My first trip to the barrier. I've been stalling for how many trains now.. about 4 trains. Shit, and it's finally here. I simply can't learn in the tower fast enough anymore. I was dreading this day for weeks now. Thanks to Laccon for providing me the script to go to the barrier, Tsin for taking me to the aqueduct and offering what spells he could provide, and Bartonnium who directed me when I was lost. After swimming and swimming my ass off to get to the barrier. Enjoy!
You pick up a sturdy wooden box.

[Aqueduct]
The tunnel moves off to the southwest, the shallow, green water casting an uneven emerald glow on the walls as the water's peace is disturbed by sloshing feet. Solid granite walls prevent movement in all other directions. A pile of rubble in the center of the tunnel indicates that there may once have been a hole above to allow water to be drawn from the aqueduct. It is too dark, though, to see if such a hole exists anymore. Strangely out of place, a misshapen panel is set into the northeast wall. You also see the Shalla disk and a filthy knapsack.

[Aqueduct]
A layer of water only a foot deep covers the floor of what once was an aqueduct for the city above. A tunnel runs off in six directions from this point to carry the water to the thirsty residents. A hole leads upward, and a small amount of light filters down from the hole. The main illumination, however, is provided by a light green glow from the water underneath. The air is still and cool, and sounds echo easily off the cramped walls. You also see a festering taint, a twisted being, a scratched brass chest, a ragged knapsack, an iron-bound thanot strongbox, an engraved fel box and a badly damaged maoral chest.

[Ta'Faendryl Approach]
A cobblestone road swings in a wide arc northeast and west. Many of the stones are missing, but for the most part the road is still level and easily traveled. A huge mound of mud rises just to the southwest and extends to the west as far as the eye can see. The area is eerily quiet, as if no life of any kind resides here. A few dead trees, now petrified, rise into the sky in bleak silhouette, but the earth has a scorched look to it, and the usual underbrush seems to have retreated. You also see a shimmering portal.
Obvious paths: northeast, west
You feel a little pulse in the ring.

[Gyldemar Road, Sentinels]
The roadway rises slightly above the swamp. From the appearances, someone has purposely built a small hillock here atop which two massive granite sentinels stand, silent and unmoving. No method of circumventing the sentinels presents itself. If one wishes to continue along the road in an easterly direction, one must pass between the sentinels. Westward the road slides into the swamp and fights to stay above the sucking mud. You also see a large faenor-chased basket.

[Gyldemar Road]
Something has died just off the road. It is far enough out in the swamp that moving off the road to investigate would be foolhardy at best, but close enough that the flies and odor are very much apparent. This, combined with the oppressive humidity, mist, sucking mud and monotonous vegetation suggest that there are probably far more interesting places one could occupy. The road, as best as can be ascertained, continues to forge northwest and east. You also see an enruned gold strongbox, a sturdy steel trunk, a sturdy brass trunk, an iron-bound fel box, an engraved fel chest, an engraved mithril coffer, the purple Chazym disk, the Tsin disk, a scratched modwir box, a scratched iron box, a rotting fel coffer, a scratched monir trunk, a sturdy haon coffer, a badly damaged gold chest, a weathered tanik strongbox, a plain maoral trunk, a rotting fel strongbox, a rotting tanik trunk, a scratched tanik chest, a dented mithril strongbox, a badly damaged maoral chest, a scratched fel coffer, a simple maoral chest, a rotting thanot trunk, an enruned tanik coffer, an engraved thanot box, a weathered maoral trunk, a scratched brass trunk, a badly damaged steel trunk, a scratched haon box, a scratched tanik box, a plain maoral chest, a badly damaged brass chest, a weathered modwir chest, an iron-bound wooden chest, a corroded mithril coffer, a badly damaged maoral coffer, a simple fel coffer, a rotting tanik strongbox and a scratched haon strongbox.

[Aqueduct]
The tunnel moves off to the southwest, the shallow, green water casting an uneven emerald glow on the walls as the water's peace is disturbed by sloshing feet. Solid granite walls prevent movement in all other directions. A pile of rubble in the center of the tunnel indicates that there may once have been a hole above to allow water to be drawn from the aqueduct. It is too dark, though, to see if such a hole exists anymore. Strangely out of place, a misshapen panel is set into the northeast wall. You also see the Shalla disk and a filthy knapsack.

[Aqueduct]
A layer of water only a foot deep covers the floor of what once was an aqueduct for the city above. A tunnel runs off in six directions from this point to carry the water to the thirsty residents. A hole leads upward, and a small amount of light filters down from the hole. The main illumination, however, is provided by a light green glow from the water underneath. The air is still and cool, and sounds echo easily off the cramped walls. You also see a festering taint, a twisted being, a scratched brass chest, a ragged knapsack, an iron-bound thanot strongbox, an engraved fel box and a badly damaged maoral chest.

A layer of water only a foot deep covers the floor of what once was an aqueduct for the city above. A tunnel runs off in six directions from this point to carry the water to the thirsty residents.

[Aqueduct]
The walls of the tunnel are dry above the water even with the constant presence of a foot of water at the bottom. The air, likewise, is dry, and the water is rather cold. The greenish cast emanating from the liquid does nothing to warm the area but only serves to illuminate the walls and ceiling with a cold emerald light. You also see a filthy knapsack, some silver coins and a dusty knapsack.

[Ta'Faendryl Approach]
A cobblestone road swings in a wide arc northeast and west. Many of the stones are missing, but for the most part the road is still level and easily traveled. A huge mound of mud rises just to the southwest and extends to the west as far as the eye can see. The area is eerily quiet, as if no life of any kind resides here. A few dead trees, now petrified, rise into the sky in bleak silhouette, but the earth has a scorched look to it, and the usual underbrush seems to have retreated. You also see a shimmering portal.
Obvious paths: northeast, west
You feel a little pulse in the ring.

[Gyldemar Road, Sentinels]
The roadway rises slightly above the swamp. From the appearances, someone has purposely built a small hillock here atop which two massive granite sentinels stand, silent and unmoving. No method of circumventing the sentinels presents itself. If one wishes to continue along the road in an easterly direction, one must pass between the sentinels. Westward the road slides into the swamp and fights to stay above the sucking mud. You also see a large faenor-chased basket.

[Gyldemar Road]
Something has died just off the road. It is far enough out in the swamp that moving off the road to investigate would be foolhardy at best, but close enough that the flies and odor are very much apparent. This, combined with the oppressive humidity, mist, sucking mud and monotonous vegetation suggest that there are probably far more interesting places one could occupy. The road, as best as can be ascertained, continues to forge northwest and east. You also see an enruned gold strongbox, a sturdy steel trunk, a sturdy brass trunk, an iron-bound fel box, an engraved fel chest, an engraved mithril coffer, the purple Chazym disk, the Tsin disk, a scratched modwir box, a scratched iron box, a rotting fel coffer, a scratched monir trunk, a sturdy haon coffer, a badly damaged gold chest, a weathered tanik strongbox, a plain maoral trunk, a rotting fel strongbox, a rotting tanik trunk, a scratched tanik chest, a dented mithril strongbox, a badly damaged maoral chest, a scratched fel coffer, a simple maoral chest, a rotting thanot trunk, an enruned tanik coffer, an engraved thanot box, a weathered maoral trunk, a scratched brass trunk, a badly damaged steel trunk, a scratched haon box, a scratched tanik box, a plain maoral chest, a badly damaged brass chest, a weathered modwir chest, an iron-bound wooden chest, a corroded mithril coffer, a badly damaged maoral coffer, a simple fel coffer, a rotting tanik strongbox and a scratched haon strongbox.
