@w  A long stone building, with large windows all down the length of it, is quite
@wcracked and worn. The roof is pretty much intact but is covered with grasses,
@wmoss and small plants, as well as one very large tree. The roots of the tree 
@wdrape down the front of the building, and along the stone steps, which are

@gVillage Centre @R[**> PK <**]
@w  In the centre of the village is a large fire pit, ringed with stones and 
@wdug into the ground. The pit has hot coals glowing within, keeping the fire 
@walive and waiting to be stoked into flames against the onset of night and 
@wthe cold it brings.  Bound and gagged beside the pit is an elf, stripped of 
@wclothing and tied to a strong branch that is long enough to span the fire 
@wpit. Off to one side is what appears to be the chieftain's house and a long 
@wtable is being prepared for a feast.

@r(Red Aura) @W(White Aura) @yThe village chieftain keeps a watchful eye over the @yvillage.

@wThe village chieftain is a man in his prime. His hair is a deep green and it@w 
@wis loose and wild around his face. He has dried blood smeared on his cheek 
@wbones, giving him an evil, feral look. His clothing fits perfectly because h@we

@w

@w
@wThe chieftain ponders for a moment.

@gA still pool @R[**> PK <**]
@w  The turbulent waters that flow in from the river to the north find peace 
@where at the end of its journey. The waters are crystal clear and the bottom 
@wof the pool is easily seen in the shallows and becomes lost to sight as it 
@wdeepens in the middle. Far to the northwest is an enormous waterfall, but 
@wyou'll have to safely navigate your way through the forest to reach it. At 
@wthe bottom of the water a silver shimmer catches your eye, if you dive down 
@wdeep enough you might be able to catch it.

@wYou get @Y<@C-@Y>@CA@Ynaconda @CS@Ycalemail@C<@Y-@C>@w from the electrified corpse of a baby anaco@wnda.

@gA clearing in the forest
@w  Having walked deep into Silverwind Forest, you quite unexpectedly find 
@wyourself in an unusual clearing. The trees seemed to have gotten up and 
@wwalked away, their roots leaving the dirt all churned up upon their exit fro@wm
@wthe soil. Silver leaves litter the ground, their spark of life lingering on 
@wlong after they have fallen from their branches. Off to the east is the 
@wbeginning of a path through the trees, a path that is lined with spears upon@w 
@wwhich small round objects rest.
@w
@g[ Exits: east west ]
@r(Red Aura) @yA snake slithers along the forest path.
@w(Hidden) @r(Red Aura) @yA Skrean hunter blends into the forest.
@r(Red Aura) @yA huge ball of muscle and fur digs furiously at the ground.

@RA wombat smoulders as the lightning destroys her!!
@wYou get chunks of meat from the frazzled corpse of a wombat.

@gA dried up river
@w  This river has long since dried up and all that is left now are the smooth@w 
@wstones of the riverbed. Driftwood lies scattered along the length of the 
@wriver and in fact, grasses and young plants are growing in the less stony 
@wparts. The river was relatively shallow and as such the dried up bed is very@w 
@weasy to cross. There seems no point in following the river's course as it 
@wseems to go on north and south for as far as the eye can see. The best way
@wout is to climb out of the ravine.

@RA wyvern is burnt to a crisp by Odin's spear! He is DEAD!
@wYou get a large rack of ribs from the electrified corpse of a wyvern.

@gA deep ravine
@w  In the middle of the ravine you find that there is more depth to it than 
@wfirst realised. A large crack has opened up in the earth and from the surfac@we 
@wit looks to be bottomless. Someone has been here before you though, as you 
@wcan see by a very basic rope bridge that has been erected, using the trees 
@won either side of the crack to anchor it. It is treacherous, but with care 
@wcan be crossed rather easily.
@w

@w     @cA basic rope bridge spans a bottomless chasm.

@wYou get @gbanded @clizard-hide @gwrist @cguard@w from the electrified corpse of a gian@wt lizard.

@gBottom of a shaft
@w  A very long shaft runs straight up from here, and the climb looks 
@wtreacherous. Every now and then some small stones skitter down the 
@wshaft as something up higher dislodges them from the wall. There is 
@wstrange lichen on the ceiling near the exit of the tunnel that emits 
@wa soft radiant light. Some boulders are piled up near the shaft, so 
@wgetting into and out of it is quite easy.
@w
@g[ Exits: west up ]
@w     A pile of boulders have piled up at the bottom of a shaft.
@r(Red Aura) @yA large bat flies along the ceiling, leathery wings disturbing th@ye air.

@RA rat is burnt to a crisp by Odin's spear! He is DEAD!
@wYou get a fresh rat carcass from the electrified corpse of a rat.

@gA tunnel through the rocks
@w  Four identical stone arches lead out in four different directions. To the 
@wnorth the faint sound of water reaches your ears. From the eastern archway 
@wthere is warm breeze, perhaps from a fire or a thermal vent. Stale, dusty 
@wair is coming from the southern tunnel, encouraging an unwanted sneeze. A 
@wrainbow of light shimmers down the end of the western tunnel.
@w
@g[ Exits: north east south west ]
@r(Red Aura) @yThick strands of white ropey vines hang down from the ceiling.

@RA white ropey vine is DEAD!!
@wYou get parsnip flavoured roots from the decapitated corpse of a white ropey@w vine.

@gA cool cave
@w  There is a cold, stale air coming up from the vertical shaft that is 
@wlocated in the centre of the cave. The stones around the entrance to the 
@wshaft are quite smooth and deathly cold to the touch. There are boulders 
@wover to one side and they are covered with a dark green luminescent moss. 
@wLarge, flat fungi grows amongst the moss and is a yellow-brown in colour.
@w
@g[ Exits: north down ]
@w     @B(Magic) @ySmall fan shaped, edible fungi are ready to eat.

@wtwenty or more. One of the clusters has fallen to the ground and broken open@w

@wYou get @Ya cluster of yellow fruits@w from a large fruit bearing tree.

@gA large crater
@w  Thickets of large, juicy berries grow and thrive, their thorns long and 
@wsharp, though with the proper care, their fruit can be picked. There are 
@wbits of torn cloth sticking to some of the thorns and some dried blood on 
@wthe ground nearby. Long grasses with razor sharp edges have beautiful 
@wturquoise flowers with yellow patterns on their petals as well as some 
@wfresh blood on them.

@w     @mThickets of berries thrive, producing the juiciest of fruits.

@gThe rim of a crater
@w  The ground shakes and rumbles, and rocks tumble down the crater wall, as 
@wthe ground beneath your feet hiccups. Leaves are shaken from the trees and 
@wbirds take flight in fright. It is mere moments before stability is restored@w. 
@wLots of fruit bearing trees lose their fruit, which break open upon their 
@wunexpected journey to the earth, rolling around before coming to a rest, 
@wready for the birds and insects to dine upon.
