The Chamber of the Archmage
This room was created many milennia ago by practitioners of the lost art
of arcane magic. Several newly reconstructed tables lie along the wall, one
side of the room filled with magical tomes, and the other side inundated
with alchemical elixers and potions. There is a large tapestry on the north
wall, outlining the minotaur race in its early days, when the arcane was
purely under their control. It goes on to show their fall from grace, and
the events in which the Gods themselves stripped away all of their magical
potential. Finally, it goes on to visibly show an enimty between a clan of
evil minotaurs, regaining the arcane gift through a dark pact with a God
of unholy stature, Zion.

Something magical fills the air. By no means was this tower constructed
by any physical labor, no hands laid this foundation. It was construed using
the powerful magic art that only the few possess. Minotaurs are not known for
their strength in magic, but on rare occasions one or two will shine through
and provide a beacon for others to follow as a shining star might provide
someone while out at sea. Those same shining phenoms have no doubt used their
powers to construct this tower, this enchanted place. To those unwelcome, to
those who are not their kin, only pain awaits for intruders are not tolerated.

A Forest Grove
Sunlight will never reach this shallow grove for a curse has been laid upon
it, a curse originating from the evil tower for which resides here. No one can
say just what kind of magic is at work here or for which purpose, however, it
is clear that nothing good can become of the power at work here. The animals of
the forest avoid this alcove for this tower for their senses are tuned in with
the natural order of things and the evil tower is anything but natural. During
most of the night, wolves howl at the tower. Most minotaurs avoid this tower,
and to those who trespass only one thing could possibly be expected, death. It
is questionable whether or not the cow's were the ones who built this, for not
much is known about it. None of those who dwell within mingle with their kin.

A Forest Grove
Obvious exits: -West
A tower of high sorcery blocks out all light.
< 186h/228H 120v/120V Pos: standing >
On a Wooden Bridge
The wooden bridge looks to have nearly succumbed to the elements. Years of
rain, snow, wind, and the sun look to have broken the elasticity and strength
of the bridge. A forest grove is visible just to the east, it's a very shallow
grove, however, it's impossible to see just what lays within it for a veil of
darkness surrounds it. To the south a small settlement is visible. Over the
horizon to the west a large tower looms, peaking over the trees just enough so
that it is possible to scout a large portion of the area to the east.

Before a River
Wild life can be heard nearby but they remain unseen however, for the
forestation is very thick. The trees grow an incredible height here and they
block out the sunlight that is the demise of so many nocturnal creatures. A
river is faintly visible towards the west. Many game trails are visible to the
east however, as well to the west. It is obvious that this particular section
of the forest is a hot spot amongst the animals for it provides about the
only drinking water readily available in the region. One thing the river
isn't to those who dwell in this region is safe to travel.

A Withered Cobblestone Road
Huge city structures are now visible. Monumental statues tower above the
buildings, roof tops can not contain giving the view. Many cow's find this
section of their settlement awe inspiring and fills them with much pride.
Merchants of many races gather here it would seem, their voices are audible
amidst the crowds trying to draw attention to themselves. The road could fit
a good number of would be merchandisers. However, there are no caravans on
the path. The road opens up to the south to a center of shopping. To the east
a trail takes a turn toward the forest to the north east.

A Forest Grove
Sunlight will never reach this shallow grove for a curse has been laid upon
it, a curse originating from the evil tower for which resides here. No one can
say just what kind of magic is at work here or for which purpose, however, it
is clear that nothing good can become of the power at work here. The animals of
the forest avoid this alcove for this tower for their senses are tuned in with
the natural order of things and the evil tower is anything but natural. During
most of the night, wolves howl at the tower. Most minotaurs avoid this tower,
and to those who trespass only one thing could possibly be expected, death. It
is questionable whether or not the cow's were the ones who built this, for not
much is known about it. None of those who dwell within mingle with their kin.

A Tower Base
Something magical fills the air. By no means was this tower constructed
by any physical labor, no hands laid this foundation. It was construed using
the powerful magic art that only the few possess. Minotaurs are not known for
their strength in magic, but on rare occasions one or two will shine through
and provide a beacon for others to follow as a shining star might provide
someone while out at sea. Those same shining phenoms have no doubt used their
powers to construct this tower, this enchanted place. To those unwelcome, to
those who are not their kin, only pain awaits for intruders are not tolerated.

The Chamber of the Archmage
This room was created many milennia ago by practitioners of the lost art
of arcane magic. Several newly reconstructed tables lie along the wall, one
side of the room filled with magical tomes, and the other side inundated
with alchemical elixers and potions. There is a large tapestry on the north
wall, outlining the minotaur race in its early days, when the arcane was
purely under their control. It goes on to show their fall from grace, and
the events in which the Gods themselves stripped away all of their magical
potential. Finally, it goes on to visibly show an enimty between a clan of
evil minotaurs, regaining the arcane gift through a dark pact with a God
of unholy stature, Zion.
