It is a dead end, but well worth the sight. When you look to the northwest, you can even see MidGaard. To the west, you see tangled trails of swampland and swampwater. It seems like a very simple pattern from here. To the immediate north, you see a fairly small island--only slightly smaller than the one you are now on. To the northeast, you see a small sandbar. Just past that bar is a small creek which has only one place to land on its far bank. Past that, there is a thick, dark forest. The only things you can see in the forest are the top of a huge mushroom to the east and some kind of building. Perhaps it is some little city deep in the woods.

Some of them have greenish writing on them. A few have many colored shapes and writing. Most of them have some kind of board with little square things all over them. There are many long strange strings strewn about with some sense of purpose which no one of this world would understand. The boxes around his tables and floor give off a strange humming sound. ~ 0 ROOM_PRIVATE SECT_INSIDE DDIR_UP ~ ~ 0 -1 8470 S #0 #RESETS M 8403 100 8414 M 8403 100 8417 M 8403 100 8416 M 8403 100 8415 G 8400 3 0 M 8403 100 8419 M 8403 100 8420 M 8406 100 8418 M 8406 100 8421 G 8402 3 0 M 8406 100 8422 M 8406 100 8423 M 8406 100 8424 M 8404 100 8458 M 8404 100 8459 M 8404 100 8457 M 8404 100 8456 M 8405 100 8455 M 8405 100 8454 M 8405 100 8453 M 8405 100 8452 G 8401 3 0 S #$ XXXXXXXXXX #Savearea
