The death of [56 Brigand] Jixam -=<[ The Thunder ]>=- (Minotaur)

in Nearing a River

from the perspective of [56 Brigand] Jixam -=<[ The Thunder ]>=- (Minotaur)


A Cobblestone Intersection
   It is here that two roads converge to form an intersection. Both roads were
made of a cobblestone that seems to have been paved over the years by constant
walking upon by the cow's within this town. Caravans and machines of war have
no trouble traversing this intersection, for it is truly grand. A small forest
sits to the east and must have some sort of grove within it, for why would it
still be standing? Birds can be heard chirping from it and animals are sure to
reside there. Large buildings loom in any direction along either road. Toward
the west it seems as though there are residential buildings, while to the north
it would appear that many commercial and various buildings reside, and finally
to the south there are many different types of buildings.

Small Cobblestone Road
   The small cobblestones that have been laid some time ago to create this
road are paved and provide an easy traversing. Wheels glide over this section
of the town quite easily one would think. The dirt off the side of the road
and in-between the cracks of the stones would often times become airborne by
the wind during the day. It would pick up ever so slightly and collide with
a traveler or a building of some sort. The wind when it does this makes a
sharply pitched noise, an eerie noise during the night. There are no poles,
no lanterns, nor any sort of evidence that this road is difficult to travel
during the night, unaccomplished travelers need not worry.

A Town Center
   This is the point where small roads intersect and go their separate
ways. Either of the roads were not finely made, but rather loosely put
together. The cobblestones that were used to construe them are evenly
paved and provide an smooth surface adequate for transporting caravans
and other various machines of war. Some lightly packed dirt on either
side of the trail and in-between the cobblestones look to have been
walked and trampled upon for many ages, hinting at the age of this
encampment. One would think that after such a time a town would prosper
into a city, that is not the cow's way however. Although they are not
the most savage and brutal race on Duris, they are by no means gentle, nor
are they stupid. In fact, most minotaurs possess a very intelligent mind,
if not sinister in nature. It is perfectly natural for these people to
live within small towns and seek refuge only within their own tribe.

Bank of Nax'Varan
   The bank is nothing more than a long cabin made of wood. It has a
circumference of about thirty feet and the height from the floor to the
ceiling is teen feet. A count lays on the eastward perimeter of the room,
however, just where they do keep their money, where is the vault they
undoubtably need to store their money safely. Since the cabin isn't all that
large, it suggests that the vault is under the bank itself. The floor creaks
as footsteps pounce on it. The floor is suffering from old age and the lumber
is rotting, however, every other aspect of the bank is fine.

A Path of Dirt
   Some little rocks are visible along this dirt road. Mud doesn't totally
eclipse them just yet, however, the once totally enveloping trail to the east
has transformed into something that of a road of rocks, paved rocks. These
rocks seem to be made of cobblestone and provide easy access for all of those
who wish to traverse it. Weathering seems to have no hold upon these rocks,
for they have truly survived the test of time. Brushes and large patches of
weeds lay on either side of the path, guarding the algae covered water. Dead
trees lay about the area, however, all are out of reach and lay in shallow
pools of water that makes up the swamp to the east.

A Muddy Trail
   Sounds of the town to the west fill the air. Everything in the swampy forest
to the east seems to stir stir ever so slightly when anyone enters their waste
land. Many types of tracks lay below in the muck, some of these tracks were
made by minotaurs, however, many were made by reptiles. Mud inhibits travelling
tand makes progress very difficult. On either side of the pathway of mud lay
the dead swamp aspect of the area. Water envelopes most of the swamp forest's
ground, with a large number of standing and fallen trees alike. Back to the
west, a cobblestone road opens up and leads toward the town.

suppose, simply because nearly all of the flesh has rotten away exposing the
skull underneath. Flies swarm the area, small ponds of water alongside many
dead tress outline the area. Below, the ground is very soggy, the muck slows

A Muddy Trail through the Swamp
   A horrible stench fills the area, a stench resembling that of maneaur that
all cows drop. The plumbing from the town has to run somewhere, so why not
here. From the smell of it, every minotaur in the city must have dropped many
loads during his trip to the latrine. Most of the swamp is shallow, yet that
doesn't matter, progress is still very difficult. Atop of some dead trees,
the fallen ones, moss and a variety of plant life grow steadily. Only the
reptiles live within proximity of this smell, for what do they care.

An Old Trail
   Small rocks are swallowed whole by the mud and the various weeds that
arbitrary grow here. Below, on the ground, there resembles something that once
could have been a road, but the vegetation alongside a lack of effort to
maintain it resulted in its erosion by the many elements that envelope the
swamp. Dead trees outline the parameter, with hordes of vines hanging from
them, which prohibits vision further. The wind makes a wheezing sound as it
passes through the vines and empty tree branches. A slight smell fills the
air, the smell of maneaur. It is very foul.

A Long Winding Trail of Mud
   Mud envelopes the path, making progress for any heavily burdened minotaur
carrying the spoils of war, slow. The muck sinks a foot deep and stretches
the entire trail, never to let up. Along the trail, on either side, the rocky
aspect of the swamp comes to life. A large amount of boulders lay scattered
about the area, they look to have been pushed for they still have leave a
crater trail from point to point. Just where these boulders were pushed to
is inapprehensible at the moment, for they are not in sight. A horrible smell
sweeps the area, the smell of mud, which resembles maneaur.

Before a Wooden Bridge
   Huge boulders rest off to the side of the trail, which is full of mud. Small
puddles of water form within the footsteps of a few massive trolls. Other
markings are among the mud, reptilian tracks are visible, their slithering
ways are hard to miss. The area is turning into a mud land, as opposed to
a swampy forest, however, the swamp is visible just to the west, along with
its dark and smelly ways. Alligators noisily splash in the swamp, they've no
doubt caught some prey and are twisting and turning in a death spiral to shake
the life out of its dinner. Crocodiles like their meat tender, which is why
bury their lunch in the bottom of the swamp, waiting for an hour until they
actually feast upon the flesh. The river to the east has a bridge above it.
The bridge is tied to four huge boulders that are used to anchor it, the bridge
being made of rope and planks and all.

   A strong current allows this river to turn into a white water rapid
that runs towards the southeast. Rocks are visible among the river, for they

out into the river, whether one would survive on their own is left up to the

rapids normally bring, the smell of rain. Animals often come here to drink.
A hill slopes downward towards the river and it still rises to the east. The
white water of the river is caused by the ferociousness of the current
colliding with the rocks underneath that one rarely sees. A large rope and
wooden bridge is anchored by two boulders on this side and two boulders on the
