Limbo^
    You are floating in a formless void, detached from all sensation of
physical matter, surrounded by swirling glowing light, which fades into the
relative darkness around you without any trace of edges or shadow.
There is a no tipping notice pinned to the darkness.

Blizzard Pass^
    You are trudging through deep snow as you follow a narrow track that
winds down a long pass leading ever southwards, it's end is hidden by the
flurries of snow that are still falling. Either side of you the mountains tower
above the pass, with the high peaks veiled in cloud. At one point however the
cliff is nowhere near as steep and a fair way up a single window is cut into the
cliff, looking out across the snows.
^
101 -101 -168 -100 -167 0 0
Blizzard^
     You are lost in a blizzard, almost blinded by the driving snows. The
howling icy wind sends huge clouds of snow whistling across the plain totally
obscuring your view.
   The snows extend in all directions.
^

Cliff Window^
    You are hanging onto a fairly precipitous cliff, beside a rocky window.
Far below you can see the pass which seems to sway backwards and forwards as the
icy wind tries to tear you away from the cliff and lashes you with huge clouds
of blinding snow. 
    The window is west.

Stonewalled Chamber^
    You are in a small stonewalled chamber. Light streams in through a
somewhat vandalised window, to the north is another darker chamber only
partially lit from the window, while to the south through a doorway veiled in
deep shadow you can see a dark passage.
     The window is east.

Gloomy Room^
    You are in a dark gloomy room, light from the window to the south dimly
illuminates one wall. To the south is another much brighter chamber.

Bugiits Leap^
    You stand at the top of a tall cliff looking north, down into a deep
valley. Huge rocks at the bottom offer the delights of total oblivion, to
become another smashed wreck at its base.
    If you are in no hurry, a narrow cliff path also leads down to the north
descending down a fissure in the cliff itself.
  To the south a path runs towards a large castle with a threatening black
tower, whilst to the west is an old watchtower.

The Ruined WatchTower^
    You stand in the burnt out ruins of an old stone watchtower. Soot and
moss cover the blackened crumbling stones. A single narrow set of steps 
wind down and east back to the path.
^
1052 -1050 0 -1053 0 0 0
Long And Winding Path^
    You are following a north-south path, which links the cliff edge with a
a large stone castle, out of which rises a black tower which glitters with
the light, and from stored magical energy, some of which can be seen to be
illuminating the very top of the tower with a bright golden light.
 
^
1053 -1052 0 1029 0 0 0
Castle walls^
    You stand at the walls of a large castle, out of which looms up
a large tower, crackling with magical energy. From here the castle
looks deserted, but you cant be sure.
The path leads back north, and the main archway into the castle south.
^
1054 -1060 -1061 -1055 -1066 0 0
The Central Courtyard^
    You stand in the central courtyard of a huge, and ancient castle,
flickering torches set high around the walls, illuminate even the darkest
corners with a reddish flickering glow. A huge archway leads north, its sides
carved with fantastic images of dragons and fables.
Arched entryways lead south east and west.

1055 -1054 -1056 -1057 -1058 0 0
The Outer Hall^
    You stand in the shadowy outer hall, lit only by flaming torches high,
out of reach on the walls. The dim flickering light illuminates the many
doorways which lead north, south, east and west.
    A cold draught blows through the hall, from the grand, heavily carved
archway, which looks out northwards across the courtyard, its high
thick walls silhouetted in the torch light.

Side Hall^
    You stand in a small gloomy hall , just east of the outer hall. All
around you the walls seem to glow with magical power. You sense that
maybe all is not as meets the eye. 
    A single exit leads back west.
^

Inner Sanctum^
    This is the stately room where the Lords and Ladies of court would
wait to be entertained by the King of the Castle, although now the
tapestries hang in shreds on the walls and all the treasures that once 
stood on pedastals have been smashed or stolen... it would appear
that the castle has been raided and the King overthrown.
    Archways lead North and South.
^
1058 0 -1055 0 0 0 0
Tax Room^
    This would appear to be the stately room where the taxes for the
surrounding area were collected and counted, although not stored here, as
you yourself found it so easy to get in.
 
^
1059 -1057 -1065 1038 -1063 0 0
Kings Chamber^
    You find yourself in a large chamber used for the King and his
court to be entertained in all day and feast in at night, although
it looks like the last feast had a main course with more bite than usual!
Splendid Archways lead North East and West.
^
106 -103 -129 0 -107 0 0
Dark Passage^
    You are following a dark passage which leads north into a brighty lit
room and into a T junction. The thick dust on the floor shows that you
are the only person to have come this way for a long time.
Exits lead: North,East,West.

Portcullis^
    You stand in a large archway which leads out onto path and south
back into the courtyard of the castle. Above you lies the complicated
pulley system used to operate the portcullis.

Stables^
    You are standing in the stables for the castle, and from the floor you
can tell that they have been in use recently.
    A strong wind gusts through the open doorway to the west.
^
1062 1039 0 0 0 0 0
Escape passage^
    This is a passageway which would be used by the King and his court if the
castle defence was ever penetrated, to escape from the attackers, and looking
at the lack of dust and cobwebs it would seem to have been used recently.
The passage is small and dark, but probably more inviting than the wrong
end of a sword, and at the moment it leads to a sparkling portal which
would lead onto Xanadu but is closed for Spring cleaning!
^
1063 0 -1059 0 0 0 -1064
Kitchens^
    You are standing in the large kitchens for the castle where the daily 
feasts were prepared for court. The place is now in disarray, with tables
and cooking utensils scattered all over the floor.
    Exits lead East,and down some stairs.
^
1064 0 0 0 0 -1063 0
Kitchens store room^
    You are in a large and dry store room for the food and drink neede
to keep the King happy. It seems to have escaped the attention of the
attackers, as the stores are intact, but out of reach.
    A set of narrow steps lead up.
^
1065 0 1036 0 -1059 0 0
Torture Chamber^
    You are standing in a pleasant torture chamber which would appear
to have been in regular use as not a single implement lies rusted.
Many implements of torture lie about the room with various pieces of
anatomy still attached to some of them.
    A single doorway leads west.
^
1066 0 -1054 0 0 0 0
Guard Room^
    You find yourself in the guard room for the castle. Bunks line the
walls, and weapon racks stand in the centre of the room, though they are
all empty now. Judging by the upturned tables and chairs and the dried 
blood on the floor you think that the guards may not have left on a
Sunday afternoon stroll.
     A single narrow doorway leads east.

    You appear to be inside the Iron Maiden, an ancient form of torture,
and you notice how good the fit is.....

Stonewalled Passage^
    You are walking along a long and fairly wide stonewalled passage
leading east and west through the mountain. To the north through a doorway there
is a small room.

Base of the Tower^
    You are now inside the black tower which stretches up out of the castle
skywards. The walls glisten with sorcery and from high above come the noises
of high level spells and experimentation.
    A doorway leads east into another room.
    There is a door to the north.
^
1071 1002 0 0 -1070 0 0
Black Tower^
    You are in a small dark room in one of the lower levels of the black
tower. It appears to be a store room for spell ingredients which line
the shelves on the northern wall.
An archway leads west to the tower entrance.
^
1072 0 0 1003 -1073 0 0
Candle Room^
    This room looks like a cross between a Queen video and Madame Toussauds
after an arson attack, as candles of all shapes, sizes and colours fill the
room. A passageway leads west.

Scroll Room^
    You are in a large, dry and well lit store room for scrolls, which would
appear to be the Sorcerers supply.

Potion store room^
    This would appear to be the potion preparation and store room for
the Sorcerer, as around you lie shelves once lined with glass vials and
bottles ready to be filled. A single doorway leads south.
^
1075 -1074 0 0 0 0 0
Spell Room^
    This room would appear to be one of the Sorcerers many spell rooms
as its scorched walls show the signs of many a fireball spell or a
more dangerous variant of it. A single scorched doorway leads north.

Magical item storeroom^
    You are standing in a large storeroom which would be packed with 
magical artefacts in normal times but it seems that the Sorcerer is using
their power for a large spell project that crackles from the top most
level of the tower.
    A doorway leads through to the east to the wraith room, and you tremble
at the thought of the creature which may lie through it, a creature which
has been known to slay even enchanters in but a single blow.....
^
1077 -1078 0 0 -1076 0 0
Wraith Room^
    You find yourself in the room where the Sorcerer keeps the undead 
creatures, in particular his pet favourite Wraith, until he needs them.
Exits lead north and west.

Levitation Room^
    You find yourself in a completely black room, even light seems afraid to
go here. It is completely bare of adornments and the walls wouldnt stay 
if they had somewhere else to lean!
There is a single exit in the ceiling high above,and another to the south.
    You seem to be floating!!

magical energy. Apart from the hole in the floor the only exit 
available is to the east.

Sorcerers Room^
    You are in a very large and exceedingly magical room, devoted to the
pursuit of magic in all its form. Flames dance over the walls to light
the scene, although they are merely for effect as a permanent fire fountain
erupts from the centre of the room producing no sound. Gargoyles wink at you
from the walls and objects move quietly in complex patterns in the corners
getting on with the jobs they have been given. 
    There is a door to the south, and a doorway leads west. A splendid arched
window looks east across the world.

Treasure Chamber^
    This is large treasure store and naturally everything in it belongs to
the Sorcerer and might take a rather nasty attitude to being removed.

through a hole in the roof above.

Ruined Temple Hall^
    You are in a dark rather gloomy temple. Huge pillars hold up the roof
of this vast chamber and cast strange shadows that seem to dance around you as
you move around. The centre of the temple is a flat platform with a now broken
altar as it's centrepiece.
Exits: North.

Hidden Hut^
    You are inside a low wooden hut, carefully concealed by greenery and rocks
to provide a quiet, restful shelter. The only exit is a door to the east.
    To judge from the bed in the corner, the occupant of the hut has been 
here recently.

Treehouse South^
    You are at the southern end of the treehouse, which appears to be used by 
its occupant for a sleeping area. Large amounts of thick bedding insure that
its occupant will be comfortable even in bad weather. A single way leads

Narrow Gulley^
    You are clambering through a narrow rocky gulley, the floor of which
is sloping at an angle of almost 45 degrees. Shale and loose stone make
the gulley treacherous, as your feet send bits of rock tumbling down into
the valley below.
    You can clamber up the gulley towards a turning or down it towards
the valley floor.
^

North End Of Valley^
    You are at the northern end of a steep mountainous valley. The valley 
extends away southwards as far as you can see, flanked on each side by the
mighty mountain peaks towering into the clouds.
    A narrow gulley leads west up the side of a cliff, climbing at a dangerous
looking angle towards the top.

Northern End Of Valley^
    You are near the northern end of the valley. The dark mountains close
up around you to the north, although a narrow track for some reason leads
north right towards the very end of the valley. Elsewhere around you the
view is obscured by trees, although from the south you can hear the musical
tinkle of water.

Oak Forest^
    You are walking through well spaced oak trees, whose low tangled branches
reach out around you, confusing the light and rustling quietly in the wind.
    The forest extends in all direction save from the north, where it stops
abruptly, cut short by a massive towering cliff. To the west there seems to
be a clearing.
    A path climbs up the cliff side to the north.

607 -632 -614 -613 -606 -632 0
Forests Edge^
    You stand on the edge of the forest, which extends south east and west as

hedges, but a few gaps enable you to squeeze through.

Spring^
    You are standing in a small rocky hollow on the edge of the western 
mountains. A single spring trickles from the rock here, running eastwards out
into the valley proper. Apart from east back into the valley, steep rocky
cliffs bar all exits, save west along a narrow ledge.

Humpbacked Bridge^
     You are standing at the northern end of a small humpbacked bridge, a

Stream Edge^
     You are on the edge of the stream, hemmed close to the water by thick

Stream^
    You are standing on the south bank of a small gently flowing stream,

direction, with a small amount of effort and squeezing through bushes.
    The water is so shallow here you can easily wade across.

Beside The Stream^
    You are on the south bank of the stream. Thick forest lies in all

Pool^
    You are standing beside a small , smooth pool, fed from a
stream which runs in from the north. The cool shallow waters of the pool 
flicker and dance with the breeze, reflecting the swaying trees, and the

flooded too.

    You are standing in a dim forgotten place, deep underground. The rocks
around you seem placid and silent, as if in silent contemplation of some
deeper more ancient power of the earth.

Bottom Of Pit^
    You are standing at the bottom of a huge open pit. The pit walls are
almost sheer, and well beyond climbing. A narrow tunnel leads south into
shadow.

Before The Gates^
    You are standing on a vast windswept plain, formed entirely of black
volcanic dust. The dark gloomy wastes extend as far as your eye can follow,
reflecting strangely against a fiery red sky..
    Directly before you, the only landmark in sight is a huge golden citadel
whos walls reflect the flames and blood red glow of the hellish skies above.

The Flaming Gates^
    You are standing before a set of gigantic flaming gates, wrought entirely of
a strange blood tinged gold. The gates reflect the hellish fiery red glowing
from two huge lava channels which flank the path you walk. To the east
through the gates everything becomes a confusing mass of reflected flames
against gold.

Fiery Hall^
    You are standing in a fiery red hall whose walls are caked with sulphur.
Its very hot in here, but strangely the heat doesn't seem to be affecting
you too badly. Twisiting flame lined passages lead north and south.

Salamanders Fire Pit^
    You are standing on a precarious catwalk high above a pit of molten fire.
Huge walls of fire and molten rock leap up around you, in stunning crescendos of
sound and light. By some strange chance, maybe magical, the fires never touch
the path itself.

Crystal Fire^
    You are standing in a huge crystal carved hall, designed so that the
glittering crystal walls pick yup the fiery light from around you and scatter it
back in rainbows of red and yellow light. A single arched crystal doorway leads
southwards.

Fiery Crack^
    You stand att the top of a huge fiery crack gazing down into the boiling
flame beyond. The ground shakes and trembles under the continued pounding
from deep beneath the world.

Fiery Passage^
    You are walking down a narrow fiery passage, the walls glow and pulsate
with a dull red light. You have to tread carefully to avoid burnig yourself
on some of the hotter parts of the floor. The passage leads east and west,
and a turning leads north towards a fiery pit.

Burning Gardens^
    You are standing in a wide open room. The ceiling ends in a fancy wave of
rolled gold, which artfully reflects the fiery red skies down across the pools
of molten metal which form the centrepiece of the room. The light from the skies
and the molten pits flickers around the room, flashing off the polished and
carved golden walls.

Fiery Ledge^
    You stand on a wide golden path, set on a high ledge overlooking a huge
crater. The tremendous flames and explosions shake the whole mountain around
you, making the fiery red skies seem to vibrate and dance with each flash and
rumble. The ledge goes back underground to the east and west.

Fiery Tunnel^
    You are walking along a trembling, and shaking volcanic tunnelof some sort.
The glowing walls are thick with sulphur, and the smell of sulphur and
sulphurous oxides makes you want to throw up. The passage enters some open air
ampitheatre, maybe a crater of some sort, to the west, but to the east it 
continues towards some steps.

The Foot Of The Golden Stairs^
    You are standing at the foot of a huge golden staircase, which rises out
upwards out of sight, reflecting the fiery red light, like a river of molten
flame. Passages lead east and west to other halls.

The Golden Stairs^

The Fire Hall^
    You are standing in the centre of a vast hall, lit by huge fountains
of molten rock. The walls are carved, and inlaid with polished gold
so that they reflect huge fiery figures, in a stunning almost lifelike fashion.
A huge arched doorway leads east, while to the west there is a small bronze
door.

The Fiery Kings Hall^
    You stand in a small fantastially carved hall, decorated with millions of
reflecting crystals which collect the fiery red which glows through a
huge glass dome high above you, and scattering it around the hall, so that
the ruddy glow of its walls burns like some incandescent hell.
    There is a small bronze door to the east.
