On the path to the Forbidden Tower
   This path leads towards the Forbidden Tower, home to the Baron.
Flanking this path is a pond full of colorful fish.  Seperating the
pond and this path is brick layed perfectly, cut out of black marble.
Every few feet is a freshly planted maple tree.  The not yet mature
tree sways gently in the soft breeze.
   To the west is a bridge.  To the north the path continues.

Entrance the Forbidden Tower
   Two stone gargoyle sentinels flank the entry way to this tower.
Below one is a sign.  Light from a nearby torch dances off the reflection
of the polished marble floor.  Intricate pilars reach some thirty
feet to the painted ceiling.  The paintings on the ceiling are
elaborate pieces of art, each a portrait of the Keep's previous
barons.  Oak furniture cushioned with soft stirge feathers is precisely
placed so as to enhance the rooms decor.  On one wall is a huge
oval mirror framed in gold leaf.

In the Baron's Training Room
   The room has walls which are padded with plush cushions.  In the
corner is a rack full of various types of weapons from which the 
Baron may choose to practice with.  Heavy looking stones are piled
againstone of the walls.  Most of the stones have thick rope wrapped 
around them so has to form a handle.  These rocks are probably used
by the Baron to increase his strength.  Around the walls, at intervals
between the cushions, are a number of lit torches.  The room
is fairly large and has high vaulted ceilings.  A balancing beam 
cuts the room in half and runs north to south.  There is a door
to the north here.
Obvious exits: -North -East  -South

upon the room.  There is a solid looking door to the north.
