1 2128 E 0 2144 0 3 E 0 2145 0 22 O 0 2147 0 2128 S #SHOPS 0 #$
