This file contains a general guide to finding newbie zones from you
hometowns. Some towns do not have newbie areas close to them; if that
is the case, do not worry, as they are being added. Until the area
is ready, type %6help map%0 to see which hometown in this list is closest
to yours.

%1* %0Mesraht       %1-- %3Newbie Plateau%0
Exit the north gate of Mesraht, and then head towards the east. The
plateau is above you, and creatures all around it and on it are available
for your blade.

%1* %0Old Sparta    %1-- %3Newbie Plateau%0
Exit the south gate of Old Sparta. Follow Pleasant Road until it
intersects with Newbie Trail. The plateau is to the east. (Killable
creatures are all along Pleasant Road.)

%1* %0Sshanntynlan  %1-- %3The Underdark%0
Out the east (and only) gate is the Underdark. Some of the creatures are
easily defeated, but you must build your strength before attacking some.
Make sure to use the %6consider%0 command.

%1* %0Tressardvalia %1-- %3Newbie Plateau%0
Emperor's Way will take you out to the west of Tressardvalia and onto
%5the Fool's Path%0. Follow that to %3a scraggly trail%0, which leads
eventually to a north<->south road. Head south until the newbie trail,
and follow that east. If you reach Mesraht, you've gone too far.

%1* %0Sylvandell    %1-- %3Silver Oak Forest%0
Exit south of the city, and head through DerkWood until you find a dark
path leading east. (You'll need %6help map%0 for this one to insure you
do not take the wrong path. If you reach Nirenoft, you've gone too far.)
At a choice along this path, go northwest. You'll find the Silver Oak
Forest.

%1* %0Nirenoft      %1-- %3Silver Oak Forest%0
Exit north, and take the first path to the east. This is the same path as
Sylvandell uses, so follow the directions from that point.

%1* %0Yarrowshire   %1-- %3Yarrowshire%0 or %3Newbie Plateau%0
Yarrowshire can be considered its own newbie area, but you may wish to go
to the Newbie Plateau. If so, exit through the south road, then follow the
trail east into Mesraht. Leave through the north gate, and follow the
directions from there (see the Mesraht section).

%1* %0Triumveraal   %1-- %3(under development)%0

%1* %0Uk'Rusht      %1-- %3(under development)%0

%1* %0Al'Kargoth    %1-- %3Haon-Dor%0
Through the south exit of the orcish hometown lies the Haon-Dor forest.
While suitable for newbies, there are many creatures of greater power, so
make sure to use %6consider%0.

Good luck in your travels! Make sure to use the %6helpfiles%0 and read the
%6boards%0 as you journey further. To find areas beyond newbie level in
your area, use the %6areas%0 command as well as %6help map%0.
