Mock Combat Chamber
A huge ring is erected in the center of the chamber. On either side of it
benches are ready to give a tired warrior a rest. The ring has a diameter of
ten feet. Inside the ring, warriors fight in mock combat. Many of them are
breathing heavily. the ring of steel fills the area as they battle. A huge rack
of mock combat weapons remains dormant along the northern wall of the chamber.

A War Room
The room is majestically clean, however, a few blood stains are visible
on the mock combat mat in the center of the room. Obviously, Ackum, the
master warrior, knows about hygiene. The stench that was once overwhelming is
now none existent. The cleanliness of this mock combat chamber also attests to
his hygiene a proficiency. Huge racks of weapons, mock combat weapons, are
leaning up against the norther wall. Mock combat armor hangs next to that. The
area is filled with sounds of clashing. The clashing sound is coming from the
east, while the weapon's shop lays to the west.

A Narrow Corridor
Accumulated moisture and slime cover the corridor. It is inherently suspect
whether or not the corridor is ten feet underground. No heat inhabits its
halls, only residue and a foul smell. From the ceiling to the floor the
corridor is about eight feet high, giving more than enough room for a minotaur
to traverse it. However, a huge wooden door stands to the north, looking
to forbid any unwanted intruder. Audible voices emanate from within, the
sounds of steel clashing rings through the air.

The staircase lies in the corner of the corridor, it looks to go up quite
a ways. this hallway is narrow and rugged, it is only seven feet in width and
doesn't suit big parties coming and going all at once. Slime and refuse, from
the outside layer of dirt, make the place a hazard. The corridor is likely
ten feet underground, which accounts for the chill in the air. No fire place
warms the area, however, it is suspect the no warrior who comes to train here
ever complains about it. The corridor leads northward, to a huge wooden door.

A Narrow Staircase
Railing on top of the staircase helps with footing and gives the impression
that a cow would need on the returning trip up. Some broken plank on the
staircase hints a great amount of weight must be carried up and down these
steps a day. The steps are made of the strongest wood around, ocimian oak.
This oak was used for building temporarily during the cataclysmic wars
between the ogres and minotaurs. These two barbaric races had neither
the resources or the man power to build them themselves, so they higher
a lot of orcish and duergar engineers and laborers to do the work.

Before the Warrior Brigade
Huge buildings surround the wide cobblestone road. With a width of about
fifteen feet and with nothing but air standing in-between the houses and walls,
the road is easily navigable as opposed to the poverty stricken majority
slum holes. The buildings on either side of the road are unique to the other
buildings of the city for they were constructed in earnest, with careful
precision not seen in the other parts of the city. Signs hang from each of
their doorways, some more legible than others. The roof tops touch the sky,
while off to the north and south the road continues.

Huge buildings are on either side of the road. The paved cobblestone road
almost seems like someone dragged a few tons of bricks upon it, it's very
smooth. The buildings are crumbling slightly, however, little piles of brick
and mortar inhabit the road. Broken swords and piles of clothes and furniture
can be seen. From the walls to the buildings the road stretches about fifteen
feet, allowing access to be easy on an otherwise narrow road. Huge city
structures can be seen above the roof tops, while city life can be heard.

An Intersection of Roads
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. The road continues
to the east and west. The northern street, along either side, has nearly
collapsed buildings just ready to succumb to the weight of gravity.

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.

In the Muck
Two large totems stand on either side of the path, both of them the beholder
of heads. The heads lay impaled upon the totems, a warning to all those who
would attempt to traverse this swamp. They've been there a while one would
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
progress to nearly a standstill. A small path opens up to the west, which
leads toward civilization.
