Said Ged, 'I do not know, for the interconnections of its chambers are
most intricate. Perhaps we should ask Tedd, the Zen Master of Aber.'
So they did.
Said Ged, 'Oh wise and most learned Tedd, how can one find one's way
through the treacherous maze of the catacombs?'
Said Tedd, ' One can't. Send Ned.'
And suddenly Cedric and Ged were most pleased, for Tedd had shown them

The Crypt^
You are in a small room, standing before the entrance to a vast and ancient
crypt. Low moaning sounds echo from within the catacombs before you, sending
chills up your spine.
An archway, its keystone carved in the shape of a human skull, leads south
into darkness, while cool air blows in from the relative safety of the church
above.

The Catacombs^
You are standing in a small, subterranean chamber. Set into the walls at
regular intervals are deep recesses, within which lie the stone tombs of a
generation long since departed. A gentle breeze blows in from the passage to
the north, while dark hallways lead south, east, and west.
A spiral staircase fills one corner of the room.

"Hope" ...

the surface above.

You are in a large, oval-shaped chamber. Tapestries, depicting scenes of
single combat, hang from the roof of the chamber, which is high overhead. A
vast array of weapons and armor, from various ages, adorn the walls all about
you. The arena is ringed with torches, burning silently.
There is an archway leading south.
There is a heavy wooden door, made of cedar and overlayed with gold, at the
northern end of the Hall.

The Final Resting Place^
You are in a rectangular hall, with smooth stone walls, and a marble floor.
An overwhelming sense of satisfaction fills the air in this room. Twelve
marble pillars line the eastern and western walls of the chamber.
At the northern end of the hall is a dais, made from a single round slab of
pure gold. There is a crystal pedestal in the center of the dais. To the
south is a heavy wooden door, made of cedar and overlayed with gold.
