The Brawl
SUBJECT: TENSER'S FIRST TAVERN BRAWL (HEAVILY REDACTED GEMSTONE III LOG)
TIMESTAMP: JANUARY 19, 1998 1:12 AM PACIFIC STANDARD TIME
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is what always set Gemstone apart from other games I have played. It is
1 AM Pacific Time (4 AM Eastern) and people take the time to head to a tavern and
beat each other up for no other reason than to interact and hang out with friends. I
was just going to hunt a couple more times to finish off my night, but the taunting
of the ladies drew me into the fight.

[Kharam-Dzu, Bazaar NE]
Vertical sandalwood boards panel the front of a tall building wedged snugly into the town wall's northeastern corner. Arrows of various types dangle from the outcropping roofline, swaying lazily with the commotion of bodies rushing by. Hanging above a narrow doorway, a tremendous greatbow draws your eye.

[Eye of V'Tull, Crystal Chamber]
The cavern opens into a large chamber full of luminous blue crystal stalactites and pools of bubbling orange lava. Nearby several pillars of igneous rock guard a plume of super heated steam jetting out of several cracks in the floor. The steam has formed the ceiling here into a mirror polished dome over thirty feet at its peak.

[Kharam-Dzu, Bazaar SE]
A green canvas awning shades the open archway of The Mother Lode, casting its shadow over anonymous figures as they stroll into and out of the Inn. Standing nonchalantly to one side of the arch, a group of well-dressed giants banters amiably back and forth. You also see a sky blue silk tent.
Obvious paths: north, west, northwest.
[Kharam-Dzu, Bazaar SW]
A pair of streets meet the Bazaar here in a sprawling confluence of worn cobble. Crowds of people bustle in and out, some pausing to mill amongst friends and neighbors, others hustling busily on their ways. Several stone figurines stand at the fringe, watching the drama of town life as it whooshes by.
Obvious paths: north, south, east, west, northeast.
You hear the faint thoughts of Finixx echo in your mind:
"i'd come but i'm stuck in wraith's"
>go bri
[Silver and Emerald]
Immense trees and tall, gaunt houses crowd the cobbles, hovering in like suspicious sentinels guarding the road. Wood-slatted gates bar entry to steps which lead up to the dwellings, their shadows falling faintly into the street.
Obvious paths: north, south, east, west.
>e
[Silver and Garnet]
Lines of slender dwellings built edge-to-edge stretch along the cobbles, their cantilevered balconies giving shade to pedestrians who stroll casually along beneath them. Long wooden troughs fixed atop the railings overflow with infinite palettes of color. Rainbow swathes of pink, blue, yellow, red, violet and cream flow in awnings over your head.
Obvious paths: north, south, east, west.
[Garnet Street, River Crossing]
Throngs of people stream over the stone bridge, half bound for the residential west side, the rest for the dwarven quarter on the river's opposite shore. Through the mob, you notice a gnarled old woman sitting alone, out of the traffic, a brilliant, fascinated smile spreading across her wrinkled face.
Obvious paths: west.
[Ghorsa Isle, Plaza Northwest]
You elbow your way through a throng of people headed to and from the western bridge. Most are dwarves, but you also see giantmen, humans and even the odd elf or halfling. Before you stands the Golden Helm Inn, a prosperous-looking establishment with a uniformed dwarf at the door. You also see a stone bridge.
Obvious paths: south, east, southeast, down.
[Ghorsa Isle, Plaza Northeast]
The burbling of the river and the buzz of the crowd blend together, and you can hear little else for the din. A stout stone bridge spans the river Muagh, crossing east toward the commercial district. Down by the river's edge squats a fat old dwarf. He sits and stares into the water, mumbling to no one in particular. You also see a stony path.
Obvious paths: south, west, southwest.
>e
>go brie
You can't go there.
>nn
[Rolaren Street, River Crossing]
A cobblestone road leads east into the commercial center of the town. Leaning against a stone guardpost, a uniformed dwarf appraises those who pass. You hear angry shouts from inside the building. Streams of people cross the stone bridge to the west, which spans the river Muagh.
Obvious paths: east.
[Dragonspine and Rolaren]
Dragonspine Avenue is the main street of Kharam-Dzu. Most of the people you see are well-to-do dwarves, nattily dressed and apparently in a rush. The buildings all look new. Even the cobblestone streets are immaculately clean. A sturdy set of glaes-banded mithril doors leads into a low stone structure. The two guards outside clench their pikes tightly, peering closely at all who approach. You also see a scratched mithril coffer and a bright brass sign.
Also here: Lady Beryl
Obvious paths: north, south, east, west.
>nn
[Dragonspine and Ora]
Preoccupied folk make their way along this wide and busy avenue. A crew of broom-wielding dwarves sweeps the street clean of rubbish, working quickly under their supervisor's glare. To the west is the Company Store, which draws a steady flow of traffic to and fro.
Obvious paths: north, south, east, west.
>n
[Dragonspine and Mithril]
The flow of the crowd parts around a large hole in the middle of the road. A dwarven work crew stands around the hole, doing very little work. From the many shops and vendors' stalls along the street, you hear the cries of hawkers, the lamentations of hagglers and the occasional clink of a coin. You also see a small stone building with a large wooden sign on it.
Obvious paths: north, south, east.
>n
[Dragonspine and Krodera]
The street widens into a circular plaza several hundred feet across. Dwarves and giantmen lounge on stone benches by a massive granite fountain in the center. The burbling of the waters, the low mumblings of the dwarves and the booming laughter of the giants somehow blend together into a vibrant harmony. You also see a massive glaes club, a red granite statue and a small plaque.
Also here: Lord Gornot who is seated, Lord Giott who is lying down, Lord Kerebus
Obvious paths: north, south, east, west.
[Dragonspine and Imflass]
Dragonspine broadens into a wide plaza, a bazaar paved with grey and white granite flagstones. The foot traffic, mostly preoccupied dwarves, mingles with ox carts, pack horses, and burros laden with goods. Vendors have set up wooden booths to peddle their assorted wares.
Obvious paths: north, south, east, west.
>nn
[Dragonspine and Golvern]
A troupe of dwarven musicians entertains the crowds at this busy intersection. The dwarves gathered around clap appreciatively, some singing along in clamorous, off-key voices. Other dwarves wander by about their business, many headed to or from the town gates to the north. One huffs and puffs with a large wheelbarrow full of rocks.
Obvious paths: north, south, east, west.
[Dragonspine and Glaes]
nnThe town walls lie perhaps one hundred feet to the north, with dwarven militiamen pacing back and forth atop them. A rock garden to the west displays a wide variety of fascinating boulders. Beyond the garden, a barge makes its way south down the River Muagh, its decks piled high with freshly-cut logs. To the east Glaes street, lined with small wood and stone homes, continues a few hundred feet to the walls of the canyon.
Obvious paths: north, south, east.
[Kharam-Dzu, Town Gates]
A sturdy wooden gate is set into the massive stone walls surrounding Kharam-Dzu. Mail-clad guards with pikes and heavy crossbows pace back and forth atop the walls. Dwarves, burros and the odd giantman or human travel the broad cobblestone street which leads south into town. A squad of dwarven militia drills on the small, rocky parade ground to the east. A cloud of dust surrounds them as they march to and fro, and the gruff barks of their sergeant blend with the din of the crowd at the gate. You also see a flagon of Captn' Pegleg's ale, a rose-marrow potion, a large fruit bat who is lying down, a black billed toucan and a small rose.
Also here: Lord Kilan, Lord Valakhan, Lord Vaeyre
Obvious paths: south.
You hear the faint thoughts of Guendal echo in your mind:
"the men are all whipped"
You can't go there.
You can't go there.

[Kharam-Dzu, Outside the Gate]
The wood-and-stone walls of a sizeable town rise before you. Mail-clad dwarves pace atop them, looking over your head up the canyon. The road enters the wide-open gates. Dwarves, giantmen, and burro-drawn carts pass through them into the bustle of the town. The river flows north through a gap in the walls to the west. Several squat barges wallow their way upon it. You also see a dented brass coffer and a badly damaged tanik chest.
Obvious paths: north.
[Cobblestone Road, Canyon]
The road follows the river into a canyon, which narrows to the south. The craggy, reddish-brown rock towers hundreds of feet overhead. At the southern end of the canyon, a walled town sits at the base of the peak. The clang of a bell and the distant bustle of the crowd drift along the canyon. A squat barge plies the river toward the town, its deck piled high with fresh-cut timber and dozing dwarves.
Obvious paths: north, south.
[Cobblestone Road, Bridge]
A tall stone bridge spans the river, which rushes toward the northeast. Hooves clip-clopping on the cobblestones, burros pull wooden carts piled high with fresh-cut timber. The drovers are all dwarves and giantmen. They ignore you as they head south, toward the canyon. Over the burblings of the water, you hear the faint echoes of a busy town in the distance.
Obvious paths: south, northwest.

[Cobblestone Road]
The road is lined with tree stumps, shrubs and weeds. It runs toward the base of a canyon, which opens to the south. A great mountain dominates the horizon beyond the canyon. The peak is ringed with dark stormclouds. The outer walls of a good-sized town are barely visible within the canyon. You also see a cobblestone road.
Obvious paths: southeast.
>go roade
[Teras Isle, Logging Road]
Grass, shrubs, and even small hills have been flattened by a logging road many yards wide stretching between the forest to the west and the settlement to the east. Carts trundle by frequently, and it appears that at times the traffic has been heavy enough to carve two separate sets of ruts into the mud. A small peak rises to the south, and the low stone buildings of a sizeable town dot its slopes. A cobblestone road heads south, towards the town.
Obvious paths: east, west.
[Teras Isle, Crossroads]
A few ramshackle structures have been thrown up here, most little more than leather tents pitched by fishermen to protect their skiffs and nets during the winter. The Hog's Pen Tavern with its walls of stacked tanik logs is the sturdiest structure in sight. At the rear of the tavern, there is a pile of refuse and a trough that overflows with left-over meals and rain water. The sounds of a bustling town echo down the best-kept of the various roads and paths that meet here.
Obvious paths: east, west, northeast.

[Hog's Pen]
Here at the farthest end of the hall the fire is just a hazy glow, long shadows lie across the floor, and the smoke paws you like a drunken mercenary. The dark figures bent together nearby sit here for just that reason and scowl at your approach as though they owned the sawdust under your boots. They're an ugly lot. You also see the Galyden disk and a warped mistwood table.
Also in the room: Lord Galyden

[Hog's Pen]
This rugged tavern is a single great hall, windowless and choked with smoke from its blazing hearth and the long pipes favored by many of the local dwarves. Tables and benches are scattered about, clumped here and there in bunches where a large group of miners or a logging team has staked a claim. A row of barrels set on end near the fire and tended by a gruff bearded fellow seems to serve as a bar. Around it, rain and ale have softened the dirt floor to mud. You also see a sturdy oak table and a cured flap of hide that serves as a door.
Also in the room: a stunned Lord Decaine who is lying down, Lady Galadril, Lord Vollendam who is lying down, Lord Raylock, a stunned Lord Faegil who is lying down, a stunned Lady Shanleigh who is lying down, Lady Guendal

[Hog's Pen]
This rugged tavern is a single great hall, windowless and choked with smoke from its blazing hearth and the long pipes favored by many of the local dwarves. Tables and benches are scattered about, clumped here and there in bunches where a large group of miners or a logging team has staked a claim. A row of barrels set on end near the fire and tended by a gruff bearded fellow seems to serve as a bar. Around it, rain and ale have softened the dirt floor to mud. You also see a sturdy oak table and a cured flap of hide that serves as a door.

Here at the farthest end of the hall the fire is just a hazy glow, long shadows lie across the floor, and the smoke paws you like a drunken mercenary. The dark figures bent together nearby sit here for just that reason and scowl at your approach as though they owned the sawdust under your boots. They're an ugly lot. You also see the Galyden disk and a warped mistwood table.

Here at the farthest end of the hall the fire is just a hazy glow, long shadows lie across the floor, and the smoke paws you like a drunken mercenary. The dark figures bent together nearby sit here for just that reason and scowl at your approach as though they owned the sawdust under your boots. They're an ugly lot. You also see a warped mistwood table.
Also in the room: Lord Galliphile
Obvious exits: south.

This rugged tavern is a single great hall, windowless and choked with smoke from its blazing hearth and the long pipes favored by many of the local dwarves. Tables and benches are scattered about, clumped here and there in bunches where a large group of miners or a logging team has staked a claim. A row of barrels set on end near the fire and tended by a gruff bearded fellow seems to serve as a bar. Around it, rain and ale have softened the dirt floor to mud. You also see the Galyden disk, a sturdy oak table and a cured flap of hide that serves as a door.
Also in the room: a stunned Lord Decaine who is lying down, Lord Galyden, Lord Vollendam, a stunned Lord Faegil who is lying down, Lady Guendal, Lady Tiaral, Lady Haelra, Lady Galadril who is lying down, Lord Raylock, Lady Shanleigh who is seated
