Blackened stumps abound and the trees which still stand reek of decay. This secluded vale has obviously been destroyed by some great disaster. You are overcome by a sense of foreboding! The evil which ruined this forest may still be around! Although deeply disturbed by the destruction around you, you manage to look about to determine your position. To the North and East are the mountains which shield this valley. The area to the South of you also heads into mountains, but a path makes passage possible. An archway marks a tunnel through the eastern mountains. ^ Home e:Cottage s:Path; lflags { OutDoors } Forest Home^ You have entered a small forested area of great beauty, in sharp contrast to the destruction to the south. About you, the sounds of nature abound. If not for the memory of the tainted forest to the south, you could become easily lost in the beauty here. Just to the East of you, partially hidden by healthy trees, is a small cottage. To the North and West are the mountains which seclude this valley. ^ Cottage w:Home; lflags { Party } Dinthiar's Cottage^ You have entered the home of Dinthiar, the Elven King. It is a rather simple dwelling. A bed, table and chair are the only furnishings. However, the whole room is given a 'foresty' feel by the ivy which grows up the insides of the walls, and by the potted plants which hang from the ceiling. It is exactly the type of dwelling that you would expect an elf to have. ^ Path n:Home s:Glade; lflags { OutDoors } Forest Path^ You are walking down a forest path which seems less corrupted than the surrounding areas. Some wildlife still lives, and the trees are not rotting or dead. You see some of the beauty which once existed in this realm. To the north of you lies more vibrant forest, while to the south you see only destruction. ^ Glade n:Path e:EForest s:Shattered w:Glen; lflags { OutDoors } Ruined Glade^ You are in a small clearing in the ruins of the elven forest. The ground in this clearing is blackened and infertile. The only sign of life here is a circle of toadstools which lie near the center of the glade. All around you is ruined forest. Just to the North, however, you think you see some greenery. ^ Glen e:Glade s:Oaks; lflags { OutDoors } Warped Glen^ You have wandered into a small glen which is grotesquely warped. Trees form weird, diabolical shapes, and the area seems pervaded by the stench of brimstone. You gag to avoid breathing the fouled air. To the North and West are the mountains which shield this valley. It is quite unfortunate that they did no protect the forest from whatever destroyed it... ^ Oaks n:Glen e:Shattered s:Tainted w:Freshly; lflags { OutDoors } Blackened Oaks^ Your heart skips a beat as you enter this grove of trees. Without a doubt, this grove used to contain some of the strongest and most beautiful trees in the entire elven forest. Now, it looks as though a giant hand came down from the heavens, and simply pushed the trees down, in a line from West to East. The few Oaks which still stand have been warped into unhealthy shapes, which nature itself could never produce. Following the line of downed trees, you realize that it leads to a freshly hewn pathway in the mountains to the West. ^ Shattered n:Glade e:^tree s:Corrupted w:Oaks; lflags { OutDoors } Shattered Forest^ You cry out in horror as you witness what has been done to this forest. All about, trees lie downed, as if hewn by some giant axe. However, even the twisted corpses of the trees seem unnatural. Somehow, a single oak tree in the center of the swath of destruction seems to have survived. It lies just to the east of you. To the west, the line of destruction seems to continue. Mercifully, mountains to the east protected any further realms from this corruption. ^ Inside w:^door; lflags {} Inside the Grand Oak^ You gasp out in awe at the quiet beauty of this hidden hollow. Looking around, 'majesty' is the word which immediately comes to mind. The entire room draws your eyes upwards, like some ancient gothic cathedral. There, among the arched, wooden roof, are numerous tiny flowers, hanging from the vines which grow around you. Even in the dim light, the brilliant hues of the flowers - red, violet, blue, green, and white - stand out. Indeed, they glow with their own light, providing the majority of the illumination in this room and sending incredible, multi-colored shadows around the room. As you stare at them, something tugs at your memory. You have seen that pattern somewhere before... It is the pattern of the stars in the night sky, but of a color and brightness that the night sky can only hint at. As your eyes slowly refocus on the mundane plane, you notice a wooden throne set near the middle of this room. With a start, you realize that is has been grown from the tree itself. Once, the whole elven forest must have been like this... ^ Tainted n:Oaks e:Corrupted; lflags { OutDoors } Tainted Trees^ You are in a grove of tall trees which seem tainted. They glow with a sickly green glow which speaks of evil, pestilence and disease. You suppress a shudder and view your surroundings. To the south and west lie this forest's protective mountains, while woods lie to the east. To the North, a wide swath of destructions cuts into the heart of this realm. ^ Corrupted n:Shattered e:Scenic w:Tainted; lflags { OutDoors } Corrupted Woods^ You stand in what must have once been a very beautiful grove of trees. Now, it has been mutated beyond recognition. The grotesque shapes of the trees are all but indescribable. You get the impression that this forest has been destroyed by some great, evil force which may still lurk about... ^ Scenic n:Thorny s:Climb w:Corrupted; lflags { OutDoors } Scenic View^ Once, this mountain trail surely was the best place to view the elven forest. Now, you can only see the destruction. To the North and West, you gaze out at the corrupted, desolate land which was once so beautiful. Amid the destruction, you see a few points of life. Just to the Northeast of you stands a tall, healthy oak tree, while further to the North, you actually think you see green. The mountain trail you are on continues North and South, while a small path leads up from the forest to the West. ^ Climb n:Scenic e:Crest; lflags { OutDoors } Rocky Climb^ You are walking on a steep mountain path which leads over the top of the mountain to the east and downwards towards a ravaged forest to the North. You suspect that the view here would be quite beautiful if not for the noxious fumes wafting up from the forest below, which cause your eyes to constantly water. Looking at the forest, you believe that it must have once been quite beautiful. ^ Thorny n:EForest e:^thorns s:Scenic; lflags { OutDoors } Thorny Path^ You are ascending a path into the mountains, which continues to the North and South. The region seems just as desolate as the forest below you. The ground is cracked and dying, and the only vegetation is a thorny brush, which practically cover the path, ripping at your clothes. The entire Eastern cliff is covered by a wall of thorns. On the other side, just to the West is a sharp dropoff. Past it, you can see the entire elven forest. The corrupted view turns your stomach. ^ Passage e:NWcorner@valley w:EForest; lflags { NoMobiles } Mountain Passage^ You are walking down a long passage which has been carved out of the heart of this mountain. It is obvious that great time has been spent carving this passage. You have heard rumors of the dwarves of the North cutting a passage through to a beautiful forest for the elves of this realm. Perhaps, that beautiful, fabled realm lies to the West! ^ Freshly e:Oaks w:Cave; lflags { OutDoors } Freshly Hewn Pathway^ You stand in a pathway which is quite freshly-hewn. From the marks made during the construction of this pathway, it seems that something moved out into the forest from the west. To the west, the stench of brimstone is stronger than ever. ^ Crest e:RClearing@valley w:Climb; lflags { OutDoors NoMobiles } Mountain Crest^ You stand at the top of one of the mountains overlooking the valley. Just to the east, the path you are on becomes rather precarious, sloping sharply down into a rocky clearing. To the west, the descent is more gradual, ending in a rocky slope. You should be very careful. It looks like the area could all tumble down in a landslide in a second! ^ Cave e:Freshly w:Entry; lflags {} Guarded Cave^ You stand at the entrance to a dark cave. The destroyed forest is behind you, to the east, while to the west lies the unknown. Within the cave, you see dark shadows flittering about. The scent of brimstone is stronger than ever here, and the sense of foreboding that you felt when you first entered the forest clutches anew at you heart. You have little doubt that one of the great evils lies within this cave... ^ Entry n:Coat e:Cave d:Guard; lflags {} Entry Room^ Standing at the entrance to this system of caves, the only description which comes to mind is 'hellish.' The caverns glow with a strange red glow which speaks of nothing more than hellfire. It almost seems to you that you can hear the screams of the damned. A set of stairs leads downwards, and the heat coming from below almost knocks you out. Just to the North is a roughly carved doorway. Next to the door is a sign which says : Please check in your souls before entering. ^ Coat s:Entry; lflags {} Coat Room^ With a morbid sense of curiosity, you enter the cave where you have been directed in order to check your soul. Quite surprisingly, you are not instantly zapped by some evil being. Instead, the room seems to a quite simple coat room. Lining the walls are coats of every shape and size, checked in, no doubt, due to the heat below. You would laugh at how ridiculous this whole seen looked if not for the evil that you feel below you. ^ Guard e:^Edoor s:Treasury u:Entry; lflags {} Guard Room^ The heat in this room is stifling. As you struggle to breath the scalding air, you manage to take in the surroundings. All about, you can see squalor. A broken tables lies off to one corner, with the remnants of a meal, ages old on it, and several broken chairs litter the floor. The room itself actually reeks of garbage, and covering the walls are a dried up substance that looks suspicious like blood. A crudely letter sign on the wall reads GARD ROME. To the South is an archway that seems to lead into a somewhat cleaner room. ^ Treasury n:Guard; lflags {} Demon Treasury^ This room seems to be somewhat cleaner than the guard room to the North, but not much. The same reek of garbage pervades the air, and piles of litter have been shoved to the sides of the room. However, in the center of the room is a wooden pedestal which has been polished to perfection, and which is exceedingly clean. You have come through the only entrance to this room. ^ Stairs w:^Wdoor d:Hot; lflags {} Stairs to Hades^ You have no doubt in your mind that the stairs in the middle of this room must go down to hell itself. If you thought the earlier rooms were hot, you were obviously sadly mistaken. Here, every breath you take burns your lungs. Your skin is already beginning to blister from the intense heat, and you are worried that your clothing may spontaneously combust! As well, flames appear in the corners of this room and the smell of brimstone is so strong that it makes you want to vomit immediately. Surely, nothing but Hades itself could lie in the Inferno below... ^ Hot e:Museum s:Fungus w:^hole u:Stairs; lflags {} Hot Cavern^ You stand in a huge, natural cavern. It is not just hot, but rather almost unbearable. There certainly better be something valuable down here to make all of your suffering okay! To the south of you is another natural cavern, while to the east lies a passage which is obviously manmade. Just to the west is a stone door, set in the wall of the cavern. A diamond shaped hole lies in the center of the stone. ^ Museum n:Hate e:Mosaic s:Art w:Hot; lflags {} Demonic Museum^ You have entered what could only be a demonic museum. All about you are statues and paintings, most of which are quite grotesque. You see sculptures of demons torturing humans in many gruesome ways, as well as paintings of what must be Hades. The whole site is quite sickening. Doors lead North, East and South into additional museum rooms, while to the west lies the exit to this perverted place. ^ Mosaic w:Museum; lflags {} Mosaic Room^ The entirity of this room is covered by a huge mosaic. It covers all of the walls, as well as the ceiling and the floor. You realize immediately that the area shown in the mosaic is that which mortals call the wasteland. You see images of fire, a sword of awesome power, crystal flame and a great djinni. For a moment, you almost become lost in the awesome vision. Flaming red letters in the center of the room spell out the words, HOME, SWEET, HOME. ^ Art n:Museum; lflags {} Art Gallery^ This part of the Demonic museum seems to be entirely devoted to demonic art. The pieces are all quite horrific, and there is definitely nothing that would be valuable to sacrifice to the gods. You are almost drawn by a morbid curiosity to look at all of the terrifying pictures. The only exit out of this awful place lies to the North. ^ Fungus n:Hot s:Lake; lflags { Dark } Fungus Cavern^ You are quite delighted to find that this cavern is much cooler than the surrounding ones. In fact, the change in temperature is so dramatic that you begin to shiver uncontrollably. All about this room are various types of fungus. You can make out familiar Toadstools and Mushrooms. In addition, you see more much exotic fungus that you have never encountered before. Perhaps, you think, you are the only mortal to ever have ventured this far into the earth. Other natural caverns lie to the North and South. ^ Lake n:Fungus d:^lake; lflags { Dark } Large Lake^ Although not as cool as the marvelous fungus cavern, this room is much more comfortable than the surrounding caves. In the center of this cavern is a large lake. Looking over the walls, you notice strange writing. To you, it almost looks like elven writing, somehow corrupted. Overall, the entire cavern seems quite gloomy. You better leave this place before you get real depressed! ^ Hate s:Museum; lflags {} Hate Gallery^ All throughout this room are paintings of a gruesome undead beast. Without a doubt, it must be the Lich who, when fighting Asmodeus, was rumored to have helped cause the destruction of the elven forest. The fact that the Lich is an enemy of the demon lord here is made quite clear by the voice you hear chanting in your head. Over and over, you hear 'hate. hate. hate. hate...' ^ Boiling n:Stone e:^StoneDoor; lflags {} Boiling Lake^ You have entered another natural cavern. In the middle of the cavern is a huge lake. Indeed, the scene would appear to be quite normal if not for the fact that lake was actually boiling. It has become so hot in this room that water itself is unable to remain in its liquid form! Surely, you must escape this demonic realm soon! Avenues of retreat from here lie to the North and East. ^ Stone n:Throne s:Boiling; lflags {} Stone Room^ You stand in a perfectly cubical room, obviously not natural. What makes the room eerie is the fact that no signs of construction are visible. It is almost as if the entire room sprung from the earth in its present shape. To the South you hear the sounds of liquid boiling, while to the north, beyond a perfect archway, you see what looks like a throne room. ^ Den n:Asmodeus e:Throne s:Bedroom; lflags {} The Den^ You have entered Asmodeus' study. In the center of the room is a desk, which you realize is covered with human skin. Putting that thought out of your mind you look around the rest of the room. The walls are made of the red rock that is common throughout the caves and the smell of sulphur, like always, all but overwhelms you. Still, your eyes keep returning to that gruesome desk. Looking for exits to this room, you find three. They lie to the North, East and South. ^ Throne s:Stone w:Den; lflags {} Throne Room^ You have entered the throne room of Asmodeus, the Demon Lord who, in his battle with the evil lich, destroyed the beautiful elven forest. If that foul creature is still around, he must be destroyed! You rapidly glance around the room and see, in the middle of the room, a throne made out of human bones. You gag at the sight, and rapidly look for exits from this room. They lie to the South and West. ^ Bedroom n:Den; lflags {} Asmodeus' Bedroom^ You realize that this must be what the demonlord calls a bedroom. It is little more than a space of level rock in the center of the room. Asmodeus obviously worries little about the ordinary comforts of life. At the least, this room is not as grotesque as the study that you just passed through. ^ Asmodeus s:Den; lflags {} Asmodeus' Treasury^ You have entered the treasury of the vile demon-lord, Asmodeus. In the corner of this room sits an easy chair. Without a doubt, Asmodeus would spend long hours in here, simply counting his treasures. You grin evilly at the thought of stealing from a demon lord. ^ Entrance e:Cathedral w:^ThornsEast d:Cathedral; lflags {} The Cave Entrance^ You stand at the entrance to what appears to be a vast system of caves. A cool breeze strikes you in the face as you peer ahead into the blackness, and you sense strong evil emanating from the cavern. To the west, you see the blackened mouth of the cave, to the east, a downward sloping passage leads to darkness. ^ Cathedral n:Narrow e:EastEnd u:Entrance; lflags { Dark } Cathedral Room^ You are in a vast cavern. The ceiling is lost in shadows, but you can make out a ledge encircling the room. Evenly spaced along the ledge are stone gargoyles, which seem to be jeering at you. In the wall far to the north, you see the black mouth of a passage out, and the room seems to continue to the east, where dim light can be made out. To the south, an upward sloping passage seems to ascend to the surface. ^ EastEnd n:Planning w:Cathedral d:^Throne_Cathedral; lflags {} East End of the Cathedral^ You are now in the eastern section of the cathedral. A subdued glow emanates from a phosphorescent moss lining the walls and ceiling. Against the far eastern wall is a large throne hewn from granite. A thick layer of dust covers everything. To the north, a passage leads to a small, brightly lit room. ^ Storage e:^Storage_Door; lflags {} Storage Room^ You have walked into a small stone cubical acting as a storage room. The walls are lined with wooden shelves. A large door is located on the east wall. ^ Captain e:Narrow w:^Captain_Door; lflags {} Captain's Office^ You are standing in a sparsely furnished office. Sputtering torches provide light, but many shadows still abound. The main piece of furniture is a large oak desk in the center of the room. A large door is in the west wall, and a passageway leads to the east. ^ Narrow n:Worn s:Cathedral w:Captain; lflags { Dark } Narrow Hall^ You are in a very narrow hallway. To the south is the great cathedral, to the west is a small lit room, and the passage continues to the north. ^ Planning s:EastEnd; lflags { Dark } Planning Room^ You enter a large room which is almost entirely filled by a huge table. Upon the table sit little miniature figures, arrayed as if for combat. You can vaguely make out a label on one particularly ugly demon which says Asmodeus. Obviously, the Lich plans his grand wars here. ^ Interrogation e:Lich; lflags { Dark } Interrogation Room^ You have entered a room obviously designed to force people to talk and give great pain. A lingering smell of death and decay fills the room. Various instruments of torture fill the room, the most notable being a large rack in the center. The only exit from the room leads to the east. ^ Lich n:^Lich_Door e:Worn w:Interrogation; lflags { Dark } Lich's Prison^ You are in a dank, moldy prison. Something that looks suspiciously like dried blood covers the floor. A large door can be seen to the north, a small passage leads east, and another one leads to the west. ^ Worn n:Zombie s:Narrow w:Lich; lflags { Dark } Worn Passage^ You are in a passage worn through the years by the passing of many feet. To the west, you see a small room, and the passage continues to the south. To the north, the passage opens into what appears to be a guardroom, and the slow movements of zombies can be heard coming from it. ^ Prison s:^Prison_Door; lflags { Dark } Prison Cell^ You have entered a small prison cell. The floor is covered with hay, and a small bed sits against one wall, covered with dried blood. A skeleton hangs from chains and shackles on another wall. ^ Zombie s:Worn; lflags { Death } Zombie Guardroom^ You have entered the huge guardroom where all the Lich's troops live. Several zombie guards look up at you when you enter, and a slow spreads across their faces. Anticipating a good meal, they quickly run to you and rip you to shreds. ^ Bottom s:Guarded u:^throne; lflags { Dark } Bottom of the Stairs^ You are standing at the bottom of a small set of stairs leading up into the darkness. A small passage leads to the south, and strange sound can be heard coming from it. ^ Guarded n:Bottom s:Undead; lflags { Dark } Guarded Hallway^ You are in a small room used to guard the Lich's private rooms. A passage leads to the north, and to the south you hear a loud, hollow roar. ^ Undead n:Guarded e:Office; lflags {} Hall of the Undead^ You are standing in a room light by an unearthly glowing light. Howling shapes flow around a blackened altar in the center of the room, and you are surrounded by ghosts. Fortunately, none of the fearsome spirits seem to notice you. Exits from the room lead to the east and north. ^ Office s:Room w:Undead; lflags {} Lich's Office^ You are in the Lich's office. A large oak desk is against the north wall, covered in papers. A worn oak chair sits right in front of the desk. The Lich's bedroom lies to the south, and a hall of the undead is just to the west. ^ Room n:Office; lflags {} Lich's Room^ You stand in the Lich's bedroom. The walls are covered with tapestries, and the floor is richly carpeted. A huge feather bed is in the middle of the room. A small glowing ball provides a soft light. The Lich's office is just to the north. ^ Priest s:InTemple; lflags { Dark } Dark Priest's Lair^ You stand in a room which is consumed by darkness. Shadows flicker every- where, seeming almost alive. For a moment, you worry that your light source may be extinguished. Glancing around, through the inky darkness, you realize that you are in some type of bed room. Evil religious icons and grotesque paintings line the walls. In the corner sits an altar which is covered by a dark red liquid. Without a doubt, this is the home of the Priest of the dark elves. ^ Temple e:InTemple; lflags { Dark } Temple Treasury^ You stand in the treasury of this grand dark elven temple. This side room is just as beautiful, in its dark, alluring way, as the main worship room to the east. Looking around, you are surprised to see that the treasury is empty! A note to the side explains that the dark elven Priest has taken the treasures of the temple for its own 'protection.' ^ InTemple n:Priest s:Elf w:Temple; lflags { Dark } Inside the Temple^ You stand just inside the temple of the dark elves. Looking around, you realize that it is quite beautiful, even though the beauty seems somehow evil. You are chilled by a sense of foreboding as you think of what dark acts may have been committed inside this place of worship, for some nameless evil god. You see small archways out of this room to the North and West. ^ Elf n:InTemple e:Temple_Guard s:Cavern; lflags { Dark } Dark Elf Temple^ You have emerged into the largest subterranean cavern that you have ever seen. Above you, the roof lies somewhere beyond the radius of your light source, while to the sides of this cavern, you can just barely make out the walls. Most astounding is a temple lying in the center of this cavern, which has apparently been constructed entirely underground! The temple is made out of some type of dark stone which glows with an unholy black light. Without a doubt, this temple is dedicated to some dark deity. You may enter it to the North. Off to the east and south lie other exits from this cavern. ^ Temple_Guard w:Elf; lflags { Dark } Temple Guard Room^ You stand in the room which housed the two dark elves who guarded the temple. It is a rather dark and dreary. On the ground lie two worn mattresses while a wobbly table stands to the side. ^ Commander e:Barracks; lflags { Dark } Commander's Quarters^ You stand in a large, well-kept room. It has none of the squalor of the barracks to the East. There is a neat bed here, with a tidy table next to. If it weren't for the fact everything in this room was black, the place might actually look cheery. ^ Barracks e:Cavern w:Commander; lflags { Dark } Elven Barracks^ You are in a large barracks for the dark elf troops. The whole place seems run down. Trash litters the floor and most of the beds in this room are destroyed. It looks as if, for the most part, the dark elves do not bother to maintain an army now that their enemies, the good elves above, are gone. Exits leave these barracks to the West and East. ^ Cavern n:Elf e:Glowing s:Barracks2 w:Barracks u:Ladder; lflags { Dark } Cavern of the Dark Elves^ You have entered an enormous cavern. You are awed by the vastness of this room. As you acclimate to this dark, damp environment, you remember of the ancient legends you have heard of a dark race of elves living below the surface. Surely, this is their realm! Looking around you, this assumption is upheld by the many dark shapes you see moving in the shadows. You should move through these realms quickly. Surely the dark shapes would overwhelm you by numbers if you stayed here too long. Exits leave this cavern to the North, West, South and East, while a ladder leads up. ^ Glowing s:Fungoid w:Cavern; lflags {} Glowing Passage^ You walk down a passage which curves to the West and South. The passage is lit by an eerie green glow which seems to come from fungus growth on the walls. Ever once in a while, you think you see a dark shape at the edge of your vision, but then it could just be your imagination. ^ Barracks2 n:Cavern s:Quarters; lflags { Dark } Elven Barracks^ You are in a large barracks for the dark elf troops. The whole place seems run down. Trash litters the floor and most of the beds in this room are destroyed. It looks as if, for the most part, the dark elves do not bother to maintain an army now that their enemies, the good elves above, are gone. Exits leave these barracks to the North and South. ^ Fungoid n:Glowing; lflags {} Fungoid Cavern^ You stand in an enormous cavern which seems to be wall-to-wall fungus. Besides mushrooms and other common fungus, you also see many unusual ones, much as in the fungus cavern above. As well, the green fungus from the the passageway to the North may be seen. ^ Quarters n:Barracks2; lflags { Dark } Captain's Quarters^ You stand in a large room which seems to have been well kept. It has none of the squalor of the barracks to the North. There is a neat bed here, as well as an organized desk. However, the entire room is covered by a layer of dust. Obviously, these quarters have not been used for quite some time. The only exit is to the North. ^ Ladder u:^lake2 d:Cavern; lflags { Dark } Long Ladder^ You are midway up a very long ladder. It seems rather damp as if water constantly dripped on it. You think you can manage to keep a grip on the ladder which extends far above and below you. ^
