This should be my last batch of these big fixes. That's not to say there aren't still more things to fix. There certainly are. But, I expect my future fixes will be smaller.

A paved path~
|
|
You are standing at the edge of the city. From here, a short,
|
|
paved path leads toward the east. To the northeast is a large building,
|
|
its yard lined by an old fence of stone.

This is a modest zone with about 65 rooms. It is a little forest,
|
|
maybe east of Midgaard. The area was originally written for low-level
|
|
(say 1-10) players.

Before a small gate~
|
|
The paving turns toward the north, where stands a wooden gate at
|
|
the fence. A sign has been fastened on the gate, reading "Galeaufir's
|
|
Tavern". A brown path leads to the east, toward light forest.

The yard of the tavern~
|
|
This is a large yard growing plenty of grass and a few high bushes
|
|
here and there. The paving leads straight toward the tavern, but there
|
|
is also a faint trail to the west. This could be a place to have fun,
|
|
at least some voices of singing are heard from inside the building.

uses to be in places like this. However the inside is very tidy, see-

|
|
The walls here are paneled in some wood of various deep brown

|
tints. A large, wooden chandelier lits the room, making it very ho-

mely. The furniture is dominated by a tall desk close to the north
|
|
wall. Behind it there stands a large, impressive cupboard. To the
|
|
west is a high, arched doorway, above which a huge bearhead has been
|
|
fastened, welcoming the customers in.
|
|
Broad stairs lead up.

A smoky drawing-room~

You have arrived at a large drawing-room where quite an amount of

tobacco smoke hovers about, forcing you to cough loudly. Heavy chairs
|
|
and tables can be seen all around. The room is full of people, youngsters
|
|
and elders, riches and poors, all from the different social classes.
|
|
There is a wide collection of various hunting weapons on the western
|
|
wall. The room is warmed up by a massive fireplace.

A dusty room~
|
|
The room has been furnished by a small elegant table, a strong
|
|
bed, an old bookcase, and a chest of drawers. Somehow you feel that
|
|
it won't be hired out so often, although it seems that no one has
|
|
been here in a few weeks. But no doubt, there is someone's property
|
|
around...

A Guest Room~
|
|
The air in this room is musty, and it smells of hard liquor. On
|
|
the floor there lie a bundle of creased clothes and a couple of muddy
|
|
shoes. As you step toward the window you notice that the floor there
|
|
is sticky and covered in thousands of tiny glass fragments all around.
|
|
Obviously there has been a festival of some kind in the City at
|
|
last night.

At the forest edge~

You are walking on a brownish path that leads towards a light

forest to the east, and begins to wriggle its way there. A mild

chirping can be heard from somewhere nearby.
|

The city of XXXX is further away to the west.

thicket.

As you reach the marshland, the clouds of insects catch you

in their unpleasant embrace, penetrating your very equipment. You

move on quickly, over the damp hummocks and over the small pools of
|
|
black disgusting water, to escape those tiny winged beasts. Further
|
|
away to the north seems to be an another hillside, growing high trees.
|

Remainders of a bridge-like structure still lie here, leading
|

across the marsh.

of the other wooden parts are mostly gone, and the grayish walls break

off so badly that you somewhat wonder how the building still stands. An

open doorway gives passage inside. To the north lies an old pen.

A chaotic room~

The room is in chaotic order. Parts of the upper floor have fallen

At the corners there lie several rottening books, bedraggled tapestries,
|

and broken vessels. Besides, the room appears partially burned.

A narrow path~
|
|
You step on a narrow path, engraved deep in the ground. Several
|
|
stones make your walking quite difficult, and you are worried about
|
|
your feet. The foliages form a green and inpenetrable "wall" around
|
|
the path which seems to descend to the east.

Under some massive roots~
|
|
Here the path goes very deep in the ground, almost as if it were
|
|
an ancient trench. Tremendous, gnarled roots from some brown and black
|
|
arches above. The path leads both to the west and east.

A small meadow~
|
|
You arrive at a small meadow that grows tall yellowish hay, swaying
|
|
slowly in the wind. The path leads towards the north, where you make out
|
|
some high osiers.

On a trail through high osiers~
|

Despite the thickness of these bushes you still detect the path and
|
|
walk on it easily. Now your trip begins to wind downwards, from where you
|
|
can hear some voices.

An ancient crater~
|
|
You find yourself standing at a vast and deep pit, obviously an
|
|
ancient crater with a diameter of 30 metres, at least. The bottom is
|
|
covered in brownish grass and there are several rough boulders around,
|
|
most of them black. Also you notice that the crater is full of small
|
|
folk, everyone directing towards a structure of some kind further away
|
|
to the east.

At the crater~
|
|
With the brownies you start approaching the structure as well.
|
|
It looks like a wooden dais, on where a couple of beings are sitting,
|
|
deep in their discussion. Behind them there stands what could be a
|
|
totem or a statue of some kind. Yet you do not know what this all is
|
|
about, but no doubt this place must be of great importance and sanctity
|
|
for these people.

The Ceremony Plateau~
|
|
The dais has been grinded very smooth. Four green pictures cover
|
|
its surface, representing fine trees. Each picture points to the sepa-
|
|
rate cardinal direction. In the middle of the dais stands a tall, wooden
|
|
statue, resembling an impressive woman, clad in clothes made of large
|
|
leaves and garments.
|
|
The brownies assemble to the foot of the dais and you feel the
|
|
atmosphere running high.

statue woman~
|
|
The statue is of light wood and appears very skillfully carved. The woman it
|
|
presents has a tall lenght of straight hair almost reaching her legs. Worn on
|
|
her head is a crown made of the most beautiful flowers, barely found in every
|
|
forest. Couple of small birds are sitting on her shoulders, seemingly listening
|
|
earnestly. This must be the Queen of the forest herself.
