| CF | Welcome to the Cheap Glk Implementation, library version 0.9.0. | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Listen now, and hear this tale - a tale from the ancient days of Tode, | ||
| CF | a scant thirty-five years after the ascension of the Second Valley | ||
| CF | King, a day when Unnkul was in retreat but the Valley had lost the ways | ||
| CF | of Duhdha. Yea, hear this tale and listen well, for the lessons | ||
| CF | contained herein are ageless - | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | "Aaarrrgggghh!!!" | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The Valley King's anguished roar echoes through the underground | ||
| CF | cavern, waking you from a deep sleep. You yawn and stretch, rising | ||
| CF | from your hard bunk in the Warrior's Barracks, and strap on your sword. | ||
| CF | It's going to be one of those days. What horrible Unnkulian menace | ||
| CF | will His Majesty send you out to fight today? You sigh; no use putting | ||
| CF | it off. You stride down the passageway to the Great Hall, boots | ||
| CF | clattering on the stones. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Your master has never looked worse. He hasn't shaved, and he's | ||
| CF | already been into the wine this morning; an empty bottle of Chateau | ||
| CF | Unnkulia stands at his elbow. He's bent over the massive oak table, | ||
| CF | sobbing, carving something in the seasoned wood. He stares at you | ||
| CF | through bleary eyes. "Praise be!" he cries. "It's you, my most | ||
| CF | trusted warrior! You'll find her!" He leaps to his feet and, grasping | ||
| CF | your arm, leads you down the hallway. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | "Find who, Your Magnimosity?" you ask politely. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | "The Lady Amanda, fool!" the King mutters. "She's vanished! She | ||
| CF | was last seen rowing on the lake; if the Unnkulians have stolen her - " | ||
| CF | The King swallows, wiping tears from his eyes. He reaches up and | ||
| CF | unlocks an iron grate in the ceiling of the tunnel. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You gasp. The Lady Amanda! The King's betrothed! Her tinkling | ||
| CF | laugh made the dead caverns come alive, and she is beloved of all the | ||
| CF | King's subjects! If she's vanished - | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You shudder, not wanting to finish the thought. Without the fair | ||
| CF | Amanda's influence, your master will not have the strength to go on - | ||
| CF | the strength to ward off the Unnkulian menace. She must be found! | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The King slips something into your hand. "Take this," he whispers. | ||
| CF | "My seal shall protect you. Go with haste! I cannot bear to lose my | ||
| CF | lady!" | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You grasp your liege lord's shoulder. "Fear not, sire," you | ||
| CF | whisper. "She shall be found." You climb up out of the grate and | ||
| CF | blink in the bright sunshine. Behind you, the grate slams shut. You | ||
| CF | flex, muscles ripping beneath your shirt. It is a good day for a quest | ||
| CF | - and it may involve killing Unnkulians! | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | Peaceful Glade | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing in a peaceful glade in the Forest of Radeekal. The | ||
| CF | fall colors are glorious this time of year; the trees are ablaze with | ||
| CF | red, orange, and yellow. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You blink in the bright sunlight; it's been over a year since you | ||
| CF | last left the underground realm of His Majesticalness. It's good to be | ||
| CF | outside and breathe fresh air again. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Through the trees, you catch glimpses of cheerful woodland | ||
| CF | creatures, frolicking and gathering nuts and berries for the coming | ||
| CF | winter. If only you could stay here forever - but there's much to be | ||
| CF | done. Set in the forest floor is the iron grate leading back down to | ||
| CF | the realm of the Valley King. It's closed and locked. [2] A | ||
| CF | well-traveled path leads southwest, and a narrower track, nearly | ||
| CF | overgrown, leads due south. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | Knight_Otu says, "Dam Tuff? I guess we want to save early and often." | |
| MoyTW asks, "Do we take turns, have one person do it, or just all go whenever?" | ||
| DavidW says, "It's best to have a driver, one person acting for all of us, usually." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "We've been keeping someone in the driver's seat, and the others giving suggestions." | ||
| DavidW says, "I'm looking at a map I drew for this game since I don't feel like mapping today." | ||
| DavidW says, "My notes aren't complete." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "I'll try to map. Perhaps foolishly, I've put the lade in the middle." | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "note 1" | ||
| CF | [1]: Footnote markers are numbers enclosed in square brackets. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "note 2" | ||
| CF | [2]: This is, as you might have guessed, the entrance to "Unnkulian | ||
| CF | Underworld: The Unknown Unventure." You can't get there from here! | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x me" | ||
| CF | You're a hulking Valley Warrior, one of the fittest of the Valley | ||
| CF | King's soldiers. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW says, "My map indicates sw and s options here, but we should check inventory." | |
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "i" | ||
| CF | You have a bronze ring and a sword. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x ring" | ||
| CF | The bronze ring is set with the seal of His Magnimosity, the Valley | ||
| CF | King. It will provide good passage through the Forest of Radeekal, and | ||
| CF | it probably carries some weight even in other lands. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | Knight_Otu says, "Royal seal that we were promised." | |
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x sword" | ||
| CF | Your sword is your trusted friend. It's seen you through many a | ||
| CF | battle, and has the nicks and scars to prove it. Still, you keep it | ||
| CF | sharpened and polished. [3] | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW says, "oh, I might remember that ring." | |
| Knight_Otu says, "Psst." | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "note 3" | ||
| CF | [3]: You thank the Gods daily that it's not an Acme Soopur-Slysur | ||
| CF | Whepun. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW says, "The Acme-speak is dreadful." | |
| DavidW says, "super-slicer weapon" | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "Thankfully I understood this." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "But I can imagine it becoming worse." | ||
| MoyTW says, "I find it kind of endearing. But who knows how long that feeling will last." | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x trees" | ||
| CF | The fall colors are coming to the Forest of Radeekal, and the woods are | ||
| CF | bathed in shimmering yellows and reds. It's a gorgeous sight, but | ||
| CF | warriors such as yourself should remain unmoved by beauty. The trees | ||
| CF | are mostly oak and birch, with a few ash and elm thrown in for good | ||
| CF | measure, but you can't tell them apart - you're a warrior, not a | ||
| CF | botanist. Through the trees, you sometimes catch glimpses of woodland | ||
| CF | creatures, too far off to determine just which adorable snugglies - er, | ||
| CF | potential dinners - they are. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | Knight_Otu says, "You know, some warriors are rangers." | |
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x creatures" | ||
| CF | When you approach the chattering forest creatures, they scamper away | ||
| CF | before you can get a close look. You probably wouldn't recognize them | ||
| CF | anyway; you're a warrior, not a zoologist. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW says, "I think our last name is McCoy." | |
| Knight_Otu says, "Possibly." | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x grate" | ||
| CF | It's set in the forest floor. It's closed and locked. Below is only | ||
| CF | darkness. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | Knight_Otu asks, "So, south, or sw?" | |
| DavidW says, "I suspect my map may be incomplete. I didn't have that grate on it." | ||
| MoyTW says, "No opinion, we'll visit both in time I'm sure." | ||
| DavidW says, "South has fewer locations to run through." | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "s" | ||
| CF | Winding Path | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're walking on a winding path that wends its way through a | ||
| CF | particularly thick part of the forest. The trees bend low overhead, | ||
| CF | and the sunlight filtering down through the colorful leaves is dim at | ||
| CF | best. The path runs north and east. To the south is a mound of | ||
| CF | moss-covered rocks and what looks like the entrance to a small grotto | ||
| CF | or cave. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x mound" | ||
| CF | The great, jumbled mound of rocks is quite imposing. There's a dark | ||
| CF | opening near the bottom, directly to the south. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x opening" | ||
| CF | The grotto is a dark opening - you can't really see into it. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | Knight_Otu asks, "What, no darkvision from living underground?" | |
| DavidW says, "We're a warrior, not a mole man." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "That may mean the cave is a dark room." | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to David), "Heh." | ||
| MoyTW asks, "Okay so, this is 1993, was that the era where the games kill you if you walk into them without a light or something?" | ||
| DavidW says, "Sometimes, yes." | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "SAVE" | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "cf21" | ||
| CF | File to save game in > | ||
| CF | Saved. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "s" | ||
| CF | Mossy Grotto | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a mossy cave carved from the living rock. A wide | ||
| CF | exit leads back out into the sun-dappled forest to the north. The | ||
| CF | floor and walls are solid rock, covered with lichens and fungi. It's | ||
| CF | quite peaceful here. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a spray can here. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW says, "Usually you can step into darkness and step back out safely, though." | |
| DavidW says, "It's going from one dark room to another dark room where authors get bloodthirsty." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "Brighter than I expected." | ||
| DavidW says, "That can will be another Acme product, I'm sure." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "Also, maybe we could clear the save counter since we're on a new game. Not sure how to do that." | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x can" | ||
| CF | Tiny lettering on the side of the can reads: | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | "Acme Dam Phowl Snayk Rheepehlant. Guaranteed results! Shake | ||
| CF | before using. To use, spray target with repellant. In case of failure, | ||
| CF | send proof of purchase to ACME Inc., c/o The Golden Dragon Inn, | ||
| CF | Radeekal Forest, Unnkulia." | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| DavidW clears the save counter. | Knight_Otu exclaims, "Thanks!" | |
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "get repellant" | ||
| CF | Taken. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW says, "Damn Foul Snake Repellant" | |
| Knight_Otu says, "Thankfully it understands the real name." | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x lichen" | ||
| CF | It's quite soft, but rather yucky. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x walls" | ||
| CF | I don't see any walls here. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | Knight_Otu exclaims, "Lies!" | |
| DavidW asks, "Can we take any lichen?" | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "get lichen" | ||
| CF | Why would you want it? | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | MoyTW asks, "Can we...eat the lichen?" | |
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "eat lichen" | ||
| CF | You chomp on a big fistful of yucky mosses. Like most Unnkulian fungi, | ||
| CF | it's deadly poison. Urk! | ||
| CF | | ||

| DavidW says, "please VERBOSE" | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "verbose" | ||
| CF | Okay, now in WORDY mode. | ||
| CF | Winding Path | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're walking on a winding path that wends its way through a | ||
| CF | particularly thick part of the forest. The trees bend low overhead, | ||
| CF | and the sunlight filtering down through the colorful leaves is dim at | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "e" | ||
| CF | Forgotten Shrine | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The path ends in a small, dark clearing. The tree branches hang | ||
| CF | overhead, the thick canopy of leaves blocking almost all the light. | ||
| CF | The ground here is muddy and soft; your feet sink in a few inches. A | ||
| CF | granite shrine stands in the very center of the clearing. Curled | ||
| CF | around the base of the shrine is a large spotted snake, a huge monster | ||
| CF | at least twelve feet long. Leaning up against the shrine is a wooden | ||
| CF | oar. The snake is wrapped around it protectively. The only path leads | ||
| CF | back to the west. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW says, "okay, I remember this puzzle." | |
| Knight_Otu asks, "Is it a damn foul snake, I wonder?" | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x snake" | ||
| CF | The snake is beautifully marked, an alternating pattern of red, gold, | ||
| CF | and black diamonds. Inch-long fangs suggest it's probably poisonous. | ||
| CF | Written in tiny letters on its back are the words "Valley Death-Snake | ||
| CF | (TM). Hours of killing for the entire family." I guess it's one of | ||
| CF | the Valley King's guardians. It's curled around the oar, and I doubt | ||
| CF | it would let go. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW says, "It's a snake. It's not foul." | |
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x oar" | ||
| CF | The snake is wrapped around it protectively. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x shrine" | ||
| CF | It's a shrine dedicated to some long-forgotten prophet - Duhdha by | ||
| CF | name. No one's worshipped here for years. The shrine's a simple, | ||
| CF | modest granite pillar. You don't really know its significance - you're | ||
| CF | a warrior, not a priest. Tangled vines hang over the shrine, and weeds | ||
| CF | have sprung up around the bottom of the pillar. [4] | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "note 4" | ||
| CF | [4]: In the VK2 era, Duhdism is on the decline in the Valley. By VK3 | ||
| CF | (the time of UU1), Duhdism again will be the religion of Tode. | ||

| CF | You shake the can vigorously. Suddenly, the can starts to hiss | ||
| CF | ominously - and then, without warning, it explodes, sending metal | ||
| CF | shards flying everywhere. Amazingly, you are unharmed - but the can | ||
| CF | has disintegrated! | ||

| CF | The bronze ring is set with the seal of His Magnimosity, the Valley | ||
| CF | King. It will provide good passage through the Forest of Radeekal, and | ||
| CF | it probably carries some weight even in other lands. | ||
| CF | | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "show seal to snake" | ||
| CF | The snake regards the ring silently. It seems a bit puzzled. I think | ||
| CF | it recognizes the King's seal, but it doesn't understand why you're | ||
| CF | showing the ring to it. | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "get oar" | ||
| CF | You grab for the oar. The snake eyes you suspiciously, but doesn't | ||
| CF | lash out. For a moment, you think you're going to get away with it - | ||
| CF | and then, a few coils loop around your hand. You cry out as your wrist | ||
| CF | snaps, crushed in the tightening grasp of the snake. You pass out, and | ||

| CF | Winding Path | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're walking on a winding path that wends its way through a | ||
| CF | particularly thick part of the forest. The trees bend low overhead, | ||
| CF | and the sunlight filtering down through the colorful leaves is dim at | ||
| CF | best. The path runs north and east. To the south is a mound of | ||
| CF | moss-covered rocks and what looks like the entrance to a small grotto | ||

| CF | Peaceful Glade | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing in a peaceful glade in the Forest of Radeekal. The | ||
| CF | fall colors are glorious this time of year; the trees are ablaze with | ||
| CF | red, orange, and yellow. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Through the trees, you catch glimpses of cheerful woodland | ||
| CF | creatures, frolicking and gathering nuts and berries for the coming | ||
| CF | winter. If only you could stay here forever - but there's much to be | ||
| CF | done. Set in the forest floor is the iron grate leading back down to | ||
| CF | the realm of the Valley King. It's closed and locked. [2] A | ||
| CF | well-traveled path leads southwest, and a narrower track, nearly | ||
| CF | overgrown, leads due south. | ||

| CF | his thinking; you're a warrior, not a philosopher. But he is, after | ||
| CF | all, the king. Paths wind through the woods to the north, west, and | ||
| CF | northeast. The hut is to the south. Through the trees to the west, | ||
| CF | you can see sunlight glinting off the waters of Lake Draounheer. | ||

| DavidW says, "yup" | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "Didn't even notice that one." | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x hut" | ||
| CF | The retreat is a rickety hut made from mud and bits of wood and | ||
| CF | thatch. For the life of you, you can't imagine why the Valley King | ||
| CF | would leave his comfortable underground tunnels for this dump. You've | ||
| CF | never been allowed inside before - but His Pomposity *did* say you had | ||
| CF | the run of the kingdom - | ||

| CF | scratched through it. Underneath that is a single word - "Hawt." | ||

| CF | Valley, you played in these woods as a child, scampering through the | ||
| CF | woods, looking for animal tracks, and climbing trees. The path bends | ||
| CF | here, running south and northeast. The trees also thin out to the | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x radberries" | ||
| CF | Native to the forest of Radeekal, radberries are a delicacy in all of | ||

| CF | they see you picking berries. "Whadya think yer doin', buddy?" the | ||
| CF | burly leader says. "Yer under arrest!" The Patrol surrounds you, | ||
| CF | pointing their pikes at your soft, fleshy parts. You protest, claiming | ||
| CF | that you're the Valley King's servant - but it's too late for that now. | ||
| CF | The guards pummel you into unconsciousness and dump you in the lake. | ||

| CF | The fall colors are coming to the Forest of Radeekal, and the woods are | ||
| CF | bathed in shimmering yellows and reds. It's a gorgeous sight, but | ||
| CF | warriors such as yourself should remain unmoved by beauty. The trees | ||
| CF | are mostly oak and birch, with a few ash and elm thrown in for good | ||
| CF | measure, but you can't tell them apart - you're a warrior, not a | ||
| CF | botanist. Through the trees, you sometimes catch glimpses of woodland | ||

| CF | potential dinners - they are. | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're seated on the branch of an old oak tree. You don't dare | ||
| CF | climb any higher; the wind's picking up, and you're afraid of heights | ||
| CF | as it is. Below you, the forest floor appears to be quite hard. Your | ||
| CF | stomach is feeling a bit queasy, and you're having trouble keeping your | ||
| CF | balance. With effort, you pry your eyelids open and look around you. | ||
| CF | To the west, through the branches, you can see the sandy beaches of | ||
| CF | Lake Draounheer. To the northeast, you catch a glimpse of what appears | ||
| CF | to be a wooden roof. Further along the branch is an unfinished bird's | ||
| CF | nest. The only way out of here is (gulp) back down. | ||
| CF | | ||

| CF | when complete. There's nothing in the bird's nest. A sudden attack of | ||

| CF | Valley, you played in these woods as a child, scampering through the | ||
| CF | woods, looking for animal tracks, and climbing trees. The path bends | ||
| CF | here, running south and northeast. The trees also thin out to the | ||
| CF | west, and the land slopes up in that direction. There's a radberry | ||

| CF | Warriors. The King lets them patrol the forest, and hopes they won't | ||
| CF | do too much harm. They're quite stupid-looking (even more so than you) | ||
| CF | and you're almost certain that their foreheads slope a bit more than | ||
| CF | normal. They're dressed in the green-and-white livery of His | ||
| CF | Holymutha, the Valley King, and wielding nasty-looking pikes. The | ||
| CF | leader of the Valley Patrol waves at you. "Hiya!" he says, grinning. | ||
| CF | He's missing some - well, actually, *all* of his front teeth. | ||

| CF | fearsome monsters. To the north stands a newly-built lighthouse, the | ||

| CF | Scenic View | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on the highest plateau on this side of the lake. | ||
| CF | Below, to the south, the forest stretches out, a vast expanse of | ||
| CF | impenetrable green foliage. To the southwest and west, you can see the | ||
| CF | waters of Lake Draounheer, sparkling in the bright sunshine, while | ||
| CF | across the lake are the snow-capped peaks of the Beegas'hell mountains. | ||
| CF | North of the lake is the vast unknown reaches of the Damsogee Swamp, | ||
| CF | unexplored by mortal man and said to be home to ferocious beasts and | ||
| CF | fearsome monsters. To the north stands a newly-built lighthouse, the | ||
| CF | latest public work ordered by the Valley King, its stone walls | ||
| CF | impressive and firm. The entrance to the lighthouse stands open to the | ||
| CF | north. The only other safe path down from the plateau leads back | ||
| CF | toward the cliff to the southwest. | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | Cliff Top | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing at the top of a rocky cliff, overlooking Lake | ||
| CF | Draounheer to the west. It's rather frightening, for you suffer from | ||
| CF | extreme vertigo - in fact, you're feeling a little shaky. [7] To the | ||
| CF | east, a path runs downhill back into the forest, and another path | ||
| CF | leading south slopes down to the lake. You could follow the cliff | ||
| CF | northeast as well; the land slopes up in that direction, but at least | ||
| CF | it's further away from the edge of the cliff. Across the lake are the | ||
| CF | sinister Beegas'hell Mountains, the heart of the Unnkulian menace that | ||
| CF | no doubt your liege shall soon deal with. | ||

| CF | temperature is brisk but pleasant. Like many of the children of the | ||
| CF | Valley, you played in these woods as a child, scampering through the | ||
| CF | woods, looking for animal tracks, and climbing trees. The path bends | ||
| CF | here, running south and northeast. The trees also thin out to the | ||
| CF | west, and the land slopes up in that direction. There's a radberry | ||

| CF | do too much harm. They're quite stupid-looking (even more so than you) | ||
| CF | and you're almost certain that their foreheads slope a bit more than | ||
| CF | normal. They're dressed in the green-and-white livery of His | ||
| CF | Holymutha, the Valley King, and wielding nasty-looking pikes. The | ||

| CF | Peaceful Glade | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing in a peaceful glade in the Forest of Radeekal. The | ||
| CF | fall colors are glorious this time of year; the trees are ablaze with | ||
| CF | red, orange, and yellow. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Through the trees, you catch glimpses of cheerful woodland | ||
| CF | creatures, frolicking and gathering nuts and berries for the coming | ||
| CF | winter. If only you could stay here forever - but there's much to be | ||
| CF | done. Set in the forest floor is the iron grate leading back down to | ||
| CF | the realm of the Valley King. It's closed and locked. [2] A | ||
| CF | well-traveled path leads southwest, and a narrower track, nearly | ||
| CF | overgrown, leads due south. | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing outside the Valley King's forest retreat. It's a | ||
| CF | simple hut where His Regalness sheds the trappings of modern | ||
| CF | civilization and gets back to nature. You don't entirely understand | ||
| CF | his thinking; you're a warrior, not a philosopher. But he is, after | ||
| CF | all, the king. Paths wind through the woods to the north, west, and | ||
| CF | northeast. The hut is to the south. Through the trees to the west, | ||
| CF | you can see sunlight glinting off the waters of Lake Draounheer. | ||

| CF | on this side of the lake, you could truly find peace. Gentle waves lap | ||
| CF | at the shore, and reeds bend gracefully in the brisk fall breezes. To | ||
| CF | the east, a path leads back into the forest. North of here, the land | ||
| CF | slopes up sharply, and the path continues. You could also go southwest, | ||
| CF | along the shore of the lake - further along, the grassy lakeshore turns | ||

| CF | Swamp Trail | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're walking on a twisting trail that runs deep into the heart of | ||
| CF | the Damsogee Swamp. Dying plants sprout from waterlogged soil, and | ||
| CF | low-lying fog hugs the ground like a burial shroud. Even the bright | ||
| CF | afternoon sun is having trouble burning off the thick mist. It's quite | ||
| CF | depressing here. The trail continues northwest and southeast. The | ||
| CF | ground looks fairly solid to the west; you could probably find a path | ||
| CF | that way as well. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a gilded cage here. | ||

| CF | North Shore | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're on the north shore of Lake Draounheer, at the southern edge | ||
| CF | of the infamous Damsogee Swamp. This is unexplored territory now; | ||
| CF | you've left the safety of the Forest of Radeekal for dangerous and | ||
| CF | uncharted wilderness. Perhaps a wiser man would turn back now - but | ||
| CF | you are a Valley Warrior, and know no fear. Mist swirls at the water's | ||
| CF | edge, and reeds bend in the cold, damp breeze. Two paths lead into the | ||
| CF | swamp, one due north, the other northwest. The path is surprisingly | ||
| CF | well-traveled; small footprints lead north. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a rowboat, an oar, a brass lamp, a thin wand, a bronze ring, | ||
| CF | a sword, a small leather pouch, a pair of erasers, a wine bottle, a | ||
| CF | soft pretzel, a spade, a handful of radberries, and a trowel here. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're feeling a fuzz hungry. Perhaps it would be a good time to find | ||
| CF | something to eat. | ||

| CF | the west. There's little of interest up here. | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "dig mound with shovel" | ||
| CF | To heck with your ancient ancestors - you've got a quest to finish! | ||
| CF | You bend to your labors and start digging. It's back-breaking work, | ||
| CF | but you've soon made a sizeable hole in the top of the mound. | ||
| CF | Suddenly, your spade breaks through the muddy earth, vanishing into | ||
| CF | what must be a vast cavern far below! You leap from the hole, | ||
| CF | surprised. | ||

| CF | You scramble down into the dark hole - | ||

| CF | Musty Tomb | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in an ancient chamber inside the burial mound. High | ||
| CF | above your head, the muddy hole you dug beckons you - but there's no | ||
| CF | way to reach it. The walls of the chamber are hard-packed sod, but the | ||
| CF | floor is solid stone, good Unnkulian granite. A massive stone coffin | ||
| CF | stands in the very center of the room. The only exit from the chamber | ||
| CF | is a narrow passage sloping down to the west, vanishing into darkness. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | It doesn't seem likely that the fair Amanda could have come down | ||
| CF | here; surely, you were the first to dig into the burial mounds. Still, | ||
| CF | there doesn't appear to be any way back up. It appears that searching | ||
| CF | these ancient tombs for another exit to the surface is your only | ||
| CF | option. | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x lamp" | ||
| CF | The brass lamp has no apparent source of fuel; it must be magical. | ||

| CF | a dim greenish light. | ||

| CF | The coffin is quite large. A figure of a bearded and armored warrior, | ||
| CF | eyes closed and hands folded across his chest, is carved on the lid. | ||
| CF | Words are carved on the side - you recognize the language as early | ||
| CF | Ulian, a quite difficult and arcane tongue. | ||

| CF | Mystical Cavern | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a vast, mystical cavern. Stalactites shimmer in | ||
| CF | the pale green lamplight, and brightly-colored beds of moss catch your | ||
| CF | eye. Pale glowing mists swirl at your feet. Shadows seem to leap from | ||
| CF | dark crevices in the corner, and breezes, some cold, some hot, nip at | ||
| CF | your cheeks. Magic seems to flow from the very rocks, tingling your | ||
| CF | toes. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You've obviously stumbled into a vast, uncharted underworld. (Big | ||
| CF | surprise.) Could the fair Amanda have passed this way? Though you | ||
| CF | entered these caverns through the tombs, the footprints from the lake | ||
| CF | did lead back into the swamps; perhaps Amanda found another way down | ||
| CF | here. Only exploration will truly tell the tale. Tunnels run north | ||
| CF | and south, and a narrow crawl climbs up to the east. At the west end | ||
| CF | of the cavern is a freshly whitewashed gazebo. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW says, "Let's find out if Gollum is here too." | |
| DavidW says, "An underground gazebo." | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x gazebo" | ||
| CF | The gazebo is perhaps twenty feet high, with a tiny steeple on top. In | ||
| CF | the steeple, you can just make out a bell hanging from the roof. The | ||
| CF | gazebo is at the west end of the cavern. [15] | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "note 15" | ||

| CF | In the Gazebo | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in the whitewashed gazebo in the mystical cavern. | ||
| CF | It's quite peaceful here; the moss-covered cavern floor outside muffles | ||
| CF | most sounds. Faint flowery smells reach your nostrils, and you feel | ||
| CF | quite relaxed. Truly, there is an almost magical tranquillity here. | ||
| CF | High above you, you can see the steeple bell. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | A long rope is attached to the bell, the other end dangling just | ||
| CF | above the floor. You can only go back to the east from here. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW says, "climb rope" | |
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x rope" | ||
| CF | The rope hangs down from above; it appears to be attached to the bell | ||
| CF | overhead. | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "climb rope" | ||
| CF | You shinny partway up the rope. The bell rings loudly as you pull on | ||
| CF | the rope, resounding through the cavern and sending vibrations along | ||
| CF | the rope. Your hands sting from the shocks, and you drop to the | ||
| CF | ground. You're not getting up there that way. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW says, "hmph" | |

| CF | Altar Chamber | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing in a chamber cut from dark obsidian. Somehow, you | ||
| CF | feel at peace here. Obviously, this is some kind of temple to one of | ||
| CF | the gods of ancient Ul. Patterned mosaics cover the floor, and the | ||
| CF | black walls are streaked with swirls of white marble. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | A simple, featureless altar made from dark gray granite is built | ||
| CF | into the northern wall. Above the altar, some writing has been carved | ||
| CF | into the black stones. Identical passages run south, east, and west. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | There's an old monk here, seated on the altar. He looks like he | ||
| CF | hasn't slept or eaten in days, and appears to be very distressed. He | ||
| CF | glances up as you enter. "Welcome, Valley Warrior." | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x monk" | ||

| CF | to behave, what to do, what to eat - ' | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a rough-hewn cave at the top of a long-forgotten | ||
| CF | mine shaft. A thick vein of gold ore runs diagonally across the east | ||
| CF | wall, glowing in the pale green lamplight. A narrow squeeze runs west, | ||
| CF | but you're not going to get through there if you're carrying a lot. To | ||
| CF | the south, the deep mine shaft runs down. Mudslides and rockfalls have | ||
| CF | taken their toll, and the shaft is slippery and cluttered, but still | ||
| CF | negotiable. Still, I doubt if you could climb back up. A wider, | ||
| CF | straight passage runs north. | ||

| CF | the wall, revealing a very narrow tunnel to the east. Attached to the | ||
| CF | northern wall is a long wooden shelf. Otherwise, the room is quite | ||
| CF | featureless. A passage runs back to the west. | ||

| CF | Altar Chamber | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing in a chamber cut from dark obsidian. Somehow, you | ||
| CF | feel at peace here. Obviously, this is some kind of temple to one of | ||
| CF | the gods of ancient Ul. Patterned mosaics cover the floor, and the | ||
| CF | black walls are streaked with swirls of white marble. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | A simple, featureless altar made from dark gray granite is built | ||
| CF | into the northern wall. Above the altar, some writing has been carved | ||
| CF | into the black stones. Identical passages run south, east, and west. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a small cardboard box and a cookbook here. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | There's an old monk here, seated on the altar. He looks like he | ||
| CF | hasn't slept or eaten in days, and appears to be very distressed. He | ||
| CF | glances up as you enter. "Welcome, Valley Warrior." | ||

| CF | eye. Pale glowing mists swirl at your feet. Shadows seem to leap from | ||
| CF | dark crevices in the corner, and breezes, some cold, some hot, nip at | ||
| CF | your cheeks. Magic seems to flow from the very rocks, tingling your | ||

| CF | hang over your head. Luckily, enclosed spaces don't bother you - only | ||

| CF | bottom of Lake Draounheer! Somehow, you've gotten around to the | ||
| CF | western side of the lake. Perhaps if you strain your eyes, you might | ||
| CF | make out the King's Lake View room on the other side - but no; the lake | ||
| CF | is too wide, and the waters too muddy. Identical passages run | ||
| CF | northeast, northwest, west, and south. To the north is a thick steel | ||
| CF | door, which is closed. A sign hangs just above the glass wall. | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | So there is another exit to the surface from this strange | ||
| CF | underworld! Perhaps Amanda passed this way after all - and maybe your | ||
| CF | exploration of these caves is not in vain! | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | To the west is a great iron door, covered in sinister carvings. | ||

| CF | Forge | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in what must be an ancient forge. Dark wooden beams | ||
| CF | support a sagging stone roof, and the floor is stained with droplets of | ||
| CF | metal. A giant pair of bellows, attached to a huge crucible, stands in | ||
| CF | the very center of the room. To one side is a huge grindstone. The | ||
| CF | only exit is to the northeast. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | A burly man in a blacksmith's apron is seated at the grindstone, | ||
| CF | methodically sharpening his axe. Sparks fly as metal touches stone. | ||

| Knight_Otu says, "Possibly." | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x smith" | ||
| CF | The smith, a mighty man is he, with strong and sinewy hands. He's busy | ||
| CF | sharpening his axe, and he's not paying any attention to you. Now that | ||

| CF | you can see right through him! | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x bellows" | ||
| CF | When a fire is lit under the crucible, the bellows are used to make the | ||

| CF | You're standing in the whitewashed gazebo in the mystical cavern. | ||

| CF | most sounds. Faint flowery smells reach your nostrils, and you feel | ||
| CF | quite relaxed. Truly, there is an almost magical tranquillity here. | ||

| CF | bounce again, higher and higher. The bell's almost in reach; in fact, | ||
| CF | you can just about grab the edge - suddenly, you find yourself - | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Hanging on the Edge of the Bell | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're hanging on the edge of the bell, a good fifteen feet above | ||
| CF | the gazebo floor. The height is making you quite queasy, and the | ||
| CF | gentle rocking of the bell isn't helping you any. You can't seem to | ||
| CF | let go; you're having trouble prying your fingers from the bell's shiny | ||
| CF | surface. The only exit is (gulp) down. A long rope is tied to the | ||
| CF | edge of the bell, right near your fingers. It hangs down to the floor | ||
| CF | below. | ||

| CF | ground below. | ||

| CF | Unnkulians, the dread enemies of your beloved master, the Valley King. | ||

| CF | Lake Draounheer's western shore, to the southeast; the walls of what | ||
| CF | appear to be some sort of monastery; and, on top of the highest of the | ||
| CF | mountains, a giant boulder, perched quite precariously. Unfortunately | ||

| CF | On Top of the Burial Mound | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on top of the burial mound, perhaps thirty feet | ||
| CF | above the damp, swampy ground below. To the south, you can just make | ||
| CF | out Lake Draounheer through the mist, and to the southeast, the | ||
| CF | clifftop and the lighthouse. The only safe path off the mound is to | ||
| CF | the west. There's little of interest up here. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "d" | ||
| CF | You scramble down into the dark hole - | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Musty Tomb | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in an ancient chamber inside the burial mound. High | ||
| CF | above your head, the muddy hole you dug beckons you - but there's no | ||
| CF | way to reach it. The walls of the chamber are hard-packed sod, but the | ||
| CF | floor is solid stone, good Unnkulian granite. A massive stone coffin | ||
| CF | stands in the very center of the room. The only exit from the chamber | ||
| CF | is a narrow passage sloping down to the west, vanishing into darkness. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a trampoline here. | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "w" | ||
| CF | Mystical Cavern | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a vast, mystical cavern. Stalactites shimmer in | ||
| CF | the pale green lamplight, and brightly-colored beds of moss catch your | ||
| CF | eye. Pale glowing mists swirl at your feet. Shadows seem to leap from | ||
| CF | dark crevices in the corner, and breezes, some cold, some hot, nip at | ||
| CF | your cheeks. Magic seems to flow from the very rocks, tingling your | ||
| CF | toes. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Tunnels run north and south, and a narrow crawl climbs up to the | ||
| CF | east. At the west end of the cavern is a freshly whitewashed gazebo. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see an oar, a wine bottle, a brown book, a spade, a trowel, and | ||
| CF | a handful of crabgrass here. | ||

| CF | Altar Chamber | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing in a chamber cut from dark obsidian. Somehow, you | ||
| CF | feel at peace here. Obviously, this is some kind of temple to one of | ||
| CF | the gods of ancient Ul. Patterned mosaics cover the floor, and the | ||
| CF | black walls are streaked with swirls of white marble. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | A simple, featureless altar made from dark gray granite is built | ||
| CF | into the northern wall. Above the altar, some writing has been carved | ||
| CF | into the black stones. Identical passages run south, east, and west. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a small cardboard box and a cookbook here. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | There's an old monk here, seated on the altar. He looks like he | ||
| CF | hasn't slept or eaten in days, and appears to be very distressed. He | ||
| CF | glances up as you enter. "Welcome, Valley Warrior." | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "monk, hi" | ||
| CF | The monk waves half-heartedly. "You've lost the ways of Duhdha," he | ||
| CF | murmurs mournfully. | ||

| Knight_Otu says, "We do still have the figurine." | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "show figurine to monk" | ||
| CF | The monk smiles. "I already have one, my child. Keep it; your | ||
| CF | carrying of Duhdha's image sets a good eggsample for your fellow | ||
| CF | warriors." | ||

| CF | Monk's Kitchen | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're in a small, square chamber with a low ceiling. In the center | ||
| CF | of the room is a rusty oven. It appears to have been pulled away from | ||
| CF | the wall, revealing a very narrow tunnel to the east. Attached to the | ||
| CF | northern wall is a long wooden shelf. Otherwise, the room is quite | ||

| Knight_Otu says, "As I recall, it was used to show if there's a prompt, such as a yes/no prompt." | ||
| DavidW says, "I saw a prompt." | ||
| DavidW says, "You went east into Monk's Kitchen." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "Yeah, and there I typed put all in pocket..." | ||
| DavidW asks, "I didn't see you do that. Was that here?" | ||
| Knight_Otu asks, "...I suspect the game choke on trying to put the oven into the pocket?" | ||
| DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "look" | DavidW says, "oh I see. Yeah, maybe the game did choke." | |
| DavidW says, "This game really isn't that ALL friendly." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "True." | ||
| DavidW asks, "Is there another % command that will help us here? Or do we need to %quit and restore?" | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "I honestly only know showpartial and quit." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "I know there are others, but I don#t know which." | ||
| DavidW asks, "I only know %quit. How did you learn %showpartial?" | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "I saw it used in older transcripts." | ||
| DavidW pushes the green 'space' button. | ||
| DavidW presses the yellow enter button. | Knight_Otu says, "On the plus side, it happened early in the session. I think all we lost is the crabgrass." | |
| DavidW says, "And moving the trampoline." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "True." | ||
| DavidW says, "Go ahead and %quit unless you want to guess if any other %words work." | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "%quit" | ||
| CF says, "game ended by request of Knight_Otu." | Knight_Otu says, "No point guessing, really." | |

| CF | | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Listen now, and hear this tale - a tale from the ancient days of Tode, | ||
| CF | a scant thirty-five years after the ascension of the Second Valley | ||
| CF | King, a day when Unnkul was in retreat but the Valley had lost the ways | ||
| CF | of Duhdha. Yea, hear this tale and listen well, for the lessons | ||
| CF | contained herein are ageless - | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | "Aaarrrgggghh!!!" | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The Valley King's anguished roar echoes through the underground | ||
| CF | cavern, waking you from a deep sleep. You yawn and stretch, rising | ||
| CF | from your hard bunk in the Warrior's Barracks, and strap on your sword. | ||
| CF | It's going to be one of those days. What horrible Unnkulian menace | ||
| CF | will His Majesty send you out to fight today? You sigh; no use putting | ||
| CF | it off. You stride down the passageway to the Great Hall, boots | ||
| CF | clattering on the stones. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Your master has never looked worse. He hasn't shaved, and he's | ||
| CF | already been into the wine this morning; an empty bottle of Chateau | ||
| CF | Unnkulia stands at his elbow. He's bent over the massive oak table, | ||
| CF | sobbing, carving something in the seasoned wood. He stares at you | ||
| CF | through bleary eyes. "Praise be!" he cries. "It's you, my most | ||
| CF | trusted warrior! You'll find her!" He leaps to his feet and, grasping | ||
| CF | your arm, leads you down the hallway. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | "Find who, Your Magnimosity?" you ask politely. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | "The Lady Amanda, fool!" the King mutters. "She's vanished! She | ||
| CF | was last seen rowing on the lake; if the Unnkulians have stolen her - " | ||
| CF | The King swallows, wiping tears from his eyes. He reaches up and | ||
| CF | unlocks an iron grate in the ceiling of the tunnel. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You gasp. The Lady Amanda! The King's betrothed! Her tinkling | ||
| CF | laugh made the dead caverns come alive, and she is beloved of all the | ||
| CF | King's subjects! If she's vanished - | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You shudder, not wanting to finish the thought. Without the fair | ||
| CF | Amanda's influence, your master will not have the strength to go on - | ||
| CF | the strength to ward off the Unnkulian menace. She must be found! | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The King slips something into your hand. "Take this," he whispers. | ||
| CF | "My seal shall protect you. Go with haste! I cannot bear to lose my | ||
| CF | lady!" | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You grasp your liege lord's shoulder. "Fear not, sire," you | ||
| CF | whisper. "She shall be found." You climb up out of the grate and | ||
| CF | blink in the bright sunshine. Behind you, the grate slams shut. You | ||
| CF | flex, muscles ripping beneath your shirt. It is a good day for a quest | ||
| CF | - and it may involve killing Unnkulians! | ||

| CF | Peaceful Glade | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing in a peaceful glade in the Forest of Radeekal. The | ||
| CF | fall colors are glorious this time of year; the trees are ablaze with | ||
| CF | red, orange, and yellow. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You blink in the bright sunlight; it's been over a year since you | ||
| CF | last left the underground realm of His Majesticalness. It's good to be | ||
| CF | outside and breathe fresh air again. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Through the trees, you catch glimpses of cheerful woodland | ||
| CF | creatures, frolicking and gathering nuts and berries for the coming | ||
| CF | winter. If only you could stay here forever - but there's much to be | ||
| CF | done. Set in the forest floor is the iron grate leading back down to | ||
| CF | the realm of the Valley King. It's closed and locked. [2] A | ||
| CF | well-traveled path leads southwest, and a narrower track, nearly | ||
| CF | overgrown, leads due south. | ||

| CF | River Bank | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on the bank of a rushing mountain river. The bank | ||
| CF | is grassy and slopes gently down to the water. The swift-moving river | ||
| CF | babbles gentle murmurings, and a sweet-smelling breeze blows from the | ||
| CF | north. It's peaceful here, and quite relaxing. A trail leads back up | ||
| CF | into the Beeg'ashell Mountains to the southwest. The river is to the | ||
| CF | north, and flows down from the west. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | There's a beautiful woman seated at the water's edge - could it be | ||
| CF | the fair Amanda? But no - Amanda is blond, while this woman's hair is | ||
| CF | auburn. Her face is narrower, and her eyes are quite different. She | ||
| CF | glances over her shoulder and smiles invitingly. "Welcome, Warrior." | ||
| CF | Her voice is musical, lilting, her accent like nothing you've ever | ||
| CF | heard before. | ||

| DavidW says, "okay" | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "sw" | ||
| CF | Mountain Trail | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're walking on a rocky mountain trail that slopes down the side of | ||
| CF | the mountain. There's almost no vegetation here; a few roots poke from | ||
| CF | the ground, but the plants here appear to be dying. The trail slopes | ||
| CF | down to the northeast and up to the south. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW says, "No more putting ovens in pockets." | |
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "s" | ||
| CF | Mountain Pass | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing just northwest of a dark cave, somewhere in the | ||
| CF | Beeg'ashell Mountains. Inside the cave entrance, you can just make out | ||
| CF | a set of stone stairs sloping down, back into the heart of the | ||
| CF | mountains. Rough patches of crabgrass struggle for life here and | ||
| CF | there, poking through cracks in the rocky mountain soil. A trail | ||
| CF | climbs up to the west, while another slopes down to the north. A | ||
| CF | third, level trail leads due south. It's quite cold here, and a chill | ||
| CF | wind whips across the rocky hills. The cave entrance is back to the | ||
| CF | southeast. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | Knight_Otu says, "I'll try." | |
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "se" | ||
| CF | Exit to Surface | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a carved square chamber with an arched roof. | ||
| CF | Stairs climb up to the northwest, and bright sunlight filters down, | ||
| CF | bathing the room in a pale yellow glow. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | To the west is a great iron door, covered in sinister carvings. | ||
| CF | It's closed. Passages run north and southwest as well. From the | ||
| CF | southwest, a faint grinding noise echoes up the passage. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | Knight_Otu says, "And I honestly couldn't expect that outcome." | |
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "n" | ||
| CF | Lake View | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing in a square chamber carved from the rock. The | ||
| CF | eastern wall of the chamber is made from what appears to be transparent | ||
| CF | glass - and through it, you can see water and what must be the muddy | ||
| CF | bottom of Lake Draounheer! Somehow, you've gotten around to the | ||
| CF | western side of the lake. Perhaps if you strain your eyes, you might | ||
| CF | make out the King's Lake View room on the other side - but no; the lake | ||
| CF | is too wide, and the waters too muddy. Identical passages run | ||
| CF | northeast, northwest, west, and south. To the north is a thick steel | ||
| CF | door, which is closed. A sign hangs just above the glass wall. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "ne" | ||
| CF | Tunnel Fork | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing at a fork in a low tunnel cut through the deep | ||
| CF | bedrock of the land. The walls are close around you, and tons of rock | ||
| CF | hang over your head. Luckily, enclosed spaces don't bother you - only | ||
| CF | heights do. Passages run north, east, and southwest. All are about | ||
| CF | the same width and height; none looks more well-traveled than any | ||
| CF | other. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "n" | ||
| CF | Mystical Cavern | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a vast, mystical cavern. Stalactites shimmer in | ||
| CF | the pale green lamplight, and brightly-colored beds of moss catch your | ||
| CF | eye. Pale glowing mists swirl at your feet. Shadows seem to leap from | ||
| CF | dark crevices in the corner, and breezes, some cold, some hot, nip at | ||
| CF | your cheeks. Magic seems to flow from the very rocks, tingling your | ||
| CF | toes. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Tunnels run north and south, and a narrow crawl climbs up to the | ||
| CF | east. At the west end of the cavern is a freshly whitewashed gazebo. | ||

| CF | the gods of ancient Ul. Patterned mosaics cover the floor, and the | ||

| CF | the wall, revealing a very narrow tunnel to the east. Attached to the | ||

| CF | featureless. A passage runs back to the west. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "e" | ||
| CF | You squeeze through the narrow tunnel, and find yourself - | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Mine Shaft | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a rough-hewn cave at the top of a long-forgotten | ||
| CF | mine shaft. A thick vein of gold ore runs diagonally across the east | ||
| CF | wall, glowing in the pale green lamplight. A narrow squeeze runs west, | ||
| CF | but you're not going to get through there if you're carrying a lot. To | ||
| CF | the south, the deep mine shaft runs down. Mudslides and rockfalls have | ||
| CF | taken their toll, and the shaft is slippery and cluttered, but still | ||
| CF | negotiable. Still, I doubt if you could climb back up. A wider, | ||
| CF | straight passage runs north. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW asks, "I think we need a pickaxe here?" | |
| Knight_Otu says, "North were the dagger-throwing dwarves." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "Yeah." | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x vein" | ||
| CF | The vein runs diagonally through the wall, and has obviously been | ||
| CF | mined. Still, an industrious person could probably get a few chunks of | ||
| CF | gold out. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | Knight_Otu says, "We could get their dagger and hope the wound they strike isn't as bad as we thought it might be." | |
| DavidW says, "> chisel vein with manly jaw" | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x jaw" | ||
| CF | I don't know the word "jaw". | ||
| CF | | ||

| CF | Mines of Dioria | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a damp, cluttered cave. Twisting, tiny tunnels | ||
| CF | run off in all directions, but (thankfully) the only one you're big | ||
| CF | enough to fit through is back to the south. You've obviously stumbled | ||
| CF | into the legendary mines of the Dwarvish Lord Dioria, a brave but | ||
| CF | rather odious king who used to sell gems and gold to the ancient Ulians | ||
| CF | - you can recognize clumsy dwarvish mining when you see it. | ||
| CF | Thankfully, all the legends suggest that the dwarves are long-dead. | ||
| CF | Jumbled rocks litter the floor, and it's rather hard to walk around. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x rocks" | ||
| CF | The rocks are just cave litter, nothing too interesting. Suddenly, a | ||
| CF | dwarf runs out of one of the passages and tosses a rusty knife at you! | ||
| CF | It scratches your arm and clatters against the wall. "Curses!" the | ||
| CF | dwarf shrieks. Before you can react, he dives back into one of the | ||
| CF | narrow tunnels. | ||

| CF | You're standing in a damp, cluttered cave. Twisting, tiny tunnels | ||
| CF | run off in all directions, but (thankfully) the only one you're big | ||
| CF | enough to fit through is back to the south. You've obviously stumbled | ||
| CF | into the legendary mines of the Dwarvish Lord Dioria, a brave but | ||
| CF | rather odious king who used to sell gems and gold to the ancient Ulians | ||
| CF | - you can recognize clumsy dwarvish mining when you see it. | ||
| CF | Thankfully, all the legends suggest that the dwarves are long-dead. | ||
| CF | Jumbled rocks litter the floor, and it's rather hard to walk around. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a rusty knife here. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "get knife" | ||
| CF | You reach for the rusty knife, but, like all dwarf-made goods, it | ||
| CF | vanishes in a puff of oily black smoke when a human touches it. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW says, "bah" | |
| Knight_Otu says, "I guess that answers that." | ||
| DavidW says, "yeah" | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x rocks" | ||
| CF | The rocks are just cave litter, nothing too interesting. A dwarf rolls | ||
| CF | out of one of the passages, and tosses a shiny knife at you. You're | ||
| CF | ready this time, and dodge his throw. The knife just misses your ear, | ||
| CF | and lands on the ground with a curious thump. "Phooey!" the dwarf | ||
| CF | cries, and dives into one of the tiny tunnels. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x knife" | ||
| CF | The knife's blade appears to be made from a particularly shiny sort of | ||
| CF | rubber. Tiny letters on the handle read "Acme Slysor-Dysor Ghinzoo | ||
| CF | Nyfe." [20] | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "get it" | ||
| CF | Taken. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "note 20" | ||
| CF | [20]: Apologies to those guys that make the real ones. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW asks, "There's more than one knife?" | |
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "z" | ||
| CF | Time passes... | ||
| CF | A dwarf pokes his head out of a tunnel in the ceiling and tosses a | ||
| CF | pillow at you. It hits you square in the face, and falls to the | ||
| CF | ground. You're shaken up, but still standing. "Humbug!" the dwarf | ||
| CF | squeals. You hear him scampering away up the tunnel. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW says, "A pillow." | |
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x pillow" | ||
| CF | The pillow is about as hard as a brick. Tiny letters on one side read | ||
| CF | "Acme Soopur-Sopht Downee Pillough." | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "get it" | ||
| CF | Taken. | ||
| CF | | ||

| CF | A low voice whispers, "Haven't we got anything else to throw at him?" | ||

| Knight_Otu says, "Hm." | ||

| CF | Time passes... | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||

| CF | Time passes... | ||
| CF | Without warning, a dwarf pops up from a tunnel in the floor. He's | ||
| CF | carrying a pickaxe, which he swings at your head. You duck and leap | ||
| CF | back, surprised. With a stream of nasty curses, the dwarf hurls the | ||
| CF | pickaxe at you and dives back into the tunnel. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | *** Your score has just gone up. *** | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW says, "oh, this is humourous" | |
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "get pickaxe" | ||
| CF | Taken. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW says, "And yay, pickaxe!" | |
| Knight_Otu says, "Well then." | ||
| DavidW says, "We didn't need the smith for that after all." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "Yeah." | ||
| DavidW asks, "It should help with the vein. Maybe the coffin?" | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "s" | ||
| CF | Mine Shaft | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a rough-hewn cave at the top of a long-forgotten | ||
| CF | mine shaft. A thick vein of gold ore runs diagonally across the east | ||
| CF | wall, glowing in the pale green lamplight. A narrow squeeze runs west, | ||
| CF | but you're not going to get through there if you're carrying a lot. To | ||
| CF | the south, the deep mine shaft runs down. Mudslides and rockfalls have | ||
| CF | taken their toll, and the shaft is slippery and cluttered, but still | ||
| CF | negotiable. Still, I doubt if you could climb back up. A wider, | ||
| CF | straight passage runs north. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "dig vein with pickaxe" | ||
| CF | I don't know how to dig in the vein of gold. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "mine vein with pickaxe" | ||
| CF | I don't know the word "mine". | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "hit vein with pickaxe" | ||
| CF | The pickaxe bites deep into the vein. A loose chunk of gold goes | ||
| CF | flying, and lands at your feet. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | *** Your score has just gone up. *** | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're in a small, square chamber with a low ceiling. In the center | ||
| CF | of the room is a rusty oven. It appears to have been pulled away from | ||
| CF | the wall, revealing a very narrow tunnel to the east. Attached to the | ||
| CF | northern wall is a long wooden shelf. Otherwise, the room is quite | ||

| CF | | ||

| CF | the gods of ancient Ul. Patterned mosaics cover the floor, and the | ||
| CF | black walls are streaked with swirls of white marble. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | A simple, featureless altar made from dark gray granite is built | ||
| CF | into the northern wall. Above the altar, some writing has been carved | ||
| CF | into the black stones. Identical passages run south, east, and west. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a small cardboard box and a cookbook here. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | There's an old monk here, seated on the altar. He looks like he | ||
| CF | hasn't slept or eaten in days, and appears to be very distressed. He | ||

| CF | Mystical Cavern | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a vast, mystical cavern. Stalactites shimmer in | ||
| CF | the pale green lamplight, and brightly-colored beds of moss catch your | ||
| CF | eye. Pale glowing mists swirl at your feet. Shadows seem to leap from | ||
| CF | dark crevices in the corner, and breezes, some cold, some hot, nip at | ||
| CF | your cheeks. Magic seems to flow from the very rocks, tingling your | ||
| CF | toes. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Tunnels run north and south, and a narrow crawl climbs up to the | ||
| CF | east. At the west end of the cavern is a freshly whitewashed gazebo. | ||

| CF | You see an oar, a brown book, a spade, and a trowel here. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x pocket" | ||
| CF | The pocket of the robe is quite tattered, and hanging by just a few | ||
| CF | threads. In the pocket you see a brass lamp (providing light), a | ||
| CF | bronze ring (being worn), a thin wand, a pair of erasers, a handful of | ||
| CF | radberries, a jade figurine, a black stone, a sword, a long rope, and a | ||

| CF | Altar Chamber | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing in a chamber cut from dark obsidian. Somehow, you | ||
| CF | feel at peace here. Obviously, this is some kind of temple to one of | ||
| CF | the gods of ancient Ul. Patterned mosaics cover the floor, and the | ||
| CF | black walls are streaked with swirls of white marble. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | A simple, featureless altar made from dark gray granite is built | ||
| CF | into the northern wall. Above the altar, some writing has been carved | ||
| CF | into the black stones. Identical passages run south, east, and west. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a cookbook here. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | There's an old monk here, seated on the altar. He looks like he | ||
| CF | hasn't slept or eaten in days, and appears to be very distressed. He | ||
| CF | glances up as you enter. "Welcome, Valley Warrior." | ||

| CF | You're standing in a vast, mystical cavern. Stalactites shimmer in | ||

| CF | dark crevices in the corner, and breezes, some cold, some hot, nip at | ||
| CF | your cheeks. Magic seems to flow from the very rocks, tingling your | ||
| CF | toes. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Tunnels run north and south, and a narrow crawl climbs up to the | ||
| CF | east. At the west end of the cavern is a freshly whitewashed gazebo. | ||

| CF | eye. Pale glowing mists swirl at your feet. Shadows seem to leap from | ||
| CF | dark crevices in the corner, and breezes, some cold, some hot, nip at | ||
| CF | your cheeks. Magic seems to flow from the very rocks, tingling your | ||
| CF | toes. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Tunnels run north and south, and a narrow crawl climbs up to the | ||
| CF | east. At the west end of the cavern is a freshly whitewashed gazebo. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a trowel, a pillow, a thin wand, a pair of erasers, a sword, | ||

| CF | Altar Chamber | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing in a chamber cut from dark obsidian. Somehow, you | ||
| CF | feel at peace here. Obviously, this is some kind of temple to one of | ||
| CF | the gods of ancient Ul. Patterned mosaics cover the floor, and the | ||
| CF | black walls are streaked with swirls of white marble. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | A simple, featureless altar made from dark gray granite is built | ||
| CF | into the northern wall. Above the altar, some writing has been carved | ||
| CF | into the black stones. Identical passages run south, east, and west. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a cookbook here. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | There's an old monk here, seated on the altar. He looks like he | ||
| CF | hasn't slept or eaten in days, and appears to be very distressed. He | ||
| CF | glances up as you enter. "Welcome, Valley Warrior." | ||
| CF | | ||

| CF | Mystical Cavern | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a vast, mystical cavern. Stalactites shimmer in | ||
| CF | the pale green lamplight, and brightly-colored beds of moss catch your | ||
| CF | eye. Pale glowing mists swirl at your feet. Shadows seem to leap from | ||
| CF | dark crevices in the corner, and breezes, some cold, some hot, nip at | ||
| CF | your cheeks. Magic seems to flow from the very rocks, tingling your | ||
| CF | toes. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Tunnels run north and south, and a narrow crawl climbs up to the | ||
| CF | east. At the west end of the cavern is a freshly whitewashed gazebo. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a trowel, a pillow, a thin wand, a pair of erasers, a shiny | ||
| CF | knife, a wine bottle, a jade figurine, a long rope, an oar, a small | ||

| CF | hang over your head. Luckily, enclosed spaces don't bother you - only | ||
| CF | heights do. Passages run north, east, and southwest. All are about | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a circular room at the edge of a deep pit. A | ||

| CF | stomach churn; the pit's quite deep, and your fear of heights is as | ||
| CF | strong as ever. [7] An iron hook is embedded in one of the walls. | ||
| CF | The only exit from the room is a passage back through the rock to the | ||
| CF | west. Below, in the pit, you can see what appears to be a baby dragon. | ||
| CF | It looks up at you briefly, then trips over its tail and falls down | ||
| CF | with a loud squeak. | ||

| CF | there, poking through cracks in the rocky mountain soil. A trail | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on the bank of a rushing mountain river. The bank | ||
| CF | is grassy and slopes gently down to the water. The swift-moving river | ||
| CF | babbles gentle murmurings, and a sweet-smelling breeze blows from the | ||
| CF | north. It's peaceful here, and quite relaxing. A trail leads back up | ||
| CF | into the Beeg'ashell Mountains to the southwest. The river is to the | ||
| CF | north, and flows down from the west. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | There's a beautiful woman seated at the water's edge - could it be | ||
| CF | the fair Amanda? But no - Amanda is blond, while this woman's hair is | ||
| CF | auburn. Her face is narrower, and her eyes are quite different. She | ||

| CF | but of course, you can't get there from here. If only you had an Acme | ||
| CF | Brij Kreeaytor! The only obvious exit is the trail back to the east; | ||

| CF | Musty Tomb | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in an ancient chamber inside the burial mound. High | ||
| CF | above your head, the muddy hole you dug beckons you - but there's no | ||
| CF | way to reach it. The walls of the chamber are hard-packed sod, but the | ||
| CF | floor is solid stone, good Unnkulian granite. A massive stone coffin | ||
| CF | stands in the very center of the room. The only exit from the chamber | ||
| CF | is a narrow passage sloping down to the west, vanishing into darkness. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a trampoline here. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "jump on trampoline" | ||
| CF | You jump on the trampoline and fly straight up through the hole | ||
| CF | overhead, landing on the soft grass next to the hole on top of the | ||
| CF | burial mound. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | On Top of the Burial Mound | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on top of the burial mound, perhaps thirty feet | ||
| CF | above the damp, swampy ground below. To the south, you can just make | ||
| CF | out Lake Draounheer through the mist, and to the southeast, the | ||
| CF | clifftop and the lighthouse. The only safe path off the mound is to | ||
| CF | the west. There's little of interest up here. | ||

| CF | At the Burial Mound | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing at the end of a path through the Damsogee Swamp. | ||
| CF | For miles in almost all directions, the treacherous bogs and mires | ||
| CF | stretch. Sinister squishing sounds echo across the sodden moors, and | ||
| CF | sometimes, faintly, you can hear the howl of the wind - or is it a | ||
| CF | wolf? To the east is a low hill, flattened on its top; it's one of the | ||
| CF | old burial mounds of the early Ulian tribesmen. You could climb the | ||
| CF | hill to the east, or follow the path back to the south; all other | ||
| CF | directions are much too dangerous. Fog hangs over every stunted shrub | ||
| CF | here, and the air smells of death and decay. | ||

| CF | Stoll Bridge | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing just south of a rickety wooden bridge that crosses a | ||
| CF | particularly swampy bit of land. The bridge is the only way to | ||
| CF | continue north; the land around is much too dangerous for you to | ||
| CF | wander. Beyond the bridge, to the north, you can see what looks like a | ||
| CF | low hill. The only other path leads south, back toward Lake | ||
| CF | Draounheer. | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x bridge" | ||
| CF | The bridge is made of wood, and looks quite rickety. Still, it's | ||
| CF | probably the only safe way to cross this section of the swamp; the land | ||
| CF | is so sodden and sandy that you could be sucked under if you strayed | ||
| CF | from the path. | ||

| CF | Inside Inn | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in the main room of the Golden Dragon Inn. The room | ||
| CF | is warm and welcoming after the brisk fall breezes, though the place is | ||
| CF | mostly deserted. The barkeep is nowhere to be found, and there's no | ||
| CF | one seated at the bar. Still, the floor, bar, and tables look clean, | ||
| CF | and it's good to get out of the cold. The exit is to the west, and a | ||
| CF | narrow passage runs northeast. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The only customer is a glum little man sitting alone at a table. He | ||
| CF | looks like one of those damned Acme salesmen the King's been trying to | ||

| CF | Forest Path | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're walking along a well-travelled forest path that winds through | ||
| CF | the peaceful woods. Birds chirp and sing above you, and the | ||
| CF | temperature is brisk but pleasant. Like many of the children of the | ||
| CF | Valley, you played in these woods as a child, scampering through the | ||
| CF | woods, looking for animal tracks, and climbing trees. The path bends | ||
| CF | here, running south and northeast. The trees also thin out to the | ||
| CF | west, and the land slopes up in that direction. There's a radberry | ||
| CF | bush here, but it's been picked clean. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The six thugs that make up the Valley Patrol are here, leaning on | ||
| CF | their pikes. They appear to be loafing on the job. | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing outside the Valley King's forest retreat. It's a | ||
| CF | simple hut where His Regalness sheds the trappings of modern | ||
| CF | civilization and gets back to nature. You don't entirely understand | ||
| CF | his thinking; you're a warrior, not a philosopher. But he is, after | ||
| CF | all, the king. Paths wind through the woods to the north, west, and | ||
| CF | northeast. The hut is to the south. Through the trees to the west, | ||
| CF | you can see sunlight glinting off the waters of Lake Draounheer. | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on the eastern shore of Lake Draounheer. Across the | ||
| CF | sparkling blue waters, you can see the snow-covered caps of the | ||
| CF | Beeg'ashell Mountains, deep in the heart of evil Unnkulia. But here, | ||
| CF | on this side of the lake, you could truly find peace. Gentle waves lap | ||
| CF | at the shore, and reeds bend gracefully in the brisk fall breezes. To | ||
| CF | the east, a path leads back into the forest. North of here, the land | ||
| CF | slopes up sharply, and the path continues. You could also go southwest, | ||
| CF | along the shore of the lake - further along, the grassy lakeshore turns | ||
| CF | into a sandy beach. | ||

| CF | On the Lake | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're bobbing on the waters of Lake Draounheer in a rickety | ||
| CF | rowboat. The waters are clear, but you can't see the bottom of the | ||
| CF | lake - it's quite deep. You're forced to paddle against a gentle | ||
| CF | southerly current, but it's not hard to keep the boat stationary. | ||
| CF | South of here, the lake water is channeled through a narrow fissure in | ||
| CF | Dawg Rock, and becomes a rushing whitewater river. To the east and | ||

| CF | You glug back the wine. It's sweet and quite tasty. It makes you | ||
| CF | rather sleepy - in fact, you're passing out. You curl up for a quick | ||

| CF | | ||

| CF | strong as ever. [7] An iron hook is embedded in one of the walls. | ||
| CF | The only exit from the room is a passage back through the rock to the | ||
| CF | west. Below, in the pit, you can see what appears to be a baby dragon. | ||
| CF | It looks up at you briefly, then trips over its tail and falls down | ||

| CF | You miss the dragon with the wine bottle. It lands beside the beast in | ||
| CF | the pit. The dragon gives it a sniff, then takes a tentative bite. | ||
| CF | You watch with growing horror as the baby dragon consumes the entire | ||
| CF | object. | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x dragon" | ||
| CF | The baby dragon is not exactly small - it probably weighs more than you | ||
| CF | do. But it is quite cute. As you watch, it trips over its own feet | ||
| CF | and goes flying in a great tangle of claws and tail. [16] | ||
| CF | | ||

| CF | On the Lake | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're bobbing on the waters of Lake Draounheer in a rickety | ||
| CF | rowboat. The waters are clear, but you can't see the bottom of the | ||
| CF | lake - it's quite deep. You're forced to paddle against a gentle | ||
| CF | southerly current, but it's not hard to keep the boat stationary. | ||
| CF | South of here, the lake water is channeled through a narrow fissure in | ||
| CF | Dawg Rock, and becomes a rushing whitewater river. To the east and | ||
| CF | west are sandy beaches, and north of here is a swampy shore. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a rowboat here. | ||

| CF | North Shore | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're on the north shore of Lake Draounheer, at the southern edge | ||
| CF | of the infamous Damsogee Swamp. This is unexplored territory now; | ||
| CF | you've left the safety of the Forest of Radeekal for dangerous and | ||
| CF | uncharted wilderness. Perhaps a wiser man would turn back now - but | ||
| CF | you are a Valley Warrior, and know no fear. Mist swirls at the water's | ||
| CF | edge, and reeds bend in the cold, damp breeze. Two paths lead into the | ||
| CF | swamp, one due north, the other northwest. The path is surprisingly | ||
| CF | well-traveled; small footprints lead north. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a small leather pouch, a long rope, a wine bottle, a small | ||
| CF | cardboard box, a brown book, and a rowboat here. | ||

| CF | Stoll Bridge | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing just south of a rickety wooden bridge that crosses a | ||
| CF | particularly swampy bit of land. The bridge is the only way to | ||
| CF | continue north; the land around is much too dangerous for you to | ||
| CF | wander. Beyond the bridge, to the north, you can see what looks like a | ||
| CF | low hill. The only other path leads south, back toward Lake | ||
| CF | Draounheer. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "n" | ||
| CF | At the Burial Mound | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing at the end of a path through the Damsogee Swamp. | ||
| CF | For miles in almost all directions, the treacherous bogs and mires | ||
| CF | stretch. Sinister squishing sounds echo across the sodden moors, and | ||
| CF | sometimes, faintly, you can hear the howl of the wind - or is it a | ||
| CF | wolf? To the east is a low hill, flattened on its top; it's one of the | ||
| CF | old burial mounds of the early Ulian tribesmen. You could climb the | ||
| CF | hill to the east, or follow the path back to the south; all other | ||
| CF | directions are much too dangerous. Fog hangs over every stunted shrub | ||
| CF | here, and the air smells of death and decay. | ||

| CF | On Top of the Burial Mound | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on top of the burial mound, perhaps thirty feet | ||
| CF | above the damp, swampy ground below. To the south, you can just make | ||
| CF | out Lake Draounheer through the mist, and to the southeast, the | ||
| CF | clifftop and the lighthouse. The only safe path off the mound is to | ||
| CF | the west. There's little of interest up here. | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "d" | ||
| CF | You scramble down into the dark hole - | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Musty Tomb | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in an ancient chamber inside the burial mound. High | ||
| CF | above your head, the muddy hole you dug beckons you - but there's no | ||
| CF | way to reach it. The walls of the chamber are hard-packed sod, but the | ||
| CF | floor is solid stone, good Unnkulian granite. A massive stone coffin | ||
| CF | stands in the very center of the room. The only exit from the chamber | ||
| CF | is a narrow passage sloping down to the west, vanishing into darkness. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a trampoline here. | ||

| CF | Mystical Cavern | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a vast, mystical cavern. Stalactites shimmer in | ||
| CF | the pale green lamplight, and brightly-colored beds of moss catch your | ||
| CF | eye. Pale glowing mists swirl at your feet. Shadows seem to leap from | ||
| CF | dark crevices in the corner, and breezes, some cold, some hot, nip at | ||
| CF | your cheeks. Magic seems to flow from the very rocks, tingling your | ||
| CF | toes. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Tunnels run north and south, and a narrow crawl climbs up to the | ||
| CF | east. At the west end of the cavern is a freshly whitewashed gazebo. | ||

| CF | Tunnel Fork | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing at a fork in a low tunnel cut through the deep | ||
| CF | bedrock of the land. The walls are close around you, and tons of rock | ||
| CF | hang over your head. Luckily, enclosed spaces don't bother you - only | ||
| CF | heights do. Passages run north, east, and southwest. All are about | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a circular room at the edge of a deep pit. A | ||
| CF | ledge runs around the room, above the pit. Being here makes your | ||
| CF | stomach churn; the pit's quite deep, and your fear of heights is as | ||
| CF | strong as ever. [7] An iron hook is embedded in one of the walls. | ||
| CF | The only exit from the room is a passage back through the rock to the | ||
| CF | west. Below, in the pit, you can see what appears to be a baby dragon. | ||

| CF | underfoot, and you're having some difficulty maintaining your balance. | ||

| CF | Mystical Cavern | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a vast, mystical cavern. Stalactites shimmer in | ||
| CF | the pale green lamplight, and brightly-colored beds of moss catch your | ||
| CF | eye. Pale glowing mists swirl at your feet. Shadows seem to leap from | ||
| CF | dark crevices in the corner, and breezes, some cold, some hot, nip at | ||
| CF | your cheeks. Magic seems to flow from the very rocks, tingling your | ||
| CF | toes. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Tunnels run north and south, and a narrow crawl climbs up to the | ||
| CF | east. At the west end of the cavern is a freshly whitewashed gazebo. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a sword and a shiny knife here. | ||

| CF | hang over your head. Luckily, enclosed spaces don't bother you - only | ||
| CF | heights do. Passages run north, east, and southwest. All are about | ||

| CF | glass - and through it, you can see water and what must be the muddy | ||
| CF | bottom of Lake Draounheer! Somehow, you've gotten around to the | ||
| CF | western side of the lake. Perhaps if you strain your eyes, you might | ||
| CF | make out the King's Lake View room on the other side - but no; the lake | ||
| CF | is too wide, and the waters too muddy. Identical passages run | ||

| CF | Forge | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in what must be an ancient forge. Dark wooden beams | ||
| CF | support a sagging stone roof, and the floor is stained with droplets of | ||
| CF | metal. A giant pair of bellows, attached to a huge crucible, stands in | ||
| CF | the very center of the room. To one side is a huge grindstone. The | ||
| CF | only exit is to the northeast. | ||

| CF | You gasp. The Lady Amanda! The King's betrothed! Her tinkling | ||
| CF | laugh made the dead caverns come alive, and she is beloved of all the | ||
| CF | King's subjects! If she's vanished - | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You shudder, not wanting to finish the thought. Without the fair | ||
| CF | Amanda's influence, your master will not have the strength to go on - | ||
| CF | the strength to ward off the Unnkulian menace. She must be found! | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The King slips something into your hand. "Take this," he whispers. | ||
| CF | "My seal shall protect you. Go with haste! I cannot bear to lose my | ||
| CF | lady!" | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You grasp your liege lord's shoulder. "Fear not, sire," you | ||
| CF | whisper. "She shall be found." You climb up out of the grate and | ||
| CF | blink in the bright sunshine. Behind you, the grate slams shut. You | ||
| CF | flex, muscles ripping beneath your shirt. It is a good day for a quest | ||
| CF | - and it may involve killing Unnkulians! | ||

| CF | Peaceful Glade | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing in a peaceful glade in the Forest of Radeekal. The | ||
| CF | fall colors are glorious this time of year; the trees are ablaze with | ||
| CF | red, orange, and yellow. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You blink in the bright sunlight; it's been over a year since you | ||
| CF | last left the underground realm of His Majesticalness. It's good to be | ||
| CF | outside and breathe fresh air again. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Through the trees, you catch glimpses of cheerful woodland | ||
| CF | creatures, frolicking and gathering nuts and berries for the coming | ||
| CF | winter. If only you could stay here forever - but there's much to be | ||
| CF | done. Set in the forest floor is the iron grate leading back down to | ||
| CF | the realm of the Valley King. It's closed and locked. [2] A | ||
| CF | well-traveled path leads southwest, and a narrower track, nearly | ||
| CF | overgrown, leads due south. | ||

| CF | Winding Path | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're walking on a winding path that wends its way through a | ||
| CF | particularly thick part of the forest. The trees bend low overhead, | ||
| CF | and the sunlight filtering down through the colorful leaves is dim at | ||
| CF | best. The path runs north and east. To the south is a mound of | ||
| CF | moss-covered rocks and what looks like the entrance to a small grotto | ||
| CF | or cave. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "s" | ||
| CF | Mossy Grotto | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a mossy cave carved from the living rock. A wide | ||
| CF | exit leads back out into the sun-dappled forest to the north. The | ||
| CF | floor and walls are solid rock, covered with lichens and fungi. It's | ||
| CF | quite peaceful here. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a spray can here. | ||

| CF | Forgotten Shrine | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The path ends in a small, dark clearing. The tree branches hang | ||
| CF | overhead, the thick canopy of leaves blocking almost all the light. | ||
| CF | The ground here is muddy and soft; your feet sink in a few inches. A | ||
| CF | granite shrine stands in the very center of the clearing. Curled | ||
| CF | around the base of the shrine is a large spotted snake, a huge monster | ||
| CF | at least twelve feet long. Leaning up against the shrine is a wooden | ||
| CF | oar. The snake is wrapped around it protectively. The only path leads | ||
| CF | back to the west. | ||
| CF | | ||

| CF | Okay, you're now wearing the bronze ring. | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "get oar" | ||
| CF | As you reach for the oar, the snake spots the ring on your finger. | ||
| CF | Since it's a loyal servant of the Valley King, it lets you have the | ||
| CF | paddle - though it still eyes you balefully. | ||

| CF | Outside Retreat | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing outside the Valley King's forest retreat. It's a | ||
| CF | simple hut where His Regalness sheds the trappings of modern | ||
| CF | civilization and gets back to nature. You don't entirely understand | ||
| CF | his thinking; you're a warrior, not a philosopher. But he is, after | ||
| CF | all, the king. Paths wind through the woods to the north, west, and | ||
| CF | northeast. The hut is to the south. Through the trees to the west, | ||
| CF | you can see sunlight glinting off the waters of Lake Draounheer. | ||

| CF | Forest Path | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're walking along a well-travelled forest path that winds through | ||
| CF | the peaceful woods. Birds chirp and sing above you, and the | ||
| CF | temperature is brisk but pleasant. Like many of the children of the | ||
| CF | Valley, you played in these woods as a child, scampering through the | ||
| CF | woods, looking for animal tracks, and climbing trees. The path bends | ||
| CF | here, running south and northeast. The trees also thin out to the | ||
| CF | west, and the land slopes up in that direction. There's a radberry | ||
| CF | bush here. Its berries are plump and ripe, and they hang from the bush | ||
| CF | in bountiful clumps. | ||
| CF | | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "w" | ||
| CF | Cliff Top | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing at the top of a rocky cliff, overlooking Lake | ||
| CF | Draounheer to the west. It's rather frightening, for you suffer from | ||
| CF | extreme vertigo - in fact, you're feeling a little shaky. [3] To the | ||
| CF | east, a path runs downhill back into the forest, and another path | ||
| CF | leading south slopes down to the lake. You could follow the cliff | ||
| CF | northeast as well; the land slopes up in that direction, but at least | ||
| CF | it's further away from the edge of the cliff. Across the lake are the | ||
| CF | sinister Beegas'hell Mountains, the heart of the Unnkulian menace that | ||
| CF | no doubt your liege shall soon deal with. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The six thugs that make up the Valley Patrol are here, leaning on | ||
| CF | their pikes. They appear to be loafing on the job. "Who're you?" one | ||
| CF | of them grunts, squinting suspiciously. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The leader of the Valley Patrol gives you a shove. "What's yer | ||
| CF | bidness here, chum?" | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "show ring to patrol" | ||
| CF | "Oooh!" the Patrol says with one voice. All eyes are fastened on your | ||
| CF | ring. "Sorry, chum," the leader says, patting you on the back. | ||
| CF | "Didn't know you had the Big Guy's seal. Go on wit' what you wuz | ||
| CF | doing." | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | *** Your score has just gone up. *** | ||

| CF | The Valley Patrol leader grins at you. He's missing at least four | ||
| CF | front teeth. "Hiya, chum." | ||
| CF | | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "n" | ||
| CF | You can't go that way. | ||

| CF | Scenic View | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on the highest plateau on this side of the lake. | ||
| CF | Below, to the south, the forest stretches out, a vast expanse of | ||
| CF | impenetrable green foliage. To the southwest and west, you can see the | ||
| CF | waters of Lake Draounheer, sparkling in the bright sunshine, while | ||
| CF | across the lake are the snow-capped peaks of the Beegas'hell mountains. | ||
| CF | North of the lake is the vast unknown reaches of the Damsogee Swamp, | ||
| CF | unexplored by mortal man and said to be home to ferocious beasts and | ||
| CF | fearsome monsters. To the north stands a newly-built lighthouse, the | ||
| CF | latest public work ordered by the Valley King, its stone walls | ||
| CF | impressive and firm. The entrance to the lighthouse stands open to the | ||
| CF | north. The only other safe path down from the plateau leads back | ||
| CF | toward the cliff to the southwest. | ||
| CF | | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "n" | ||
| CF | Lighthouse Bottom | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on the bottom floor of the newly-constructed | ||
| CF | lighthouse of the Valley King. Not being one to waste building-space, | ||
| CF | His Grandiosity has turned this lower floor into the mint for valmids, | ||
| CF | the coin of the realm. A huge coin press occupies the center of the | ||
| CF | room. Since the workers work at night, minding both the press and the | ||
| CF | lighthouse, there's no one here right now. A stone staircase leads up, | ||
| CF | winding around the outside of the lighthouse to the top floor. The | ||
| CF | only other exit is south, back out of the lighthouse. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "u" | ||
| CF | Lighthouse Top | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on the top floor of the lighthouse. A brisk fall | ||
| CF | breeze whips up from below, chilling you to the bone. From here, | ||
| CF | there's quite a view. Southward, the forest stretches out before you, | ||
| CF | a bright blaze of colors. Across the lake, to the west, are the | ||
| CF | sinister Beegas'hell Mountains. To the north and west, you can just | ||
| CF | make out the mist-covered Damsogee Swamp, a sinister, uncharted land. | ||
| CF | The lighthouse lamp sits in the center of the round floor, on top of a | ||
| CF | brick base. It's currently off. The only exit is back down. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a spade and a trowel here. | ||
| CF | | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x base" | ||
| CF | The brick base looks like a recent piece of work; the cement hasn't | ||
| CF | quite set yet. One of the bricks is slightly loose. You could | ||
| CF | probably take it out. | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "get brick" | ||
| CF | You wiggle the brick around a bit and pull it from the base. A piece | ||
| CF | of paper flutters from the hole, landing on the ground. You reach for | ||
| CF | it, but just as your fingertips touch it, a huge bird swoops down out | ||
| CF | of nowhere, chirping angrily, and snatches the paper from your grasp. | ||
| CF | Before you can react, the bird is gone, flying swiftly away from the | ||
| CF | lighthouse. | ||

| CF | balance. With effort, you pry your eyelids open and look around you. | ||
| CF | To the west, through the branches, you can see the sandy beaches of | ||

| CF | up out of the bog and lie panting on the edge of the quicksand. I | ||
| CF | wouldn't stay here too long if I were you; the ground is quite | ||
| CF | dangerous. A rusty lamp appears to have hooked around your foot. You | ||

| CF | low-lying fog hugs the ground like a burial shroud. Even the bright | ||
| CF | afternoon sun is having trouble burning off the thick mist. It's quite | ||

| CF | Lake View | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing in a square chamber carved from the rock. The | ||
| CF | eastern wall of the chamber is made from what appears to be transparent | ||
| CF | glass - and through it, you can see water and what must be the muddy | ||
| CF | bottom of Lake Draounheer! Somehow, you've gotten around to the | ||
| CF | western side of the lake. Perhaps if you strain your eyes, you might | ||
| CF | make out the King's Lake View room on the other side - but no; the lake | ||
| CF | is too wide, and the waters too muddy. Identical passages run | ||
| CF | northeast, northwest, west, and south. To the north is a thick steel | ||
| CF | door, which is closed. A sign hangs just above the glass wall. | ||

| CF | Tunnel Fork | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing at a fork in a low tunnel cut through the deep | ||
| CF | bedrock of the land. The walls are close around you, and tons of rock | ||
| CF | hang over your head. Luckily, enclosed spaces don't bother you - only | ||
| CF | heights do. Passages run north, east, and southwest. All are about | ||
| CF | the same width and height; none looks more well-traveled than any | ||
| CF | other. | ||

| CF | Mystical Cavern | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a vast, mystical cavern. Stalactites shimmer in | ||
| CF | the pale green lamplight, and brightly-colored beds of moss catch your | ||
| CF | eye. Pale glowing mists swirl at your feet. Shadows seem to leap from | ||
| CF | dark crevices in the corner, and breezes, some cold, some hot, nip at | ||
| CF | your cheeks. Magic seems to flow from the very rocks, tingling your | ||
| CF | toes. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Tunnels run north and south, and a narrow crawl climbs up to the | ||
| CF | east. At the west end of the cavern is a freshly whitewashed gazebo. | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in the whitewashed gazebo in the mystical cavern. | ||
| CF | It's quite peaceful here; the moss-covered cavern floor outside muffles | ||
| CF | most sounds. Faint flowery smells reach your nostrils, and you feel | ||
| CF | quite relaxed. Truly, there is an almost magical tranquillity here. | ||
| CF | High above you, you can see the steeple bell. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | A long rope is attached to the bell, the other end dangling just | ||
| CF | above the floor. You can only go back to the east from here. | ||

| CF | You jump on the trampoline and leap into the air. For some reason, you | ||
| CF | can really get some altitude here inside the gazebo. You come down and | ||
| CF | bounce again, higher and higher. The bell's almost in reach; in fact, | ||
| CF | you can just about grab the edge - suddenly, you find yourself - | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Hanging on the Edge of the Bell | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're hanging on the edge of the bell, a good fifteen feet above | ||
| CF | the gazebo floor. The height is making you quite queasy, and the | ||
| CF | gentle rocking of the bell isn't helping you any. You can't seem to | ||
| CF | let go; you're having trouble prying your fingers from the bell's shiny | ||
| CF | surface. The only exit is (gulp) down. A long rope is tied to the | ||
| CF | edge of the bell, right near your fingers. It hangs down to the floor | ||
| CF | below. | ||

| CF | ground below. | ||

| CF | floor is solid stone, good Unnkulian granite. A massive stone coffin | ||
| CF | stands in the very center of the room. The only exit from the chamber | ||

| CF | wall, glowing in the pale green lamplight. A narrow squeeze runs west, | ||
| CF | but you're not going to get through there if you're carrying a lot. To | ||
| CF | the south, the deep mine shaft runs down. Mudslides and rockfalls have | ||

| CF | enough to fit through is back to the south. You've obviously stumbled | ||
| CF | into the legendary mines of the Dwarvish Lord Dioria, a brave but | ||
| CF | rather odious king who used to sell gems and gold to the ancient Ulians | ||
| CF | - you can recognize clumsy dwarvish mining when you see it. | ||

| CF | Lake Draounheer's western shore, to the southeast; the walls of what | ||
| CF | appear to be some sort of monastery; and, on top of the highest of the | ||
| CF | mountains, a giant boulder, perched quite precariously. Unfortunately | ||
| CF | (or perhaps thankfully) the terrain is far too rugged for you to get | ||
| CF | there from here. The only safe path is to the north. There's a | ||
| CF | spreading chestnut tree in the very center of the clearing. | ||

| CF | The smith wanders down the trail into the clearing. His eyes fall | ||
| CF | upon the spreading chestnut tree. "Aha!" he cries. "Just what I need | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a single brick here. The dragon slowly opens one glittering | ||

| CF | Reading Room | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | This chamber's walls are covered in tacky stained purple and green | ||
| CF | wooden panelling. It's not exactly what I would call peaceful, but | ||
| CF | there is a comfortable chair (upholstered in bright orange) and, on the | ||
| CF | western wall, a bookshelf. In some ways, the room is kind of like an | ||
| CF | evil twin of the King's library back in the Valley. The only exit is | ||
| CF | back to the east. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | A yellow paperback, a black book, and a blue book are sitting on the | ||

| CF | Lake View | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing in a square chamber carved from the rock. The | ||
| CF | eastern wall of the chamber is made from what appears to be transparent | ||
| CF | glass - and through it, you can see water and what must be the muddy | ||
| CF | bottom of Lake Draounheer! Somehow, you've gotten around to the | ||
| CF | western side of the lake. Perhaps if you strain your eyes, you might | ||
| CF | make out the King's Lake View room on the other side - but no; the lake | ||
| CF | is too wide, and the waters too muddy. Identical passages run | ||
| CF | northeast, northwest, west, and south. To the north is a thick steel | ||
| CF | door, which stands open, revealing a stone staircase leading down. | ||
| CF | Great clouds of hot steam billow up the stairs. If you were to go down | ||
| CF | there, you'd surely be scalded. A sign hangs just above the glass | ||
| CF | wall. | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing at a fork in a low tunnel cut through the deep | ||

| CF | hang over your head. Luckily, enclosed spaces don't bother you - only | ||
| CF | heights do. Passages run north, east, and southwest. All are about | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a vast, mystical cavern. Stalactites shimmer in | ||
| CF | the pale green lamplight, and brightly-colored beds of moss catch your | ||
| CF | eye. Pale glowing mists swirl at your feet. Shadows seem to leap from | ||
| CF | dark crevices in the corner, and breezes, some cold, some hot, nip at | ||
| CF | your cheeks. Magic seems to flow from the very rocks, tingling your | ||
| CF | toes. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Tunnels run north and south, and a narrow crawl climbs up to the | ||
| CF | east. At the west end of the cavern is a freshly whitewashed gazebo. | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in an ancient chamber inside the burial mound. High | ||
| CF | above your head, the muddy hole you dug beckons you - but there's no | ||
| CF | way to reach it. The walls of the chamber are hard-packed sod, but the | ||
| CF | floor is solid stone, good Unnkulian granite. A massive stone coffin | ||
| CF | stands in the very center of the room. The only exit from the chamber | ||
| CF | is a narrow passage sloping down to the west, vanishing into darkness. | ||

| CF | On Top of the Burial Mound | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on top of the burial mound, perhaps thirty feet | ||
| CF | above the damp, swampy ground below. To the south, you can just make | ||
| CF | out Lake Draounheer through the mist, and to the southeast, the | ||

| CF | stretch. Sinister squishing sounds echo across the sodden moors, and | ||
| CF | sometimes, faintly, you can hear the howl of the wind - or is it a | ||
| CF | wolf? To the east is a low hill, flattened on its top; it's one of the | ||
| CF | old burial mounds of the early Ulian tribesmen. You could climb the | ||
| CF | hill to the east, or follow the path back to the south; all other | ||
| CF | directions are much too dangerous. Fog hangs over every stunted shrub | ||

| CF | uncharted wilderness. Perhaps a wiser man would turn back now - but | ||
| CF | you are a Valley Warrior, and know no fear. Mist swirls at the water's | ||
| CF | edge, and reeds bend in the cold, damp breeze. Two paths lead into the | ||

| CF | lake - it's quite deep. You're forced to paddle against a gentle | ||
| CF | southerly current, but it's not hard to keep the boat stationary. | ||
| CF | South of here, the lake water is channeled through a narrow fissure in | ||

| CF | western side of the lake. Perhaps if you strain your eyes, you might | ||
| CF | make out the King's Lake View room on the other side - but no; the lake | ||
| CF | is too wide, and the waters too muddy. Identical passages run | ||
| CF | northeast, northwest, west, and south. To the north is a thick steel | ||
| CF | door, which stands open, revealing a stone staircase leading down. | ||

| CF | appear to be some sort of monastery; and, on top of the highest of the | ||

| CF | keep your vertigo in check, and having some success; staying a good | ||
| CF | fifteen feet back from the edge helps a lot. Across the gorge you can | ||
| CF | just make out a slender stone tower rising from a rocky mountain-top - | ||
| CF | but of course, you can't get there from here. If only you had an Acme | ||
| CF | Brij Kreeaytor! The only obvious exit is the trail back to the east; | ||

| CF | Forge | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in what must be an ancient forge. Dark wooden beams | ||
| CF | support a sagging stone roof, and the floor is stained with droplets of | ||
| CF | metal. A giant pair of bellows, attached to a huge crucible, stands in | ||
| CF | the very center of the room. To one side is a huge grindstone. The | ||
| CF | only exit is to the northeast. | ||

| CF | You're standing in a carved square chamber with an arched roof. | ||
| CF | Stairs climb up to the northwest, and bright sunlight filters down, | ||
| CF | bathing the room in a pale yellow glow. | ||

| CF | Lake View | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing in a square chamber carved from the rock. The | ||
| CF | eastern wall of the chamber is made from what appears to be transparent | ||
| CF | glass - and through it, you can see water and what must be the muddy | ||
| CF | bottom of Lake Draounheer! Somehow, you've gotten around to the | ||
| CF | western side of the lake. Perhaps if you strain your eyes, you might | ||
| CF | make out the King's Lake View room on the other side - but no; the lake | ||
| CF | is too wide, and the waters too muddy. Identical passages run | ||
| CF | northeast, northwest, west, and south. To the north is a thick steel | ||
| CF | door, which stands open, revealing a stone staircase leading down. | ||
| CF | Great clouds of hot steam billow up the stairs. If you were to go down | ||
| CF | there, you'd surely be scalded. A sign hangs just above the glass | ||
| CF | wall. | ||

| CF | Tunnel Fork | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing at a fork in a low tunnel cut through the deep | ||
| CF | bedrock of the land. The walls are close around you, and tons of rock | ||
| CF | hang over your head. Luckily, enclosed spaces don't bother you - only | ||
| CF | heights do. Passages run north, east, and southwest. All are about | ||
| CF | the same width and height; none looks more well-traveled than any | ||

| CF | dark crevices in the corner, and breezes, some cold, some hot, nip at | ||
| CF | your cheeks. Magic seems to flow from the very rocks, tingling your | ||
| CF | toes. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Tunnels run north and south, and a narrow crawl climbs up to the | ||
| CF | east. At the west end of the cavern is a freshly whitewashed gazebo. | ||

| CF | way to reach it. The walls of the chamber are hard-packed sod, but the | ||
| CF | floor is solid stone, good Unnkulian granite. A massive stone coffin | ||
| CF | stands in the very center of the room. The only exit from the chamber | ||

| CF | sometimes, faintly, you can hear the howl of the wind - or is it a | ||
| CF | wolf? To the east is a low hill, flattened on its top; it's one of the | ||
| CF | old burial mounds of the early Ulian tribesmen. You could climb the | ||
| CF | hill to the east, or follow the path back to the south; all other | ||

| CF | uncharted wilderness. Perhaps a wiser man would turn back now - but | ||
| CF | you are a Valley Warrior, and know no fear. Mist swirls at the water's | ||
| CF | edge, and reeds bend in the cold, damp breeze. Two paths lead into the | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a vast, mystical cavern. Stalactites shimmer in | ||
| CF | the pale green lamplight, and brightly-colored beds of moss catch your | ||
| CF | eye. Pale glowing mists swirl at your feet. Shadows seem to leap from | ||
| CF | dark crevices in the corner, and breezes, some cold, some hot, nip at | ||
| CF | your cheeks. Magic seems to flow from the very rocks, tingling your | ||
| CF | toes. | ||

| CF | hang over your head. Luckily, enclosed spaces don't bother you - only | ||

| CF | glass - and through it, you can see water and what must be the muddy | ||
| CF | bottom of Lake Draounheer! Somehow, you've gotten around to the | ||
| CF | western side of the lake. Perhaps if you strain your eyes, you might | ||
| CF | make out the King's Lake View room on the other side - but no; the lake | ||
| CF | is too wide, and the waters too muddy. Identical passages run | ||
| CF | northeast, northwest, west, and south. To the north is a thick steel | ||
| CF | door, which stands open, revealing a stone staircase leading down. | ||
| CF | Great clouds of hot steam billow up the stairs. If you were to go down | ||
| CF | there, you'd surely be scalded. A sign hangs just above the glass | ||

| CF | there, poking through cracks in the rocky mountain soil. A trail | ||

| CF | north. It's peaceful here, and quite relaxing. A trail leads back up | ||

| CF | north, and flows down from the west. | ||
| CF | | ||

| CF | Lighthouse Top | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on the top floor of the lighthouse. A brisk fall | ||
| CF | breeze whips up from below, chilling you to the bone. From here, | ||
| CF | there's quite a view. Southward, the forest stretches out before you, | ||
| CF | a bright blaze of colors. Across the lake, to the west, are the | ||
| CF | sinister Beegas'hell Mountains. To the north and west, you can just | ||
| CF | make out the mist-covered Damsogee Swamp, a sinister, uncharted land. | ||
| CF | The lighthouse lamp sits in the center of the round floor, on top of a | ||
| CF | brick base. It's currently off. The only exit is back down. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||

| CF | Lighthouse Bottom | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on the bottom floor of the newly-constructed | ||
| CF | lighthouse of the Valley King. Not being one to waste building-space, | ||
| CF | His Grandiosity has turned this lower floor into the mint for valmids, | ||
| CF | the coin of the realm. A huge coin press occupies the center of the | ||
| CF | room. Since the workers work at night, minding both the press and the | ||
| CF | lighthouse, there's no one here right now. A stone staircase leads up, | ||
| CF | winding around the outside of the lighthouse to the top floor. The | ||
| CF | only other exit is south, back out of the lighthouse. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | Knight_Otu asks, "Well, there has to be something that we're missing, but what?" | |
| DavidW says, "I don't know. Try erasing the chalkboard with the erasers." | ||

| CF | Scenic View | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on the highest plateau on this side of the lake. | ||
| CF | Below, to the south, the forest stretches out, a vast expanse of | ||
| CF | impenetrable green foliage. To the southwest and west, you can see the | ||
| CF | waters of Lake Draounheer, sparkling in the bright sunshine, while | ||
| CF | across the lake are the snow-capped peaks of the Beegas'hell mountains. | ||
| CF | North of the lake is the vast unknown reaches of the Damsogee Swamp, | ||
| CF | unexplored by mortal man and said to be home to ferocious beasts and | ||
| CF | fearsome monsters. To the north stands a newly-built lighthouse, the | ||
| CF | latest public work ordered by the Valley King, its stone walls | ||
| CF | impressive and firm. The entrance to the lighthouse stands open to the | ||
| CF | north. The only other safe path down from the plateau leads back | ||
| CF | toward the cliff to the southwest. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "sw" | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Standing so close to the clifftop makes you dizzy. I wouldn't stay | ||
| CF | here too long if I were you. [3] | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Cliff Top | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing at the top of a rocky cliff, overlooking Lake | ||
| CF | Draounheer to the west. It's rather frightening, for you suffer from | ||
| CF | extreme vertigo - in fact, you're feeling a little shaky. [3] To the | ||
| CF | east, a path runs downhill back into the forest, and another path | ||
| CF | leading south slopes down to the lake. You could follow the cliff | ||
| CF | northeast as well; the land slopes up in that direction, but at least | ||
| CF | it's further away from the edge of the cliff. Across the lake are the | ||
| CF | sinister Beegas'hell Mountains, the heart of the Unnkulian menace that | ||
| CF | no doubt your liege shall soon deal with. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The six thugs that make up the Valley Patrol are here, leaning on | ||
| CF | their pikes. They appear to be loafing on the job. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | "Well, we'd better be moving along," the Valley Patrol leader says. | ||
| CF | He yawns and stretches. "Only twenty more minutes on this break, | ||

| CF | Lake Shore East | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on the eastern shore of Lake Draounheer. Across the | ||
| CF | sparkling blue waters, you can see the snow-covered caps of the | ||
| CF | Beeg'ashell Mountains, deep in the heart of evil Unnkulia. But here, | ||
| CF | on this side of the lake, you could truly find peace. Gentle waves lap | ||
| CF | at the shore, and reeds bend gracefully in the brisk fall breezes. To | ||
| CF | the east, a path leads back into the forest. North of here, the land | ||
| CF | slopes up sharply, and the path continues. You could also go southwest, | ||
| CF | along the shore of the lake - further along, the grassy lakeshore turns | ||
| CF | into a sandy beach. | ||
| CF | | ||

| CF | You're bobbing on the waters of Lake Draounheer in a rickety | ||
| CF | rowboat. The waters are clear, but you can't see the bottom of the | ||
| CF | lake - it's quite deep. You're forced to paddle against a gentle | ||
| CF | southerly current, but it's not hard to keep the boat stationary. | ||
| CF | South of here, the lake water is channeled through a narrow fissure in | ||
| CF | Dawg Rock, and becomes a rushing whitewater river. To the east and | ||
| CF | west are sandy beaches, and north of here is a swampy shore. | ||

| CF | uncharted wilderness. Perhaps a wiser man would turn back now - but | ||
| CF | you are a Valley Warrior, and know no fear. Mist swirls at the water's | ||
| CF | edge, and reeds bend in the cold, damp breeze. Two paths lead into the | ||

| CF | stretch. Sinister squishing sounds echo across the sodden moors, and | ||
| CF | sometimes, faintly, you can hear the howl of the wind - or is it a | ||
| CF | wolf? To the east is a low hill, flattened on its top; it's one of the | ||
| CF | old burial mounds of the early Ulian tribesmen. You could climb the | ||
| CF | hill to the east, or follow the path back to the south; all other | ||

| CF | floor is solid stone, good Unnkulian granite. A massive stone coffin | ||

| CF | eye. Pale glowing mists swirl at your feet. Shadows seem to leap from | ||
| CF | dark crevices in the corner, and breezes, some cold, some hot, nip at | ||
| CF | your cheeks. Magic seems to flow from the very rocks, tingling your | ||
| CF | toes. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Tunnels run north and south, and a narrow crawl climbs up to the | ||
| CF | east. At the west end of the cavern is a freshly whitewashed gazebo. | ||

| CF | lake - it's quite deep. You're forced to paddle against a gentle | ||
| CF | southerly current, but it's not hard to keep the boat stationary. | ||
| CF | South of here, the lake water is channeled through a narrow fissure in | ||

| CF | Travelling through Dawg Rock | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're riding in a small boat, hurtling down a narrow north-south | ||
| CF | channel cut through Dawg Rock. Whitewater churns around you, and the | ||
| CF | boat rocks back and forth. To both sides, the thick granite walls lean | ||
| CF | overhead. There's no place to land, and no way to slow down - you're | ||
| CF | totally at the mercy of the churning water. From the south, a distant | ||
| CF | rumbling grows louder - | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a rowboat here. | ||

| CF | see a stone bridge - but it's much too high to reach from the boat. | ||
| CF | And just ahead - a waterfall! Before you have time to react, the boat | ||
| CF | plummets over the sheer drop, smashing the flimsy rowboat (and you) | ||

| CF | continue north; the land around is much too dangerous for you to | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing at the end of a path through the Damsogee Swamp. | ||
| CF | For miles in almost all directions, the treacherous bogs and mires | ||
| CF | stretch. Sinister squishing sounds echo across the sodden moors, and | ||
| CF | sometimes, faintly, you can hear the howl of the wind - or is it a | ||
| CF | wolf? To the east is a low hill, flattened on its top; it's one of the | ||
| CF | old burial mounds of the early Ulian tribesmen. You could climb the | ||
| CF | hill to the east, or follow the path back to the south; all other | ||
| CF | directions are much too dangerous. Fog hangs over every stunted shrub | ||
| CF | here, and the air smells of death and decay. | ||

| CF | out Lake Draounheer through the mist, and to the southeast, the | ||

| CF | the west. There's little of interest up here. | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in an ancient chamber inside the burial mound. High | ||
| CF | above your head, the muddy hole you dug beckons you - but there's no | ||
| CF | way to reach it. The walls of the chamber are hard-packed sod, but the | ||
| CF | floor is solid stone, good Unnkulian granite. A massive stone coffin | ||
| CF | stands in the very center of the room. The only exit from the chamber | ||
| CF | is a narrow passage sloping down to the west, vanishing into darkness. | ||

| CF | Tunnels run north and south, and a narrow crawl climbs up to the | ||
| CF | east. At the west end of the cavern is a freshly whitewashed gazebo. | ||

| CF | hang over your head. Luckily, enclosed spaces don't bother you - only | ||

| CF | western side of the lake. Perhaps if you strain your eyes, you might | ||
| CF | make out the King's Lake View room on the other side - but no; the lake | ||
| CF | is too wide, and the waters too muddy. Identical passages run | ||
| CF | northeast, northwest, west, and south. To the north is a thick steel | ||

| CF | there, poking through cracks in the rocky mountain soil. A trail | ||

| CF | fifteen feet back from the edge helps a lot. Across the gorge you can | ||
| CF | just make out a slender stone tower rising from a rocky mountain-top - | ||
| CF | but of course, you can't get there from here. If only you had an Acme | ||
| CF | Brij Kreeaytor! The only obvious exit is the trail back to the east; | ||

| CF | there is a comfortable chair (upholstered in bright orange) and, on the | ||
| CF | western wall, a bookshelf. In some ways, the room is kind of like an | ||
| CF | evil twin of the King's library back in the Valley. The only exit is | ||
| CF | back to the east. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | A black book and a blue book are sitting on the shelf. | ||

| CF | Lake View | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing in a square chamber carved from the rock. The | ||
| CF | eastern wall of the chamber is made from what appears to be transparent | ||
| CF | glass - and through it, you can see water and what must be the muddy | ||
| CF | bottom of Lake Draounheer! Somehow, you've gotten around to the | ||
| CF | western side of the lake. Perhaps if you strain your eyes, you might | ||
| CF | make out the King's Lake View room on the other side - but no; the lake | ||
| CF | is too wide, and the waters too muddy. Identical passages run | ||
| CF | northeast, northwest, west, and south. To the north is a thick steel | ||
| CF | door, which stands open, revealing a stone staircase leading down. | ||
| CF | Great clouds of hot steam billow up the stairs. If you were to go down | ||
| CF | there, you'd surely be scalded. A sign hangs just above the glass | ||
| CF | wall. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a spade here. | ||

| CF | Tunnel Fork | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing at a fork in a low tunnel cut through the deep | ||
| CF | bedrock of the land. The walls are close around you, and tons of rock | ||
| CF | hang over your head. Luckily, enclosed spaces don't bother you - only | ||
| CF | heights do. Passages run north, east, and southwest. All are about | ||
| CF | the same width and height; none looks more well-traveled than any | ||
| CF | other. | ||

| CF | Mystical Cavern | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a vast, mystical cavern. Stalactites shimmer in | ||
| CF | the pale green lamplight, and brightly-colored beds of moss catch your | ||
| CF | eye. Pale glowing mists swirl at your feet. Shadows seem to leap from | ||
| CF | dark crevices in the corner, and breezes, some cold, some hot, nip at | ||
| CF | your cheeks. Magic seems to flow from the very rocks, tingling your | ||
| CF | toes. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Tunnels run north and south, and a narrow crawl climbs up to the | ||
| CF | east. At the west end of the cavern is a freshly whitewashed gazebo. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a small leather pouch, a cookbook, a steel key, a trowel, a | ||
| CF | corkscrew, a pillow, a long rope, a shiny knife, and a wine bottle | ||
| CF | here. | ||

| CF | Altar Chamber | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing in a chamber cut from dark obsidian. Somehow, you | ||
| CF | feel at peace here. Obviously, this is some kind of temple to one of | ||
| CF | the gods of ancient Ul. Patterned mosaics cover the floor, and the | ||
| CF | black walls are streaked with swirls of white marble. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | A simple, featureless altar made from dark gray granite is built | ||
| CF | into the northern wall. Above the altar, some writing has been carved | ||
| CF | into the black stones. Identical passages run south, east, and west. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | There's an old monk here, seated on the altar. He looks like he | ||
| CF | hasn't slept or eaten in days, and appears to be very distressed. He | ||
| CF | glances up as you enter. "Welcome, Valley Warrior." | ||

| CF | You recognize some of the images as icons of the ancient Duhdhist | ||
| CF | religion. This must be a temple of that long-forgotten god. | ||

| CF | Monk's Kitchen | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're in a small, square chamber with a low ceiling. In the center | ||
| CF | of the room is a rusty oven. It appears to have been pulled away from | ||
| CF | the wall, revealing a very narrow tunnel to the east. Attached to the | ||
| CF | northern wall is a long wooden shelf. Otherwise, the room is quite | ||

| CF | Musty Tomb | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in an ancient chamber inside the burial mound. High | ||
| CF | above your head, the muddy hole you dug beckons you - but there's no | ||
| CF | way to reach it. The walls of the chamber are hard-packed sod, but the | ||
| CF | floor is solid stone, good Unnkulian granite. A massive stone coffin | ||
| CF | stands in the very center of the room. The only exit from the chamber | ||
| CF | is a narrow passage sloping down to the west, vanishing into darkness. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a trampoline and a barbell here. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW asks, "Attacking the kitchen stuff, eh?" | |
| Knight_Otu says, "Almost." | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "i" | ||
| CF | You have a robe (being worn), an oar, a sword, a dragon's egg, a single | ||
| CF | brick, a thin wand, a pickaxe, a pair of erasers, and a soft pretzel. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "jump on trampoline" | ||
| CF | You jump on the trampoline and fly straight up through the hole | ||
| CF | overhead, landing on the soft grass next to the hole on top of the | ||
| CF | burial mound. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | On Top of the Burial Mound | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on top of the burial mound, perhaps thirty feet | ||
| CF | above the damp, swampy ground below. To the south, you can just make | ||
| CF | out Lake Draounheer through the mist, and to the southeast, the | ||
| CF | clifftop and the lighthouse. The only safe path off the mound is to | ||
| CF | the west. There's little of interest up here. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "w" | ||
| CF | At the Burial Mound | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing at the end of a path through the Damsogee Swamp. | ||
| CF | For miles in almost all directions, the treacherous bogs and mires | ||
| CF | stretch. Sinister squishing sounds echo across the sodden moors, and | ||
| CF | sometimes, faintly, you can hear the howl of the wind - or is it a | ||
| CF | wolf? To the east is a low hill, flattened on its top; it's one of the | ||
| CF | old burial mounds of the early Ulian tribesmen. You could climb the | ||
| CF | hill to the east, or follow the path back to the south; all other | ||
| CF | directions are much too dangerous. Fog hangs over every stunted shrub | ||
| CF | here, and the air smells of death and decay. | ||

| CF | Stoll Bridge | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing just south of a rickety wooden bridge that crosses a | ||
| CF | particularly swampy bit of land. The bridge is the only way to | ||
| CF | continue north; the land around is much too dangerous for you to | ||
| CF | wander. Beyond the bridge, to the north, you can see what looks like a | ||
| CF | low hill. The only other path leads south, back toward Lake | ||
| CF | Draounheer. | ||

| CF | North Shore | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're on the north shore of Lake Draounheer, at the southern edge | ||
| CF | of the infamous Damsogee Swamp. This is unexplored territory now; | ||
| CF | you've left the safety of the Forest of Radeekal for dangerous and | ||
| CF | uncharted wilderness. Perhaps a wiser man would turn back now - but | ||
| CF | you are a Valley Warrior, and know no fear. Mist swirls at the water's | ||
| CF | edge, and reeds bend in the cold, damp breeze. Two paths lead into the | ||
| CF | swamp, one due north, the other northwest. The path is surprisingly | ||
| CF | well-traveled; small footprints lead north. | ||

| CF | Swamp Trail | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're walking on a twisting trail that runs deep into the heart of | ||
| CF | the Damsogee Swamp. Dying plants sprout from waterlogged soil, and | ||
| CF | low-lying fog hugs the ground like a burial shroud. Even the bright | ||
| CF | afternoon sun is having trouble burning off the thick mist. It's quite | ||
| CF | depressing here. The trail continues northwest and southeast. The | ||
| CF | ground looks fairly solid to the west; you could probably find a path | ||
| CF | that way as well. | ||

| CF | Bog | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're deep in the heart of the swamp now, in a dismal clearing of | ||
| CF | quicksand and mire. A gentle old willow tree hangs over the clearing, | ||
| CF | vine-covered branches dipping low. One of the vines has been chewed | ||
| CF | through, and a length of it has fallen across the quicksand. The only | ||
| CF | safe path is back to the east. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Without warning, your feet sink into the muck. You try to move, but | ||
| CF | can't. You're sinking in the quicksand - and you don't have much time | ||
| CF | left! | ||

| CF | seems bottomless. Finally, lungs bursting, you breathe in a mouthful | ||
| CF | of moist sand - | ||

| CF | stretch. Sinister squishing sounds echo across the sodden moors, and | ||
| CF | sometimes, faintly, you can hear the howl of the wind - or is it a | ||
| CF | wolf? To the east is a low hill, flattened on its top; it's one of the | ||
| CF | old burial mounds of the early Ulian tribesmen. You could climb the | ||
| CF | hill to the east, or follow the path back to the south; all other | ||

| CF | floor is solid stone, good Unnkulian granite. A massive stone coffin | ||

| CF | eye. Pale glowing mists swirl at your feet. Shadows seem to leap from | ||
| CF | dark crevices in the corner, and breezes, some cold, some hot, nip at | ||
| CF | your cheeks. Magic seems to flow from the very rocks, tingling your | ||
| CF | toes. | ||

| CF | Tunnels run north and south, and a narrow crawl climbs up to the | ||
| CF | east. At the west end of the cavern is a freshly whitewashed gazebo. | ||

| CF | hang over your head. Luckily, enclosed spaces don't bother you - only | ||

| CF | glass - and through it, you can see water and what must be the muddy | ||
| CF | bottom of Lake Draounheer! Somehow, you've gotten around to the | ||
| CF | western side of the lake. Perhaps if you strain your eyes, you might | ||
| CF | make out the King's Lake View room on the other side - but no; the lake | ||
| CF | is too wide, and the waters too muddy. Identical passages run | ||
| CF | northeast, northwest, west, and south. To the north is a thick steel | ||

| CF | wall. | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x window" | ||
| CF | The wall's not like the one in the King's lake view room. It's quite | ||
| CF | strong, and has a much different feel to it - almost rubbery to the | ||
| CF | touch. Through the glass, you can see a few fish swimming along the | ||
| CF | bottom of the lake. Tiny raised letters run along the bottom of the | ||
| CF | wall. They read, "Wowsa Willy's Wonder Wall." | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "throw brick at window" | ||
| CF | You toss the brick at the wall. With a great crashing sound, the brick | ||
| CF | shatters the strange glass! Lake water rushes into the room, burying | ||
| CF | you in a soaking torrent. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Out of the corner of your eye, you can see the water rushing down | ||
| CF | the stairs to the north. A loud hissing sound reaches your ears, and, | ||
| CF | for a moment, the billowing steam flowing from the doorway increases in | ||
| CF | volume. Then, without warning, the steam slowly dissipates. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | *** Your score has just gone up. *** | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Suddenly, without warning, the water is sucked back into the lake | ||
| CF | with a great slurping sound. You stare at the strange wall - and | ||
| CF | realize that the hole you created has been somehow repaired! The wall | ||
| CF | is back to normal once again, and you're a bit damp but otherwise | ||
| CF | uninjured. Only a few rivulets of water dripping from the walls - and | ||
| CF | the brick lying on the ground - give any sign of what happened here. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | Knight_Otu blinks. | |
| DavidW says, "oh, so the lake's glass." | ||
| DavidW asks, "That window?" | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "I'm not sure whether we should have gotten that or not." | ||
| DavidW says, "Anyway, we should be able to enter the sauna now." | ||

| CF | Steam Sauna | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing at a small room, at the foot of a short flight of | ||
| CF | stairs. The walls are mauve and orange linoleum in alternating squares | ||
| CF | - quite hideous - and are dripping with water. A low bench sits | ||
| CF | against the north wall, and an iron bucket filled with rocks stands in | ||
| CF | one corner. It's quite warm and humid in here. The only exit is to | ||
| CF | the south, back up the stairs. | ||
| CF | | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x bucket" | ||
| CF | The iron bucket is filled with rocks, and nailed to the floor. | ||
| CF | Probably, the rocks were heated and then splashed with water to produce | ||
| CF | steam for the sauna. The rocks are cooling off fast, but are still | ||
| CF | quite hot. | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "put egg in bucket" | ||
| CF | You drop the egg on the hot rocks. It sizzles up nicely, frying a deep | ||
| CF | golden brown. Carefully, you pick it up. If you weren't a | ||
| CF | battle-hardened Valley Warrior, it might burn your hands. | ||

| CF | Lake View | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing in a square chamber carved from the rock. The | ||
| CF | eastern wall of the chamber is made from what appears to be transparent | ||
| CF | glass - and through it, you can see water and what must be the muddy | ||
| CF | bottom of Lake Draounheer! Somehow, you've gotten around to the | ||
| CF | western side of the lake. Perhaps if you strain your eyes, you might | ||
| CF | make out the King's Lake View room on the other side - but no; the lake | ||
| CF | is too wide, and the waters too muddy. Identical passages run | ||
| CF | northeast, northwest, west, and south. To the north is a thick steel | ||
| CF | door, which stands open, revealing a stone staircase leading down. A | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a vast, mystical cavern. Stalactites shimmer in | ||
| CF | the pale green lamplight, and brightly-colored beds of moss catch your | ||
| CF | eye. Pale glowing mists swirl at your feet. Shadows seem to leap from | ||
| CF | dark crevices in the corner, and breezes, some cold, some hot, nip at | ||
| CF | your cheeks. Magic seems to flow from the very rocks, tingling your | ||
| CF | toes. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Tunnels run north and south, and a narrow crawl climbs up to the | ||
| CF | east. At the west end of the cavern is a freshly whitewashed gazebo. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a small leather pouch, a cookbook, a steel key, a trowel, a | ||

| CF | the gods of ancient Ul. Patterned mosaics cover the floor, and the | ||
| CF | black walls are streaked with swirls of white marble. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | A simple, featureless altar made from dark gray granite is built | ||
| CF | into the northern wall. Above the altar, some writing has been carved | ||
| CF | into the black stones. Identical passages run south, east, and west. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | There's an old monk here, seated on the altar. He looks like he | ||
| CF | hasn't slept or eaten in days, and appears to be very distressed. He | ||
| CF | glances up as you enter. "Welcome, Valley Warrior." | ||

| CF | I don't know the word "giveegg". | ||
| CF | | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "give egg to monk" | ||
| CF | The monk grabs the still-warm egg from your outstretched hands, and | ||
| CF | bites into it. Yolk runs down his stubbly chin, and he grins | ||
| CF | blissfully, eyes closed, as if remembering long-lost happier days. "If | ||
| CF | cooked it be - " he whispers, then turns a cartwheel, whooping and | ||
| CF | shouting with glee. "You are eggsactlee the Warrior foretold!" he | ||
| CF | cries, leaping atop the altar. "You must restore the Valley King's | ||
| CF | faith! Seek enlightenment from the eggsistential master himself - | ||
| CF | Duhdha!" The monk tosses the remnants of the egg down on the altar. | ||
| CF | There's a flash - and then a great cloud of thick white smoke. You | ||
| CF | cover your mouth, coughing. The smoke finally clears - and you stare | ||
| CF | in amazement. The altar and the monk have vanished. In the north | ||
| CF | wall, a strange circular portal has opened, but you can't really see | ||
| CF | through it; dense, swirling fog billows from the portal. From | ||
| CF | somewhere far off, a faint voice calls "Remember! Only the persistent | ||

| CF | shouts. "You've played a Tu-kool Yu Whin pattern! All your stones are | ||
| CF | comatose, and you've forced a tie!" | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The voice grows quiet. "Truly, you must be enlightened to make such | ||
| CF | a move at random. You've forced a tie with the Great Duhdha, and | ||
| CF | glimpsed the duality of the universe. Remember this, O Warrior. Black | ||
| CF | is sometimes white, white is sometimes black, and the duality must | ||
| CF | always be maintained. Such is the true way of Duhdha." The voice | ||

| CF | open doors of iron as well as doors of perception." | ||

| CF | plated with iron, and a dank, oily stench fills the humid air. | ||
| CF | Identical, low hallways run northwest and southwest. A wider tunnel | ||
| CF | runs south; that route is more rocky and looks like a natural passage. | ||
| CF | A dim red glow is faintly visible to the south. From somewhere far | ||
| CF | away, a low humming noise reaches your ears, but you can't make out | ||
| CF | what it is from here. A dark stone stair climbs up to the east. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The warrior in you senses danger - your skin is tingling, and the | ||
| CF | thumping beat of your heart echoes in your ears, practically drowning | ||
| CF | out the quiet humming sound. Could this be an entrance into the dread | ||
| CF | and dangerous caverns under Unnkulia - the Unnkulian Underworld that | ||
| CF | you'd thought the Valley King had sealed off with his Guardians? | ||

| CF | southeast and southwest. A strange control panel takes up a good bit | ||
| CF | of the curving northern wall. One unique feature of the chamber is a | ||

| CF | know what to turn first. Blinking lights illuminate the readouts, but | ||
| CF | provide no clue as to what does what. However, one large white dial in | ||
| CF | the very center of the panel looks promising. There's a cube-shaped | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x man" | ||
| CF | From the position of the man's body, it appears that he fell down the | ||

| CF | the word "Hobson" stenciled above his heart. | ||

| CF | On the Catwalks | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on a metal catwalk that curves around the outside of | ||
| CF | a deep metal shaft. You sigh; you're almost starting to get used to | ||
| CF | high places, and the shaft is hardly as scary as the chasm, or the | ||
| CF | clifftop, or the bell tower. From deep in the bowels of the earth, an | ||
| CF | intense white light shines up the shaft, nearly blinding you. The | ||
| CF | humming noise you heard downstairs is louder here, and heat washes over | ||
| CF | you from below. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Underneath you, through the catwalk, you can see the control room. | ||
| CF | A narrow metal stair leads down to the chamber, and the catwalk curves | ||
| CF | around the shaft to the southwest and southeast. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW | A Hobson's choice is a free choice in which only one thing is offered. Because a person may refuse to accept what is offered, the two options are taking it or taking nothing. In other words, one may "take it or leave it". | |
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "d" | ||
| CF | Control Station | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | This chamber looks much like the round room at the foot of the | ||
| CF | stairs - iron walls and two identical passages, this time to the | ||
| CF | southeast and southwest. A strange control panel takes up a good bit | ||
| CF | of the curving northern wall. One unique feature of the chamber is a | ||
| CF | winding spiral stair in the center of the room that climbs up into | ||
| CF | darkness. Dim lights in the wall above the control panel illuminate | ||
| CF | the chamber in a ruddy glow. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | There's a dead man lying on the floor here. His neck's been | ||
| CF | snapped. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x hole" | ||
| CF | The hole's about two inches on a side. Probably one of those infamous | ||
| CF | Unnkulian activation-cubes would fit in it. | ||

| CF | There's no verb in that sentence! | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "turn dial to 1" | ||
| CF | The dial won't turn. | ||

| CF | For just a moment, you feel queasy, but the feeling soon passes. | ||
| CF | | ||

| DavidW asks, "Did you search the man yet?" | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "search man" | ||
| CF | From the position of the man's body, it appears that he fell down the | ||

| CF | Dripping Chamber | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in yet another round chamber deep in the bowels of | ||
| CF | Unnkulia. The iron-plated walls drip with moisture and oil, the faint | ||
| CF | humming noise is as loud as ever, and the harsh, metallic odor of | ||
| CF | machinery is ever-present and overpowering. Identical passages run | ||
| CF | northeast and southeast, and a narrower hallway runs southwest. | ||
| CF | There's a sealed door to the west, with no apparent means of opening | ||

| CF | plated with iron, and a dank, oily stench fills the humid air. | ||
| CF | Identical, low hallways run northwest and southwest. A wider tunnel | ||
| CF | runs south; that route is more rocky and looks like a natural passage. | ||
| CF | A dim red glow is faintly visible to the south. From somewhere far | ||
| CF | away, a low humming noise reaches your ears, but you can't make out | ||
| CF | what it is from here. A dark stone stair climbs up to the east. | ||

| CF | Research Lab | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | This is a gloomy square chamber filled with sinister-looking | ||
| CF | gadgets. A long stone table lines the western wall, a strange bicycle | ||
| CF | stands in the very center of the room, an odd blue box stands in the | ||
| CF | northwest corner, and a large metal cage stands against the eastern | ||
| CF | wall. Passages run northeast and south. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | A pile of debris is sitting on the stone table. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | There's a strange old man here, rummaging through the stuff on the | ||
| CF | table. From the chemical stains on his hands and clothes you guess he | ||
| CF | must be a scientist. He glances at you briefly. "Ah, there you are, | ||
| CF | Hobson," he says. "Have you seen my stirring rod? I've lost the | ||
| CF | blasted thing." | ||
| CF | | ||

| CF | in the world did I do with that blasted thing?" | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x debris" | ||

| CF | of interest. The scientist certainly keeps a messy workplace. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x bicycle" | ||
| CF | The bicycle is of the stationary variety, with no wheels. It's plated | ||
| CF | with chrome, and quite flashy. There's a small digital display between | ||
| CF | the handlebars. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x display" | ||
| CF | The display reads "-1617 RY." | ||

| Knight_Otu says, "Possibly." | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x box" | ||
| CF | The sides of the box are swirls of blue and white. The box appears to | ||
| CF | be made out of some type of metal, but it's like no metal you've seen | ||
| CF | before - smooth, quite hard, and extremely shiny. Oh, for a sword made | ||
| CF | of such material! There's a large green button on top of the box. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x button" | ||
| CF | Which button do you mean, the green button, or the Duhdha's belly | ||
| CF | button? | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "green" | ||
| CF | It looks like an ordinary green button to me. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | Knight_Otu says, "I suppose that's fair." | |
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x large cage" | ||
| CF | It's quite a large cage, much too large for you to carry. There's a | ||
| CF | gnooby inside. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x gnooby" | ||
| CF | You don't know why, but you really think the creature in the cage must | ||
| CF | be called a gnooby. It's about the size of a poodle, it's round with | ||
| CF | short, stubby legs, it's covered in purple fur, and it has beady little | ||
| CF | red eyes. It's certainly not a native of the Valley, or Unnkulia. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW asks, "search the debris for the rod?" | |
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "search debris" | ||

| CF | Okay, you're now in the stationary bicycle. | ||
| CF | | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "ride bike" | ||
| CF | You pedal the bike furiously. "No, you fool!" you hear the scientist | ||
| CF | shout. Suddenly, there's a blinding flash of light, and your stomach | ||
| CF | turns inside out. You close your eyes tightly, trying to keep your | ||
| CF | breakfast down. When you open them again, you seem to have shifted - | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're seated on a stationary bicycle in a long, rectangular | ||
| CF | chamber. The walls are shiny metal. From under the floor, a quiet | ||
| CF | humming noise reverberates through the chamber. Several low bunks line | ||
| CF | the walls. At the south end of the chamber is a massive metal locker, | ||
| CF | currently closed. Strangely, you feel rather light-footed here, as if | ||
| CF | you weigh less than normal. There's an open doorway to the north. | ||
| CF | | ||

| CF | hang low on the horizon. Black underbrush obscures the forest floor - | ||
| CF | is that a gnooby you glimpse, darting in and out of the vegetation? | ||
| CF | first screen: The first screen is rather boring. It shows a chamber | ||
| CF | that looks suspiciously like the barracks you just came from - right | ||
| CF | down to the strange stationary bicycle. | ||
| CF | second screen: The second screen shows a vast glowing chamber filled | ||
| CF | with strange machinery. Huge gray rods climb from floor to ceiling, | ||
| CF | and tiny human figures scurrying back and forth give some idea of the | ||
| CF | immensity of the scale. | ||

| CF | the side read "Matter-Mover," and beneath that, smaller lettering reads | ||
| CF | "Colorspace Olive Drab: 4196, 5568, 1372." The capsule has three | ||

| CF | snoring. A passage runs south - back to the barracks - and a huge | ||

| CF | strange machine. | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x first" | ||
| CF | The first screen is rather boring. It shows a chamber that looks | ||

| CF | Barracks | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing next to a stationary bicycle in a long, rectangular | ||
| CF | chamber. The walls are shiny metal. From under the floor, a quiet | ||
| CF | humming noise reverberates through the chamber. Several low bunks line | ||
| CF | the walls. At the south end of the chamber is a massive metal locker, | ||
| CF | currently open. Strangely, you feel rather light-footed here, as if | ||
| CF | you weigh less than normal. There's an open doorway to the north. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The locker seems to contain a pair of boots. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x boots" | ||
| CF | The boots are made from polished black leather, with steel tips. | ||
| CF | They're quite sturdy. [23] | ||

| CF | you find yourself elsewhere - | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The scientist is standing here, frowning. "Don't do that again," he | ||

| CF | Supply Closet | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | This tiny chamber is obviously the supply closet for the scientist's | ||
| CF | lab. There's not much of interest except a wooden shelf along the | ||
| CF | southern wall. The only exit is back to the north. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | A tiny bottle of pills, a mauve cube, and a Geiger counter are | ||
| CF | sitting on the wooden shelf. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x pills" | ||
| CF | The bottle contains quite a few blue pills. A label on the outside | ||
| CF | reads "Iodine - For Radiation Sickness." | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW says, "I guess we went through those rooms too quickly for me to process things correctly." | |
| Knight_Otu says, "Sorry, I'll try to slow down." | ||
| DavidW says, "No, it's not your fault. There's just been a lot of new stuff." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "Must be the excitement of having reached new rooms." | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x cube" | ||
| CF | The cube is about an inch on a side, and made out of a crumbly | ||
| CF | material. Tiny raised letters along one side read "Akmi Galaktikorp | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x counter" | ||
| CF | The Geiger counter is a rather cumbersome and bulky device, a heavy | ||
| CF | black box with a readout on top. You know what it is because the | ||
| CF | Valley King has one, though his isn't made by Acme - tiny letters on | ||
| CF | the side of this one read "Acme Soopur Pro-tek-tore Gygur Kowntur." | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x readout" | ||
| CF | There are three bands of color on the Geiger counter readout - green, | ||
| CF | yellow, and red. The red band is labelled with a little | ||
| CF | skull-and-crossbones. The tacky bit is that the skull appears to be | ||
| CF | wearing Acme cheez specs - what a shameless product plug! [24] | ||
| CF | Currently, the needle is well into the red band. | ||

| CF | Research Lab | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | This is a gloomy square chamber filled with sinister-looking | ||
| CF | gadgets. A long stone table lines the western wall, a strange bicycle | ||
| CF | stands in the very center of the room, an odd blue box stands in the | ||
| CF | northwest corner, and a large metal cage stands against the eastern | ||
| CF | wall. Passages run northeast and south. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | A pile of debris is sitting on the stone table. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | There's a strange old man here, rummaging through the stuff on the | ||
| CF | table. From the chemical stains on his hands and clothes you guess he | ||
| CF | must be a scientist. He glances at you briefly. "Ah, there you are, | ||
| CF | Hobson," he says. "Have you seen my stirring rod? I've lost the | ||
| CF | blasted thing." | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW says, "So perhaps the white dial controls the radiation level." | |

| CF | Dripping Chamber | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in yet another round chamber deep in the bowels of | ||
| CF | Unnkulia. The iron-plated walls drip with moisture and oil, the faint | ||
| CF | humming noise is as loud as ever, and the harsh, metallic odor of | ||
| CF | machinery is ever-present and overpowering. Identical passages run | ||
| CF | northeast and southeast, and a narrower hallway runs southwest. | ||
| CF | There's a sealed door to the west, with no apparent means of opening | ||
| CF | it. There's a faint light just visible at the end of the southwest | ||
| CF | corridor. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | DavidW says, "like, insert the cube in the hole as a key then turn the dial to 1 to reduce radiation. Maybe." | |

| CF | Control Station | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | This chamber looks much like the round room at the foot of the | ||
| CF | stairs - iron walls and two identical passages, this time to the | ||
| CF | southeast and southwest. A strange control panel takes up a good bit | ||
| CF | of the curving northern wall. One unique feature of the chamber is a | ||
| CF | winding spiral stair in the center of the room that climbs up into | ||
| CF | darkness. Dim lights in the wall above the control panel illuminate | ||
| CF | the chamber in a ruddy glow. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | There's a dead man lying on the floor here. His neck's been | ||
| CF | snapped. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "put cube in hole" | ||
| CF | You stick the mauve cube in the control panel. Sparks fly and lights | ||
| CF | flicker. Then, without warning, the panel makes a loud noise (PTOOEY!) | ||
| CF | and the mauve cube sails across the room. I guess it wasn't very | ||
| CF | appetizing - | ||

| CF | On the Catwalks | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on a metal catwalk that curves around the outside of | ||
| CF | a deep metal shaft. You sigh; you're almost starting to get used to | ||
| CF | high places, and the shaft is hardly as scary as the chasm, or the | ||
| CF | clifftop, or the bell tower. From deep in the bowels of the earth, an | ||
| CF | intense white light shines up the shaft, nearly blinding you. The | ||
| CF | humming noise you heard downstairs is louder here, and heat washes over | ||
| CF | you from below. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Underneath you, through the catwalk, you can see the control room. | ||
| CF | A narrow metal stair leads down to the chamber, and the catwalk curves | ||
| CF | around the shaft to the southwest and southeast. | ||
| CF | | ||

| CF | There are three bands of color on the Geiger counter readout - green, | ||

| CF | I don't see any light here. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x shaft" | ||
| CF | The walls of the shaft look like hard, polished glass. The warm light | ||
| CF | from below reflects off the surfaces as if they were mirrors. | ||
| CF | Certainly, the shaft is too slippery for you to climb down, though I | ||
| CF | suppose you could enter the shaft if you were feeling suicidal. | ||

| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "se" | ||
| CF | On the Catwalks | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're moving around a catwalk just east of the metal shaft. If | ||
| CF | anything, the heat's more intense here, and the light is quite | ||
| CF | brilliant. The catwalk curves around to the southwest and northwest. | ||
| CF | Below, through grates in the floor, you can see what are probably | ||
| CF | heating or ventilation ducts. This stretch of the catwalk is fairly | ||
| CF | uninteresting. | ||
| CF | | ||

| CF | you're continually mopping your face. The catwalk continues around the | ||
| CF | deep hole to the northeast and northwest. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | There's a large rusted patch in the curving southern wall, but this | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're worming your way through a narrow crawl space that runs to | ||
| CF | the northeast and south. The floor underneath your hands and knees is | ||
| CF | warm, and a gentle humming sound reverberates through the metal | ||
| CF | passage. There must be a heating duct right underneath you, running | ||
| CF | toward the south. Luckily, you're only afraid of heights and not | ||
| CF | enclosed spaces or you'd be quite distressed; it's a tight fit for a | ||
| CF | burly Valley Warrior. From the south, you can hear gruff, demonic | ||

| CF | The crawl space terminates at a metal grate, suspended above what | ||
| CF | appears to be a meeting-chamber. You can't really see through the | ||
| CF | grate too well; the holes are too close together. From the chamber | ||
| CF | below, you hear gruff, demonic voices arguing, and see monstrous shapes | ||
| CF | moving around. You could squeeze back through the crawl space to the | ||

| CF | passage. There must be a heating duct right underneath you, running | ||
| CF | toward the south. Luckily, you're only afraid of heights and not | ||
| CF | enclosed spaces or you'd be quite distressed; it's a tight fit for a | ||

| CF | machinery is ever-present and overpowering. Identical passages run | ||
| CF | northeast and southeast, and a narrower hallway runs southwest. | ||

| CF | permeates the hall, seeming to throb with diabolical intensity. | ||

| CF | the shape of a gigantic snaggletoothed mouth. It's quite a | ||
| CF | disconcerting image, especially since beyond the doorway is only | ||
| CF | darkness. A narrow hallway runs west, and a wooden door to the east is | ||
| CF | closed. From the west, you can see a faint reddish glow and you can | ||

| CF | the window, you can see a beautiful rainbow bridge spanning the chasm. | ||
| CF | Below, a molten river of lava flows through the rock, carving the gorge | ||
| CF | from the living rock. It's an amazing sight. A massive ebony throne | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in yet another round chamber deep in the bowels of | ||
| CF | Unnkulia. The iron-plated walls drip with moisture and oil, the faint | ||
| CF | humming noise is as loud as ever, and the harsh, metallic odor of | ||
| CF | machinery is ever-present and overpowering. Identical passages run | ||
| CF | northeast and southeast, and a narrower hallway runs southwest. | ||
| CF | There's a sealed door to the west, with no apparent means of opening | ||
| CF | it. There's a faint light just visible at the end of the southwest | ||

| CF | southeast and southwest. A strange control panel takes up a good bit | ||

| CF | bedrock of the land. The walls are close around you, and tons of rock | ||
| CF | hang over your head. Luckily, enclosed spaces don't bother you - only | ||
| CF | heights do. Passages run north, east, and southwest. All are about | ||
| CF | the same width and height; none looks more well-traveled than any | ||
| CF | other. | ||

| CF | your cheeks. Magic seems to flow from the very rocks, tingling your | ||

| CF | babbles gentle murmurings, and a sweet-smelling breeze blows from the | ||
| CF | north. It's peaceful here, and quite relaxing. A trail leads back up | ||
| CF | into the Beeg'ashell Mountains to the southwest. The river is to the | ||
| CF | north, and flows down from the west. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | There's a beautiful woman seated at the water's edge - could it be | ||

| CF | stairs - iron walls and two identical passages, this time to the | ||
| CF | southeast and southwest. A strange control panel takes up a good bit | ||
| CF | of the curving northern wall. One unique feature of the chamber is a | ||
| CF | winding spiral stair in the center of the room that climbs up into | ||
| CF | darkness. Dim lights in the wall above the control panel illuminate | ||
| CF | the chamber in a ruddy glow. | ||

| CF | Round Room | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a strange round chamber. The walls here are | ||
| CF | plated with iron, and a dank, oily stench fills the humid air. | ||
| CF | Identical, low hallways run northwest and southwest. A wider tunnel | ||
| CF | runs south; that route is more rocky and looks like a natural passage. | ||
| CF | A dim red glow is faintly visible to the south. From somewhere far | ||
| CF | away, a low humming noise reaches your ears, but you can't make out | ||
| CF | what it is from here. A dark stone stair climbs up to the east. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "e" | ||
| CF | Exit to Surface | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a carved square chamber with an arched roof. | ||
| CF | Stairs climb up to the northwest, and bright sunlight filters down, | ||
| CF | bathing the room in a pale yellow glow. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | To the west, a great iron door has been opened, revealing a damp, | ||
| CF | dark passage plunging deeper into the earth. Passages run north and | ||
| CF | southwest as well. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "n" | ||
| CF | Lake View | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing in a square chamber carved from the rock. The | ||
| CF | eastern wall of the chamber is made from what appears to be transparent | ||
| CF | glass - and through it, you can see water and what must be the muddy | ||
| CF | bottom of Lake Draounheer! Somehow, you've gotten around to the | ||
| CF | western side of the lake. Perhaps if you strain your eyes, you might | ||
| CF | make out the King's Lake View room on the other side - but no; the lake | ||
| CF | is too wide, and the waters too muddy. Identical passages run | ||
| CF | northeast, northwest, west, and south. To the north is a thick steel | ||
| CF | door, which is closed. A sign hangs just above the glass wall. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a spade here. | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "ne" | ||
| CF | Tunnel Fork | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing at a fork in a low tunnel cut through the deep | ||
| CF | bedrock of the land. The walls are close around you, and tons of rock | ||
| CF | hang over your head. Luckily, enclosed spaces don't bother you - only | ||
| CF | heights do. Passages run north, east, and southwest. All are about | ||
| CF | the same width and height; none looks more well-traveled than any | ||
| CF | other. | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "e" | ||
| CF | Edge of Pit | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a circular room at the edge of a deep pit. A | ||
| CF | ledge runs around the room, above the pit. Being here makes your | ||
| CF | stomach churn; the pit's quite deep, and your fear of heights is as | ||
| CF | strong as ever. [3] An iron hook is embedded in one of the walls. | ||
| CF | The only exit from the room is a passage back through the rock to the | ||
| CF | west. Below, in the pit, you can see what appears to be a baby dragon. | ||
| CF | It looks up at you briefly, then trips over its tail and falls down | ||
| CF | with a loud squeak. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "throw brick at dragon" | ||
| CF | You drop the brick. It lands smack in the middle of the dragon's head. | ||

| CF | unconscious. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "tie rope to hook" | ||
| CF | Okay, the rope is now tied to the hook. The other end dangles down | ||
| CF | into the pit, just touching the floor. You could probably get down | ||
| CF | there now. | ||

| CF | You're standing at the bottom of a pit, cut into the rock. The | ||
| CF | walls are solid bedrock, and quite sheer; you won't be able to climb up | ||
| CF | them. Luckily, a rope dangles down from above. Cutting this pit must | ||
| CF | have been a monumental task; obviously, this is no natural cavern. | ||
| CF | Only the ancient Ulians could have made such a hole - and only with | ||
| CF | magical help. Narrow, low passages runs southeast and northeast. A | ||
| CF | baby dragon lies at your feet, curled up and snoozing peacefully. I'd | ||
| CF | let sleeping dragons lie if I were you. | ||
| CF | | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a strange, spherical room. The walls seem to | ||
| CF | glow with pale, bright shades of purple and blue - your lamp is not | ||
| CF | needed here. The curving floor and walls feel like slick metal | ||
| CF | underfoot, and you're having some difficulty maintaining your balance. | ||
| CF | Round tunnels, made from the same strange purple-blue metal, run north, | ||
| CF | south, east, and west. [11] A more normal-looking passage, hewn from | ||
| CF | gray rock, runs northwest. In the center of the floor is a small, | ||
| CF | round chute. It vanishes into darkness a few feet below the floor. | ||

| CF | surprise.) Could the fair Amanda have passed this way? Though you | ||
| CF | entered these caverns through the tombs, the footprints from the lake | ||
| CF | did lead back into the swamps; perhaps Amanda found another way down | ||

| CF | You're standing at the bottom of a pit, cut into the rock. The | ||

| CF | them. Luckily, a rope dangles down from above. Cutting this pit must | ||
| CF | have been a monumental task; obviously, this is no natural cavern. | ||
| CF | Only the ancient Ulians could have made such a hole - and only with | ||
| CF | magical help. Narrow, low passages runs southeast and northeast. A | ||

| CF | stomach churn; the pit's quite deep, and your fear of heights is as | ||
| CF | strong as ever. [3] An iron hook is embedded in one of the walls. | ||
| CF | The only exit from the room is a passage back through the rock to the | ||
| CF | west. A long rope is tied to it, and the other end dangles down into | ||
| CF | the pit. Below, in the pit, is a baby dragon, curled up and fast | ||

| CF | western side of the lake. Perhaps if you strain your eyes, you might | ||
| CF | make out the King's Lake View room on the other side - but no; the lake | ||
| CF | is too wide, and the waters too muddy. Identical passages run | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing in a chamber cut from dark obsidian. Somehow, you | ||

| CF | the gods of ancient Ul. Patterned mosaics cover the floor, and the | ||
| CF | black walls are streaked with swirls of white marble. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | A simple, featureless altar made from dark gray granite is built | ||
| CF | into the northern wall. Above the altar, some writing has been carved | ||
| CF | into the black stones. Identical passages run south, east, and west. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | There's an old monk here, seated on the altar. He looks like he | ||
| CF | hasn't slept or eaten in days, and appears to be very distressed. He | ||
| CF | glances up as you enter. "Welcome, Valley Warrior." | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "give egg to monk" | ||
| CF | The monk grabs the still-warm egg from your outstretched hands, and | ||
| CF | bites into it. Yolk runs down his stubbly chin, and he grins | ||
| CF | blissfully, eyes closed, as if remembering long-lost happier days. "If | ||
| CF | cooked it be - " he whispers, then turns a cartwheel, whooping and | ||
| CF | shouting with glee. "You are eggsactlee the Warrior foretold!" he | ||
| CF | cries, leaping atop the altar. "You must restore the Valley King's | ||
| CF | faith! Seek enlightenment from the eggsistential master himself - | ||
| CF | Duhdha!" The monk tosses the remnants of the egg down on the altar. | ||
| CF | There's a flash - and then a great cloud of thick white smoke. You | ||
| CF | cover your mouth, coughing. The smoke finally clears - and you stare | ||
| CF | in amazement. The altar and the monk have vanished. In the north | ||
| CF | wall, a strange circular portal has opened, but you can't really see | ||
| CF | through it; dense, swirling fog billows from the portal. From | ||
| CF | somewhere far off, a faint voice calls "Remember! Only the persistent | ||

| CF | comatose, and you've forced a tie!" | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The voice grows quiet. "Truly, you must be enlightened to make such | ||

| CF | glimpsed the duality of the universe. Remember this, O Warrior. Black | ||

| CF | Altar Chamber | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You are standing in a chamber cut from dark obsidian. Somehow, you | ||
| CF | feel at peace here. Obviously, this is some kind of temple to one of | ||
| CF | the gods of ancient Ul. Patterned mosaics cover the floor, and the | ||
| CF | black walls are streaked with swirls of white marble. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | In the northern wall is a strange, circular portal. Beyond, through | ||

| CF | Mystical Cavern | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a vast, mystical cavern. Stalactites shimmer in | ||
| CF | the pale green lamplight, and brightly-colored beds of moss catch your | ||
| CF | eye. Pale glowing mists swirl at your feet. Shadows seem to leap from | ||
| CF | dark crevices in the corner, and breezes, some cold, some hot, nip at | ||
| CF | your cheeks. Magic seems to flow from the very rocks, tingling your | ||
| CF | toes. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Tunnels run north and south, and a narrow crawl climbs up to the | ||
| CF | east. At the west end of the cavern is a freshly whitewashed gazebo. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You see a barbell, a spade, an oar, a wine bottle, a corkscrew, a | ||

| CF | hang over your head. Luckily, enclosed spaces don't bother you - only | ||

| CF | western side of the lake. Perhaps if you strain your eyes, you might | ||
| CF | make out the King's Lake View room on the other side - but no; the lake | ||
| CF | is too wide, and the waters too muddy. Identical passages run | ||
| CF | northeast, northwest, west, and south. To the north is a thick steel | ||
| CF | door, which stands open, revealing a stone staircase leading down. A | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on top of a low, rocky rise somewhere in the | ||
| CF | Beeg'ashell Mountains. Not far south of here is the land of the | ||
| CF | Unnkulians, the dread enemies of your beloved master, the Valley King. | ||
| CF | In fact, you can make out several features from here, further south - | ||
| CF | Lake Draounheer's western shore, to the southeast; the walls of what | ||
| CF | appear to be some sort of monastery; and, on top of the highest of the | ||
| CF | mountains, a giant boulder, perched quite precariously. Unfortunately | ||
| CF | (or perhaps thankfully) the terrain is far too rugged for you to get | ||
| CF | there from here. The only safe path is to the north. There's a | ||
| CF | spreading chestnut tree in the very center of the clearing. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The smith wanders down the trail into the clearing. His eyes fall | ||
| CF | upon the spreading chestnut tree. "Aha!" he cries. "Just what I need | ||
| CF | to fuel my forge!" He swings his axe in one mighty stroke. The tree | ||
| CF | splits in two and falls to the ground, just missing you, and dislodging | ||
| CF | a great eagle that probably made its nest in the highest branches. The | ||
| CF | giant bird squawks once and wings its way north. | ||

| CF | the walls. At the south end of the chamber is a massive metal locker, | ||

| CF | inside the container turns bright mauve. "Dear me," the scientist | ||
| CF | murmurs, scratching his head. "That's not right at all. I must have | ||
| CF | left the froogle-juice back in our own time. Watch the lab, Hobson - | ||
| CF | I'll be back in a moment." The scientist hops on the stationary bike | ||
| CF | and starts pedalling. "And check the reactor, will you?" the | ||
| CF | scientist shouts, waving to you. "One of those damned Unnkulian brats | ||
| CF | tossed his ball down there, and it's fouling up the cooling system." | ||

| CF | humming noise is as loud as ever, and the harsh, metallic odor of | ||
| CF | machinery is ever-present and overpowering. Identical passages run | ||
| CF | northeast and southeast, and a narrower hallway runs southwest. | ||

| CF | southeast and southwest. A strange control panel takes up a good bit | ||
| CF | of the curving northern wall. One unique feature of the chamber is a | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on a metal catwalk that curves around the outside of | ||
| CF | a deep metal shaft. You sigh; you're almost starting to get used to | ||
| CF | high places, and the shaft is hardly as scary as the chasm, or the | ||
| CF | clifftop, or the bell tower. From deep in the bowels of the earth, an | ||
| CF | intense white light shines up the shaft, nearly blinding you. The | ||
| CF | humming noise you heard downstairs is louder here, and heat washes over | ||
| CF | you from below. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Underneath you, through the catwalk, you can see the control room. | ||
| CF | A narrow metal stair leads down to the chamber, and the catwalk curves | ||
| CF | around the shaft to the southwest and southeast. | ||

| CF | Behind the Grate | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The crawl space terminates at a metal grate, suspended above what | ||
| CF | appears to be a meeting-chamber. You can't really see through the | ||
| CF | grate too well; the holes are too close together. From the chamber | ||
| CF | below, you hear gruff, demonic voices arguing, and see monstrous shapes | ||
| CF | moving around. You could squeeze back through the crawl space to the | ||
| CF | north, or possibly get through the grate. | ||

| CF | Crawl Space | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're worming your way through a narrow crawl space that runs to | ||
| CF | the northeast and south. The floor underneath your hands and knees is | ||
| CF | warm, and a gentle humming sound reverberates through the metal | ||
| CF | passage. There must be a heating duct right underneath you, running | ||
| CF | toward the south. Luckily, you're only afraid of heights and not | ||
| CF | enclosed spaces or you'd be quite distressed; it's a tight fit for a | ||
| CF | burly Valley Warrior. From the south, you can hear gruff, demonic | ||
| CF | voices engaged in argument. | ||

| CF | anything, the heat's more intense here, and the light is quite | ||
| CF | brilliant. The catwalk curves around to the southwest and northwest. | ||
| CF | Below, through grates in the floor, you can see what are probably | ||

| CF | On the Catwalks | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on a metal catwalk that curves around the outside of | ||
| CF | a deep metal shaft. From deep in the bowels of the earth, an intense | ||
| CF | white light shines up the shaft, nearly blinding you. The humming | ||
| CF | noise you heard downstairs is louder here, and heat washes over you | ||
| CF | from below. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Underneath you, through the catwalk, you can see the control room. | ||
| CF | A narrow metal stair leads down to the chamber, and the catwalk curves | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | This chamber looks much like the round room at the foot of the | ||
| CF | stairs - iron walls and two identical passages, this time to the | ||
| CF | southeast and southwest. A strange control panel takes up a good bit | ||
| CF | of the curving northern wall. One unique feature of the chamber is a | ||
| CF | winding spiral stair in the center of the room that climbs up into | ||
| CF | darkness. Dim lights in the wall above the control panel illuminate | ||
| CF | the chamber in a ruddy glow. | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a strange round chamber. The walls here are | ||
| CF | plated with iron, and a dank, oily stench fills the humid air. | ||
| CF | Identical, low hallways run northwest and southwest. A wider tunnel | ||
| CF | runs south; that route is more rocky and looks like a natural passage. | ||
| CF | A dim red glow is faintly visible to the south. From somewhere far | ||
| CF | away, a low humming noise reaches your ears, but you can't make out | ||
| CF | what it is from here. A dark stone stair climbs up to the east. | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a carved square chamber with an arched roof. | ||
| CF | Stairs climb up to the northwest, and bright sunlight filters down, | ||
| CF | bathing the room in a pale yellow glow. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | To the west, a great iron door has been opened, revealing a damp, | ||
| CF | dark passage plunging deeper into the earth. Passages run north and | ||

| CF | Mountain Pass | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing just northwest of a dark cave, somewhere in the | ||
| CF | Beeg'ashell Mountains. Inside the cave entrance, you can just make out | ||
| CF | a set of stone stairs sloping down, back into the heart of the | ||
| CF | mountains. Rough patches of crabgrass struggle for life here and | ||
| CF | there, poking through cracks in the rocky mountain soil. A trail | ||
| CF | climbs up to the west, while another slopes down to the north. A | ||
| CF | third, level trail leads due south. It's quite cold here, and a chill | ||
| CF | wind whips across the rocky hills. The cave entrance is back to the | ||
| CF | southeast. | ||

| CF | below you, mist swirls over sharp rocks. You're trying desperately to | ||
| CF | keep your vertigo in check, and having some success; staying a good | ||
| CF | fifteen feet back from the edge helps a lot. Across the gorge you can | ||
| CF | just make out a slender stone tower rising from a rocky mountain-top - | ||
| CF | but of course, you can't get there from here. If only you had an Acme | ||
| CF | Brij Kreeaytor! The only obvious exit is the trail back to the east; | ||
| CF | other directions appear too rocky to travel. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Surely, the fair Amanda could not have crossed this great gash in | ||
| CF | the earth. Perhaps your quest lies elsewhere. A gigantic eagle is | ||
| CF | circling the gorge. He's probably looking for something to eat. | ||

| CF | berries it saw earlier. It finds them, and gobbles them down. Sated, | ||

| CF | land here is barren and rocky, and would make for quite difficult | ||
| CF | travelling. A trail follows the gorge to the northeast, climbing | ||
| CF | slowly through the snow-capped mountains. High above you to the north, | ||
| CF | you can just make out a tall stone tower, shrouded in mist. Could it | ||
| CF | be the fabled tower of the Wizard of Ul, Wowsa Willy? [15] | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | While it's clearly possible to cross the gorge, it seems doubtful | ||
| CF | that Amanda arrived here the same way you did. Full exploration of | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a clearing high in the mountains. It's quite | ||
| CF | cold here; patches of snow cover dying lichens, and a brisk wind | ||
| CF | whipping across the mountain-tops chills you to the bone. There's | ||
| CF | quite a view from here; to the east, you can see the gorge you flew | ||
| CF | across, and, a bit further down, you can just make out the waters of | ||
| CF | Lake Draounheer. North of here, down the mountains, you can hear what | ||
| CF | must be a rushing river, but you can't see it from where you are | ||
| CF | standing. To the west stands a crumbling stone tower, still imposing | ||
| CF | but definitely a ruin. A trail leads down to the gorge to the | ||
| CF | southwest. All other directions are much too rocky or steep to travel. | ||

| CF | below. Still, the room is quite gloomy, and everything is shrouded in | ||
| CF | shadow. The ladder continues up and down. A writing-desk sits in the | ||
| CF | very center of the chamber. A silver casket has been pushed against | ||
| CF | one wall. | ||

| CF | The jar is rather small. Raised letters on the side read "Wowsa | ||

| CF | aren't any instructions. In the glass jar you see some clear liquid. | ||

| CF | rippling muscles. It outweighs the Valley King's new Acme Jenerik | ||
| CF | Advenchur Beest by a good half-ton. Emblazoned in flaming letters | ||

| CF | there, poking through cracks in the rocky mountain soil. A trail | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing on a metal catwalk that curves around the outside of | ||
| CF | a deep metal shaft. From deep in the bowels of the earth, an intense | ||
| CF | white light shines up the shaft, nearly blinding you. The humming | ||
| CF | noise you heard downstairs is louder here, and heat washes over you | ||
| CF | from below. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Underneath you, through the catwalk, you can see the control room. | ||

| CF | You're standing on a metal catwalk that curves around the outside of | ||
| CF | a deep metal shaft. From deep in the bowels of the earth, an intense | ||
| CF | white light shines up the shaft, nearly blinding you. The humming | ||
| CF | noise you heard downstairs is louder here, and heat washes over you | ||
| CF | from below. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Underneath you, through the catwalk, you can see the control room. | ||
| CF | A narrow metal stair leads down to the chamber, and the catwalk curves | ||
| CF | around the shaft to the southwest and southeast. | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a strange round chamber. The walls here are | ||
| CF | plated with iron, and a dank, oily stench fills the humid air. | ||
| CF | Identical, low hallways run northwest and southwest. A wider tunnel | ||
| CF | runs south; that route is more rocky and looks like a natural passage. | ||
| CF | A dim red glow is faintly visible to the south. From somewhere far | ||

| CF | black marble lined with red streaks; your boots clatter on the hard | ||
| CF | stone. The walls are carved wood, probably teak and oak. The northern | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing about halfway down a long north-south hall. Specks | ||
| CF | of red minerals in the black marble floor catch the pale green | ||
| CF | lamplight, glinting eerily. A growing and ever-present feeling of evil | ||
| CF | permeates the hall, seeming to throb with diabolical intensity. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Further down the hall to the south, you can just make out a dim | ||

| CF | the shape of a gigantic snaggletoothed mouth. It's quite a | ||
| CF | disconcerting image, especially since beyond the doorway is only | ||
| CF | darkness. A narrow hallway runs west, and a wooden door to the east is | ||
| CF | closed. From the west, you can see a faint reddish glow and you can | ||
| CF | hear gruff, demonic voices arguing. You could also travel up the | ||

| CF | Demonic Meeting Hall | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The walls of this rectangular chamber are hung with red and black | ||
| CF | curtains, depicting the triumph of nasty Unnkulians over pitiful, | ||
| CF | scraggly Valley Warriors. The floor is bone white marble streaked with | ||
| CF | blood-red minerals, iron ore and granite. A giant pentacle-shaped | ||
| CF | table stands in the very center of the chamber. There's what appears | ||
| CF | to be a heating duct at the very top of the chamber in the northern | ||
| CF | wall. A dim glow from strange panels in the ceiling illuminates the | ||
| CF | room with a ruddy glow. The only exit is back to the east. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Squatting around the table are five monstrous demons. You recognize | ||
| CF | them from the paintings of Valley artists - the demon lords of Unnkul! | ||
| CF | On the right, Ug'lee Ist, the six-headed Warlord, commander of the | ||
| CF | military demons. To the left, Gher'ee Phahl-wil, the Bishop of the | ||
| CF | false prophets of Unnkul. Between them, the other three lords, all | ||
| CF | unbearably evil, all unbearably powerful - all staring at you. The | ||
| CF | Demon Wizard Dug'heh-neng leers in your direction, stroking the | ||
| CF | scraggly hairs on his upper lip. "The ways of my Magic are most | ||
| CF | Unnkul," he growls, gesturing with a slender claw. Suddenly your | ||
| CF | insides are on the outside - | ||

| CF | Long Hall North | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing at the north end of a long, wide hall. The floor is | ||
| CF | black marble lined with red streaks; your boots clatter on the hard | ||
| CF | stone. The walls are carved wood, probably teak and oak. The northern | ||
| CF | wall curves outward and lined with iron. Two identical passages run | ||
| CF | northeast and northwest. You could also travel south down the hall. | ||

| CF | Round Room | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a strange round chamber. The walls here are | ||
| CF | plated with iron, and a dank, oily stench fills the humid air. | ||
| CF | Identical, low hallways run northwest and southwest. A wider tunnel | ||
| CF | runs south; that route is more rocky and looks like a natural passage. | ||
| CF | A dim red glow is faintly visible to the south. From somewhere far | ||
| CF | away, a low humming noise reaches your ears, but you can't make out | ||
| CF | what it is from here. A dark stone stair climbs up to the east. | ||
| CF | | ||

| CF | Control Station | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | This chamber looks much like the round room at the foot of the | ||
| CF | stairs - iron walls and two identical passages, this time to the | ||
| CF | southeast and southwest. A strange control panel takes up a good bit | ||
| CF | of the curving northern wall. One unique feature of the chamber is a | ||
| CF | winding spiral stair in the center of the room that climbs up into | ||
| CF | darkness. Dim lights in the wall above the control panel illuminate | ||
| CF | the chamber in a ruddy glow. | ||
| CF | | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "x activation" | ||
| CF | Tiny letters on one side of the cube read "Unnkulian Activation | ||
| CF | Death-Cube." The cube is jet black, and warm in your hand. It | ||
| CF | measures about an inch on a side. [19] | ||

| CF | You're standing on a metal catwalk that curves around the outside of | ||
| CF | a deep metal shaft. From deep in the bowels of the earth, an intense | ||
| CF | white light shines up the shaft, nearly blinding you. The humming | ||
| CF | noise you heard downstairs is louder here, and heat washes over you | ||
| CF | from below. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Underneath you, through the catwalk, you can see the control room. | ||

| CF | suppose you could enter the shaft if you were feeling suicidal. | ||

| CF | walls are all smooth and mirrored. Suddenly, you see water below you, | ||
| CF | and take a deep breath. You hit the surface hard, very hard, and wince | ||
| CF | with pain. Standing up, you find yourself - | ||

| CF | Reactor Chamber | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're splashing around in about two feet of water in a spherical | ||
| CF | chamber at the base of a deep shaft. The water is clear, but quite | ||
| CF | warm. A short, thick rod of dull metal extends up from the center of | ||
| CF | the floor. To the west is an open doorway, just above the water line. | ||
| CF | There's no other exit from this chamber; you certainly can't climb the | ||
| CF | sheer walls of the shaft. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | > | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "get rod" | ||
| CF | When you grasp the top of the rod, a horrible burning sensation runs up | ||
| CF | your arm, and you're forced to release it. | ||

| DavidW says, "It's probably uranium." | ||
| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "w" | ||
| CF | As you step in the door, it seals behind you. Suddenly, it feels like | ||
| CF | the floor has dropped out from under you, and you sense yourself moving | ||
| CF | rapidly upward. | ||

| CF | Square Room | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing in a very small square chamber. The walls and floor | ||
| CF | are padded black carpeting, and the ceiling is a dimly glowing panel. | ||

| Knight_Otu says (to ClubFloyd), "z" | ||

| CF | You're standing at the north end of a long, wide hall. The floor is | ||
| CF | black marble lined with red streaks; your boots clatter on the hard | ||
| CF | stone. The walls are carved wood, probably teak and oak. The northern | ||
| CF | wall curves outward and lined with iron. Two identical passages run | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | You're standing about halfway down a long north-south hall. Specks | ||
| CF | of red minerals in the black marble floor catch the pale green | ||
| CF | lamplight, glinting eerily. A growing and ever-present feeling of evil | ||
| CF | permeates the hall, seeming to throb with diabolical intensity. | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | The hall terminates before a great open doorway to the south. The | ||
| CF | doorway is finished in solid silver streaked with ebony, and carved in | ||
| CF | the shape of a gigantic snaggletoothed mouth. It's quite a | ||
| CF | disconcerting image, especially since beyond the doorway is only | ||
| CF | darkness. A narrow hallway runs west, and a wooden door to the east is | ||
| CF | open. You could also travel up the hallway to the north. | ||

| CF | ceiling is now dark. Passages run west and south. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | A group of small children is sitting on the floor here, playing with | ||
| CF | a collection of toys. They're all rather dangerous-looking for such | ||

| CF | in sight, and the room is completely empty. A passage runs north. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Deep in your bones, you feel that this must be the Inner Nursery of | ||
| CF | which the demons spoke. Where is the fair Amanda? There's no sign of | ||
| CF | her, but you must be nearing the end of your quest. [20] | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | There's a small boy here, looking a bit lost and forlorn. His gaze | ||
| CF | disturbs you; the child seems palpably evil. "Want toy," he mutters. | ||

| CF | You throw the heavy yellow ball at the boy. Clumsily, the child tries | ||
| CF | to catch it, but since you threw it at him rather than to him, he | ||
| CF | fails. The ball strikes him on the head with an ominous thump. The | ||
| CF | boy shrieks, a horrible, grating sound. It's only a few seconds before | ||
| CF | the demon guards respond - | ||
| CF | | ||

| CF | fills the air as the kid howls, never once pausing for breath. It's | ||

| CF | of his mitt with a wet slurping sound. Cheez striking cheez - it's all | ||
| CF | you can do to keep from tossing your lunch. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The boy lifts the ball to his mouth and takes a huge bite. A wicked | ||
| CF | smile crosses his face. "Yum," he snarls. Are his teeth pointed? And | ||
| CF | how can such a small boy look so unbelievably evil? Suddenly, the | ||
| CF | child races to the eastern wall and twists a knob of rock that you | ||
| CF | never would have found yourself. A section of the wall slides open, | ||
| CF | revealing a chamber beyond, and the child races through. "Where have | ||
| CF | you been, you little dickens!" you hear a motherly voice scold. With | ||
| CF | a start, you recognize the voice - the fair Lady Amanda! Is this the | ||

| CF | The Search Ends... | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | *** Your score has just gone up. *** | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You enter what appears to be a bedroom of some kind. Toys are littered | ||
| CF | all over the floor, and expensive paintings line the walls. And then | ||
| CF | you see her - the Lady Amanda! She's seated in a rocking chair, | ||
| CF | holding the strange, sinister child on her lap. She looks up as you | ||
| CF | enter. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | "Welcome, Warrior," she says, her voice smooth and low. "I knew my | ||
| CF | love would send one after me. I did not imagine the Warrior he sent | ||
| CF | would ever find this place; I had hoped I had covered my tracks well." | ||
| CF | She sighs, smoothing the child's hair. "You must be wondering why I am | ||
| CF | here." | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You nod, speechless. What can she be doing here? | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | "This child," Amanda begins, "Is the product of an unholy union | ||
| CF | between a female Demon of Unnkul and - don't look so surprised - that | ||
| CF | annoying little Acme salesman from the Golden Dragon Inn. He is the | ||
| CF | product of evil and cheeziness, and will grow up to be a most dreaded | ||
| CF | Unnkulian Warrior, a fearsome tool of evil." | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | "So why - " you begin. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | "Why am I here?" the Lady Amanda finishes, smiling. Slowly, her | ||
| CF | smile fades. "The child needs mothering. His demon parent is hardly | ||
| CF | suitable. And, yes, he must grow up - he has a purpose in this world. | ||
| CF | My beloved, and your liege, the Valley King, needs a worthy opponent. | ||
| CF | I love him, but he and his people have lost the ways of Duhdha. The | ||
| CF | Unnkulians alone cannot match his might, and provide him with no | ||
| CF | challenge, not even with that strange old man from the future helping | ||
| CF | them. But this child, this fusion of Acme and Unnkulia - he is a | ||
| CF | worthy opponent for your liege." | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | You open your mouth to respond, then close it again. Indeed, you | ||
| CF | think, she's right. It is as Duhdha said - the duality of the universe | ||
| CF | must be maintained. Good cannot exist without evil - and Kuulness | ||
| CF | cannot exist without Unnkul. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | "But won't the child be too powerful?" you ask. "Will those of | ||
| CF | Kuulness be able to withstand a fusion of Acme and Unnkul? When the | ||
| CF | child grows, will there still be brave souls to fight against him?" | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Amanda shrugs. "It is in your hands, Warrior," she says. "You | ||
| CF | decide. You can kill the child now, or let him live. But slay him, | ||
| CF | and the Valley King's people will surely turn to evil, and never seek | ||
| CF | Duhdha again." | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | There is but one choice. Amanda shows you the way out, leading you | ||
| CF | past the demon guards. At the Entrance to Unnkulia, you bid the lady | ||
| CF | farewell, wondering what you'll say to the Valley King. Yes, you have | ||
| CF | found Amanda - but you cannot bring her back with you. She has a | ||
| CF | purpose, and must remain. But this journey has not been a waste of | ||
| CF | time. You've received enlightenment, and even lost your fear of | ||
| CF | heights. Now you understand the ways of Duhdha. You only wish you | ||
| CF | could see into the future, and discover what happens to Amanda, and | ||
| CF | this strange child born of evil. | ||

| DavidW says, "AND IT'S OVER" | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "It seemed pretty clear that Amanda was willingly in this place beforehand." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "But the exact details were a surprise." | ||
| DavidW says, "I don't think I grasped that." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "Whenever there were tracks, they seemed to be alone, rather that with those of a kidnapper, and the way the demons talked about Amanda also seemed less like they were talking about a prisoner." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "And yes, it's finally over." | ||
| DavidW asks, "Wonder what the salesman would say about running away from his kid?" | ||
| DavidW says, "Anyway, thank you so much for playing and getting us to the end of this." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "I don't think the salesman knows about the kid, if I recall the start of Salesman correctly." | ||
| DavidW says, "oh" | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "Not sure though." | ||
| DavidW says, "I don't remember the rest of the saga all that well." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "I'm sad that we had to resort to hints, but some of the stuff really was unfair." | ||
| DavidW says, "mmhm" | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "I'M LOOKING AT YOU, GHOST SMITH." | ||
| DavidW says, "The brick figured in four puzzles and the sword in zero." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "Obviously, we're a mason, not a warrior, despite the protagonist's protests." | ||
| DavidW says, "We never used the pillow or knife either. We never got Poppa Ul's coffin open." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "Hm. Yeah." | ||
| DavidW asks, "And the coin press... perhaps that was only there because it's used in another game?" | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "Possibly. It is mentioned that the lighthouse was in another game at least." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "From the start of Salesman: "And you certainly didn't expect those demons to waylay you en route - and you certainly didn't foresee the horrors they'd subject you to in their caverns before releasing you. (Shudder - you don't even like remembering. Perhaps that's the subject of another game...) And you really didn't expect to have to work out of the Golden Dragon Inn. And to top it all off, a bad-tempered warrior just returned a can of Acme Snayk Rhepellant and asked for his money back."" | ||
| DavidW says, "And we didn't need the trowel at all. The shovel was only needed twice." | ||
| DavidW says, "ah" | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "Also, a bit later - "Suddenly, a familiar-looking Valley Warrior walks up the path to the southwest. The warrior gazes at you through sorrowful eyes. "You poor fellow," he murmurs. "I've just completed 'Unnkulia Zero,' and the things I found out about you - hoo boy!" He smiles a sympathetic smile. "Here. I've completed my quest. Maybe this stuff can help." He tosses you a pickaxe and a yellow ball, which you clumsily catch. "Take care of yourself." With that, the warrior strides northward, toward the great cities."" | ||
| DavidW says, "I guess we need to think of a new game to play next week. And warn Jacqueline that it will be another game." | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "Maybe not let me choose again." | ||
