#23500 Mine Entrance~ You step into the entrance of the mine. Everything around you is dusty and smells of mildew. Some large boulders line the entrance, making you crawl over them. The inside of the mine looks dark and dangerous. ~ 235 0 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23501 E info credits~ Builder : Zone : 235 Dwarven Mines Began : 1998 Player Level : 10-14 Rooms : 90 Mobs : 12 Objects : 12 Shops : 0 Triggers : 2 Theme : Plot : Links : 00, 99 Map : 01 ~ S #23501 Dwarven Mines~ As you enter the mine, you notice several dwarves hard at work. They look at you with narrow eyes as you walk past them. The dust in here is extremely thick, making it difficult for you to breathe. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23500 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23502 S #23502 Dwarven Mines~ The dust seems to go get thicker here as it threatens to choke the life out of you. You stumble over a large boulder, almost falling flat on your face! ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23501 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23503 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23504 S #23503 Cove~ You find yourself standing in a small cove. It's quite dusty here, but the air is much more breatheable. Someone could easily hide in here and perhaps never be found. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23502 S #23504 Dwarven Mines~ The air seems a lot lighter as you walk deeper into the cold mines. You reach out and feel the walls at your sides. They are cold and damp, but where could the water be coming from? ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23502 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23505 S #23505 Dwarven Mines~ The air seems a lot lighter as you walk deeper into the cold mines. You reach out and feel the walls at your sides. They are cold and damp, but where could the water be coming from? ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23504 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23506 S #23506 Dwarven Mines~ The temperature seems to drop quite a few degrees as you get deeper into the mine. You can hear some water dripping onto the ground before you. It's most likely leaking from the roof. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23507 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23505 S #23507 Dwarven Mines~ You feel your feet sink into a small puddle, but it doesn't feel like water. It's much to thick. As you look more closely, you see that you have stepped into a puddle of blood! How gross! ~ 235 0 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23506 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23508 S #23508 Dwarven Mines~ As you step out of the gooey puddle, you continue making your way through the mines. As you look to your left you can see small streaks of gold running through the rocks. If someone tried chipping out the gold, they would most likely cause an avalanche. ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23507 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23509 S #23509 Dwarven Mines~ The mine seems to expand here, allowing more travelers to pass through. There are several small pebbles lying about the ground. Be careful not to trip over one! ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23508 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23510 S #23510 Dwarven Mines~ You feel your feet suddenly get drenched as you step into a small stream. What a funny place to have a stream! How could it have gotten here? Maybe the mine workers built it so they can drink from it. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23509 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23511 S #23511 Stream~ The stream gets a little deeper here, causing the water to rise to your ankles. You feel a chill rush through your entire body, then continue on your way. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23510 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23512 S #23512 Stream~ The stream comes to an end here, leaving you on dry ground. As you look at the end of the stream, you notice that it disappears into the wall. How could that be? It couldn't have just vanished into the stones! ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23511 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23513 S #23513 Dwarven Mines~ The mine seems to bend here, heading off towards the south. Huge chunks of rock are lying on the ground. Probably left there from some of the workers. How messy these little people are! ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23512 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23514 S #23514 Dwarven Mines~ You begin feeling alone as you get deeper into the mines. Everything around you is terribly quiet. Maybe too quiet. You suddenly get the feeling like you're being watched. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23513 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23515 S #23515 Dwarven Mines~ The light seems to get more scarce here, perhaps a torch would help you see better. You can hear a soft clicking noise in the distance. What could it be? ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23516 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23514 S #23516 Dwarven Mines~ The smell and haze of coal engulfs your senses, almost making you choke and stinging your eyes. The air is very thick and dirty, almost black. But how could the air be black? ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23518 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23517 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23515 S #23517 Dwarven Mines~ Chicken! You took the easy way out. You'd better hope your friends don't find out or else you may never live it down. Flee and run away, yet live another day. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23516 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23533 S #23518 Dark Tunnel~ You have stepped into what appears to be a tunnel. There is no light here. The only way a person would be able to see to get through this jungle would be with a torch or some other light source. ~ 235 a 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23519 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23516 S #23519 Dark Tunnel~ Several large boulders cover the ground. As you look closely, you can see a smashed skeleton. The dwarf must have gotten killed during an avalanche. Don't let the same thing happen to you. ~ 235 a 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23520 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23518 S #23520 Dark Tunnel~ As you continue making your way through the dirty little tunnel, you notice several smears of blood on the walls. Most likely from past adventurers that were not lucky enough to survive. ~ 235 a 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23521 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23519 S #23521 Dark Tunnel~ You can see the end of the tunnel just up ahead to the east. You suddenly feel relieved. You made it through alive! That's something to be very proud of. ~ 235 a 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23522 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23520 S #23522 Dark Tunnel~ You're standing at the end of the tunnel. The mine takes a turn here heading towards the south. The conditions ahead look much more promising. Perhaps you will have an easier journey now. But then again, maybe not. ~ 235 a 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23523 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23521 S #23523 Dwarven Mines~ The mine is actually quite clean here. The smell could be better, but it's not the worst you have smelled, so why complain? To the north you can see a dark tunnel. Perhaps you should stay away from it. It's only for the bravest of souls. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23522 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23524 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23525 S #23524 Dead End~ Oops! You have ran into a dead end! If you had been looking before you moved ahead you never would have ended up here! If you don't start paying closer attention to where you're going, you won't be likely to survive. ~ 235 0 0 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23523 S #23525 Dwarven Mines~ The rocks from the ceiling begin to crumble and fall all around you. You feel some dust and small pebbles hit your head and a few larger rocks crash down around you. You'd better get out of here! ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23523 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23526 S #23526 Dwarven Mines~ Run! Huge boulders are falling all around you. If you stick around, you're sure to be killed. The dust and debris is starting to grow thick. Waiting around could be fatal. ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23525 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23527 S #23527 Dwarven Mines~ Whew! That was a close call. One more minute in that rock slide and you would be dead meat. The path ahead of you seems pretty clear. Theres a few sticks lying on the ground. What would sticks be doing in a mine? ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23526 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23528 S #23528 Dwarven Mines~ As you continue walking, you feel the temperature begin to slowly rise. Little beads of sweat form on your forehead, making you wish you had a cool cloth. The air around you is getting harder to breathe, most likely do to the increase in the temperature. ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23527 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23529 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23530 S #23529 Dwarven Mines~ You begin panting heavily as you continue making your way through the mines. How could anyone survive in these temperatures? The rock walls that surround you are bone dry. You notice that a few of them are giving off steam. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23528 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23534 S #23530 Dwarven Mines~ You start to get the feeling that you have been walking through these dirty mines forever. Everything is begining to look the same. All the rocks have the same formation and seem to be moving towards you. Is this really happening or is it a mirage? ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23528 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23531 S #23531 Dwarven Mines~ There is a torch here, hanging from the wall. It gives off just enough light to let you see where the walls are. The mine continues to the east and west. ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23530 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23532 S #23532 Dwarven Mines~ The mine curves here, heading off towards the north. The ground at your feet is very rough. A person could easily fall and get hurt if they weren't watching where they were going. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23533 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23531 S #23533 Dwarven Mines~ Darkness is ahead of you. As you look at the walls surrounding you, you notice your shadow dancing on the rocks. You look much larger and tougher this way. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23517 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23532 S #23534 Narrow Path~ You have come to a narrow path burried deep within the mines. The path is only big enough for one person to go through at a time. If you dare enter, you'd better be prepared. ~ 235 i 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23529 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23535 S #23535 Narrow Path~ A sense of dread creeps over you as you step deeper onto the path. Some loose pebbles wiggle around under your feet, threatening to trip you. Be careful not to fall! ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23536 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23534 S #23536 Narrow Path~ The rocks at your sides have moved closer together, making it almost impossible for you to get through. There is a small opening you could force yourself through if you're feeling lucky. ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23537 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23538 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23535 S #23537 Dusty Room~ Your body pushes through the narrow opening and falls on the floor in a large dusty room. There is no way out of here, except to turn around and go back through the narrow hole. ~ 235 0 0 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23536 S #23538 Narrow Path~ The path curves here, bending around some large boulders. Some of the boulders have been split in half, others have large chip marks from where other adventurers have tried to break them up. Maybe that isn't such a good idea. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23536 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23539 S #23539 Narrow Path~ The path comes to an abrupt end here. To the west you can see a large pile of boulders which you will have to either climb over, or turn around and go back. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23538 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23540 S #23540 Boulder Heap~ You begin making your way up the enormous pile. Will there even be a way out past this pile? Guess you'll have to take that chance and find out the hard way. ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23539 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23541 S #23541 Boulder Heap~ The large rocks shift under your weight. Be careful! The last thing this mine needs is another corpse. The entire cave seems to be close to collapse. ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23540 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23542 S #23542 Boulder Heap~ The boulders seem to be getting smaller, but less sturdy. Don't look down or you might lose your balance and fall. The fall does not look survivable. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23543 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23541 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23561 S #23543 Boulder Heap~ You find yourself standing at the top of the heap, looking down into the mines. You feel like you're playing king of the mountain. Just like you did when you were a child. There is a narrow passageway to the west. Maybe you can squeeze through it. ~ 235 0 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23542 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23544 S #23544 Narrow Passageway~ You have come to a small passageway. It doesn't look like you could fit through here, but you could try. Maybe with enough squeezing you could slide through. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23545 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23543 S #23545 Narrow Passageway~ You begin forcing yourself through the hole. Rocks are scratching at your sides, and dust is falling into your hair and eyes. Is this really worth all this trouble? ~ 235 0 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23544 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23546 S #23546 Dwarven Mines~ Your body falls out from the passageway and lands on the floor with a loud *THUD*. Your sides ache from the scratches you encountered. You made it through though, maybe thats a good thing. But then again, it could mean trouble. ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23545 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23547 S #23547 Dwarven Mines~ As you continue making your way through the mines, you begin hearing the sound of rushing water coming from the west. The air seems moist and fresh with a cool breeze. ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23546 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23558 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23548 S #23548 Top of the Waterfall~ Your feet get drenched as you step into what looks like the begining of a waterfall. But it's not just any waterfall. This one looks like a huge slide. Someone could ride on it, but where does it lead? It seems to be heading towards the north. You'd bett ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23547 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 23549 S #23549 Waterfall Slide~ The current of the water starts pulling you down the large slide. You notice some small lights attatched to the ceiling, allowing you to see water gushing past you at a tremendous speed. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23550 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 23548 S #23550 Waterfall Slide~ A light spray of mist hits your face as you continue traveling down the waterfall. The temperature seems to be dropping, causing the water to become colder. Maybe this ride wasn't such a good idea after all. ~ 235 0 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23549 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 23551 S #23551 Waterfall Slide~ There is a sharp bend here. You feel your drenched body suddenly get jerked towards the west. You feel your rear end starting to get sore from the rocky bottom of the waterfall. ~ 235 0 0 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23552 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 23550 S #23552 Drop Off~ AHHHHH!!! You feel your helpless body falling through the air, passing large rocks that have been against the walls for some time. You look down and see the end is near. There is a large pile of rocks just below! ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23551 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 23553 S #23553 Pile of Illusions~ The rocks below you seem to fade away and show the waterfall once again. You feel your heart pounding heavily in your chest. That was too close for comfort! ~ 235 0 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23554 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 23552 S #23554 Watefall Slide~ The end of the waterfall is near. You can see an exit to the south. You're clothes begin drying off, leaving you feeling cold and just about dead. Maybe next time you should take the whimps way out. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23553 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23555 S #23555 Exit from the Waterfall~ As you get to the end of the waterfall, you look back at the death trap and thank your lucky stars that you're still alive. The mines seem to continue to the south from here. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23554 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23556 S #23556 Dwarven Mines~ You begin walking away from the waterfall, looking at your surroundings ahead of you. The mines continue to the east. Just up ahead you can see a small intersection. Which path will you choose? ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23555 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23557 S #23557 Dwarven Mines~ Everything around you seems to quiet down, making you feel like you're all alone in these dusty mines. The walls are in bad need of repair. If they don't get fixed soon they might collapse and kill someone, maybe you! ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23558 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23556 S #23558 Intersection~ You're standing in the middle of a small intersection. The ground at your feet is slick and very worn. To the northwest you can see a waterfall, what a beautiful sight! What is south from here is uncertain. Guess you will have to explore and find out. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23547 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23557 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 23559 S #23559 Dwarven Mines~ You skip down a few stairs and walk deeper into the mines. The dust here is awful! It's so thick you can barely breathe. A thin layer of dust is covering the walls and floor. ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23560 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 23558 S #23560 Hole in the Floor~ There is a large hole in the floor here. You could easily climb down into it. You notice a ladder suspended from the floor. Apparently you aren't the only one who's thought of making that trip. The mines continue to the east. ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23561 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23559 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 23563 S #23561 Dwarven Mines~ You sneak down the side of the boulder heap. Make sure no one sees you. You see an enormous hole in the ground to the west. Maybe you could hide in there. ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23542 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23560 S #23562 Cove~ You find yourself standing in a small abandoned cove. There isn't much here to look at, just a few stray cobwebs dangling from the dirty walls. You notice a few scattered pebbles lying about the floor. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23564 S #23563 Hole in the Floor~ You begin climbing down through the floor. Darkness surrounds you, making you feel alone. The ladder you're holding onto is made from rope and some old rotted boards. It could easily break, so be careful! ~ 235 0 0 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 23560 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 23564 S #23564 Hole in the Floor~ The ladder comes to a sudden end. You are forced to jump the rest of the way down. As you land on the ground, you feel a shooting pain rush up your legs. The dust that was looming in the air seems to have vanished. Don't complain. ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23565 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23584 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23571 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 23563 S #23565 Tunnel~ You're walking through a narrow tunnel. In the distance to the east you can hear the shouts of several dwarves training for battle. You must be close to the battlefield. ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23566 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23564 S #23566 Tunnel~ You find yourself standing in a small intersection. To the east you can see the dwarven battlefield. Blood stains the tunnel ahead. To your south you can see more of the mines. ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23569 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23567 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23565 S #23567 Dwarven Mines~ As you continue walking through the mines, you can hear the shouts of dwarven soilders preparing for battle. To the north is a small intersection. The mines continue to the south. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23566 S #23568 Dwarven Battlefield~ As you step out onto the battlefield, you look around at everything around you. This must be just a practice battlefield. You notice that the floor is made from concrete and it's heavily stained with blood. There are several torches hanging from the wall, illuminating the room with a soft glow. The soilders barracks are to the south. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23569 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23585 S #23569 Battlefield Gates~ A set of large brass gates stands before you. The gates reach up to the ceiling, and are perhaps the best part of the mines. By far the most beautiful. By the looks of it, the gate has never been closed. You can hear men shouting and grunting inside. There is an aide room to the east. The battlefield is to the south. Enter with care. ~ 235 h 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23570 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23568 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23566 S #23570 Aide Room~ This is where the dwarven soilders come for aide when they are hurt in battle. There is a long shelf up against the southern wall piles high with bandages and splints. There is a faint odor of blood in here. It almost makes you gag. ~ 235 0 0 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23569 S #23571 Tunnel~ You're standing in a narrow tunnel thats running east and west. To the west you spot a house made out of the stones from the mines. The workers must live in there. The house looks like a cave and has no windows. How could anyone live in a place like that ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23564 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23572 S #23572 Stone House~ You're standing in the entrance to the house. The door that was once here has rotted away and was never replaced. You don't feel very safe here. There are numerous torches nestled into the stone walls. Some of them have burned out and need to be relit. T ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23571 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23573 S #23573 Stairwell~ A small stone stairwell stands before you, covered in dust. You notice some fresh footprints on the steps. Doesn't anyone clean in here? The stairs look fairly sturdy, but are extrememly uneven. Someone could easily fall and break their neck. ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23572 S #23583 Enormous Hole~ There is an emormous hole before you. It's not very deep, but you would most likely get hurt if you attempted to walk through it. The mines continue to the north, west, and south. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23584 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23597 S #23584 Dwarven Mines~ You begin to feel very lost. The only sounds you hear are those of your own footsteps. To the south is a large hole. The mines continue to the north. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23564 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23583 S #23585 Barracks~ You're standing in the soilders barracks. Several bunks line the walls. There is a thin layer of dust on the floor. All the bunks are made, but you wonder when this room was last swept. The training room is to the south. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23568 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23586 S #23586 Soilders Training Room~ This room is quite large. It would have to be to hold all of the soilders. There are numerous torches dangling from the stone walls, lighting the room. There is a small passageway to the south. Where could it lead? ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23585 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23587 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23596 S #23587 Battlefield Entrance~ You're standing in the doorway leading out onto the dwarven battlefield. You see numerous soldiers fighting and training. There are small pools of blood on the ground. You suddenly feel sick to your stomach. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23588 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23586 S #23588 Battlefield~ As you step out into the battlefield, you notice everyone turn and look at you. Perhaps coming here was a bad idea. Now you might not make it back out alive. ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23589 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23587 S #23589 Battlefield~ You're standing in the middle of the battlefield, looking around at everything around you. The ground at your feet is solid, but it's not concrete anymore. It looks like dirt heavily stained with blood. How gross! ~ 235 0 0 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23590 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23588 S #23590 Battlefield~ You have come to the end of the battlefield. You feel a bit relieved knowing that you made it out alive. There is a small path to the south. It looks like it's leading towards the end of the mines. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23589 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23591 S #23591 Marble Path~ As your feet step down on to the marble path, everything around you gets quiet. The only sound you hear is the sound of your footsteps crunching along on the path. The path continues to the south. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23590 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23592 S #23592 Marble Path~ You begin to feel like you're walking on a chess board. The marble at your feet is white and swirled with shades of grey. Some are so dark they look black. The swirls almost hypnotize you. The path continues to the north and west. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23591 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23594 S #23594 Marble Path~ As you continue walking along the path, you begin remembering past adventures you've had. You realize how lucky you are to be alive. You can see the exit to the mines to the west. ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23592 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23595 S #23595 Marble Path~ There is a small intersection here. To the north there is a small passageway. Where could it lead? To the west is the exit out of the mines. Which path will you choose? ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23596 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23594 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23598 S #23596 Passageway~ As you step into the small passageway, you notice there are paths leading in all sorts of directions. To the southwest you can see the ending of the mines. To the southeast is the dwarven battlefield. The shouts of the soilders fill your ears. To the south is a tunnel leading out of the mines. ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23586 D2 ~ ~ 0 0 23595 D3 ~ ~ 0 0 23597 S #23597 Dwarven Mines~ You come to an abrupt hault. There is an enormous hole in the floor to the north. You will have to jump over it. You see a small passageway to the east. Where could it lead? ~ 235 0 0 D0 ~ ~ 0 0 23583 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23596 S #23598 Stairwell~ You have come to the end of the marble path and find yourself standing at the bottom of a wooden stairwell. Half of the wood looks rotted and should have fallen apart years ago. Be careful! The exit is just up ahead to the west. ~ 235 0 0 D1 ~ ~ 0 0 23595 D4 ~ ~ 0 0 23599 S #23599 Exit out of the Mines~ You're standing at the back of the mines in a narrow doorway. The air here is rather musty smelling. The smell just about makes you gag. You notice some burned out torches hanging from the wall. They are covered in dust. They must not have been used in a while. ~ 235 0 0 D5 ~ ~ 0 0 23598 S $~
