If you look closely, you'll find a little of everything. ~ 0 262152 0 D0 ~ door~ 1 -1 14547 S #14551 A very old road~ This ancient, overgrown road was made years before the village was constructed. It's age is so great you can see where trees grew through it's center, were cut down and made into firewood. ~ 0 4 1 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 14537 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 14552 S #14552 Garden and Old Road~ The old road leads south while a small path leads westward into a large garden patch.

Very cold water hits the side of the bridge and throws cold spray into your face. The wall encircling the village proper also encircles a long stretch of the river. ~ 0 0 1 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 14553 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 14555 S #14555 South side of bridge~ The bridge you are travelling on appears to have been constructed using the same material and methods used to build the ancient road you are travelling upon. ~ 0 0 1 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 14554 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 14556 S #14556 Ancient road~ The ancient road widens as it drives straight as an arrow in a southern direction. Although the road is cracked and crumbling at the edges it still provides the best travelling surface you have ever seen. ~ 0 4 1 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 14555 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 14557 S #14557 Red stained road~ Several large red stains appear along this area of the ancient roadway. Upon closer examination you are able to determine that the stains are old blood. Surely a battle has been fought here! To your right and left short squat towers flank the road. Small doors, low to the ground, provide entrance to the towers. The tower construction is as ancient as the road. ~ 0 0 1 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 14556 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14561 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 14564 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14558 S #14558 Before the West Tower~ The West Tower is a dark gray color. Several gargoyles are crouching along the rim of the tower..protecting the residents from danger. Stooping down you can see into the tower and out the other side. ~ 0 0 2 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14557 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14559 S #14559 West Tower~ This tower is rather small and has a dark, ominous feel about it. The roof has caved in, allowing the fresh mountain air to penetrate into every secret corner. The entrance is to the east. The west wall has a large gaping hole in it's center. ~ 0 262152 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14558 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14560 S #14560 West Tower~ Scattered about the fallen bricks and timbers from the roof are bones and broken furniture. The huge hole in the west wall shows signs of fire. The bricks scattered about the room appear to have been caused by a very large explosion. ~ 0 262152 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14559 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14589 S #14561 Before East Tower~ You are standing before the slim East Tower. Unlike the West Tower this tower has been whitewashed. Painted every three feet are red stylized crosses. Again, unlike the West Tower this tower does not have gargoyles about it's rim. ~ 0 0 2 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14562 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14557 S #14562 Inside the East Tower~ A thin layer of dust covers the floor of this tower. The markings in the dust indicate that someone, or something, has passed this way recently. The room is mostly bare. ~ 0 262152 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14563 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14561 S #14563 East Tower~ A large tapestry is hanging on the east wall. The tapestry shows a mountain scene, with a river running through a valley and into a large cave mouth. Several arrow slits provide access for both air and light. ~ 0 262152 0 D1 A very large tapestry covers a hole in the wall.~ tapestry~ 1 -1 14596 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14562 S #14564 Ancient road~ Near the twin towers you have a really good view of the city wall and it's southern gate. The wall is approximately 12 feet tall. The gate is made of metal and has large spears protruding from the top to stop "wild animals" from climbing the barrier. ~ 0 0 1 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 14557 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 14565 S #14565 Before the gate~ This huge metal gate appears to have been built much later than the ancient road it guards. A close look at the door reveals a tiny, hand written sign attached to the gate. ~ 0 0 1 E sign~ BEWARE. This gate is to remain closed at all times. The evil must be controlled. The evil must be contained.~ D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 14564 D2 This massive steel gate has spears along it's top.~ gate~ 1 -1 14566 S #14566 Other side of the gate~ You are standing on the south side of the gate leading to Malo Village. The ancient road continues to the south but is blocked by a rough wall of ill placed boulders. On each side of the road are sharpened stakes driven at an angle into the ground. The stakes are obviously meant to keep travellers on the road. ~ 0 0 1 D0 This massive steel gate has sharpened spears along it's summit.~ gate~ 1 -1 14565 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 14567 S #14567 Ancient way~ The ancient road you are on is buried under a huge pile of boulders placed strategically across the road to block travel. ~ 0 0 1 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 14566 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 14568 S #14568 Base of Boulders~ The boulders have been stacked to block travel on the ancient road.

Skirting along sharpened stakes the path meanders amoungst and besides the huge boulders stacked precariously across the ancient road. ~ 0 0 2 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14568 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14570 S #14570 A path~ The path comes to an abrupt halt. The boulders curve inward, towards the city, and with the aid of the sharpened stakes all about you travel in this direction has been effectively cut off. ~ 0 0 2 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14569 S #14571 A small path~ This small path leads you away from the ancient road, along the boulders and into the sharpened stakes set to keep you on the road. ~ 0 0 2 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14572 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14568 S #14572 End of path~ The path has come to an end. The high wall of boulders curves inward and effectively traps you against the sharpened stakes. ~ 0 0 2 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14571 S #14573 Path's end~ You are approaching the end of the palm path. Several buildings to the north of you appear to be both warehouses and living quarters. The smell of drying fish is evident and a small fishing boat has been drydocked for repair. ~ 0 0 2 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 14574 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14513 S #14574 Entrance to Land's End~ Land's End is a small fishing village with such a small population it doesn't appear on any maps. Two large warehouses and two homes are the only standing buildings. ~ 0 0 2 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 14575 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 14573 S #14575 Land's End Road~ This is the only "road" in Land's End. The most accurate description would be a path. On both sides of you stand large warehouses where tradegoods are stored. A few fishing nets hang from nearby trees and a drying rack produces that strong fish smell which spreads through the air. ~ 0 0 2 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 14576 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14578 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 14574 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14579 S #14576 Ocean View~ >From here you can see the ocean and any incoming vessels. Two homes stand nearby as well as a rowboat and three fishing vessels drydocked for the season. Perhaps the fishing is bad. ~ 0 0 2 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14577 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 14575 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14580 S #14577 Oceanview Home~ This lovely wooden home stands so near the water that it's occupants have the most beautiful view you've ever seen. Several crabs have made their home outside the seaward window. ~ 0 262152 0 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14576 S #14578 Large Warehouse~ This large warehouse was built to contain tradegoods for all of the sailors and merchants expected to use Ocean View as a port of call. Unfortunately, no one seems to know exactly where Ocean View is. ~ 0 262152 0 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14575 S #14579 Largest Warehouse~ You are standing in the largest warehouse on this side of the ocean. The echo of your steps bounces back to you very quickly. When the weather turns incliment the local fishermen drag their vessels into this warehouse for safety. ~ 0 262152 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14575 S #14580 Small home~ This small home has been built from the bones of whales and other small sea animals. Barnacles would feel right at home here...if the home were under water of course. ~ 0 262152 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14576 S #14581 Garden way~ Garden way is simply a path leading through or near the vegatables planted by the villagers. All about you are sprouting plants. ~ 0 0 2 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14552 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14582 S #14582 Garden path~ All about you are growing tiny little plants that will one day feed the population of the village. ~ 0 0 2 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14581 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14583 S #14583 Garden alley~ The path has now led you through several rows of beans, squash, and melons. ~ 0 0 2 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14582 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14584 S #14584 Garden along the river~ The garden continues to parallel the mountain river. While walking through the carrots you glance south into the river and see the remains of a wooden bridge washed ashore. The bridge is flimsy and ill made and obviously was not meant to be permanent. ~ 0 0 2 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14583 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14585 S #14585 Along the river~ The rushing water to your south has been used to irrigate the garden. Several large clay containers are gathered along the river for this very purpose. ~ 0 0 2 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14584 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14586 S #14586 Behind the buildings~ You are walking behind the homes and quite by accident have discovered a child's toy. The toy is a wooden doll, complete with dress and straw hair. It is lying in the mud and appears to have been trampled. ~ 0 0 2 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14585 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14587 S #14587 River View~ >From this part of the garden you have an excellent view of the river as it passes through the fence. A huge section of the 12 foot high fence is missing above the river. Perhaps a massive rain washed that section of the fence away? ~ 0 0 2 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14586 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14588 S #14588 Garden's end~ The garden ends here at the village wall. The crops have been trampled and there's nothing here but a large mud patch. A large mud patch with scores of tracks. ~ 0 4 2 E tracks track~ The tracks you see are well defined and were obviously made by an unshod foot. The toes are extremely long and end with curved talons.~ D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14587 S #14589 Outside the West Tower~ The soft ground here shows evidence of recent travel. Some of the many marks in the ground were obviously made by booted soldiers while the unshod footprints appear to have been made by nonhuman feet. The prints are elongated and end in talons. ~ 0 0 2 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14560 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14590 S #14590 Path near fence~ This tiny path goes to the fence then parallels it. Following the path would take you near the river. ~ 0 0 2 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 14591 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14589 S #14591 Slaughter site~ Unexpectedly you have come across several skeletons and what would appear to be the site where several people were killed. Strips of cloth are embedded in the mud and stuck to bushes and the yellowing bones of two or three skeletons are scattered everywhere. ~ 0 0 2 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 14592 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 14590 S #14592 Bushy path~ The closer you get to the river the bushier it becomes. Squeezing past some of the bushes along this path is a sticky situation. There are 1 inch thorns on some of them. Be careful. ~ 0 0 2 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 14591 D3 ~ ~ 0 -1 14593 S #14593 Near the fence~ Once again the path has come close to the fence. Looking closely you discover several large holes dug under the fence. If you were a little smaller you could have squeezed through those holes and gotten to the other side. ~ 0 0 2 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 14594 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14592 S #14594 Near the river~ The rushing water of the river drowns out nearly all sounds. You are alone with one of the forces of nature.

Several markings on the ground show where boats have been pulled ashore, however, you see no signs of them now. The river passes through the 12 foot tall fence to your west. A large section of the fence is gone, allowing passage into the countryside. ~ 0 4 2 D1 ~ ~ 0 -1 14594 S #14596 Outside the East Tower~ You are standing along the east wall of the East Tower. Tracks in the soft earth lead to the wall nearby and towards the river. ~ 0 0 2 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 14597 D3 A very large tapestry covers a hole in the wall.~ tapestry~ 1 -1 14563 S #14597 Small path at river's edge~ This small path has seen little traffic in recent times. There are obvious signs of use by small animals, tracks, droppings, etc.. however, no man sized creatures have passed this way for years. The river is rushing past you and flows through the large hole in the fence to your right. Perhaps a large rain washed it away? ~ 0 4 2 D0 ~ ~ 0 -1 14598 D2 ~ ~ 0 -1 14596 S #14598 On the river~ You are on the river which flows south of Malo Village. To the south of you are two short towers and of course the wall which surrounds the village. To the east is a large hole in the fence.
