Small Meadow~
You stand in a small meadow outside of Chiiron.  To the east, the town

walls rise above your head, protecting the inhabitants from the perils

which lurk outside the gates.  A shallow trickle of a stream flows out of

the woods to the northeast, heading off to the southeast.  Off to the

south, you see a town gate.

Meadow~
You stand in a small grassy meadow located between the town wall to the

east and a thickly wooded stream to the west.  You presume that Chiiron's

defenders keep this area clear to guard the approaches to the town.

Near the Forest's Edge~
The trees creep in more closely here, approaching from the west toward

the battlements of Chiiron, which stand off to the east.  A few large

stones are scattered about the area here, among the grass, too large to

move.

By the Forest's Edge~
You are almost in the woods here, with branches overhanging the grass. 

Tall oaks and elms crowd the area to the north, with thick bushes growing

in the shadows beneath their thick boughs.  To the southeast, you spy a

stout watch tower atop the town wall, from which Chiiron's defenders may

observe happenings in the area.

Near the Forest's Edge~
To the north, oaks line the edge of the small field in which you stand,

while off to the south, you eye follows the course of the town wall of

Chiiron.  A guard tower, posted at the corner of the town wall, stands

high overhead, providing those within with a fine vantage point from

which to view the surrounding area.

Small Clearing~
You stand in a small clearing near the walls of Chiiron.  Several large

rocks have been gathered in a semicircle, and you notice the remains of a

fire near the center of the area.  A small path winds its way back to the

east, while a thick forest grows north of here.

Meadow Near Chiiron~
You stand in a small, meadow beneath the walls of Chiiron.  A narrow,

dusty path runs east and west here, making an uneven course through the

grassy area.  To the north, a thick forest looms quite close at hand. 

You see a gate in the wall to the east.

Near a Forest~
You stand in a meadow, near a forest.  The grass here is almost

waist-high, and the ground is slightly damp; you can see many animal

tracks criss-crossing the ground beneath your feet.  To the north, a

steep cliff rises above your head, preventing passage.  Far to the south,

you see the town wall of Chiiron, while to the east you spy a more rocky

area.

Foot of a Small Hill~
A small hill rises gently to the north, a well-worn dirt path winding

through the grasses.  Just to your south the high wall of Chiiron looms,

its heavy stones bespeaking a strong defense.  Small bushes dot the area,

growing amidst the short grass.  To your northeast you see a small wooden

bridge.

Near the Town Wall~
A lone stone tower rises up above you to the south, high above the rest

of the town wall, ever vigilant in the defense of Chiiron.  The grass

here is tall and thick, but here and there you see a few marks which

indicate that the town's inhabitants bring their animals here to graze. 

You spy a wooden bridge to the north, which crosses a small stream which

flows by from north to the east of here.

Meadow Near Chiiron~
Tall grass billows slowly in the breeze here, in this open meadow a short

distance outside of Chiiron.  To the east, a tower rises above you, while

in the distance to the northeast you think you can make out the thick

stone form of a gatehouse.  A small stream bisects the meadow, running

from north to southwest, where it disappears around the curve of a wooded

hill.  A curtain of dark trees looms off to the west.

Meadow Near Chiiron~
The walls of Chiiron stand off to the east, running north and south.  An

open meadow stands adjacent to the fortifications, the sightlines kept

clear by the villagers for matters of security.  To the west, the ground

gradually rises and groups of trees thicken until the hillsides are

covered in a dense green canopy.  You hear the gurgle of a small stream

as it flows by you, off somewhere to the west or north of here.

fortifications.  To the west, a few bushes and spits of particularly

rough ground rise into an ever-thickening wood.

Wooded Hill~
A few large rocks mark this otherwise nondescript wooded hilltop, their

slate gray forms embedded in the earth by some ancient terrestrial

upheaval.  To the north, the ground continues to be hilly, while to the

west the woods grow progressively more dense.  Down a slight slope to the

east is an open meadow, and to the east of that meadow you spy the walls

of Chiiron, looming in the distance.

Meadow Near Chiiron~

Dense Woods~
The uneven ground here is covered in short grass and moss, while overhead

a unformly green canopy shields the forest floor from the sky.  Spindly

branches reach out like fingers to the sky, blocking out the light and

wind, keeping the air here cool and damp.  A small trickling stream flows

from northeast to southwest, between aged roots and rocks, drifting ever

deeper into the woods.

of Chiiron in the distance.

southern and western portions of your surroundings.  It is clear that the

forest here is creeping slowly toward the cleared band of grass which

surrounds the village of Chiiron, relentless in its desire to claim what

once was its own.

gurgle of a brook somewhere in the distance, screened by the trees.

A Thick Forest of Oaks and Elms~
You stand amidst a massive line of oaks and elms which marks the edge of

the forest.  Small bushes crowd around you underfoot, while to the south

the trees and shrubbery are thinner.  The same is true to the north,

where tall blades of grass line what appears to be a small pond.  High

overhead in a branch of an oak, a small robin nests on a few of her eggs.

The South Shore of a Duck Pond~
Tall, wide-leafed blades of grass grow high around you, unmolested by the

fauna of the area.  Clovers grow in clumps nearby beside a few sunflowers. 

To the south a line of trees marks the edge of a forest, the nearly

impenetrable wall of oaks and elms stretching to the east and west around

a small pond to the north.  The greenish water's south shore here is

lined with wet, slimy rocks which looks extremely slippery and yet should

not be too hard to cross.

~
as name suggests, south end of a duck/frog/goose/etc pond.

South of a Duck Pond~
Tall cattails and long, wide-leafed reeds form a growing, yet crossable

barrier around the pond to the north.  Behind the reeds the sounds of

frogs, ducks, and geese echo across the water.  Tall oaks and elms rise

high into the sky to the south, with myriad bushes browing underfoot.  A

slight trail through the tall grass around the pond leads east and west.

Faint trails lead through tall, wide-leafed grass to the north and west

around the arching shore of a small duckpond.  A small hole, just large

enough for a human to squeeze into, lies dug into the ground about

halfway between the pond and the treeline which roughly follows it to the

east and south.

This small section of tall, wide-leafed grass is framed by the sloping

treeline to the north and east and a small pond to the south and west. 

The echos of waterfowl calls and the splashes of frogs leaping into the

water reach your ears, along with the sound of the wind whistling across

the cattails and howling over the large, round reeds.

wide leaves of grass grow all around over a few scattered patches of

clover, and a slightly beaten path leads through the grass and around the

pond to the east and west.  The treeline to the north is broken somewhat

here, and a small trail leads north onto the edge of a meadow.

A natural ramp of flat stones leads south and down into the cool waters

of the pond, its shore lined with reeds and cattails.  The tall,

wide-leafed grass is interspersed here and there with a few patches of

clover which bear the signs of rabbit nibbling.  A faint path leads

through the grass along the pond's curving shore to the east and west,

also following roughly a line of dense trees to the north.

The telltale signs of a deer's passage have been left crudely along a

faint trail through the tall, wide-leafed grass which leads east and south

along the pond's shore.  To the north and west a thick line of trees rise

up, stretching towards the sky, a few scattered birds' nests nestled high

in a few odd branches.  The chattering of squirrels from above mixes with

the sounds of waterfowl on the pond, putting you at ease.  A faint path

leads north into the woods.

The stones of the west shore of the pond slope gently up to the shore,

and the water deepens considerably to the east.  Not many cattails are

supported by the rocky pond floor, but a few lily pads float by, sailing

along on the ripples created by jumping frogs or landing ducks and geese. 

The pond water here is fairly clear, with mossy branches and underwater

reeds growing on the pond floor.

The Center of the Duck Pond~
From the center of the small pond the area's wildlife can be clearly

detected by their echoing noises.  A thick wall of cattails rises to the

south, blocking vision yet not motion, and to the west the pond floor

becomes lined with smooth rocks.  The clear water of the pond reveals

mossy branches and hundreds of fallen leaves which have sunk to the floor

of the pond.

A high mud bank lines the pond to the north, while to the east a few

reeds create the necessary handholds to climb out of the pond.  This

water of this section of the duck pond is relatively clear, with only a

few stray cattails blocking sight or motion.  The pond stays too deep to

exit to the north, while to the east a few reeds create the necessary

handhold to climb out.  The nearby splash of jumping frogs get your

attention, shattering the peaceful aura of the small pond.

The sounds of the living pond surround you.  The croaks of frogs, the

quacks of ducks, the honks of geese, even the gentle buzz of the deer

flies.  Lily pads float by among the cattails while waterbugs jump back

and forth across the water creating tiny ripples which spread like

circles in all directions.  Through the mud to the north the shore is

accessable, and in all other directions the peaceful, yet noisy, duck

pond rests, waiting.

In the Duck Pond~
This northwest corner of the pond contains only sparse vegetation, as the

flat rocks beneath your feet contain no nourishment for the cattails. 

The nearby quacks of a few ducks reach your ears along with the sound of

myriad frogs plunging into the cool, clear water.

Hedgehog's Hole~
This hole is the home of a small forest creature.  Soft mud walls have

been packed by bits of grass which the industrious little critter has

brought down here, and a mass of clover appears to be its bed.  Out a

small hole above your head you can hear the sounds of waterfowl and

lapping water.

This small hole is the home of a furry little gopher.  Dry earth walls

surround you except for a small hole above your head which leads up and

leaves litter the floor, perhaps some sort of bedding for this hole's

denizen.

This flat grassy meadow spreads out in all directions other than north,

where the stone wall of Chiiron rises about forty feet above the ground. 

Clovers and violets grow in patches in the shot grass, clipped short by

the nibblings of rabbits and the grazings of deer.

This stretch of growing oak trees grows in size and thickness to the

west, where walnut trees can also be seen.  The trees to the south are

very large and close together as well, joining with the underlying brush

to form barrier which would be extremely difficult to pass through.  A

meadow of grass and clover spreads to the east and north.

trees join with underlying brush to form a fairly impenetrable barrier. 

Fighting your way south would not be very wise, at it appears that to the

west there is a better way to enter the area beyond.

must always be safeguarded against.

Patchy Meadow~
This patchy meadow lies between the stone walls of Chiiron and their

outlying hills and the more fertile land to the city's south and west. 

To the south a thick treeline rises into the sky which could probably be

crossed into, but the fight through the underlying brush would be unwise

because there is most certainly another, easier way to gain access into

the woods beyond.  The ground to the west supports a thick grass

covering, spreading into a long meadow away from the dry hills.

A large, once-grand mansion lies directly to the north.  Bits of glass

and fabric lie strewn on the ground near what were large windows.  These

gaping holes are now mostly covered up with bits of board.  The house

itself is most massive, and built of light grey stone.  It is surrounded

by a low green shrub, the trimming of which must have been the full-time

job of at least one gardener.  A large wooden door once sealed the house

from the outside world; now it looks like it barely can stay on its

hinges.  A large path leads east-west from the house, bordered by

lovely fruit trees.

oak tree~
A tall, ancient oak stands by the well.  Just out of reach up in its

branches you can see a swing.  It appears that perhaps the tree has grown

since anyone has used it -- that, or there is a giant nearby.

~
E
well~
The large well is almost hidden in a large patch of ivy.  As you peer in

for a closer look, you notice that the water is foul and gives off a

terrible odor.

By the Weeds~
To your south and east is a large field of weeds, blocking your way

closer to great house.  Large woods lie in all other directions, looming

dark and forbidding.  Sounds of life can be heard from within the forest,

but also sounds of death.

~
[Grendel] 1st sentence - maybe "closer to THE great house"?

weeds~
Tall weeds of many hues of green form a solid, impenetrable mass.  They

wave in the breeze, but will not allow your passage.

house~
A large, dilapidated house stands in the distance.  The grounds have

clearly not been maintained for some time, and have been overtaken by

weeds.

Dark Woods~
The woods are quite dark here, and the tall elms are covered in thick,

choking vines.  Sounds of large beasts, chasing after light-footed

creatures, echo around you.  You notice that the way south is just a

little bit lighter, and that the trees in that direction are not as

covered in vines.

Woods - By the Pine Tree~
The air is crisp and clean, and the pine scent is strong and refreshing. 

The ground is covered by a layer of pine needles, causing a squishing

sound as you walk.  The needles are so deep, it appears that no one has

disturbed them for years.

Woods - Near a Pond~
You stand in a wooded, grassy area.  To your west is the edge of a dark

forest, filled with large, towering trees.  To the east is the shore of a

large pond teeming with ducks and other types of waterfowl.

Woods~
Small elms and oaks delineate the border between open land and forest. 

You can see the way their tops rise to the west as the forest thickens. 

Towards the east you can see a grassy area, and can just make out

what appears to be a pond in that direction.

Dark Woods~
The forest here is dark, with thick branches covering the sky and casting

the ground deep in shadow.  In all directions, the forest continues,

thinning out to the east, where you see the beginnings of a meadow and,

off in the distance, the walls of Chiiron.

An Underwater Chamber~
This large underwater chamber is dark and murky, barely letting in the

sunlight from above.  A vertical chamber leads up and to the surface, and

another tunnel leads west, still underwater, towards a dim yellow light.

A Secret Cave~
Lit by scores of torches high overhead, this massive cavern stretches out

in all direction from a pool below.  The floor of the cave is covered

with hay and is quite warm.  Small bits of featherstuff litter the

cavern, blowing wisp-like in a slight breeze which sometimes sets the

torch-flames dancing.
