You yawn.

[River's Rest, Sanctuary]
Deep in the forest rests a small shrine lovingly carved of the silvery haon wood that surrounds you. Crickets chirping and the gentle rustling of leaves fill the air with a strong sense of life. From somewhere nearby the gentle sound of running water completes the quiet symphony. Little else disturbs the peace save for an occasional muted voice drifting on the breeze. You also see a rotting tanik coffer, a sturdy monir box, a scrap of obscure papyrus, an iron-bound haon coffer, an enruned maoral coffer, a scratched iron chest, a simple haon chest and a sturdy steel box.
Also here: the body of Lord Coinner who is lying down
Obvious paths: southeast

[Entering rest mode...press any key to resume.]


Coinner's body decays into compost.

Coinner just appeared on the altar, looking a tad confused.

[Leaving rest mode.]

You laugh at Coinner!



Was worth the wait.
