#27057 Dark Clearing~ You stand in a dark circular clearing. The sky is blocked out by a dome of dark branches above you. The clearing is marked out by a ring of large stone blocks. It looks as if this place might have been used for some sort of ceremony in the recent past. The dirt is covered with small hoof prints and some blood has been spilt in the center of the circle. An almost impassable, overgrown trail leaves south. Down a dark trail to the west you can see some torches flickering. ~ 97 1 3 D1 You see a large iron gate with several torches burning in the darkness. ~ path torches~ 0 0 27058 -1 D2 The brush chocked path looks as is someone has just recently tromped through it. ~ path overgrown~ 0 0 27055 -1 S
