[Old Ta'Faendryl, East Entrance]
Two huge columns flank either side of a walkway that leads out past the city walls. Each column is miraculously intact, but so badly tilted that they lean against each other in a precarious equilibrium, forming a triangular arch over the opening. A road leading north and south runs past the opening, and a large square plaza extends out to the west. You also see an Ithzir seer.

A thread of blood red magic issues forth from your hand toward the Ithzir seer. It coils itself around him, whirling malevolently before disappearing within his body.
An Ithzir seer trembles slightly and looks very weak!

[Execution Square]
The paving stones of this open plaza fit together so precisely that the entire area appears to be covered by one huge slab of granite. No sign of cracking, pitting, dust or debris mars the hard surface. Even the ubiquitous vines creeping up the walls that surround the plaza seem reluctant to cast their invasive branches across the polished pavement. You also see an Ithzir adept.

[Old Ta'Faendryl, East Woods]
The path near the city wall is composed of chocolate-brown clay, cracked and chipped in places where it has dried after a season of heavy rains. Extending out from the remains of the city gate, it wends its way up hills covered in bushes and a dense growth of deciduous trees, then drops from sight as it ducks behind a bend in the distance.

[Old Ta'Faendryl, East Woods]
Tree-dotted hillsides rise on both sides of the path, providing ample cover for the wildlife living in the woods. The road here is mostly flat as it meanders along the city plateau, although there is a slight incline to the north. One especially large modwir tree lies fallen near the edge of the road, its roots helplessly exposed.
Obvious paths: northeast, west
You kneel down.
You duck your head and crawl into the fallen tree.
[East Woods, Hollow Tree]
It is dark and cozy inside the trunk of the tree, the curving wooden walls provide a feeling of warm security against the dangers of the night. A thick growth of moss has crept within the trunk, forming a soft, spongy carpet the entire length of the hollow space. An opening at the end of the trunk leads out to the woods.
Obvious exits: none

You gesture at an acid-pitted gold chest.
Suddenly a dark splotch erupts from the lock mechanism and envelops you! Time seems to slow down and almost stop...

Time and space seem to swirl around you. You catch brief glimpses of events both past and future. Beyond these strange and confusing visions extends a vast, ever-changing field of stars, pinpoints of light against unfathomable utter blackness. It is very cold here.
