It is dark inside the stand, but you are not afraid. These trees are sacred to the inhabitants of the forest, and you know they will bid you no harm. That is, as long as you don't desecrate the forest. ~ 0 4 3 Rd 0 E trees~ The trees here almost look as if they could talk, a strong magic presence seems to dance about them. ~ D0 ~ ~ 0 0 8002 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10902 S #10902 A Copse of Trees~ You are amidst a copse of trees. On all sides you hear the light sighing of the forest. Blinking eyes peek out at you from holes in the trunks of trees, then disappear as suddenly as they appeared. Overhead, the branches seem to blend together, and to the south you can see a wide clearing. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10901 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10903 S #10903 A large Clearing~ You blink as you enter this large clearing in the forest. Trees have been hewn from this area, and a large circular area is completely bare of any vegetation. It looks like a fairy ring! ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10902 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10904 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10906 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10905 S #10904 A large Clearing~ This is the northeastern end of the clearing. The trees are so dense on the edges that the forest is impenetrable. Even if you had an axe, it wouldn't do any good. You can clearly see the runes of protection drawn on the bark of the trees. This is truly a magical place. ~ 0 262144 3 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10907 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10903 S #10905 A large Clearing~ You are in the northwest corner of the clearing. The more you look around, the more you wonder who made this clearing, and why they made this clearing. Surely it could not have been mere mortals. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10903 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10908 S #10906 The Middle of the Clearing~ You are in the exact middle of the clearing. Beneath some leaves which are scattered on the ground, you can barely make out the edges of a tunnel leading straight down. You wonder to what delights and adventures it could lead. Why don't you find out? ~ 0 4 0 Rd 0 E tunnel~ The tunnel is not very big in size, but you might be able to squeeze through. It leads down into darkness. ~ D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10903 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10907 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10909 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10908 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 10912 S #10907 A large Clearing~ Running through the ground here are the roots of a very ancient tree. The ground is very rough as a result, and you trip often if you walk around exploring. A slight wind rustles the leaves that lie at your feet. You feel like taking a nap at the base of the tree, but you can't quite get a nagging thought out of your head. Too many people have permanently fallen asleep in magical forests. You don't want to be the next. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10904 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10910 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10906 S #10908 A large Clearing~ In the boughs of the trees above, you catch a flicker of movement. As you try to get a better look at the motion, you can barely see iridescent wings disappearing from sight. This must really be an enchanted grove. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10905 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10906 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10911 S #10909 A large Clearing~ You are at the southern end of the clearing. Something about these trees just doesn't seem right. You can't quite put your finger on it, though. Maybe if you stare long enough at them you can figure it out. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10906 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10910 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10911 S #10910 A large Clearing~ You feel very strange in this clearing. Usually graceful and at ease in the forest, you somehow feel like a big oaf. Not a sound can be heard around you, but you have the uncomfortable feeling that someone is watching you. You scan the area, but you cannot find anything irregular. ~ 0 0 4 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10907 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10909 S #10911 A large Clearing~ Here in the northeast corner of the clearing, a huge oak juts out of the surrounding forest. It is rumored that the acorns from this tree give wonderful magic properties. Of course, it is also rumored that they can cause a hideously painful death. You'd better not take any chances. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10908 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10909 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 10922 S #10912 Down the Narrow Tunnel~ After you step in, you realize that there is no floor. OOPS! You're in for quite a ride. Thankfully, you land on a platform before you kill yourself. Looks like there's only one way out, though.. And that's down. Get ready to jump! ~ 0 9 9 Rd 0 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 10906 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 10913 S #10913 Entryway~ You look around somewhat confusedly. It looks like you have found yourself in the middle of someone's house! The room you are in is nicely swept, but there is an amazingly large amount of junk lying around. You wonder what sort of packrat lives here. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 E junk~ There are piles of who knows what from who knows where. You cringe as you think you see something in the pile move. YUCK! Someone needs to demold this place. ~ D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10915 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10914 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10917 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10916 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 10912 S #10914 Unused Corner~ This room is cluttered with objects that have been in disuse for some time. The top layer is all purple, and poking out beneath is a layer of red objects. Over the whole pile is a very thick layer of dust. Inhaling a little too quickly, you stir up a bunch of dust which leads to a coughing fit. Someone definitely needs to clean! ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 E objects~ Its a bunch of junk! Everything from boxes to bags I am sure you would love to search through all this junk if it was not for all the dust and mold. ~ D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10913 S #10915 Dining Room~ You're in a cozy little dining room. Like every other room in the house, it is covered with a thick layer of dust. The remains of a feast lie on the table, and the food remnants are covered in mold. The sight is almost enough to make you gag. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 E remains~ Yak! Its nasty rotten moldy food! As you take a closer look you cover your nose and see that it is probably an old roasted rabbit. ~ E table~ The table is rotting and about to fall apart in a second. ~ D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10913 S #10916 Pantry~ As you enter the pantry, you are assaulted by various smells. A freshly cooked ham hock, a molding apple pie, and some evergreen boughs which have been tossed in the corner are just a few of the culprits. The odor is extremely repulsive yet intriguing. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 E hamhock~ Yuck! It's a freshly cooked hamhock and it looks like the cook added mold as the final disgusting touch. ~ E apple~ Yum! Looks just like the ones mom used to make. That is if you hid it in your room for a year! ~ D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10913 S #10917 Down a Long Corridor~ The hallway is long and dimly lit. Sooty traces show where candles have been burnt. More trinkets litter the floor. You notice that most of them are shiny and green, and you don't know what to make of this fact. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10913 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10918 S #10918 Down a Long Corridor~ The hallway continues to the south. It is very dark in here, and you are thankful if you brought some kind of light. Up ahead you hear faint music, but you are unable to pinpoint the source. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10917 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10919 S #10919 Down a Long Corridor~ The music is a little louder here. You hear the blending tones of flutes, clarinets, and something that sounds like a duck. Whoever lives here really has strange tastes in music as well as in decor. You call out, thinking the inhabitant must be near. You get no response. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10918 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10920 S #10920 End of the Corridor~ You've reached the end of the hallway. The music is the strongest here, and it seems like it's coming from behind the door. You muster up your courage and prepare to knock on the door. All of a sudden, you hear a loud crash and bang. Sounds like the packrat is home. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 E door~ A plain wooden door stands in the south wall. ~ D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10919 D2 A plain wooden door. ~ door~ 3 0 10921 S #10921 The Packrat's Bedroom~ This has to be the nastiest room in this home. Everything here is green and the smell is enough to knock a grown Troll on his butt. There might be a desk against the west wall but with all the junk you couldn't be for sure. You get the sudden urge to bolt for the door to the north and run for air. ~ 0 4464649 0 Rd 0 E door~ A plain wooden door stands in the north wall. ~ E desk~ Scraping the mold aside you notice that your assumption was correct its a desk. ~ D0 A plain wooden door. ~ door~ 3 0 10920 S #10922 Ancient Oak~ You are at the base of a huge and obviously ancient oak tree. It's branches spread out above you like a vast web of green. The gnarled old branches are gigantic, and you think you can see a treehouse at the top of it. The thought of the immense height sickens you, and you know you should turn back. To the west you see that the bark has been disturbed in the tree. ~ 0 401412 3 Rd 0 E door~ A door is hidden here in the bark of the tree. ~ E bark~ The bark of the tree looks very odd.. almost like there is a door hidden there. ~ D3 The bark here in the tree looks a little out of place. Looking closely, you can see that there is a door hidden here behind the bark. ~ "bark door"~ 3 0 10993 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 10923 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 10911 S #10923 Ancient Oak~ The trunk of the old oak, which you're climbing is very thick and gnarled. Luckily for you, the bark of the tree has deep crevices in which you can dig your fingers into. You ponder the wisdom of climbing this tree, and you await the horrors of what might dwell above. ~ 0 401408 3 Rd 0 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 10924 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 10922 S #10924 Intersection of Branches~ You appear to be at the junction of many branches. Tired from climbing up the enormous trunk, you decide this might be a good place to rest. You notice that the bark of the branches appears to be well worn on the topside, but very rough on the bottom. You find this odd, but don't know what to make of it. ~ 0 4 3 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10928 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10925 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10926 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10927 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 10929 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 10923 S #10925 Out on a Limb~ You are on a very broad branch which has no trouble supporting your weight. In fact, you estimate that you could take five large steps either to your left or right without having any worries about falling. The gargantuan size of this tree sets you to pondering about its age, which must also be immense. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10942 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10924 S #10926 Stunted Branch~ This branch appears to have been stunted on purpose. You can see the knots where new branch growth was hacked away by someone or something. There appears to be no explanation of this. Apparently, somebody only wanted four large branches in the tree. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10924 S #10927 Out on a Limb~ This branch appears to be well-worn, as do the rest of the branches you can see. After some thought, this revelation does not seem so surprising. Of course an ancient and very large tree will be inhabited by something. You just hope they are friendly. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10924 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10960 S #10928 Out on a Limb~ The limb which you are on goes sharply up into the air. You notice niches cut into the limb which provide a means by which to climb. You sense that this tree has been used for many centuries by some kind of intelligent being. What this being is, however, you have yet to find out. ~ 0 4 3 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10924 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 10933 S #10929 Up the Main Branch~ You are climbing up the main branch of the tree which goes straight up into the air. A slight breeze makes it sway to and fro, taking you with it. Looking down would not be a good idea right now, and neither would looking up. Already the height is dizzying. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 10930 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 10924 S #10930 Up the Main Branch~ The inhabitants of the forest below seem like children's toys from this height. Further up, you can make out the outline of what appears to be a lookout tower. Humanoids can be seen wandering to and fro on the platform and seem to be pointing in your direction. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 10931 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 10929 S #10931 Up the Main Branch~ Directly above you is the lookout tower. As you continue to climb the branch, one of your feet slips. Frantic, you scrabble for another foothold. Thankfully, your foot comes to rest on a niche in the branch. Looking down with a sick feeling in your stomach, you realize that you were one breath away from disaster. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 10932 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 10930 S #10932 Lookout Tower~ From the top of this tower, you can see the entire enchanted forest and the valley beyond. The panoramic view is spectacular and frightening. The sense of vertigo overcomes you, and you clutch the railing for dear life. The guards seem to be taking undue notice of you. You'd better leave... ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 10931 S #10933 Out on a Limb~ You climb higher up into the tree. It is becoming ever more apparent that humanoid creatures live in this tree. Every now and then, you see a strip of bright fabric tied around a branch, and an occasional bauble left on the tree branch. By the design of these items, you believe these creatures to be some kind of elf. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10934 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 10928 S #10934 Out on a Limb~ As you climb further out on the branch, you notice more and more trinkets that have been left behind. Up ahead, you hear the soft silvan tongue being spoken. It is rare for mortals to see the beautiful elves, and even rarer for them to live to tell about it. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10935 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10933 S #10935 Under the Ladder~ The tree branch ends here, but there is a rope ladder leading upward. Not just any rope, the tree elves carefully select fibers for their ropes. It is said that not even the sharpest axe blade can cut through these special supports, and the secret of making the ropes is a well-guarded trust. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10934 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 10936 S #10936 Elven Village~ You are at the entrance to a large elven village. Cold stares greet you from the doorways of the tented village. You feel a little uncomfortable about just barging into the midst of these people's lives. Perhaps you should just leave. ~ 0 4 3 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10937 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 10935 S #10937 Elven Village~ You continue to move down a limb which serves as the major street in this arboreal elven village. You can occasionally get a glimpse of the inhabitants, but for the most part, they remain out of sight. This gives you the uncomfortable feeling of being watched. ~ 0 4 3 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10938 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10936 S #10938 Elven Village~ The large limb you have been walking on spreads out into a mesh of many smaller limbs. This conglomerate appears to be a central meeting point, and you notice large and colorful tents in abundance. The opulence of these tents give the impression that this is a very rich and classy neighborhood. You see the entrance to one of these tents before you. ~ 0 4 1 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10939 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10941 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10937 S #10939 Elven Village~ You are in the northwest corner of the village square. To your west you can see an entrance to an opulent dwelling, and to the north you see what appears to be the central meeting hall of the elves. Each of these tents is suspended from the branches above and staked to the branches below. ~ 0 0 1 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10940 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10938 S #10940 Elven Village~ Here on the northeastern edge of the town square, you see another magnificent tent. The fabric used for the shell of the tent is unfamiliar to you. In catching the breeze, it bends and ripples as if it has a life of its own. The iridescent flickering of the fabric is mesmerizing, and you stand staring at the tent in awe. ~ 0 0 1 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10941 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10939 S #10941 Elven Village~ Another beautiful elven tent stands to your east here. You marvel at the ingenuity of the elves which allow them to create such spectacular dwellings far above the earth. You wonder if you would be able to sleep this far above the earth, though. ~ 0 0 1 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10940 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10938 S #10942 Out on a Limb~ The broad limb which you are on continues to the east. A slight breeze rustles the leaves which are hanging next to your head. The warm, musky scent of the forest surrounds you and gives you a sense of peace. Up ahead you can hear the chattering of forest creatures. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10943 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10925 S #10943 Out on a Limb~ The limb which you are on begins to narrow a bit, but it is still comfortable to walk on. It surprises you that this large, comfortable branch has not found any inhabitants. Maybe you just aren't looking closely enough. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10944 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10942 S #10944 Out on a Limb~ The tree branch takes a sharp turn upward at this point. Claw marks and the occasional hole made by a woodpecker can be seen on this branch. Like the size of the branch itself, the marks on the tree branch are rather large in size. Hopefully, the critters are friendly ... ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10943 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 10945 S #10945 Out on a Limb~ The signs of life are increasing all around you. All manner of arboreal forest creatures can be seen scampering about. Well, actually, scampering is probably not the best description. The branch creaks and bounces under their immense weight. You'd better hang on. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10946 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 10944 S #10946 Out on a Limb~ The branch is narrowing out a bit here, and it begins to branch out ahead. Blinking eyes stare out at you from the shadows of the tree, only to disappear immediately afterward. You hear the soft hoot of an owl coming from somewhere near to you. You pause and enjoy the sound of the forest. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10947 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10945 S #10947 Out on a Limb~ Two fairly large branches lead off to the north and to the south. Some type of nest can be seen on each of these branches. The main branch curves far up into the sky here, and looking down makes your stomach turn. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10948 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10949 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10946 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 10950 S #10948 Crow's Nest~ You are in the middle of a filthy, smelly crow's nest. Black feathers and broken eggshells litter the nest. The baby crows have their beaks stretched wide open, waiting for the worms that their parents are offering them. The adults eye you warily, and you wonder if they will try to chase you out of the nest or feed you worms instead. ~ 0 1 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10947 S #10949 Cuckoo's Nest~ You are in a nest. Originally, the nest was intended to hatch a little brown bird of some sort. Instead, a newly-hatched cuckoo is standing in the nest with its mouth wide open for food. Around the nest you can see the remnants of the eggs which originally inhabited this nest. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10947 S #10950 Out on a Limb~ With every step you take now, the branch creaks and sways. It is no wonder, considering the immense length the branch grows to. Already you feel as if you have hiked a mile. You look down and immediately realize this was a mistake. Stretching far beneath you is the rest of the forest. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10951 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 10947 S #10951 Out on a Limb~ You trip on a knot in the branch of the tree, causing you to land very heavily on your chest. Looking down at the ground far beneath you, you scrabble for a hand-hold on the branch. Whew! That was a close one. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10952 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10950 S #10952 Out on a Limb~ The branch turns up here again. Far to the west, and a little further above you, you can see the lookout tower of the elves. Apparently, this limb is part of their hunting grounds, for you see a finely crafted arrow stuck deeply in the branch. Hopefully, they won't mistake you for a large squirrel. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10951 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 10953 S #10953 Out on a Limb~ Far in the distance, you think you see the end of the branch. It is quite a hike to get to the end. You have more immediate problems, however. A very irritated woodpecker is blocking your path ahead, and the knocking of its beak against the wood is causing you to shake dangerously on the branch. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10954 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 10952 S #10954 Out on a Limb~ You are getting weary from climbing up this tree. What began as an enjoyable trek has ended up giving you an aching back and head. You peer up into the branches, wondering if the end is anywhere in sight. The incessant noise of the forest is really beginning to bother you. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10955 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10953 S #10955 Out on a Limb~ You are at the intersection of a few branches. The chattering of squirrels and the squawk of birds pounds in your head. You realize that you are intruding, but you think the display they are putting on is just a little too much. "For Thalador's sake!" You long to scream, "Shut them up!" ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10956 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10958 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10957 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10954 S #10956 Out on a Limb~ You are on a branch where life forms thrive in their fight for daily existance. Their fight can be so vicious some of them lose their lives in trying to live. You feel very aware of your unprotected back and know that you are in a vulnerable position and are out on a limb literally. ~ 0 4194304 3 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10955 S #10957 Out on a Limb~ A nasty-looking squirrel is baring its long ugly teeth at you. Although you used to think squirrels were cute and cuddly creatures, you now see them for the ugly rodents they are. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10955 S #10958 Out on a Limb~ The branch takes a sharp turn upward here, and you can see the clear blue sky ahead. You are exhausted from the long climb up here, and long for a rest. Just a few feet more... ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10955 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 10959 S #10959 Launching Pad~ Finally, you have reached the end of this very long branch. The foliage around you seems to have diminished drastically, leaving a wide open sky all around you. The end of the branch eerily resembles a plank. Going towards it does not seem like a savory idea. ~ 0 0 0 Rd 0 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 10958 S #10960 Out on a Limb~ Here and there along the branch you can see a colorful little bead or a tiny piece of cloth. You hope you will find out more about the creatures that live on this tree, and you hurry your footsteps. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10927 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10961 S #10961 Out on a Limb~ Up ahead, you can see a group of five men and women. They appear to be carrying hunting weapons, possibly spears. By their graceful movements and brightly colored clothing, you guess they are elves. You hail them, hoping they won't mistake you for game. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10960 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10962 S #10962 Out on a Limb~ This branch is teeming with life. All around you can hear the squawk of birds. You think you can distinguish crows, jays, and possibly a cuckoo or two. All of a sudden, you are mobbed by a pack of birds. Apparently, they are not happy with your intrusion. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10961 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10963 S #10963 Out on a Limb~ To the north and south are some more branches. You pause, undecided on which branch to take next. Perhaps sitting down and taking a rest would be a good idea. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10964 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10962 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10965 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 10966 S #10964 Dead End~ As you step onto this branch, it creaks loudly then falls away. Thankfully, you have quick reflexes and are able to hop off the branch before it crashes to the forest floor, far below. That was a real close one! ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10963 S #10965 Dead End~ You move out onto the branch and look around. About five feet away from you, the branch is broken sharply off. It looks like whatever was on it at the time met with a very nasty fate. Far beneath you, you see a tree branch lying on top of a skeleton on the ground. You shiver and turn back. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10963 S #10966 Out on a Limb~ You have an eerie feeling of being watched. Directly behind you, a twig snaps. Jerking violently around, you succeed in doing nothing else than becoming off-balance. You quickly drop to your knees and grab the branch for dear life. ~ 0 4 3 Rd 0 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10967 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 10963 S #10967 Out on a Limb~ You have stumbled upon a very large spider web. You have heard legends about these creatures but thought they were just that, legends. Unlike normal spiders these creatures don't live in their webs. They use it as traps for unsuspecting victims and jump out from the corner to prey upon your life. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10966 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10968 S #10968 Out on a Limb~ You wonder if this branch is ever going to end, and curse your decision to come up here. Just a few more feet you keep telling yourself. If only a cool breeze would come up ... But the air around this branch is stagnant due to the many leaves surrounding you. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10967 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10969 S #10969 Out on a Limb~ The branch makes a sharp turn upward here. You urge your aching muscles along, sorry that you ever began climbing this tree. You grab what looks like a knot in the tree and realize too late that it is some sort of fungus. You quickly grab for another handhold and find one, but now your hand is covered with goo. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10968 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 10970 S #10970 Out on a Limb~ A raven comes out of nowhere and loudly dive-bombs you. You wonder what you could have possibly done to enrage the bird. Then again, the raven is five times larger than you. Maybe it just mistook you for prey. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10971 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 10969 S #10971 Out on a Limb~ The long climb so far has left you sweaty and exhausted. You don't know how much further you can go, but you also realize that a tree branch is not a good place to take a nap. There are some thorny looking branches. Or maybe they're not part of the tree but insects! ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10970 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10972 S #10972 Out on a Limb~ Ahead, you can see the end of the limb. Your breath comes in wheezing gasps now, and you wonder if the air is actually thinner up here. Either way, you long to take a good rest. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10971 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 10973 S #10973 End of the Branch~ Finally you have reached the end of the branch. Looking out from the tree, you can see the enchanted forest stretching far off into the distance. Huge creatures of the air can be seen playing on the air currents. You long to join them in their flight and wistfully follow them with your gaze. ~ 0 0 3 Rd 0 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 10972 S #10974 Elven Tent~ As you enter the elven tent, you are astounded by the magnificance of its design. Hung on the billowy walls are shimmering paintings depicting the many creatures of the forest. Covering the floor are soft silken pillows which ask to be sat upon. You feel a deep sense of peace here. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10977 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10975 S #10975 Elven Tent~ Here in the corner of the tent, you can see the sleeping mats of the elves who live here. Woven of fine valley grasses, they are spread carefully over the interwoven branches which make up the floor of the tent. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10974 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10976 S #10976 Elven Tent~ Elves of all ages take reprieve in this section of the tent. Games of wit, skill, and dexterity can be found aplenty here. You do not recognize any of these games, nor do you think you would be capable of playing any of them. The skill of the elves is legendary. ~ 0 16777225 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10977 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10975 S #10977 Elven Tent~ Spread out on grassy mats on a short table of oak wood is a variety of food. Berries in birch baskets, a steaming and savory squirrel roast, and a kind of unidentifiable fish are asthetically arranged here. Your stomach growls in hunger at the sight of such wonderful food. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10976 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10974 S #10978 Elven Tent~ When you enter the tent, you notice the similarities and the differences between this tent and the other elven tents. Each tent of the elves is very similar in theme, but each elf has certain belief which affect the decor of their tents. This elf, for example, reveres the wind. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10981 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10979 S #10979 Elven Tent~ The sleeping quarters of the tent are the same as you have seen elsewhere in the village. Tightly woven grass mats form the bed, which is spread out carefully on interwoven branches. Hanging above the bed, you notice a wind chime which rustles and tinkles on an unnatural breeze. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10978 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10980 S #10980 Elven Tent~ What is usually an entertainment room in most tents is here a meditation room. Large sheets of gossamer enclose a very soft and ornately embroidered pillow. Elves come here to worship the wind. You can tell from the dark corners of the room that there are worshippers chanting softly with the wind. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10981 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10979 S #10981 Elven Tent~ The eating area of the tent has meager rations spread out. A glass of clear water, some simple wayfairer bread, and a couple of pine nuts are all that can be found. Clearly, this elf believes in simple living. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10980 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10978 S #10982 Elven Meeting Hall~ This is the central meeting hall of the elves. Important decisions concerning the elves are made here. To mortals, the elven meetings can seem to take all of eternity. This is because the elven life span is all but infinite, so a few years for a meeting is not too ridiculous. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10983 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10987 S #10983 Elven Meeting Hall~ A small table laden with refreshments is here. Elves are notorious for their love of food and drink, and not even a grave meeting of the elven council can take away this desire. The elven wine is rumored to be the best in the realm, and you consider snatching a glass. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10988 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10985 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10982 S #10984 Elven Tent~ A polished oaken board is the perfect display table for the sumptious delights the host of this house has provided. The finest elven wine, pressed cakes of honey and acorns, and a sumptuous squirrel roast glisten under the light falling from the top of the tent. You feel your stomach rumbling at the sight and consider taking just a few bites. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10999 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10997 S #10985 Elven Meeting Hall~ You are before the long oak table of the elven council. Here, all of the major decisions of the elven nation are carried out. Unlike mortal societies, the elven government if very loosely organized, and no single individual is ruling this realm. However, every so often, the elves elect one of their own to head the council for a certain duration and grant him special powers. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10983 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10986 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10987 S #10986 Elven Meeting Hall~ Some of the younger members of the council can be seen here in this corner. The meetings of the council can become too tedious, even for elves. They are quietly talking and playing a game of Ak-hal, a strategy game similar to chess. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10988 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10985 S #10987 Elven Meeting Hall~ In contrast to the rest of the elven surroundings, the meeting hall is very stark and simple. Clearly, functionality was the most important idea in designing this area. A few sturdy chairs can be seen along the perimeter of the building. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10982 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10985 S #10988 Elven Meeting Hall~ Council members can be seen split up into small groups here, quietly chatting in the soft silvan tongue. Their fierce faces are like stone, but they cannot hide the softness and joy that is ever-present in their eyes. The dimly lit room makes it hard to see the size and other features about it. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10986 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10983 S #10989 Elven Tent~ As you enter this tent, you notice that it is very spartan in appearance. Only the necessities are present, and nothing not originating in nature can be found. Several tent flaps have been left open, allowing the fresh breezes from the forest to waft in. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10992 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10990 S #10990 Elven Tent~ The sleeping area of this elf looks particularly uncomfortable. Not even the typical woven grass mats of most elves can be found in these quarters. Only the interwoven tree branches support his weight. The walls, too, are devoid of any adornment. Only the silk of the tent wall itself provides any decoration. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10989 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10991 S #10991 Elven Tent~ Gone, too, from this tent are the many games which tend to occupy the minds of elves. Apparently, this tent owner believes there are more important things than games to occupy the mind. At least in this area there are woven mats to sit on. The branches look mighty uncomfortable. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10992 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10990 S #10992 Elven Tent~ The fare which is spread out upon the ground is very meager. Only a glass of clear cool water, and a piece of hard wayfairer bread is available. By the looks of things, it looks like they have been here for a long while. You wonder what deep thoughts much occupy the mind of this elven owner. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10991 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10989 S #10993 Inside the Tree~ Total darkness and nothingness is what you have entered into, a void. There is nothing here to make you want to come here again. Or to enter any further. Wait... There seems to be a sound coming from further west of you. But you can't see the source of the sound. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D1 &OThe bark on this wall looks slightly out of place. ~ "bark door"~ 3 0 10922 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10994 S #10994 Inside the Tree~ This is the termite's hideout. Or rather its progress. This hole here clearly is only its handiwork on display. You wonder how much further it can go on before the whole tree is eaten away. Holes are prevalent inside showing you that things are not as they seem on the outside and this certainly holds true for this tree. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10993 S #10997 Elven Tent~ When you enter this tent, you are immediately struck by the incredible oppulence displayed throughout. Above your head you can hear the soft tinkling of a magically powered wind chime. The floors are covered with soft silken pillows, and intricate wallhangings cover the otherwise drab walls of the tent. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10984 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 10998 S #10998 Elven Tent~ Here in the sleeping quarters, you again notice the unusual amount of pampering provided by the owner. Instead of the usual woven grass mats, this elf has an elevated bed which is stuffed with sweet, dried grasses. You marvel at the simple yet elegant beauty of this tent. It is like a melding of the natural and elven-made. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10997 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 10999 S #10999 Elven Tent~ All manner of strategy games and manner of peaceful entertainment can be found in this corner of the tent. Some sort of magickal device provides a soft, lilting tune which sounds like a flute. The pillows and soft floor covering seem especially inviting, and you consider taking a rest here. ~ 0 9 0 Rd 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 10984 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 10998 S #0 #SPECIALS M 10901 spec_cast_mage M 10903 spec_healer M 10905 spec_poison M 10906 spec_cast_mage M 10907 spec_guard M 10909 spec_thief M 10910 spec_poison M 10912 spec_cast_mage M 10913 spec_guard M 10914 spec_cast_adept M 10915 spec_cast_cleric M 10918 spec_poison M 10919 spec_cast_adept M 10923 spec_guard M 10925 spec_poison S #RESETS M 0 10901 4 10903 E 0 10901 0 12 M 0 10903 1 10904 E 0 10902 0 6 E 0 10903 0 20 M 0 10902 1 10910 E 0 10904 0 12 M 0 10905 1 10911 G 0 10906 0 M 0 10904 5 10917 M 0 10906 1 10921 E 0 10909 0 20 E 0 10908 0 5 E 0 10907 0 1 M 0 10923 2 10932 E 0 10920 0 16 E 0 10921 0 20 M 0 10912 2 10934 E 0 10920 0 16 M 0 10913 2 10936 E 0 10920 0 16 E 0 10921 0 20 E 0 10932 0 5 M 0 10914 1 10938 O 0 10910 0 10938 O 0 10912 0 10939 O 0 10914 0 10939 O 0 10916 0 10940 O 0 10918 0 10941 M 0 10907 1 10948 M 0 10908 4 10948 G 0 10998 0 M 0 10909 1 10949 G 0 10999 0 M 0 10925 6 10951 M 0 10919 1 10953 G 0 10928 0 M 0 10924 1 10956 M 0 10911 1 10957 M 0 10910 1 10959 E 0 10930 0 9 M 0 10920 5 10961 E 0 10994 0 20 O 0 10993 0 10965 M 0 10918 1 10967 E 0 10929 0 5 M 0 10921 1 10970 G 0 10927 0 M 0 10922 3 10973 O 0 10931 0 10973 O 0 10911 0 10974 M 0 10927 1 10976 E 0 10933 0 20 O 0 10992 0 10977 O 0 10913 0 10978 M 0 10915 1 10980 E 0 10920 0 16 G 0 10926 0 O 0 10915 0 10982 O 0 10996 0 10983 O 0 10995 0 10984 M 0 10917 1 10985 E 0 10924 0 12 E 0 10925 0 20 O 0 10997 0 10985 O 0 10917 0 10989 M 0 10926 1 10991 O 0 10991 0 10992 M 0 10928 2 10994 E 0 10934 0 10 O 0 10919 0 10997 M 0 10916 1 10998 E 0 10920 0 16 E 0 10923 0 20 S #SHOPS 0 #$
