#AREA Warlock Coven Mines~ Gramp, Caer, Merior~ Warlock Coven Mines~ 35 0 0 #ROOMS #31250 Decrepit Mine Entrance~ You are standing in the entrance of a decrepit old mine. The walls are roughly cut and thick black tar seeps in the many cracks. The wooden struts holding back the ceiling are rotted and falling apart. From time to time, you can hear strange noises coming from deep within the mine. The tunnel continues downward to the east, or you can exit the mine by heading west. ~ no_mob ~ 335020044 0 5 0 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 31279 10 10 5 D5 ~ ~ 0 -1 31251 10 10 5 A 3 listen~ ~ send_to_char( #sounds, ch ); ~ E sounds~ Straining your ears you can make out the sounds of heavy footsteps nearby. ~ ! 0 0 0 A ~ ~ if( find_stat( ch, level ) < 16 ) act_tochar( #wind, ch ); continue; ~ E wind~ You could have swore you heard a voice in the wind speak, "You are too inexperienced to be in here." ~ ! 1 1 2 A ~ ~ if( find_Stat( ch, level ) < 20 ) act_tochar( #danger, ch ); ~ E danger~ As you approach the mine entrance, you sense a great peril, indeed, one that threatens to squash your puny mortal frame without thought or effort.

A small fire-pit covers the ground, wood still lit and faintly glowing. The heat it emits is warm, and makes the air in the rest of the tunnel seem frigid in comparison. Despite the fact that the logs are burning brightly, the fire never seems to diminish. ~ [Nereus] There's a campfire underground in an enclosed mine, which causes several problems; smoke doesn't have anywhere to ventilate.

A large chunk of a very hard mineral juts out of the northeast corner of the tunnel, its dark green surface smooth and cold.

Its surface is slightly mottled; different hues of green swirl about its surface. ~ -1 S #31343 New Mine Tunnel~ The branching tunnel is quite wide here, and allows easy movement to the north, west, and south.

They are slightly scorched; any more burning could have meant a serious underground fire. ~ -1 S #31344 New Mine Tunnel~ This small area seems to have been scooped out of the surrounding rock, providing a small place to rest before returning to the south and the mines.

It seems to glimmer without the presence of any light. ~ 435 9 1509949540 3 0 -1 S #31346 New Mine Tunnel~ The tunnel here is quite cool; the rocks on the east and west walls are ice-cold to your touch, but very dry.

Dark red-brown earth appears in large splotches on the rock, giving it an appearance like a face covered with giant freckles. The east and west walls are primarily made of the same dark earth, and show little signs of precious minerals. ~ ~ 301465604 0 9 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 31346 10 10 5 E red-brown splotches wall rock~ Dried earth stuck to the wall here seems to have been splattered, forming large blotches of color. ~ 435 9 1509949540 3 0 -1 S #31348 New Mine Tunnel~ The tunnel slopes sharpely upwards here, while to the west it continues.

There is a huge unfinished golem here, surrounded by scaffolding and ropes. He appears to be made out of Krynite, and you feel slightly queasy at the thought of having to face a monster of that size and type. ~ [Callum] 'torchure' should be 'torture' on the dwarves. ~ 301465601 1 8 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 31370 10 10 5 D3 door~ door~ 131 -1 31368 10 10 5 448 9 1509949540 3 0 448 9 1509949540 3 0 486 9 1509949540 3 0 474 17 1509949540 -2 0 -1 S #31370 Warlock Complex - Ore Depository~ The tracks end near the high stone wall to your east.

In some smaller towns where few deaths occur, it may be possible to persuade the local graveyard officials to give over any corpses they may have awaiting burial. These officials make only a pittance from the performance of their duties, and most will gladly take your gold to augment this meagre income. Another option is to find a person who is pleasing to your appetites and kill him or her yourself, and some procedures for this are outlined for you in Chapter 28." ~ E their pain your pleasure~ You open the book and read: "Perhaps the most common misconception amongst the sadists is that inflicting pain upon a victim drains the torturer of his emotions. This is simply not true. Great emotion can be experienced by the torturer, leading him to ecstasies and fantastic pleasures. To give mercy to our victim is to forfeit delights that are unknown to the weaker beings of compassionate nature." ~ E titles books~ You tilt your head sideways and scan the titles of the books closest to you.

The drab brownish-grey rock of the mines is shot through in various places with veins of pure white quartz. The floor of the tunnel is littered with jagged pieces of stone, most likely hewn out of the tunnel walls. The ceiling of the tunnel is relatively high, just a touch higher than a tall ogre could reach. Set into the eastern wall is a massive door of pitted iron. ~ [Nereus] Extras: look [ jagged stone floor ] [Nereus] Extras: look [ vein pure white quartz ] ~ 301465604 0 9 0 D1 great iron door~ great iron door~ 131 -1 31283 10 10 5 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 31397 10 10 5 E door iron~ This tall, thick door is made of crudely wrought iron. It is pitted and rusted with age, yet still stands firm. ~ -1 S #31397 New Mine Tunnel~ This tunnel has been roughly hewn out of the brownish-grey stone. All along the walls and ceiling, the rock has been gouged and hewn away inexpertly, shattering the stone around it. Small slivers of quartz litter the floor, along with larger chunks of brown rock. Along the western wall of the chamber, a vein of violet ore spreads its spidery lines through the pure white of a large quartz deposit, mingling violet and alabaster in a lovely, random pattern through the dull brown rock. ~ ~ 301596676 0 9 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 31396 10 10 5 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 31398 10 10 5 E west wall violet ore quartz~ The western wall is a perfect example of nature's beauty. A deposit of the purest white quartz dominates the wall, while spidery veins of violet ore sprawl through it in a random pattern of lines. The pale bluish-purple ore fades in and out of the quartz before fading away entirely near the south end of the wall. ~ -1 S #31398 New Mine Tunnel~ The monotony of the drab, greyish brown stone is broken along the western wall by a brilliant blaze of white quartz threaded through with a few gossamer strands of violet ore. A large hole has been gouged out of the lovely quartz. All around the three foot wide hole, white quartz has been marred and shattered by the clumsy excavation. The floor of this section of the mine is curiously mounded up with a myriad of rock shards, chunks of quartz, and just plain dirt. ~ ~ 301465604 0 9 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 31397 10 10 5 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 31399 10 10 5 -1 S #31399 Before the Great Iron Door~ Under Construction. ~ ~ 301465604 0 9 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 31398 10 10 5 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 31400 10 10 5 -1 S #31400 Before the Great Iron Door~ Under Construction. ~ ~ 301465604 0 9 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 31399 10 10 5 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 31401 10 10 5 -1 S #31401 Before the Great Iron Door~ Under Construction. ~ ~ 301465604 0 9 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 31402 10 10 5 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 31400 10 10 5 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 31403 10 10 5 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 31404 10 10 5 -1 S #31402 Before the Great Iron Door~ Under Construction. ~ ~ 301465604 0 9 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 31401 10 10 5 -1 S #31403 Before the Great Iron Door~ Under Construction. ~ ~ 301465604 0 9 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 31401 10 10 5 -1 S #31404 Before the Great Iron Door~ Under Construction. ~ ~ 301465604 0 9 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 31401 10 10 5 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 31405 10 10 5 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 31406 10 10 5 -1 S #31405 Before the Great Iron Door~ Under Construction. ~ ~ 301465604 0 9 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 31404 10 10 5 -1 S #31406 Before the Great Iron Door~ Under Construction. ~ ~ 301465604 0 9 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 31407 10 10 5 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 31404 10 10 5 -1 S #31407 Before the Great Iron Door~ Under Construction. ~ ~ 301465604 0 9 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 31408 10 10 5 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 31406 10 10 5 -1 S #31408 Before the Great Iron Door~ Under Construction. ~ ~ 301465604 0 9 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 31410 10 10 5 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 31409 10 10 5 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 31407 10 10 5 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 31411 10 10 5 -1 S #31409 Before the Great Iron Door~ Under Construction. ~ ~ 301465604 0 9 0 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 31408 10 10 5 -1 S #31410 Before the Great Iron Door~ Under Construction. ~ ~ 301465604 0 9 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 31408 10 10 5 -1 S #31411 Before the Great Iron Door~ Under Construction. ~ ~ 301465604 0 9 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 31408 10 10 5 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 31412 10 10 5 -1 S #31412 Before the Great Iron Door~ Under Construction. ~ ~ 301465604 0 9 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 31413 10 10 5 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 31411 10 10 5 -1 S #31413 Surrounded by Quartz~ Under Construction. ~ ~ 301596676 0 7 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 31412 10 10 5 -1 S #0
