Cold dust blows around at your feet and forces you to squint to keep the annoying dirt out of your eyes. To your south the faint trail leads back into darkness while just to your north lies the intimidating Lake Kiltrin. The black waters of the lake seem to drain the light away from the surrounding area and send shivers up your spine. Far out on the lake, the shadow of a great tower juts into the sky, above and beyond any hope of sighting its apex. ~ 101 33554437 3 r0 E water~ Dark, cold, dreary is the water as your pale reflection stares back at you with solemn eyes. ~ E tower keep~ Barely perceptible from this distance and under these light conditions, the tower forbodes those who would dare wander between its evil walls. ~ D0 Dark and foreboding waters lie to your north. ~ ~ # ~ ~ ~ ~ V0 0 10102 D2 Darkness extends to the south. ~ ~ # ~ ~ ~ ~ V0 0 9699 R ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ p -1 -1 -1 -1 M20 F-1 Q-1 d0 t 0 0 -1 z 0 0 0 o -1 -1 -1 m 0 ~ P ~ S #10102 On the southern area of Lake Kiltrin~ Ice cold water surrounds you in a veil of darkness which normal light has difficulty penetrating. Crisp breezes brush across your face and toss the ever present mist into your eyes. Cloud covered skys protect this evil lake from receiving any type of natural light. Kiltrin Lake is unusually quiet and still, far from the rumors that you may have heard about what dangers have been encountered here. A stone tower juts out of the lake to your north and continues until it passes through the cloud cover as well.

The runes so apparent throughout this evil tower are no more, and nothing but jewels and riches line the walls here. Back to your north, the elaborate gateway leads back to the corridors, and the %3%Bgolden%0 stairwell leads directly up into darkness. Compared to other sections of this tower, this area is suprisingly bright, with light from an unknown origin reflecting brightly off all the metallic materials that scatter the walls and floor here. ~ 101 67240008 0 r0 D0 The gate leads outside this small room. ~ gate~ # ~ ~ ~ ~ V39 10113 10152 D4 A %B%3golden%0 stairwell leads up. ~ ~ # ~ ~ ~ ~ V0 0 10154 R ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ p 0 0 0 0 M18 F-1 Q-1 d-1 t 0 0 -1 z 1 8 0 o -1 -1 -1 m -1 f2b26.mid~ P ~ S #10154 Above the %B%3golden%0 stairwell~ %B%3You climb to the top of the golden stairwell and stare in wonder at the grand room surrounding you. Made completely of gold, the walls, floor, and ceiling shine brightly and reflect the light coming in the small window-like hole in the northern wall. Fresh air streams in and renews your enthusiasm to journey further on throughout this tower of evil. For a moment, while the opportunity presents itself, you simply inhale deeply the clean spring air, letting it fill you with a sense of peace and tranquility. Moments after the euphoria has worn off, you see a small tunnel leading to the south, dark and mysterious, just as the rest of the tower thus far has %B%3been%0. ~ 101 67248152 0 r0 E n no nor nort north win window out outside~ Through the golden encased opening in the north wall you see blazing sunshine dancing on the tops of clouds which lie below your present height in the sky.

The cavern walls radiate evil so intense, so great, that even the air fails to hide its hideous nature. Corpses of travellers once alive, now litter the floor of this lair as stars do the midnight sky. Above you, the darkness swallows up any hope of catching a glimpse of the cavern ceiling that inevitably lies up there, somewhere. The way which you entered this lair has since collapsed and no other way out is apparent. All that is left is to travel up, into the darkness. You realize you are caught in a place where few have travelled, and fewer... much fewer, have returned from.

Every step you take reverberates into thousands. Dark %4blue%0 light eminates unnaturally from the many mystical light sources which fit securely into some type of dark metallic substance mounted in a linear way towards the north. You also notice a small incline in the smooth floor as you proceed to the north. To your south, the %4darkened%0 gate which lead you here stands cloaked in shadow.

A gigantic globe, pulsating with a %4blue%0 radiance emits an evil so incredibly focused, you find it hard to even spare a quick glance in its direction. In your travels you may have heard rumors of the great %B%4Globes of Aurealis%0. Perhaps, you have even seen one. Now, you are sure, you have. Little is known about the Globes, other than they represent some sort of balancing mechanism which holds the strings of reality together. For however many Globes that exist which represent goodness, balance and benevolence, there are those, such as this one, which represent evil, chaos and disorder. Surrounding this area of the cathedral, masked in shadow, luminous eyes burn in red rage at your presence. Enjoy your life, for it may be drawing to a close. ~ 101 201457664 0 r0 D2 The cathedral extends to the south. ~ ~ # ~ ~ ~ ~ V0 0 10198 R %4The Globe pulses with evil.%0~ &~ &~ &~ &~ p 0 0 0 0 M-1 F-1 Q-1 d-1 t 0 0 0 z 5 5 1 o -1 -1 -1 m 0 ~ P ~ S #99999 $~
