The archway and the walls around here are made mainly of stone, but there are the bones of some huge creatures embdedded into the walls that seem almost to have grown from the stone. The archway is decorated with horrific statues of demons which cannot have come from this plane. They even seem to be watching you through the jewelled eyes set into the stone. ~ 38 8 1 D0 You can see what appears to be a huge flight of with steps leadin away and up into the air.

The steps are wide enough for the whole party to ascend side by side, and seem to go for as far away and upwards into the distance as you can see. ~ 38 8 1 D0 You see nothing special. ~ ~ 0 -1 15173 D2 You see nothing special. ~ ~ 0 -1 15170 S #15173 The Huge Bone Steps~ These steps are made from the bones of an enormous creature, and there is room for you to see through,underneath the steps. To your bewielderment,there does not appear to be anything holding these steps up against gravity,and you can only see darkness as you look in any direction except along the steps. ~ 38 12 1 D0 You see nothing special. ~ ~ 0 -1 15174 D2 You see nothing special. ~ ~ 0 -1 15172 S #15174 At the top of the Huge Bone Steps~ These steps have been constructed from the bones of some enornous creature which you cannot imagine. You can see between the steps,but it is so dark everywhere away from the steps that you can only see blackness. Looking down towards the bottom of the steps however, you can tell you are very high up. As you look towards the top you can make out something large, but from here, indistinguishable,set a little back from the top of the steps. ~ 38 12 1 D0 You can see a huge throne standing about twenty feet into the air. ~ ~ 0 -1 15175 D2 You see nothing special. ~ ~ 0 -1 15173 S #15175 The Throne of the Damned~ This is the the throne of Karak,High Lord of the Vampires. The throne stands some fifteen feet into the air,and is made of a translucent brown resin which looks as if it has been hollowed out and filled with a liquid. As you look, you realise that the liquid is moving inside the throne, and even seems to have forms inside it. You fill with horror as you realise that these are the souls of those who have crossed the path of Karak and are now trapped for eternity inside this unearthly throne. ~ 38 8 1 D2 You can see huge steps made of bone disappearing into the distance leading down. ~ ~ 0 -1 15174 S #15176 A dark hallway~ You are standing in a dark hallway running east-west. The floor is covered in a dark blue carpet that looks as if it once had a very deep plush,but is now in tatters.

The room is dark and musty,but strangely comfortable. There is a desk here,with a couple of plush red chairs next to it. There are lots of writing materials covering the desk,the light being supplied by the many glowing candles scattered around the room. ~ 38 12 1 D0 You see nothing special. ~ door~ 9 15119 15178 D2 You can see more bookshelves,but they look much older and larger than the ones in this room and look as if it would not take much to make them fall. ~ bookcase~ 9 -1 15185 S #15180 A dark hallway~ You are standing in a dark hallway running east-west.

You cannot read the inscription at the bottom of the ornate frame, but he looks very imposing and from the looks of the setting of the picture, it was painted hundreds of years ago. ~ 38 8 1 D1 You can see a spiral staircase leading up. ~ ~ 0 -1 15182 D3 You see nothing special. ~ ~ 0 -1 15180 S #15182 Bottom of the spiral staircase~ You are standing at the end of a dark hallway.

You can see vast numbers of books ascending into the darkness as far as the light will allow you to see, and you can smell the age of this place. These books must be hundreds of years old. You cannot make out the inscriptions on the sides of the books, but this place installs a feeling of fear inside you. ~ 38 8 1 D0 You can see the study. ~ bookcase~ 9 -1 15179 D2 The shelves appear to tower over even more dangerously down there. ~ ~ 0 -1 15186 S #15186 Deeper into the Black Library~ The library is even more badly lit here, and you can barely see a thing.
