Though its origins are a complete mystery- nobody knows who built it, or when- it has been recognized as sacred and holy, with a bell that seems to have some mysterious properties or power. Along with its origins, the bell's power is also known by none. Nearby glows a light blue rune. ~ 43 1028 2 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 4301 E light blue rune~ The Belltower, created by Bouchart for Merc, March 2009. ~ S #4301 Path Around the Belltower~ A small circle of stones sits a few feet from the western wall of the Belltower. Although very small, each about the size of an apple, they are far too heavy to be lifted or even moved. ~ 43 0 2 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 4302 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 4313 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 4300 E stone stones~ These stones could not possibly be natural in origin; they are just too heavy! ~ S #4302 Quiet Pathway~ A tombstone stands, with its writing too weathered to be read. It might be the resting place of the former keeper of this site. While the ground around the tombstone looks like ordinary dirt and earth, it is extremely hard. Excavating the grave would be impossible. ~ 43 0 2 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 4303 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 4301 S #4303 Path of Meditation~ The air here makes a slight humming sound, and feels unusually warm. It feels quite soothing, but at the same time its unnatural presence is discomforting. ~ 43 0 2 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 4304 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 4302 S #4304 Junction~ Parts of the ground here are covered in thick moss. It feels very comfortable walking across it. Insects crawl around this place. Some head north, but then turn around, as if repelled by some force. ~ 43 0 2 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 4314 D1 ~ simple wooden door~ 1 0 4305 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 4306 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 4303 S #4305 Bellmaster's Hut~ The Bellmaster's hut is not nearly as simple as it appears to be. This hut contains a nothing but a clean bedroll, a table and chair, and a cabinet. According to tradition, the Bellmaster's few worldly possessions are passed down to his successor after his death. Yet after so many years, everything in this hut, and the hut itself, appear to be in brand new condition, as if unaffected by the passage of time. ~ 43 8 0 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 4304 S #4306 The Ivy Covered Tower Wall~ Ivy covers the eastern wall of the tower. A careful observer would notice that the ivy actually moves, albeit slowly. Perhaps it is trying to hide something? But perhaps it is just swaying in the breeze. ~ 43 0 2 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 4304 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 4307 S #4307 Silent Passage~ Tree leaves sway in the wind, but there is no sound. Nothing. Not even your own footsteps make noise here. ~ 43 0 2 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 4306 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 4308 S #4308 Belltower Entryway~ The entrance to the Belltower to the north is but a simple arched entryway. On the arch is some writing, in what one might think is the same message in several different languages. ~ 43 0 2 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 4309 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 4307 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 4313 E writing message language~ Some of the writing is decipherable. It reads: "The Bell is not holy or sacred. The Sound is." ~ S #4309 Belltower Entrance~ The Belltower itself is a simple stone building. It was first discovered about fifty years ago, but nobody knows who built it or with what means. The Belltower is about one hundred feet tall, and apparently has a basement, as a hatch cover leads down. ~ 43 8 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 4308 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 4311 D5 ~ hatch cover~ 1 0 4310 S #4310 Belltower Basement~ The basement of this Belltower is used to archive old texts. The words on the texts, written in unknown languages, glow light blue. They appear to have great importance, but their true meaning may have been lost over the ages, or perhaps not lost, but hidden. ~ 43 9 0 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 4309 S #4311 Belltower Staircase~ The Bellmaster must ascend and descend these many steps once a day to ring the bell. Given the Bellmaster's age, this is no easy task, but his entire life is dedicated to accomplishing his duty. About every twenty steps or so is a small alcove with a bench, so that the weary Bellmaster may rest. ~ 43 8 0 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 4312 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 4309 S #4312 The Bell~ Atop the tower is a large brass bell. It looks ordinary at first, but it seems to make a slight ringing sound, even when completely motionless. There is a strange sense of calm in this place. ~ 43 1032 0 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 4311 S #4313 Tranquil Passage~ A small circular reflecting pool sits here with clear, clean water. It appears to be but a few inches deep. This place is perfect for relaxation or contemplation. ~ 43 0 2 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 4301 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 4308 S #4314 Garden~ Vegetables and beans are grown in this small garden. There are potatoes, carrots, and several beanstalks. No ants, beetles, or insects of any type crawl around here. ~ 43 4 2 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 4304 S #0 #RESETS D 0 4304 1 1 * Junction D 0 4309 5 1 * Belltower Entrance O 0 4304 1 4305 * a wooden cabinet -> Bellmaster's Hut O 0 4308 1 4312 * the Belltower's brass bell -> The Bell O 0 4309 1 4314 * a peach tree -> Garden P 0 4305 1 4304 * a tin of oats -> a wooden cabinet P 0 4306 1 4304 * a jar of peaches -> a wooden cabinet P 0 4307 1 4304 * a flask of ale -> a wooden cabinet M 0 4300 1 4310 * Toruloquimint -> Belltower Basement G 0 4303 1 * a glowing note G 0 4300 1 * a translation scroll E 0 4302 1 17 * Toruloquimint's staff E 0 4301 1 0 * Toruloquimint's candle M 0 4301 1 4305 * The Bellmaster -> Bellmaster's Hut E 0 4311 1 5 * the robe of resistance M 0 4302 1 4307 * a demon informant -> Silent Passage E 0 4312 1 9 * gloves of peace M 0 4303 1 4302 * a guardian spirit -> Quiet Pathway G 0 4310 1 * the guardian spirit's eyes S #SHOPS 0 #SPECIALS M 4303 spec_cast_mage * a guardian spirit S #$
