On either side of you the mountains tower high above the pass, their peaks veiled in clouds. At one point, however, the cliff is nowhere near as steep and a fair way up a single window has been cut, looking out across the snows. To the east a snowy path leads among the trees. ^ /* 2 */ blizzard n:HAVEN@HAVEN e:crevasse s:pass w:gate; lflags { Outdoors Realtime Cold } Blizzard^ You are lost in a blizzard, almost blinded by the driving snows. The howling icy wind sends huge clouds of snow whistling across the plain totally obscuring your view. The snows extend in all directions save north, where a lighted inn offers warmth, food, and shelter from the elements. ^ /* 3 */ gate w:ENTRY@NEWBIE n:DARK@VALLEY e:HAVEN@HAVEN s:blizzard; lflags { Cold Outdoors Realtime } Gate of Sorcerers^ You are outside The Gate of Sorcerers. Its mighty pillars tower up around you, shielding you from the worst of the snow that is falling and from some of the icy winds. The ancient arched gateway between the pillars leads north into a wide magically lit passage which disappears into the roots of the earth. You may enter the gate to the north, a lighted inn to the east, or trudge south into the snows. ^ /* 4 */ crevasse n:blizzard s:blizzard w:blizzard d:bottom; lflags { RealTime } Crevasse^ You are standing on the edge of a deep crevasse looking down into darkness. Heavy snow is falling all around you partially hiding the distant mountains in clouds of whiteness. The snows extend in all direction save east, where the crevasse bars the route. You could clamber down into the crevasse but would have great problems in getting back out of it. ^ /* 5 */ bottom e:elemental; lflags { RealTime } Crevasse Bottom^ You are at the bottom of the crevasse. Daylight, and a great deal of snow, comes through the top of the crevasse. A single man-made passage leads east into a strange temple. ^ /* 6 */ elemental w:bottom; lflags { RealTime } Elemental Temple^ You are in the Temple Of The Elements, surrounded by decorations depicting Earth, Air, Fire and Water. This strange icy place gives off a feeling of unbalance and growing evil. There is a blinking construction sign here. ^ /* 7 */ pass2 n:pass s:n_pass w:S_CAVE@ICECAVE; lflags { Cold Outdoors Realtime } The Pass^ You are following the pass as it runs north-south through the mountains. There is a small cave mouth to the west. ^ /* 8 */ n_pass n:pass2 s:pass3; lflags { Cold Outdoors Realtime } Narrow Pass^ You are trudging along a gloomy narrow pass pelted with snow while the icy wind feels like daggers stabbing into your unprotected flesh. The pass continues north and south. ^ /* 9 */ pass3 n:n_pass e:ravine s:s_pass; lflags { Cold Outdoors Realtime } The Pass^ You are trudging along the pass. The wind here whips around in a circular pattern, almost veiling a narrow ravine leading eastwards. The pass continues north and south. ^ /* 10 */ ravine e:snow_temple w:pass3; lflags { Cold Outdoors Realtime } Ravine^ You are on a path climbing up a narrow ravine towards the crumbling remains of a snow shrouded temple. ^ /* 11 */ snow_temple w:ravine; lflags { Cold Outdoors Realtime } Snow Temple^ You are in the snowy ruins of an ancient temple. The view from here is stunning and very picturesque but the lashing snow and icy wind are enough to dissuade you from sightseeing. ^ /* 12 */ s_pass n:pass3 s:e_pass; lflags { Cold Outdoors Realtime } Southern Pass^ You are trudging down the pass. The towering mountains, their heads cloaked in snow, seem to leer down at you as your feet crunch into the fresh, deep and rather cold snow. The pass continues north and south. ^ /* 13 */ e_pass n:s_pass e:valley w:PATH1@ORCHOLD u:PATH1@ORCHOLD; lflags { Outdoors Realtime } The End Of The Pass^ You are at the southern end of the pass. The snow gives way rapidly to a pleasant autumn sun, its gentle beams filling the whole vista with a shimmering beautiful golden hue. Tracks lead North, and East. ^ /* 14 */ valley n:GROVE@OAKTREE e:bridge s:woods w:e_pass; lflags { Outdoors Realtime } The Valley^ You are in a green and fair valley amidst the gently murmuring oaks. The sun shines gently through the trees sending dancing, golden beams rippling across the shadowy grass while midges dance between the branches. One particularly large oak tree rises up to the north. ^ /* 15 */ bridge e:GREEN@VILLAGE s:stream w:valley; lflags { Outdoors Realtime } The Humpbacked Bridge^ You are standing on a crumbling humpbacked bridge looking over the side down onto a wide but shallow stream. The sun sparkles gently off the ripples as the stream passes across pebbles and rocks and the fish swim between them. You hear the faint roar of a waterfall somewhere downstream. You can go east or west across the bridge or follow the stream southwards. ^ /* 16 */ woods n:valley e:waterfall s:shady w:MPATH@VALLEY; lflags { Outdoors Realtime } In The Woods^ You are in the woods. The great trees cast green shadows across the flowers and undergrowth as they sway peacefully in the wind. You can walk in any direction. ^ /* 17 */ waterfall e:r_land n:PATH@FEMNAZ s:grassy w:woods; lflags { Outdoors Realtime } The Waterfall^ You are in a secluded clearing beside a waterfall which sprays cool water gently over you. Several paths diverge here, leading south, east and west. ^ /* 18 */ r_land n:GREEN@VILLAGE e:1@QUARRY w:waterfall; lflags { Outdoors Realtime } Rough Land^ You are on a patch of rough land to the south of the village. To the east is an old, seemingly deserted quarry. Other paths lead north and west. ^ /* 19 */ woods2 n:woods3 e:woods3 s:woods3; lflags { Outdoors Realtime } The Woods^ You are in the woods listening to the trees as they rustle in the wind. There are no visible tracks here, but you could travel through the woods in any direction, save to the west where thick holly bushes block the route. ^ /* 20 */ woods3 n:GREEN@VILLAGE e:woods3 s:woods3 w:woods2; lflags { Outdoors Realtime } The Woods^ You are in the woods, walking amongst the huge trunks watching the birds as they flit from branch to branch, filling the air with their lively chirping calls. ^ /* 21 */ shady n:woods s:1@MOUNTAIN; lflags { Outdoors Realtime } Shady Clearing^ You are in a shady clearing surrounded by proud and mighty oaks. The oaks are surrounded by hollies and thick bushes, while creepers and weeds girdle their ancient trunks. The only route from the clearing is a single path winding north, worn into a deep rut by the passing of endless footsteps. ^ /* 22 */ grassy n:waterfall; lflags { Outdoors Realtime } Grassy Clearing^ You are in a grassy clearing beside a crystal clear, spring-fed pool that reflects the swaying trees above. A sandy path leads north alongside the burbling stream. ^ /* 23 */ stream n:bridge w:F6@FOREST; lflags { Outdoors Realtime } Stream Bank^ You stand on a quiet grassy stream bank. The water burbles gently past you, shaded by the thick trees and bushes which grow along the bank. Towering oaks cast dark shimmering shadows across the almost mirror-like rippling water which flickers in the light. The undergrowth blocks any way southwards along the stream, but thins out to the north and west where paths lead off. ^
