Cave Entrance~
A thin, rocky ledge stretches north to south through this yawning cave. 

Most of the cave's surfaces are too slippery or precarious to walk on. 

Judging from the amount of detritus littered around the cave, it use to

be heavily occupied once.  But now, you see little evidence of current

dwellers.  To the south, at the cave's mouth, you can see a large,

cascading waterfall.  The cave widens to the north, where the floor

becomes less slippery.

Cave Tunnel~
A long, steep tunnel descends north, further under the mountain.  The

temperature of the cavern is much cooler than you are accustomed to.  To

the south, you can see a faint illumination outlining the edges of an

opening.  Beads of moisture run down the side walls of the limestone

cavern.

Passageway~
You can almost feel the weight of the mountain above pressing down upon

you with its immensity.  The passageway runs from east to west over a

level limestone floor.  Stalagmites formed from dripping sediment rise

from the ground like the teeth of a cavern fish.  A small accumulation of

luminescent fungus clings to the northern wall of the passageway, casting

the shadows of the stalagmites onto the south wall.

Cave Tunnel~
The cavern here is much wider than the passageway that lies to the south. 

Thick, heavy stalagmites rise from the ground, creeping around the edges

of a small, milky pool of liquid.  Flecks of shiny minerals can be seen

embedded in the floor and the eastern wall appears to have several

mineral deposits in it.  To the far south, you can see a miniscule amount

of light streaming through a cave opening.  The passageway continues to

head north at a steep angle while to the west it branches along a more

even path.

Picture Room~
The walls of this particular cavern are lined with murals depicting

various forms of community life within the caves.  Drab hues of brown and

gray adorn the granite wall surfaces, with an occasional patch of white

made visible by the flickering light you provide.  The cave passages form

an intersection here, continuing from east to west and upward to the

south.  A single torch burning a foul-smelling substance illuminates the

immediate area.

Natural Spring~
A strange number of non-thallophytic plants grow along the edges of the

dirt-covered cavern floor.  Among them are numberous pothos vines as well

as dark creepers.  The flora within the limestone cavern grows along the

edges of a small, crystal-clear spring.  The cavern continues to the

north and east.

Nature's Cavern~
This limestone cavern is very large and spacious.  The walls are lined

with numerous paintings drawn in chalk and depict things such as animals

and plants.  Piles of wood, long since petrified, lie stacked on the

floor within ancient fire pits.  Bat guano litters the floor in large

heaps.  Clearly, bats have been living within the cavern for quite some

time.  The cavern extends to the west, south, and east.

Nature's Cavern~
Simple etchings on the north wall show pictographic representations of

various local fauna, including the cave bat and some form of rodentia. 

Dark brown marks, quite possibly blood, stain the areas within and

immediately surrounding the etchings, perhaps there as talismen to ward

or warn of these creatures.  To both the east and west of this cavern are

small passageways that you might be able to enter.

Cave Dweller's Living Area~
The warmth of kindred family spirits seems to surround you as you enter

what is obviously the living area of the cave dwellers.  Oil stains line

the walls from torches dipped in animal fat and rocks litter the floor

partitioning the sleeping areas.  Still there is the pervading feeling of

fear and mystery as you wonder what lies ahead in the passages and

rooms.

feeling to go up and down your spine.  The walls of the cavern undulate

in such a way as to create many shadows which jump and dance startlingly

when you move.

Nature's Cavern~
The natural coolness of the cave has a new bone chilling feeling here. 

Scattered about the room are the bones of animals who have come here

to die.  There is only uneasiness in this room, the feeling of spirits

not at rest.  The only escape from this room of bones is back the way

you came.

The Medicine Man's Room~
Unlike the rough, natural cavern to the east, this cavern looks to be

more of a modified chamber.  Its walls have been smoothed somewhat and

are graced by numerous paintings.  There is an air of respect however

around the chamber that is hard to place.  A stone slab lies in the

center of the room and looks very much like a funeral bier.  To the

north, beyond this structured chamber, lies yet more cavern.

Nature's Cavern~
Crude indentations have been dug into the walls on both the west and east

sides of the narrow, limestone passageway.  Within the small hollows lay

the still forms of decaying corpses veiled thinly by cobwebs and dust. 

To either side of each funerary niche there are places to jam torches

into the walls, to illuminate the alcoves.  The limestone cavern

continues north to south along a level floor.

This limestone chamber appears to be a burial ground of sorts.  Numerous

funerary niches line the walls.  Along with the niches, several stone

biers fill the chamber along with a large number of graves.  Many of the

older graves have been dug up and the bones within scattered about the

room.  Painted along the walls and biers are faded pictures depicting

warriors, animals, and battle.

The walls of the cavern about you seem to radiate a sort of natural

light.  Large stalactites hang from the ceiling, and likewise,

stalagmites protrude from the floor.  To the south you can see the floor

is severely scraped.  It is quite obvious that the south wall swings out

somehow.  You expect from the marks on it that it just requires a good

push.

A phosphorescent lichen emits a faint green glow from the walls, but not

nearly enough to illuminate the room or its contents.  The passage

Vertical Passageway~
This chamber is at the base of a very long, vertical passageway.  While

it is difficult from this vantage point to determine the exact height of

this tunnel, it is apparent that the most adroit of spelunkers would

attempt such a journey.  Heavy cast iron rungs are set into the wall of

the passageway providing some assistance in traversing the otherwise

sheer face of the bedrock.  The caverns continue at a significantly more

reasonable angle to the south and east of here.

Large Cavern~
You have just entered a large cavern hewn out of solid stone.  Large

stalactites hang from the ceiling with water dripping off them.  The drops

of water land on the equally large stalagmites.  There must be some

volcanic activity nearby, as the floor of the room is quite hot, with

steam rising from the shallow pools of water.
