bank1 light
Bank of river.
You are stood on the grassy, west bank of a fast-flowing river. The
river flows from the north to the south, where can be seen a ford
across it. To the west you can see a tumble-down stable, and in the
distance north of that, mountains. On the opposite bank of the river
is dense forest.
bank2 light
%bank1
This is the west bank of a river, which flows north to south very
quickly. The opposite bank is forested, but here the ground is clear.
To the northwest rise the steep slopes of a tall mountain, its peak
towering high above the clouds.
bank3 light
%bank1
This is a narrow strip of land wedged between a fast-flowing river to
the east, and a (climbable) mountain to the west. The river cuts its
way north-south, and makes quite some noise. You can't see much of what
the landscape on the opposite bank is like for the trees there.
bank4 light
%bank1
You find yourself on the bank of a fast-flowing river, where the
heath to the west is parted from the forest on the opposite bank. The
river flows from the north, and continues to the south, cutting off a
narrow strip of land trapped between it and the steep mountain you spy
to the southwest.
bank5 light
%bank1
Flowing from the northeast and curving viciously to the south is a
fast-flowing river, upon the banks of which you now find yourself
situated. On the opposite bank are trees, although the river is too
quick to enable your swimming across. To the north is a curious, ornate
wall, decorated in exotic, colourful designs of seemingly eastern
origin. The wall is too tall to climb, as is the enormous hedge you find
to the west, over the top of which you can just see what looks to be a
belfry. The hedge stops on the edge of some trees, which are clumped
together to the southwest.
belfry small
Inside belfry.
You find yourself at the bottom of a belfry stood in a forest clearing.
Outside, to the east the way is blocked by a huge hedge, and to the
north is an ornate wall, decorated in colourful, oriental friezes.
Elsewhere is more forest. The tower of the belfry rises high above
you, but you can't climb the walls.
briar light
Briar patch.
You are gingerly pushing your way through a prickly briar patch,
skillfully avoiding being scratched from the many thorns about. To
the north runs an east-west road, and to the east is a yard outside
an old inn. South lies pasture, beyond which is a river, and west are
the foothills of a majestic mountain, spearing its way through the
fluffy clouds.
bridge light
Bridge over river.
You are crossing a narrow, wooden bridge over a fast-flowing river.
To the west lie the dark oaks of an evil wood, with the noise made by
the river only adding to the eerie effect of their hideous shadows. At
the eastern end of the bridge is a small island, bereft of trees, yet
looking quite lush compared to the fearsome dark of the forest.
dead1 light death
Did you think you could fly? Sorry if I gave that impression...
dead2 light death
You jump up and down, but the extra force is too much for the part
of the swamp where you stand, and to your horror you find yourself
being sucked under! Well that's something not to try again, eh?
dead3 light death
The volatile marsh gases catch light from your naked flame, and before
you know it, #WHOOMSH#...
efrst1 light
Dense forest.
You are wandering around in some dense forest on the west bank of a
fast-flowing river. To the north, the river is crossed by a ford, and
to the south it runs beside a meadow, beyond which you can see what
looks like a belvedere of some kind. At that point the river splits,
and curves round to the southwest of where you stand. West, the forest
seems to be primarily of fruit trees, and northwest through the greenery
you can see what looks like a well.
epstre light
East pasture.
You are standing in lush pasture, irrigated by a river which curves from
being to the east round to the north and continuing west of there to the
northwest of where you stand. The pasture carries on to the west and
southwest, but south is some rougher pasture which isn't so good.
ewd1 light
Evil wood.
You are wandering around in among the hideously deformed oaks of an evil
wood. To the north and east runs a river, and west is a rough pasture.
The wood gets thicker to the south, where it continues in an almost
impenetrable darkness...
ewd2 light
%ewd1
You are forcing your way through the ancient, misshapen oaks which make
up an evil wood. The only ways out which do not involve continuing
into the denseness of the trees are to the north and west. Otherwise,
the darkness envelops...
ewd3 light
%ewd1
You are thrusting your way through a mangled assortment of aged oak
trees which are part of an evil wood. Northwards, the trees give way to
a rough pasture, and to the easterly directions they continue in the
same density as here. Other directions, however, the forest becomes too
thick for you to force your way through...
ewd4 light
%ewd1
You are in the midst of an evil wood, surrounded by gnarled oaks of
ancient origin. The forest continues all around you, in a darkness
which seems unnatural, although to the south and southwest it appears
too thick to move through...
ewd5 light
%ewd1
You are in the depths of a murky, evil wood, its gloomy oaks seeming to
stare down at you as though watching your every movement. All around,
the forest continues, although in the southerly directions it appears
too thick to enable passage...
ewd6 light
%ewd1
You are in an evil wood, on the west bank of a fast-flowing river. The
malformed oaks which enclose the area loom over you, throwing the whole
place into deep shadow. The wood continues in all directions except the
east, where the river runs, although to the south it is too dense for
you to venture that way...
ewd7 light
%ewd1
You are in the middle of an evil wood, built up over many centuries from
a ghastly assortment of wizened oaks, twisted into a tangled
conglomeration. The forest continues in all directions...
ewd8 light
%ewd1
This is part of an evil wood, on the west bank of a fast-flowing river.
The knotted, wicked-looking oaks continue in the south and westerly
directions, but other ways is the river. Through the trees, to the east,
can be seen a small bridge which spans the river to an island in mid-
stream...
ewd9 light
%ewd1
You are pushing your way through the forlorn branches of some ancient
oaks in the middle of an evil wood. All around, the wood continues, its
oppressive gloom enveloping the entire scene...
ewd10 light
%ewd1
You are stood in the very heart of an evil wood, its intense blackness
and eerie silence casting fear into your soul. The dense, warped oaks
carry on in all directions, and their thick branches obscure the sky
from view...
gazebo light small silent
Inside gazebo.
This is an ornate and elegant gazebo, built on a small eminence to
afford a better prospect of the surrounding countryside. North can
be seen a lush meadow, beyond which is a forest, and further still
a mountain. East is a fast-flowing river, which splits in two and
curves from the north round to the west, as well as continuing to the
south. Over the river can be seen forest, although south the trees are
of a hideous, misshapen form.
heath1 light
Rough heath.
You are striding across a rough heath, between a forest in the north
and a mountain to the south. East is the bank of a river, and west the
heath continues. Through the trees to the north can be glimpsed a
small tower of some kind.
heath2 light
%heath1
You are walking across a rough heath, which continues to the east, west
and southwest. South is the base of a large mountain, the peak of which
is partly obscured by the clouds which flank it some way up. North from
here is mainly forest, although in the distance to the northwest is an
enormous mountain, more majestic than the other.
heath3 light
%heath1
This is a band of rough heathland, which curves from the south to
continue to the east. Southeast lies the base of a large mountain, but
northwest are the foothills of one even larger, and far more majestic.
North is forest, through which can be espied an ornate wall.
heath4 light
%heath1
You are scrambling over a rough heath, which rises out of a deep valley
to the south and carries on to the north and northeast. East is the
bottom of a large mountain, and west lie the foothills of an even
greater peak. The ground here is very awkward to walk on, but you can
keep your footing without too much trouble.
inn light
Inside the "Admiral Bombow" inn.
You stand inside what used to be a cheery, hospitable tavern, which has
now unfortunately fallen into a state of gross disrepair. All the
windows have long since been smashed, and now only a howling wind
whistles through where once there was warmth and light.
island light
Small island.
You are stood on a small island in the middle of a fast-flowing river.
The only exit is via a bridge to the west, which crosses the river into
a dark, evil wood. The island itself, mysteriously enough, has no trees,
but apart from that there is plenty of vegetation.
meadow light
Riverside meadow.
You are strolling through a pleasant meadow on the west bank of a fast-
flowing river. The river splits further to the south, and one branch
meanders northwards to end up to the west of where you stand. North
is a forest, and northwest a more cultivated section which seems to be
an orchard. South, by the fork in the river, stands a gazebo.
mmtn1 light
Middle mountain.
You are on the north face of a steep, yet climbable, mountain. Above
you to the south the slopes rise into the clouds, and poking out
through the top you espy the peak. The mountain continues at this level
to the southeast and southwest, whereas northwards is heathland.
mmtn2 light
%mmtn1
This is the west face of a steep mountain. The summit lies beyond a
mantle of cloud which encircles the mountain just above you. Southwards
and to the northeast the mountain continues at this level, but to the
southwest it descends into a deep valley. North and west lie heaths,
and beyond them the mighty slopes of another mountain.
mmtn3 light
%mmtn1
You are clambering about the southwest face of the Middle mountain.
Just above you, to the northeast, lie clouds hugging the slopes and
obscuring the summit. The mountain continues at roughly your present
altitude to the north and east, but to the west the gradient increases
dramatically and plunges into a deep valley. Southwards is a badly-paved
road running east to west, and beyond that to the southeast is another
mountain thrusting above the clouds.
mmtn4 light
%mmtn1
This is a steep, yet thankfully climbable, mountain. The present height
above sea level is maintained to the west and northeast, but to the
north the mountain rises into the clouds and beyond. To the east you can
see a stable, and further still, a deep river. To the south is a badly-
paved road running east-west, on the opposite side of which there is an
inn.
mmtn5 light
%mmtn1
You are now scaling the rugged east face of the middle mountain.
Although steep, it is still possible to ascend (into the mists which
drape the mountain beneath the peak) and descend (onto the banks of a
river to the east). At the same altitude, the mountain continues to the
northwest and southwest, and ceases to the south where is nestled a
ramshackle old stable.
mmtn6 light

mmtn10 light
Top of middle mountain.
The marvellous panoramic view this spot affords is breath-taking in its
splendour. Lower down the mountain, beyond the wreaths of cloud which
circle this peak, are heaths to the north, beyond which is forest. To
the east at the bottom can be seen a fast-flowing river, running from
the north to diverge some way south, by a meadow. South, there is an
old inn close by an east-west road, and southwest is another mountain.
The scene is dominated, however, by a third mountain to the northwest,
so immense that it dwarfs either of the other two. Its ancient slopes
are shrouded in mist, with rugged cliffs running for hundreds of feet
just below.
nfrst1 light
%efrst1
You are wandering around in some dense forest. East, the forest
continues, and to the south lie heathlands. West are the foothills of a
majestic mountain, which towers high up above the clouds. Your progress
north is blocked by an ornate wall, decorated in exotic, eastern
patterns, which stops at the base of an enormous cliff at roughly the
same spot the forest ends to the west.
nfrst2 light
%efrst1
You find yourself stood in a section of dense forest, which continues to
the west and southeast. Through the trees to the east can be seen the
tower of what looks to be a belfry, and south is heath. Northwards is
a strange, ornate wall, curiously enlivened by all manner of stylised
eastern symbols.
nfrst3 light
%efrst1
You are wandering around in some dense forest to the north of some
sprawling heathlands. Eastwards is the bank of a fast-flowing river,
and northwest the forest continues. To the north, however, through the
trees, can be seen a clearing containing some sort of edifice.
nhill1 light
Foothills.
These are the rolling foothills of a majestic mountain which towers
high above you some way to the north, beyond some higher foothills.
South is an east-west road, across which can be seen yet more foothills
of a slightly smaller mountain. East lies a deep valley, which rises up
into a heath to the northeast of where you stand. West is a sturdy wall,
too large to scale.
nhill2 light
%nhill1
You are stood amongst the foothills of a majestic mountain, which rises
to the north. South and northeast are more foothills, and east lies a
heath. Your movement west is prevented by a large wall, built to repel
intruders such as yourself.
nhill3 light
%nhill1
You are clambering about the foothills of a majestic mountain which
climbs above the clouds to the north. Unfortunately, there is a towering
cliff there, too large to ascend, but part of the mountain, to the west,
is accessible. Southwest lie further foothills, and southeast is all
heath. Northeast is a forest.
nmtn1 light
Forested part of north mountain.
You are stood in amongst some trees which cloak the lower slopes of a
majestic mountain, rising to the north above the timber-line. West, the
forest becomes too dense for you to proceed, and south is a wall, also
blocking your way. All other directions, the mountain continues,
although southeast is only foothills.
nmtn2 light
North mountain.
You are scaling the lower slopes of a majestic mountain. Its peak lies
high above the clouds far to the north, although progress that way is
only limited due to an interposing cliff which stands out boldly after
some more climbable slopes. South are foothills.
nmtn3 light
%nmtn2
You are standing in the lower slopes of a majestic mountain, which
rises to the north and descends to the east and south into foothills.
nmtn4 light
%nmtn2
You are scrambling up the slopes of a majestic mountain which spears
through the clouds far to the north, above a steep cliff. East lie
foothills, and there are lower slopes to the south. The sheer
immensity of the mountain takes your breath away.
nmtn5 light
%nmtn2
You are stood in the lower slopes of a majestic mountain beside a
huge cliff to the north, which towers high above you. So rugged is the
cliff that you cannot climb it, only gasp at the geological wonder of
it all. The mountain slopes downwards to the south, and continues at the
same level to the west.
nmtn6 light
%nmtn2
You are in the corner of a horseshoe-shaped cliff, which curves round
from the north to the west, blocking your way. All around you in other
directions lie the slopes leading up to the cliff, which towers high
above you, ending just below the clouds.
nmtn7 light
%nmtn2
You are ascending the lower slopes of a majestic mountain, which
forces its way through the clouds further to the north, above a rugged
cliff beyond where the slopes end. The cliff curves round, and blocks
your immediate passage to the west, although in other directions the
comparatively gentle slopes lead down to the foothills.
nmtn8 light
%nmtn2
You are climbing the slopes of a majestic mountain, which continue to
rise awesomely in the northern and western directions, and descend less
spectacularly to the south and east.
npstre light
North pasture.
You are treading over the soft grass of a gorgeous pasture. To the north
is a river, which continues to the northeast and flows beneath a
mountain to the northwest. East, west and south, the pasture continues,
yet to the southeast it becomes much rougher and more desolate. To the
southwest lies forest.
orchrd light
Ancient orchard.
You stand among the aged trees of an orchard. Most of them are apple
trees, but there is the occasional pear tree to add character. None
bear fruit or leaves, however, which makes the scene unnaturally
desolate. East and west from here are normal forests, and southeast is a
sweet meadow. South and southwest is a river, and north is a yard,
beyond which is an inn.
pines1 light
Pine forest.
You are pushing your way through the pine needles in a dense forest.
Eastwards, the make-up of the forest changes to normal, deciduous trees.
Northeast is a pasture, and north can be smelled a fuming swamp. In all
other directions the pines get thicker, and you probably won't be able
to get through.
river1 light death hideaway
You have left The Land.
river2 light
Fast-flowing river.
You are wading through a fast-flowing, yet shallow, river, which
originates from a fork in a much faster river to the southeast, and
continues to the northwest. North is an orchard, which by the northeast
has become a normal forest. East is a meadow, south of which is a
gazebo. To the west lies a lush pasture, but southwest it is rough and
desolate.
river3 light
%river2
This is a river flowing from the southeast to the west. On the south
bank lie exclusively pastures, and on the north, forest. The forest
directly to the north seems to be an orchard of some kind, and through
the trees there can be seen a building.
river4 light
%river2
You are stood by a river, flowing from the east to the west, where it
disappears under a mountain. Foothills of the mountain are to the
northwest, covered in forest which extends to the north of your current
position, and become an orchard to the northeast. In all southerly
directions are pastures of soft, deep-green grass.
road1 light
Badly-paved road.
You are stood on a badly-paved road between a mountain, to the north,
and a wayside inn, to the south. East, the road fords a fast-flowing
river, and west it continues. To the northeast is a ramshackle old
building, and southeast there seems to be a well of some kind.
road2 light
%road1
You find yourself on a badly-paved road, which continues to the east and
west. North and northeast are the lower regions of a mountain, which
rises up beyond the clouds. Southeast is a yard, belonging to an inn
which can be seen just beyond it. South is a briar patch, and southwest
the foothills of a more impressive mountain. Northwest is a deep valley,
whose western slopes rise up to the foothills of a mountain more
majestic still. The view is quite breathtaking.
road3 light
%road1
You are walking along a badly-paved east-west road. From here can be
seen three mountains: one to the northeast; one to the south and south-
west; and one to the northwest, which is the largest. To the north,
between two of the mountains, lies a deep valley. The only other nearby
feature is a briar patch to the southeast.
road4 light
%road1
You are stood on a badly-paved road, which runs from the east to stop
at a large wall constructed to the west. There is a narrow gap in this
blockage, but it is so tight that if you wanted to go that way you'd
have to drop everything to get through. North and south are the foot-
hills of a pair of majestic mountains, and northeast is a deep valley.
rough light
Rough pasture.
You are stood in a bleak, rough pasture. This seems to be due to the
presence of an evil wood to the east and south, for north and west are
more pastures which seem to be far greener and lusher than here. South-
west is a forest, and northeast there seems to be a fast-flowing river.
sfrst1 light
%efrst1
You are standing in a dense forest. It continues to the southeast at
a passable level, but south it is too thick to allow movement through.
Westwards it becomes a pine forest. North, northeast and east are
pastures, and northwest lies a festering, fuming swamp.
sfrst2 light
%efrst1
This is a forest, to the south of a pasture. The trees continue in most
directions, but only to the northwest are they thinly spread enough to
enable your walking through. Northwest is another pasture, but rougher
than the first.
shill1 light
%nhill1
You are stood in among the foothills of a majestic mountain to the
south. North is a narrow road which runs east-west, and everywhere else
is more mountain. Your progress to the west is impeded by a strong wall,
built to keep out trespassers.
shill2 light
%nhill1
You are standing in the foothills of a tall mountain, which rises away
to the southwest. North is a badly-paved road, which runs east-west, and
east is a briar patch. There are more foothills to the west, and to the
south are forested slopes of the mountain.
smtn1 light
South mountain.
You are clambering around the slopes of a tall mountain, which rises up
to the northeast into the clouds. North and east the mountain is at the
same level as here, and to the southeast it slops down into a gentle
pasture. Southwest is a swamp, fuming with marsh-gases, and west is the
top of a tall cliff, which looks very dangerous...
smtn2 light
%smtn1
This is a steep climb at the base of a tall mountain. Further heights
are to the west and northeast at this level (the latter area covered in
forest), and north and northwest where the clouds hug the slopes. The
mountain lowers slowly in the southerly directions to become pastures.
East, a river flows and disappears under the mountain beneath where you
now stand.
smtn3 light
Forested part of south mountain.
Your are stood amongst the trees in the forested slopes of the south
mountain. There is more forest to the east, and the mountain ascends to
the west, its peak hidden from view by the clouds near the top. North
are foothills, and northeast a briar patch. Southeast flows a river.
smtn4 light
Misty part of south mountain.
smtn5 light
%smtn4
smtn6 light

smtn7 light

You are on a steep slope to the west of a tall mountain. The mountain
continues in all directions, although to the east you can see nothing
for the clouds, and to the west there is a large wall in the way.
smtn8 light
%smtn4
smtn9 light
Top of south mountain
You are standing at the very peak of the south mountain. A glorious
view is to be beheld all around. To the northeast is a mountain, on
the opposite side of a road from some building. To the north is a third
mountain much larger than either of the other two, and far more
majestic. South lie pastures, and southeast is an evil-looking wood,
hard up against the side of a river, in which can be seen a small
island. West, over a wall just visible through the clouds, is a stange,
anachronistic world, centred around a house.
spstre light
South pasture.
This is a pleasant pasture, which spreads far away in all the northerly
directions; eastwards, it becomes rougher. There is forest everywhere
else.
swamp1 light hideaway sanctuary nolook dmove uswamp
You are waylaid in a fuming swamp.
stable
Stable.
This ramshackle old stone building is what is left of a once proud
stable. It has sadly fallen into disrepair, due to the constant
battering of the elements, nestled as it is to the southeast of a
towering mountain. To the east is a river bank, the river running
north-south and forded to the southeast of where you now stand. To
the southwest, running west from the ford, is a badly-paved road,
beside which is an inn, the patrons of which stabled their horses here
before The Land became what it is today.
start light startrm
Ford across river.
You are stood on a ford across a fast-flowing river. To the west is a
badly-paved road, which carries on into the distance. Northwest is a
ramshackle old building, and southwest is some sort of well. South lies
a forest, and north is the west bank of the river you now cross. The
east bank leads away, out of The Land.
uswamp light death sanctuary
Bottom of swamp.
If you can read this, you used magic!
valley light
Valley between mountains.
This is a beautiful and awesome sight. You are stood in a deep valley,
carved between two tall mountains, to the west and east, eons ago. The
steep slopes are barely climbable, and abound in curious fauna and
strange, half-shadowed creatures. South, outside the valley, is an
east-west road, and north is heathland. This place is very eerie.
wayout light nolook chain mud start
You force yourself through the narrow gap...
wellrm light
Well near inn.
You stand beside what used to be a well, but which on closer inspection
seems to be blocked off now. West is an inn, for which the well was
probably originally constructed, although some way to the east can be
heard running water. North is an east-west road, and southwest an
orchard of mainly apple trees. Southeast is dense forest.
wfrst1 light
%efrst1
This is dense forest, at the bottom of a majestic mountain to the west.
The trees continue up the mountain, and there is an orchard to the east.
North is a briar patch, and south is an east-west flowing river. To the
Northeast is a yard adjacent to an old inn.
wpstre light
West pasture.
This is a pasture which sprawls at the feet of a majestic mountain to
the north. The pasture continues to the east and southeast, but south
and southwest are forests. West, the pasture ends beside a fuming swamp.
yard1 light
Side yard of inn.
This is a narrow yard at the western side of an inn. North is a badly-
paved raod, and west a briar patch. Southeast, the yard becomes the back
yard of the inn.
yard2 light
Back yard of inn.
This is a wide yard to the south of an old tavern, and continues to the
side of it to the northwest. South is an orchard, and southwest is a
forest. To the east there seems to be a well, near the inn.
