A Scraggly Trail~
   This trail slopes up and away from the main road to 
the west.  At points the trail seems to fade into 
obscurity against the grey stone and near-grey mountain 
grass prevalent here.  The trail leads generally eastward 
and up higher into the rocky ground.  There is a sign 
here, seemingly out-of-place in this rough country.

A Scraggly Trail~
   What could barely be called a trail leads west back 
down the mountainside, and down into a very small valley 
where a small house sits in the middle of a well-groomed 
yard.  The door to the house is open and inviting, 
welcoming you for a visit.

A Groomed Path~
   You are standing in the western end of a very, very 
small valley, just about room enough for the one house 
standing to your east.  You can see from here that the 
door to the cozy cottage is open and inviting, but the 
interior seems very dark.  A path bordered by shrubberies 
leads up to the structure, and ends where you are 
standing; right by the easiest path back up into the 
mountains.

Outside A House~
   The path you are on leads from the front door of the
cottage to your east, to the edge of the small valley
to the west.  The building seems quiet...almost too
quiet.  A small voice in the back of your head, the
same voice that has saved your life on countless
occasions, seems to be telling you that something is
very, very wrong here.

The Smithery~
   Devastation greets your eyes.
   The forge has been blasted apart, along with most of 
the back door.  Hammers, tongs, and anvils lie about in 
one gigantic mess, and the smith's bed smoulders yet.  
This place has been utterly wrecked and blasted apart, by 
more than one man you would think from all the tracks in 
the dust...

tell tale of the smith/mage Gabadiel's masterwork: a sword of unequalled power,
and two swords that came before, discarded as 'Not quite what I was working
towards'.  Looking around, you notice a distinct lack of any swords.  You think

Unfortunately, it seems someone has been careless with a

ashes, and the remains of a trail leading to the east edge
of this tiny valley.

    The mountain range continues north from here, and 
widens out into a small plateau just to your south.  Going
east and west from here would be a bad idea, considering 
the steepness of the drop.  From this height, you have a 
fairly good panoramic view to the south, including what 
appears to be a small mountain village to your south and 
west, and a tall, ominous peak westwards from here.

just south of a ridge that leads northwards through the 
rocky area.  To the east, south, and west are gentle 
slopes leading down into different areas of the mountains.
   A giant, dark peak looks down over you to the west, 
looking quite spooky indeed!

above, you see a plateau at the southern end of a long 
mountain ridge.  Surpisingly, there seems to be signs of 
traffic in this area, leading into the large depression 
here.  The going looks somewhat dangerous, and you decide 
to exercise a little caution.

A Small Plateau~
   You are standing upon another mini-plateau, bordered by
a sheer wall of rock to the north.  You can climb up the 
slope to the east, or continue along the flat area to the 
west.  Another slope leads downwards to the south, looking
unsafe but climbable.

the plateau continues, and you think you can climb up the 
steep rocky slope just west of here.  You are afforded a 
good view of the lower regions of this depression, and you
think you spot what might be a cave south and down from 
here...

to a small plateau that also looks considerably safer 
than your other choices.  The shale under your feet 
slips badly, and you are almost thrown off balance; 
this is no place to be without mountaineering equipment.

   You are standing on a point outcropping with a 
beautiful view of the mountains to the north.  Far 
below, you see what appears to be a foot-path climb 
up to the central mountain, a peak that looks dark 
and disturbing.  You get very bad vibes from that 
mountain for some reason, and it doesn't seem like 
a very good idea to try to find a way to get there.
   The only safe way to leave this overlook is to 
the south.

here, evidently the cause of much of the traffic.  
Looking up, you see sheer rock walls surrounding much 
of the depression, making an effective fortress of
this place.

A Cave Entrance~
   A cave leads into the heart of the mountainside, well-
lit by sconces upon the walls.  A large rock sits by 
the side here, near a small firepit.  Debris litters the 
area; rabbit bones, half of a broken whetstone, and random
litter.  The ground is devoid of grass, and well trodden 
by many pairs of boots.  Strange that someone should live 
so deep in the mountains...

   You are near the entrance of the cave.  The outside 
light streams in from the west, accompanied by a slight 
breeze, making the flames in the sconces flutter a bit
and throw stange shadows upon the walls.  This passageway 
heads north and south from here, each way seeming dark and
stuffy compared to outdoors.  From the tracks in the 
floor, you guess that the north is the more used.

mountain.  The light sconces keep the area bright enough 
to see, but not nearly bright enough for you to be quite 
comfortable in this strange place.  From far off you hear 
the echoes of what sound to be voices.

Eastwards the passageway continues into the shadowy 
recesses of the mountain uninvitingly.  The echoes of 
voices are confusing you a bit, and you are not sure 
whether you should try to remain quiet or not.

You feeled a bit chilled from the cooled cave air and

down to a valley where there seems to be a small village!  
What a village is doing this far from civilization, and how
they survive you've no idea.  From the smoke wafting from 
some of the chimneys, it looks like this place is still 
inhabited as well.

You are definitely bored by this place.  The people are 
listless, going about their daily chores with a slowness 
that pains your eyes.  A slope to the west climbs up the 
mountainside, and two open shops made of wood and stone 
are to your north and south.  East-wards this road continues.
   There is a small sign here.

   Hmm.  Looks like there's no one here, not even an bartender.
Evidently you've come during off hours, since no bar could be
THIS dull.  The walls are decorated with mounted animal heads
and arrows and longbows and other hunting equipment/trophies.
All of it looks rather plain.

Main Road~
   Nothing is going on in this section of village either.  To the
east is an actual road intersection, and to the west you see one
of the ends of this road.  A large grassy area to the south is
fenced off for a horse corral.

The Corral~
   Many horses look up at you when you enter this corral.
The horses are kept in by a big wooden fence, which they
seem quite happy to been kept in by.  You don't see anyone
around taking care of these horses, but someone is probably
close by.

The Intersection~
   You are standing in an intersection deep in the heart
of Stanneg by the Mountains.  In fact, this is the ONLY
intersection anywhere in Stanneg by the Mountain it 
appears.
   There are some buildings to the north, and south, and
east, and west.  None particularly stand out from the 
others.

A Small Road~
   This road runs north through Stanneg by the Mountains, 
if through would be the operative word for such a motley 
collection of buildings.  Westwards is a small, open-roofed
building that appears to be a farmer's market.  The road 
you are on continues north, and comes to an intersection 
just south of here.

   The interior of this home is simple and rustic.  A 
ladder leads up to the loft, where the sleeping pallets 
are tucked away.  A wood-burning stove keeps the place 
well heated and cozy.  A homemade rocking chair stands 
crooked in the corner, draped with a old looking afghan.  
This home is a nice place, very comfortable.

bare rug lies in the middle of the floor, evidently well-
loved by a cat or two from the quantity of hair on it.

the use of the locals.  Fairly plain, for a frequented

a mountain hanging above the stairs that lead back
down to the inn proper.

A Rocky Slope~
   This slope is fairly shallow and easy to walk on, 
despite the loose shale and gravel.  To the east is a high 
ridge you could stand on, and to the west is a flat area 
near two trails leading up and down into the mountains.  
High above you, to your west, is that ominous, dark peak, 
which seems to radiating a sense of hopelessness...

A Ledge~
   This ledge overlooks a small path that leads up and 
down from here.  Below, you see the path head down to a 
large flat area where a small cottage lies nestled in the 
mountains, smoke rising from it in a curling line.  Above, 
the path seems to head towards that dark peak piercing the 
sky.  You notice a few boot-tracks in the earth, seemingly 
to lead down towards the cottage.

Outside Of A Cottage~
   Now that you approach closer to the cottage, you notice 
that the smoke is not coming from the chimney, but rather 
the gutted ruins of the building.  Something torched this 
place, badly.  You see no signs of life among the wreckage.
You can enter one of the particularly large holes in the 
wall to the west, with caution.

   This whole place is smouldering still from whatever

dessicated corpse of a man, outstretched and blackened.  
There's not much to see here; whatever decided to destroy 
this place did it very well.

   This mountain trail leads straight up into the evil 
looking mountains.  High above you, one mountain peak 
seems to radiate danger and fear, and the trail seems 
to be leading straight up to it.  You wonder if it is 
wise to continue this way...
   The trail goes even higher up to the west, and back 
down to the west.

Near The Peak~
   This is as close to the peak as you're going to get, 
unless you use that tiny, tiny path leading up to your 
north.  Up the side of the mountain you see a great cave 
hollowed out, the inside pitch black.  The path leads down 
the mountains to your east, which seems to be the best 
place to go.

The size is stunning!  All around the entrance are burnt 
bones and various types of wooden and metal debris.  Giant 
claw marks are all along the ground, leading back deeper 
into the cave.
   Two tunnels lead off from here, one up, one down.  There
are claw marks leading in either direction.

drowning out everything else in the air and making it hard 
to breathe.  Something in your gut begins squirming 
uncomfortably as you wonder what's ahead...

The Lair~
   This place is huge!!!  It should be considering the 
dragon's great bulk.  However, instead of seeing the 
customary carnage and mound of gold that one is accustomed 
to seeing in a dragon lair, this one is decorated subtly 
with tapestries and drapes, and other comforts of human 
life.  There is even a huge-dragon sized bed -- undoubtedly 
conjured to life by its elder dragon owner.
