>>Foof!<<

You are in a debris room filled with stuff washed in from the surface. A low wide passage with cobbles becomes plugged with mud and debris here, but an awkward canyon leads upward and west. In the mud someone has scrawled, "MAGIC WORD XYZZY".

A three foot black rod with a rusty star on an end lies nearby.


take rod

OK


w

You are in an awkward sloping east/west canyon.


w

You are in a splendid chamber thirty feet high. The walls are frozen rivers of orange stone. An awkward canyon and a good passage exit from east and west sides of the chamber.

A cheerful little bird is sitting here singing.


w

At your feet is a small pit breathing traces of white mist. An east passage ends here except for a small crack leading on.

Rough stone steps lead down the pit.


d

You are at one end of a vast hall stretching forward out of sight to the west. There are openings to either side. Nearby, a wide stone staircase leads downward. The hall is filled with wisps of white mist swaying to and fro almost as if alive. A cold wind blows up the staircase. There is a passage at the top of a dome behind you.

Rough stone steps lead up the dome.


w

You are on the east bank of a fissure slicing clear across the hall. The mist is quite thick here, and the fissure is too wide to jump.

A crystal bridge now spans the fissure.


w

You are on the west side of the fissure in the Hall of Mists.

There are diamonds here!

A crystal bridge now spans the fissure.
