Approaching a Farm's Gate..
   The trail here leads straight towards a farm gate that lies half-
opened. The dimness makes it difficult to see further, but there seem
to be overgrown dying fields to the south.  The sounds of the remaining
inhabitants of this poor village grow dim, a silence engulfing the area
as you go nearer to the apparently abandoned farm.

The shutters are all skewed, windows broken and boarded over, the front
steps are warped and squeak under your feet.  You enter the room to see
that indeed, someone lives here, in fact, it looks like this farmhouse
was left totally untouched by the devastation elsewhere.  The old farmer
looks up from his meal, astounded at the abrupt entry of strangers into
his home.  His grey-haired wife drops her cooking pot on the
floor in surprise.  Your only exit is south.

Market Square
   This is the small square where the villagers used to ply their wares.
But, alas, with the coming of troubles, the market benches are scattered
in broken heaps around the area, rotted husks and produce petrified on
the ground.  Under one cart you can see white bones gleaming in the
dim light.  In the center is a dried up well.  The exits you see are

The Tunnels Circle Around...
   The tunnels seem to go on forever here.. the black walls reflecting
any light, all sounds echoing so that one does not know where the
source may be.  It looks as though hardly any passersby have been
through this area in the recent past due to the total lack of any
sort of footprints or tracks in the dust.
You can go east, or west.

Quiet in the Tunnels..
   The tunnels here seem to be relatively quiet as compared to
the others.  However, if you listen hard, you can still hear
faint growls echoing faintly.  The walls are smooth, slick with
seepage, the floors are surprisingly easy to walk.  Your exits

 Hint: -- MONEY -- Get a pick from a shop and go find mines on the map. They are shown as little m's. Type mine with the pick wielded. When you discover ore, you can sell it at shops throughout duris. Some shops pay more for the ore! By the way, you can go to a weaponsmith shopkeeper to repair the pick, which is far more cost effective than purchasing a new one.
