Several broken twigs lay scattered on the rotten earth, crackling as

you to slip across the ground here and there, and you gasp with a

the ghoulish creatures which burrow through the grounds, searching for
fresh new corpses that lay buried inside their wooden boxes like well-

buried by uncaring gravediggers, many corpses now protrude from the earth,
unwilling to accept their own fatalities, grotesquely twisted and mangled
by savage animals feeding upon their flesh. Others lay in their deathbeds
only to have their earthly blankets clawed away by grave robbers, leaving
their broken coffin lids cracked and broken away. Several statues, their

a brown, dead shroud of weeds. The broken footstone, sunken deep into
the earth, crumbles to the touch as you reach down to its inscription.
Sunken patches of ground cover the plot, causing you to wend and move
precariously through the fog - only to stop in horror as you notice an
unburied hand, rotted away to its skeletal bones, clutching toward your
leg as if to pull you deep under the earth to a horrible death. Tearing
yourself from its grasp, you move quickly forward in hopes that you will
soon be away from this terrifying nightmare.

Name The Coffin of Thomas~
Sector city~
Flags dark~
Desc Wandering through the darkness, your heart jumps as you find an old
pine box laying broken wide open on the ground before you. Shattered and
splintered, the lid lies strewn in several pieces, left to rot in the cold
rains like a pile of moldy garbage disposed by a vagrant. Looking into the
pine box, you shriek in horror to find that the box is used as a coffin,
its decomposing corpse still rests inside in a deathly sleep, never to
awaken. Along one side of the box, a single cross lies scorched into the
wood, the name 'Thomas' still barely legible beneath it despite many tool-
markings left by countless thieves scavaging for anything of value. A
single dead and decaying rose rests in Thomas' hands, tied carefully with
a faded red ribbon which attaches a solemn note.

Name A Small Grove of Forgotten Trees~
Sector forest~
Flags dark~
Desc Along the southern half of the graveyard, several trees line the area,
standing barely upright with their knotted trunks marred by different animals
sharpening their claws against the rotting bark. Thick vines of green and
brown ivy creep up the sides of some trees, strangling their crooked branches
that no longer bloom with leaves into a skeletal submission. Near the base of
another tree, a dirty brown headstone lies covered with small chunks of mud-
covered rubble crumbling slowly away into the moldy earth. Though most of the
grave sites can be found to the north, a few graves lay within this grove,
long forgotten as the winds and the rains howl throughout the cemetary.
