A Dark Hallway leading through the Keep
    The light through here is dim at best, and navigation through the hall is
is hard without the aid of outside help.  The walls of stone are covered with
tapestries of ancient battles in the elven lands.  A few of the wall hangings
have the symbols of the ancient Gods, and appear to be untouched by the sands
of time.   Other tapestries depict the fierce battles between the surface and
the subterranean elves in their zeal to conquer each other for the control of
all elves.  These paintings seem almost lifelike and very surreal.

Cobweb Covered Hallway
     The walls here are covered with spider webs, and are swarming with small
spiders climbing throughout the intricate work of webs.  It looks like anyone
walking through the maze of webs cannot help but become covered with the webs
while trying to cut a pathway through.  Past the webs, glimpses of light from
magical torches that adorn the walls can be seen.   Other than the webs, this
hallway appears as sturdy as the day it was built.   There seems to be no age
signs, no cracking or sagging in the support.

Courtyard of the Inner Sanctum
    Drawing closer into this part of the keep, there are cobwebs everywhere in
the room, except to the west where it leads down a small hallway.  There is an
eerie light  given off by the candelabras that adorn the halls and passageways
hinting at their magical nature.  Tapestries and artwork still line the walls,
unchanged from the day they were placed there, except for the cobwebs.  On the
left of the door there is a small wooden cabinet with intricate designs carved
on it.   There seems to be a solid wall of cobwebs to the east that completely

Grand Dining Room
    The walls and floors of this room appear well kept and there seems to not
be as much dust and cobwebs on them.a  A vast vaulted ceiling expands upward.
Set in the middle of the room is a round table made of pure marble which must
have been used for dining.  There appear to be no chairs for anyone to sit in
though there are marks on the floor that suggest that there were at one time.
A bright light in the western corner of the room flashes, then vanishes.

Courtyard of the Keep
   Coming closer to the gates of the keep's inner sanctum, you wonder how long
it has been since anyone has traveled within these hallowed walls. There seems
to be some grass from place to place that has been trodden down, yet you can't
help but wonder if it was humanoid or animals, as it appears that not much was
disturbed. The door to the sanctum seems secure.  As you draw closer you start
to think that it seems almost in perfect condition.

Outside the Walls of an Ancient Keep
     Traveling up the side of the hill, it appears that at one time there were
walls that were laid in stone surrounding the base of the hill.  The stone and
rubble from the wall seem to become more predominate the further you go up the
hill.  Ahead there is what appears to be an old keep whose walls have crumbled
and scattered over time.   Ivy grows over what may have been part of the entry
gate to the garrison to the left.  The walls were not as strong as they needed
to be, though parts of it still stand together somewhat.

Base of the Hills
    Though there are trees scattered around the base of the hill and along the
pathway up, they seem sparse toward the top.   Once clear of the forest trees,
an ancient keep  whose walls have fallen to rubble after many ages can be seen
on the apex of the next hill.   The wind has picked up quite a bit as a strong
gale blows through.  As it turns the dirt into a cloud of dust that it carries
away, the pathway becomes uncovered, and the intricate runes of long past that
adorn the path are revealed to be elven glyph's of warding.

A Tranquil Forest
    Sounds come from all around as you enter deeper into the forest.  Above you
there is a bit of rustling in the trees and the whole forest seems to teem with
life.  The pathway that leads northward, heading up the side of the hill, seems
to be still paved somewhat.   Other ways to go look like they are just wildlife
paths through the forest.  Ancient runes from an age gone past adorn the paths.
The woods around are full of life and movement.  Birds and bugs fly through the
trees, and other woodland creatures gathering food for their families scurry on
the sides of the path through the trees and bushes. Many sounds are heard along
the walk through the woods.  Birds chirping, calls of the wilds, and many other
woodland sounds come from all around as you travel further down the path.

Pathway Around a Slow Moving Stream
   Walking around the edge of the crystal clear stream, the fish and the other
aquatic wildlife seems to be thriving in this area of the forest.  There seems
to be nothing hindering their growth and the vast variety of fish that swim by
is amazing.   Along the banks many deer and other woodland creatures have left
footprints from where they have come up quench their thirst and hunger.  Could
the Elysian Fields be this calm, beautiful, and peaceful.  The path appears to
twist and wind around through the trees as if not to disturb the great balance
between nature and humanity.

Just Inside the Archway
    As you enter deeper into the tree's you notice that in places the overgrown
path is still greatly intact and parts of the brush don't seem to grow upon it.
Most of the path is covered in ancient runes that seem almost elven.  One might
wonder how long ago these symbols would have been laid and how long it has been
since someone has trodden down this faint path through the forest.  It seems as
if at one time this path was a dominant, well-traveled one as you notice that a
few of the stones have been pressed in deep into the soil.

notice a deer and other woodland animals scurry about in the distance.  Birds
are singing, and it seems as though the woods are alive with creatures.  This
is the edge of the tree line, where the plains seem to give way to the forest
beyond. Ahead in a straight line down the broken path is an archway of trees.

Rolling Plains
   Traveling through the plains you come to a small forested area filled with
trees that have grown tall as they grew ancient.   As you draw nearer to this
forest, you start to hear the sounds of wild life that was not as predominate
through the plains.  The path ahead of you starts to become more engrossed in
trees, and up ahead you notice the trees seem to thicken into a dense forest.
From here you can also see some rolling hills in the distance. There seems to
be a wildlife path that cuts through the woods in front of you.  Though it is
over-grown from lack of heavy use, wildlife still uses enough to see.  As you
continue your trek forward, you note that the path seems to have been a stone
walkway at one time that has broken down and crumbled with the sands of time.

Up the Side of the Waterfall
    The water flows fast down the side of the mountain.  The mulitude of small
falls that run down the side of the hill are slowly cutting deep into the soft
earth.  The sounds of water crashing are loud throughout the trek upward along
the falls.  With the water rushing so swiftly down the hillside, anything that
would be in the way of the waters is promptly drug down to crash into the pool
below.   Small salmon swim their way up the side of the waterfalls, and slowly
make their way to the top to head off toward the grounds where they were born.
Even though the water is rushing fast here they never give up on their effort.
Rough rocks and the small branches of trees that jut from the waterfall's main
apex provide ways to climb to the edge of the mesa base further up the side of
the hill.

Before a Flowing Waterfall
     The water flows at an unhampered pace down the side of a hill here. There
are many smaller, stair-stepped waterfalls, but the main drop-off waterfall is
higher then most of the trees lining the stream. The mist is thick, making the
air feel very heavy.  The wind blows the falling water to the east, looking as
though a blanket of water was settling slowly to the ground.  Despite theheavy
feel to the air, it feels very nice in the heat of the sun.   All the cares of
the world wash away as the mist gently sprays your face.  The path ahead seems
to lead the to waterfall then disappear behind the rush of water.  The path is
worn and has eroded over time.  It is starting to show its age here where most
of the stonework had been very intricate but has worn away.

Forked of Path of the Stream
    The stream flows in from the northwest in a steady and fast pace.  At times
the sound of water crashing into rocks is louder here.  A gentle wind brings in
a light mist that soaks the area.  The rocks have a light mossy coating, making
it hard at times to get a good, firm footing while traveling along the edges of
the stream.  The waterborne life does not seem to be as apparent here as it was
further down the stream.   The waters are a bit darker then they were, yet they
are still pretty clear, and the bottom of the stream can be easily seen.  Birds
and other woodland creatures around make noises and chirps as one travels along
the edge of the stream through the forest.

A Fork in the Streams
   The stream flows in from the northeastern part of the forest, forking both
toward the southwest and slightly toward the northwestern part of the forest.
The mist  seems to be pretty thick in this area.  Small pebbles line the bank
of the stream which appears to have a sandy bottom.  The waters are clear and
almost translucent.  The area around the stream is calm and peaceful. Nothing
else in the world seems to matter here as the peace fills the area.  Splashes
from the salmon and other aquatic creatures seem to come from all around. The
path traveled upon is smooth and seems to have been well made at one time.

Further around the side of the Pond
      Rounding the edge of the pond and coming toward where the stream enters
the pond, there is the slight splashing sound of fish trying to swim upstream
as they jump out of the water as they make their way slowly upstream.   These
waters appear to be teeming with fish and other aquatic wildlife that thrives
in the pure, blessed stream flowing through this part of the forest. The mist
seems to be a bit more pervasive,soaking everything around.   The ground is a
bit more muddy and a few tracks of animals are more apparent.

A Fork in the Streams
   The stream flows in from the northeastern part of the forest, forking both
toward the southwest and slightly toward the northwestern part of the forest.
The mist  seems to be pretty thick in this area.  Small pebbles line the bank
of the stream which appears to have a sandy bottom.  The waters are clear and
almost translucent.  The area around the stream is calm and peaceful. Nothing
else in the world seems to matter here as the peace fills the area.  Splashes
from the salmon and other aquatic creatures seem to come from all around. The
path traveled upon is smooth and seems to have been well made at one time.

Forked of Path of the Stream
    The stream flows in from the northwest in a steady and fast pace.  At times
the sound of water crashing into rocks is louder here.  A gentle wind brings in
a light mist that soaks the area.  The rocks have a light mossy coating, making
it hard at times to get a good, firm footing while traveling along the edges of
the stream.  The waterborne life does not seem to be as apparent here as it was
further down the stream.   The waters are a bit darker then they were, yet they
are still pretty clear, and the bottom of the stream can be easily seen.  Birds
and other woodland creatures around make noises and chirps as one travels along
the edge of the stream through the forest.

Before a Flowing Waterfall
     The water flows at an unhampered pace down the side of a hill here. There
are many smaller, stair-stepped waterfalls, but the main drop-off waterfall is
higher then most of the trees lining the stream. The mist is thick, making the
air feel very heavy.  The wind blows the falling water to the east, looking as
though a blanket of water was settling slowly to the ground.  Despite theheavy
feel to the air, it feels very nice in the heat of the sun.   All the cares of
the world wash away as the mist gently sprays your face.  The path ahead seems
to lead the to waterfall then disappear behind the rush of water.  The path is
worn and has eroded over time.  It is starting to show its age here where most
of the stonework had been very intricate but has worn away.

Up the Side of the Waterfall
    The water flows fast down the side of the mountain.  The mulitude of small
falls that run down the side of the hill are slowly cutting deep into the soft
earth.  The sounds of water crashing are loud throughout the trek upward along
the falls.  With the water rushing so swiftly down the hillside, anything that
would be in the way of the waters is promptly drug down to crash into the pool
below.   Small salmon swim their way up the side of the waterfalls, and slowly
make their way to the top to head off toward the grounds where they were born.
Even though the water is rushing fast here they never give up on their effort.
Rough rocks and the small branches of trees that jut from the waterfall's main
apex provide ways to climb to the edge of the mesa base further up the side of
the hill.

Rolling Plains
   Traveling through the plains you come to a small forested area filled with
trees that have grown tall as they grew ancient.   As you draw nearer to this
forest, you start to hear the sounds of wild life that was not as predominate
through the plains.  The path ahead of you starts to become more engrossed in
trees, and up ahead you notice the trees seem to thicken into a dense forest.
From here you can also see some rolling hills in the distance. There seems to
be a wildlife path that cuts through the woods in front of you.  Though it is
over-grown from lack of heavy use, wildlife still uses enough to see.  As you
continue your trek forward, you note that the path seems to have been a stone
walkway at one time that has broken down and crumbled with the sands of time.

Broken Path Headed Toward a Grove of Trees
      The air gently rolls through the glade, making the trees sway slightly.
The green and somewhat red leaves rustle vigorously in the breeze.   There is
a sense of calm about the trees that invites you to go deeper into them.  You
notice a deer and other woodland animals scurry about in the distance.  Birds
are singing, and it seems as though the woods are alive with creatures.  This
is the edge of the tree line, where the plains seem to give way to the forest
beyond. Ahead in a straight line down the broken path is an archway of trees.

    As you enter deeper into the tree's you notice that in places the overgrown
path is still greatly intact and parts of the brush don't seem to grow upon it.
Most of the path is covered in ancient runes that seem almost elven.  One might
wonder how long ago these symbols would have been laid and how long it has been
since someone has trodden down this faint path through the forest.  It seems as
if at one time this path was a dominant, well-traveled one as you notice that a
few of the stones have been pressed in deep into the soil.

   Sounds come from all around you as you enter deeper into the forest.  Above
you there is a bit of rustling in the trees and around you the whole forest is
alive with sound, making it seem to be teeming with life.  Off to your left is
a group of deer approaching a stream.   About the same time you seem them they
look up and then dart off into the distance.   To your right, you see a mother
robin with her young waiting in a nest on a low branch as she swoops down with
the worm she has found nearby to feed them.  There is a path that leads to the

it is still paved somewhat the path still looks as though it are just wildlife
