At the End of the Beach Path~
To the west, you can see a narrow path which has been beaten into the

fine sand that passes between two dunes.  The path halts abruptly as it

abuts a wide, sandy beach.  The sand, stretching in all directions, is

fine-grained; brightly golden in color away from the water's edge, darker

gold where waves have crested upon the shore.  The air hangs heavy with

the tang of saltwater and the unmistakeable smell of fish.  Eastward, in

the distance, lie the azure waters of the Sea of Stars.

beach sand golden~
The beach spreads out before you, far-ranging in scope.  Its granules are

fine, loosely packed, and shift with each step upon its golden surface. 

Pieces of driftwood, long strands of dark green seaweed, the shell of a

long-dead crab, lie scattered about, dark blotches upon the sand.

Sandy Beach at the Sea~
Underfoot, the chill waters of the undulating sea lap the shore, ebbing

with the tides.  Left behind as offerings upon the sand are pieces of

driftwood and broken, useless shells.  Small holes are scattered across

the sand, similar to those made by burrowing clams.

In the Surf~
The rolling waves relentlessly seek the golden beach, its chill water

lapping your ankles as it moves west.  Serpentine strings of seaweed and

bouyant fragments of driftwood are carried and deposited by the icy water. 

Just to your west, damp sand fades to dry; darkly the Sea of Stars

stretches off to your east, disappearing into the distant horizon.

Entrance to a Small Alcove~
To your west lies a small alcove which has been worn into the high cliffs. 

Bits of twigs and sandstone lie at the foot of the cliffs, their

appearance no mystery.  The beach stretches north and south for quite

some distance; not far to your east lies the Sea of Stars.

This little alcove is totally protected from the elements.  You are

here is quite dirty, and bits of burned wood seem to have been mixed into

it.  The surface of the sand is also marked by large indentations, about

the size made by humans sitting on its soft surface.

Dark blue water ebbs and flows just to your east as the Sea of Stars

tries to meet the land.  The sand at your feet is slightly damp, as if

Waves lap gently around your feet, the cold water chills your feet and

will rapidly move to the rest of your body.  Seaweed moves in from the

east and begins to twist itself around your feet, then suddenly the water

reverses and it moves back to sea.  Half a dozen large, jagged rocks lie

to your south and east, making those directions appear hazardous to

travel.

You are in the cold, frigid waters of the sea.  The tide is rather strong

here and pulls at your feet.  The sounds of the violent crashing of the

the moist, sandy shore; while to the east, the water deepens.

You are hanging off the face of a small cliff.  Along the walls are many

small notches to aid you in your climb upward.  Just above you, you can

see a small ledge.  As you get closer to your As you get closer to your

Sandy Beach~
Tall cliffs rise up to your west, their sandstone surfaces pocked with

age.  There are no apparent handholds nor any visible way up.  You can

see small plants growing in the slowly weathering surface and small bits

of stone lie on the sand by your feet.

Several thick vines grow from the side of the cliff and extend a good

distance down toward the beach.  You also see some holes and cracks on

Before the Edge of a Steep Cliff~
You are at the start of a narrow trail which continues south along the

massive sandstone cliff.  A few cracks can be seen along the side of the

cliff to the north and east, probably caused by years of exposure to rain

and wind.  Hanging against the cliff is a thick branch that holds a large

nest.  Several rocks jut up from the ground to form a set of steps by the

eastern side of the trail and leads downward.

A Sandy Trail Along the Cliffs~
The trail curls around the massive cliff and continues to the north and

west.  Soft, golden sand covers the trail in several thin layers.  The

sand granules along the upper layer have been lifted off the ground by a

constant stream of air to form a low-lying vortex.  The sounds of

wildlife and crashing waves can be faintly heard from the beach directly

below you to the south and east.

it except for the faint outline of the trees.  No sound can be heard from

within the forest; no birds chirp and not even the slight breeze blowing

through the trees causes any sound to issue forth.  To the east a sandy

trail heads along the edges of the cliffs as it works its way back down

towards the beach by the Sea of Stars while to the south a small trail

The foamy white wave crests which slowly build up from the eastern waters

quickly dissipate as they crash here, eventually reaching the sandy shore

to the east.  Some light-green seaweed is carried with the waves and

softly passes by your feet.

You are in the waters of the sea.  The water is cold and dark, but not

that deep here.  A sandy shoreline can be seen to the west, moistened by

the waves which come crashing from here.  Looking to the north, east, and

south, you only see more and more water.

The waves are none too gentle here and use your body as a breakwater. 

Further to the east the water is very cold and very deep, the shore lies

a little way to your west.  A large piece of driftwood floats by, just

out of your reach.

The waves flow monotonously from east to the west forming very tall

crests.  The water is chilly and blue.  Bubbles begin to rise from below

before eventually bursting when they reach the surface.  The sea seems to

shallow out to the west and a shore can be detected in the distance.

The cold waters of the Sea of Stars continue for quite some distance

across the eastern horizon.  The water is light blue, but its added depth

and dark sandy floor prevent you from seeing much past its surface.  The

waves continue to roll rhythmically, as they pass by you in an east-west

direction.

The water glistens in the light, but its dark color prevents you from

seeing much of anything below the surface.  Rippling patterns form all

along the surface, the source of them most likely being tiny minnows

which you can't make out due to the darkness of the sea.  To the far west

is a sandy shore, while the sea continues to deepen to the east.

of the waves.  The frigid waters of the Sea of Stars continue much

further to the east.

The water is chilly, and the passing breeze only helps to make it feel

colder here.  All around you is more and more water, with many white

foams and ripples along its glistening surface.  The waves seem to be

rushing very hard from the south.  To the east, the water deepens, and

you can see the sea extend for a tremendous distance in that direction.

Softly sculpted sandstone cliffs prevent your movement to the north or

a little north before reaching the base of the cliff.

to move in that direction.
