This is the southern half of an uncomfortably warm crawl space beneath the parlor.

You are in a circular room with a low ceiling. There are exits to the east and southeast.

This is a small control cabin. A control panel contains a slot, a lever, and a display.

This is an entry bay for the Heart of Gold. A corridor lies aft of here.

This is the very top of the Great Dome, a favorite place for Tech fraternities to install cows, Volkswagen Beetles, giant birthday candles, and other bizarre objects. The top is flat, round, and about five feet in diameter. It's very windy, which has kept the snow from accumulating here.

Inland from the shore the pebbles become sea-smoothed rocks. To the south is a path leading along the cliffs and around the headland. To the north is the bay where the galley rides at anchor.

You are in a small room, which was used by a bank officer who retrieved safety deposit boxes for the customer.

With its concrete walls and floor this room looks as if it might be a bomb shelter. A heavy-duty sawhorse has a plank across it.

You are in an east/west alley. To the north is a vacant lot, and an overgrown field lies to the south.

This is the enclosed front porch of your home. Your front garden lies to the south, and you can re-enter your home to the north.

This is the south end of the ballroom. A huge fieldstone fireplace dominates the south wall. The bar is to the east.

This is the north end of a large hall with a vaulted ceiling. A long, tiled hallway leads north through a tall arch. Although the purpose of this room is unclear, there is a large rendering of the Royal Seal of Lord Dimwit Flathead carved on the wall.

This is a room at the spa at Yokose. The corridor is outside.

This small garden shed is filled with implements of gardening and lawn care. Shelves filled with various tools line the walls and a filthy window looks out on the lawn.

Jungle looms around this clipped lawn, a path meandering westward into the dense undergrowth. To the east is a folly entangled in blooming jasmine. The way to the beach is obscure, but visible to the southeast. Behind the folly a thorny hedge blocks the cliff view of the sea.

This is a featureless tunnel, narrowing to the west. To the east is a deep gorge, probably too wide to jump across.

You are midway down the Southwest Hallway. The walls of this narrow passage are unadorned and smooth. The hallway continues to the southwest and the northeast.

You are standing near the front stoop of a very large igloo. Its door is flanked by a faded sign and a barred window. Paths lead north, north and north.

This is one end of a short corridor that continues aft along the main deck of the Heart of Gold.

The pipe here is smashed from the top where a huge pillar has toppled over onto it. Cyclopean ruins are all around you. The cracks and fissures in the pipe might make it possible to climb out here. The water is fast and loud around you.

You suddenly find yourself longing for the slime pits of Venus or the sandstorms of Mars. This particular section of Cleveland has exits to the northeast and south.

You are on an east-west road, which wends its way through the dark, rolling hills of this land. To the west rises a high mountain, to the east stands a high castle with dark towers.

This is a sand-filled cave whose exit is to the southwest.

This museum is devoted to the old North Central Railroad Station around the corner, and more generally to the entire history of rail travel. Through huge glass windows on the southern wall of the entrance lobby you can see the old railroad yards behind the station.

Dimwit loved zoos, because he loved imprisonment of any kind -- if the dungeons were full of prisoners he could at least get some joy from throwing a couple of minxes behind bars. This zoo, with 69,105 cages, is easily the largest in Quendor.

You are in the lowest level of the castle's keep. A stone stair winds up into the keep, and a sloping passage leads northeast.

You are in a shadowy land of low, rolling hills stretching out to the west and south. The land is bordered to the north by a massive stone wall. Ancient and weathered, the wall has crumbled enough at one point to permit passage.

You are in the captain's cabin. There is a large and comfortable-looking bunk here. The forward doorway leads to the crew's lounge.

Lord Jack's private study has rich mahogany furniture and hunting prints on the walls.

You are in the aft cabin aboard the barge. There's a door to the west which leads out to the deck, and a short ladder, permanently mounted to the deck, going down into the depths of the barge itself.

You're in the northwest corner of the Barge Chamber. You can see by your light that there's room enough to continue around the back of the barge by going to the east, while you can bypass the bow of the boat by going south.

A rutted drive runs north-south here, from a high spiked gate through the jungle to Lafond's mansion. You hide in the bushes nearby.

You sense, rather than see, the rusty skeletons of old cages and torture devices that line the walls of this cavernous room. One flaming torch, high on a wall, casts mad licks of light into the darkness. Passages lead north and west.

This is the lobby of the apartment building; there is little of note here, except for the elevator, whose door stands open to the north. In front of you, a directory lists the occupants of the building. You can exit the building to the east.

This is a very small room. In the corner is a rickety wooden ladder, leading downward. It might be safe to descend. There is also a staircase leading upward.

You are in a large square room with tall ceilings. On the south wall is an enormous mirror which fills the entire wall. There are exits on the other three sides of the room.

This is the station's largest docking bay. A huge door to the east leads into the station. Resting in the docking bay is a small ship of obviously alien origin. An open hatch seems to beckon you inward.

The Rockvil Zoological Garden is a moderately sized zoo, but it is well-designed, featuring natural habitats nestled between grassy hills. The main entrance lies to the north. Affluent estates, recently built on the site of Halley Park, form the southeastern boundary of the zoo.

You are in the small head on board the Night Wind. It's so small there's only enough room to turn around to get out aft.

The trail curves north and east around an abandoned quarry. An ancient pine clings to the rim of the quarry. Its needles are brown with age, and its drooping branches cast a dark shadow across the quarry below.

Airportway ends here in a huge loop past the terminal buildings of Rockvil International Airport. The main terminal building can be entered to the north, and the road leads southwest back toward the city.

The metal floor continues all the way around the cylinder. Aft the grassland begins, and forward the cylinder ends in a smooth vertical wall.

This is the northern end of the ballroom. A raised area provides a band platform, and there is a stereo hookup for use when there is no band.

You are at the top of a steep, descending passage that plunges down to the north. Although the angle is steep, it looks as if you should have firm enough footing to travel safely.

This is a large lot for the park to the east and the cinema to the west, although the sort of people who would attend that sort of cinema are hardly the sort of people who could afford to own skycars.

This is the south end of a hallway that runs the length of the house. At the far end, to the north, you can see the living room; immediately to the south is a door. Other doors on both sides lead to other rooms.

Skycar after skycar settles onto the sidewalk outside the theatre, and extravagantly dressed couples walk elegantly into the theatre for the evening's performance.

You are two steps down the steep staircase when you see before you a deep dropoff going down into nothingness. To go down any further would be suicide.

This is a curving hallway leading east and northwest. There is an opening to the west.

This is a very long room lined with multi-tiered bunks. Flimsy partitions between the tiers may have provided a modicum of privacy. These spartan living quarters could have once housed many hundreds, but it seems quite deserted now. There are openings at the north and south ends of the room.
