Underbrush Shelter
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
You find yourself in the midst of a dense thicket of underbrush.  The foliage 
rises around you on either side and forms a nice, dry shelter.  Very little 
light filters in from beyond, so it is difficult to see who else is here.  The 
shelter seems suprisingly large, though.
  
A break in the foliage leads out to a clearing.

Out-of-Character Lounge
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
You stand in the Out-of-Character Lounge, the one area on the MUCK where you 
are NOT encouraged to roleplay.  In fact, it's downright frowned-upon! As 
such, the Lounge is a perfect hangout for players who are tired, idle, or 
otherwise needing a break.  This purpose in mind, the lounge is cosy, casual 
and completely relaxed. There are sofas, chairs, a few bird perches, and 
straw beds set up in conversational clusters, and a big bulletin board posted 
along one wall with notes stuck to it with thumbtacks.   
   
Doorways lead off in various directions, all neatly labelled with plastic 
engraved signs for your navigation convenience.  There's also a spiral 
staircase in the center of the room that leads down to the lower level of the 
OOC area.

The Shelter Tree Clearing
*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*
You find yourself in the midst of a pretty little clearing.  It is shady and
cool here, and you can see from the tracks in the brush that many creatures 
must move through here.  
  
A large, stout tree grows here, one that isn't very tall, but its crown is 
so thick that you can barely see up into it.  It bears no fruit, however.  
Its roots splay out across the ground at your feet, and among the thicker 
ones near the trunk there is a large, cavernous hole leading down below.  
Also near the base is a lush growth of underbrush that forms a kind of 
shelter as well.
 
A well-worn path leads south to the Gathering Circle.

Gathering Circle
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
What a sweet place you have wandered to. The forest trees here are scattered 
across a soft meadow of heather and wildflowers, and the sun dapples the 
ground through the leaves above. This is a wide section of earth, and it 
seems to be a gathering place - indeed, there is a ring of stones in one side 
of the open clearing where it seems fires have been built over many nights. 
To the south, a worn path leads to the Cauldron Pool and the waterfall that 
feeds it. You can also see a path leading west toward the cliff-face. To the 
east the path leads into the deeper forests of Lantern Waste.

At the Edge of Lantern Waste
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
 You stand at the edge of Lantern Waste, where the trees are still widely
 spaced and travelling through them is relatively easy.  There is a path
 here that continues eastward through the trees, but it doesn't appear to
 be as well-travelled as the one that brought you here.  Raspberry bushes 
 grow here, as they do all along the edge of the waste.  Their thorny brambles
 make passing through difficult in places, but they are fortunately laden with
 fruit.
  
 To the west, you can see the Gathering Circle through the trees.  To the 
east,  you can pass into Lantern Waste.

Cauldron Pool(#270R/GKLM)
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
The best word for the spot where you stand would probably be.. grandiose. To 
the west is a roaring waterfall, where (presumably) a river from somewhere in 
the western wilds falls over Narnia's western border-cliffs to create 
Cauldron pool. You are standing on a path that forks three ways - east, to 
follow along the bank of the Great River (which begins here!), north, fording 
the relatively small 'river' and continuing into the forest homes, and south 
where it curves around the pool and to an opening in the cliff.

South side of the Cauldron Pool(#278R/KLM)
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
Hereabouts is a small path that borders the Cauldron Pool. It curves 
northeast, crossing the smaller stream that flows out of the pool just north 
of here, and leads to the north side and the wood that lies beyond.  Where you 
stand now is clear, but sheltered by the cliffs.  To the southwest, a cave 
opening can be seen leading into a den of some sort.  Further on to the south, 
the path continues and eventually disappears into a lush green little meadow.  
The south side of Lantern Waste stretches on to the southwest.

South Bank of the Great River
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
You stand on the south bank of the Great River, just east of the Cauldron 
Pool.  The air is misty and cool here, and you can hear the dull roar of the 
waterfall spilling into the pool to the west of you.
   
The sky above is clear where you can see it through the leafy treetops.  The 
river flows on eastward through the trees, babbling cheerfully in its shallow 
bed.  The riverbank path continues with it.  There is also a path leading 
southward through the trees here.  It leads deeper into the wilds.

Raspberry Thicket
-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-*-
You find yourself standing in a big clump of Raspberry bushes!  The rich, 
fragrant scent of the fruits fills the air, and the effect is nearly 
intoxicating!  Fortunately, this seems to be a safe place to sit and relax, 
provided you're wary of the prickles.
  
You can see no obvious paths leading out, but you're hardly walled in.  
Chances are, you could press through the bushes in most any direction from 
here.

It is a crisp winter morning. Snow fell during the night, but it is thinner here in the raspberry thicket. Snowback enters the thicket from the north. He is alert but relaxed. He trots purposefully southward.
Indra walks through the bushes with her nose to the ground, but she lifts her nose at the scent of a familiar Wolf.

I even came back up here for Christmas with a mind to sound out the big fella himself to see if he could use another hunter .... Let's just say his bark preceded his bite, I didn't see another wolf but what were all the other critters were chittering behind me back about the big bad wolf down from the Moors here to eat their wee ones, and how good old Nevarre was sure to chase him off or worse .... Well, truth be told, none of the critters was ugly to me, but I definitely heard Nevarre was set against me, and that big unicorn said he never knew the old boy to change his mind once he'd set it."

Footpath

The wilds of Lantern Waste press close in around you here, the trees seeming 
to lean in toward you curiously as you follow the forest path between them.  
The air is filled with the sounds of rustling leaves and birdsong, and overall 
there is a peaceful feeling about this area.  There are a number of hollows 
and thickets on either side of the path that likely make up homes for Lantern 
Waste's inhabitants.
 
The ground slopes downward to the south, but gently.  The path continues both 
east and west from here, but from the tracks in the dirt and leaves at your 
feet you can tell that creatures travel through here in many directions.

Out-of-Character Lounge

You stand in the Out-of-Character Lounge, the one area on the MUCK where you 
are NOT encouraged to roleplay.  In fact, it's downright frowned-upon! As 
such, the Lounge is a perfect hangout for players who are tired, idle, or 
otherwise needing a break.  This purpose in mind, the lounge is cosy, casual 
and completely relaxed. There are sofas, chairs, a few bird perches, and 
straw beds set up in conversational clusters, and a big bulletin board posted 
along one wall with notes stuck to it with thumbtacks.   
   
Doorways lead off in various directions, all neatly labelled with plastic 
engraved signs for your navigation convenience.  There's also a spiral 
staircase in the center of the room that leads down to the lower level of the 
OOC area.

You stand on a small footpath that runs east-west through Lantern Waste.  
There are trees all around you -- mainly firs and pines -- and the ground 
around you is covered with a dusting of reddish needles and cones.  The path 
runs along a kind of ridge here -- to the south, the ground crops outward a 
bit, and then drops sharply, following the descending landscape that follows 
the river down into the lowlands.  You can hear the river off to the east

You find yourself standing on the west bank of the Great River of Narnia, at 
the top of a rather deep valley.  To the south and west, the landscape slopes 
sharply downward, falling away from the trees that make up Lantern Waste.  The 
river winds its way southeast, toward lower lands beyond.
  
The sun is shining above, and this particular stretch of the river is pleasant 
and grassy.  The path is well-worn, following the riverbank both upstream 
toward the valley's lip and downstream into the grassy lowlands.  In the 
distance to the south, you can see misty-looking mountains peeking above the 
forests.

The Great River of Narnia flows down from the northwest, curving eastward here 
as it meanders its way through the Great Plains.  The river valley rises in 
low, tree-covered hills to the west.
  
This particular stretch of the riverbank is steep and overgrown with reedy 
grasses. Dragonflies hover among the cat-tails, and you can hear the 
occasional splash of fish swimming in the water. The riverbank path follows

At The Rapids Fork in the Great River
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
You stand on a low bank alongside the Great River of Narnia.  This particular 
bank is rockier than those upstream, and it juts out a bit over the water.  A 
smaller, noisier river flows down from the mountains to the southwest and 
joins the Great River here.  As a result, the Great River's bed is wide and 
rocky, and the water rushes past here at an alarming rate. From the look of 
things, many Narnians have either entered the river or fallen in.  It doesn't 
look particularly safe.
  
The smaller stream is fordable, though not easily. The rocks that crop up 
across it are wet and look slippery. The riverbank path continues north from 
here, following the riverbank upstream into a river valley.

You stand on a low, muddy riverbank at the north side of the Swift River.  
The mountain stream is wide here, and flowing even more swiftly and noisily 
than it does upstream.  It's almost as if its waters senses it's about to 
join those of the Great River just to the east, and they can hardly wait to 
get there.
  
This section of the stream feels almost alive with life.  Flowers are 
blooming, birds are singing, butterflies drift about.  Combined with the 
babbling sounds of the river, this place is extremely pleasant.  The 
riverbank continues downstream to the east, where it meets the Great River, 
and upstream through the hills to the west.

You stand on the northern bank of the Swift River, a watercourse that flows 
down from the mountains to the south.  Its bed is shallow and rocky, and its 
waters lend credence to its name by racing across them at surprising speed.  
The river carries with it a cheerful, babbling song that just enhances the 
already pleasant feel to this part of Narnia.  Flowers grow here in abundance, 
and little wooded glens and glades can be seen growing on and among the 
rolling foothills between here and the bases of the mountains that stand over 
them like misty giants.
 
The riverbank continues east and west from here.  To the north, you see a 
wooded copse of silver birch trees at the other side of the rise here.

gurgles cheerfully across its shallow bed of stones, winding its way out of 
the Shuddering Wood to the west and on toward the Great River somewhere to the 
east.  The countryside is more open here, and you are surrounded by a small 
patch of wildflowers that grow here at the river's edge.  Butterflies flutter 
around lazily.  This appears to be a nice place to relax.

east.  This particular stretch runs through a wooded glade between two rather 
high hills.  On this side of the riverbank, the smaller of the two creates a 
rise to the north.  On the other side, the hill is much higher.  Crossing here 
appears to be quite possible, though probably a wet undertaking.

through the foothills of the lowlands until it reaches the Great River 
somewhere east of here.  This particular stretch of the bank is overshadowed 
by trees, so it's difficult to see much further downstream.  Upstream, 
however, the riverbank bends to the southwest.  You can see a stand of 
evergreens there that make up a dense woodland, nestled between the lowland 
foothills.  Beyond, you can make out the misty shape of the western cliffs.

the woods and eastward until it joins with the Great in the distance.  This 
area is surprisingly open compared to the wooded areas to the west, and you 
can actually make out the twinkling waters of the Great River making their way 
southward along the plains.  To the northeast and across the river, the forest 
thins out into a series of woody glens between the foothills.  Flowers grow 
here in abundance.

distant sounds of hammers coming from somewhere within.  Each strike of a 
hammer shakes the ground at your feet.
  
The grove extends southward for some distance, and you can make out more

the woods and eastward until it joins with the Great in the distance.  This 
area is surprisingly open compared to the wooded areas to the west, and you 
can actually make out the twinkling waters of the Great River making their way 
southward along the plains.  To the northeast and across the river, the forest 
thins out into a series of woody glens between the foothills.  Flowers grow 
here in abundance.
 
To the west, you see the evergreen woodland that is the Shuddering Wood.  
There is a small stand of fir trees just ahead.

You stand on the northern bank of the swift river from the mountains.  It 
gurgles past you cheerfully across its shallow bed of stones, winding its way 
through the foothills of the lowlands until it reaches the Great River 
somewhere east of here.  This particular stretch of the bank is overshadowed 
by trees, so it's difficult to see much further downstream.  Upstream, 
however, the riverbank bends to the southwest.  You can see a stand of 
evergreens there that make up a dense woodland, nestled between the lowland 
foothills.  Beyond, you can make out the misty shape of the western cliffs.

You stand on the northern bank of the swift river from the mountains.  It 
gurgles cheerfully across its shallow bed of stones, winding its way out of 
the Shuddering Wood to the west and on toward the Great River somewhere to the 
east.  This particular stretch runs through a wooded glade between two rather 
high hills.  On this side of the riverbank, the smaller of the two creates a 
rise to the north.  On the other side, the hill is much higher.  Crossing here 
appears to be quite possible, though probably a wet undertaking.
 
The riverbank continues downstream to the east and upstream to the west.

North Bank of the Swift River
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
You stand on the northern bank of the Swift River, a watercourse that flows 
down from the mountains to the south.  Its bed is shallow and rocky, and its 
waters lend credence to its name by racing across them at surprising speed.  
The river carries with it a cheerful, babbling song that just enhances the 
already pleasant feel to this part of Narnia.  Flowers grow here in abundance, 
and little wooded glens and glades can be seen growing on and among the 
rolling foothills between here and the bases of the mountains that stand over 
them like misty giants.
 
The riverbank continues east and west from here.  To the north, you see a 
wooded copse of silver birch trees at the other side of the rise here.

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
You stand on a low, muddy riverbank at the north side of the Swift River.  
The mountain stream is wide here, and flowing even more swiftly and noisily 
than it does upstream.  It's almost as if its waters senses it's about to 
join those of the Great River just to the east, and they can hardly wait to 
get there.
  
This section of the stream feels almost alive with life.  Flowers are 
blooming, birds are singing, butterflies drift about.  Combined with the 
babbling sounds of the river, this place is extremely pleasant.  The 
riverbank continues downstream to the east, where it meets the Great River, 
and upstream through the hills to the west.

At The Rapids Fork in the Great River
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
You stand on a low bank alongside the Great River of Narnia.  This particular 
bank is rockier than those upstream, and it juts out a bit over the water.  A 
smaller, noisier river flows down from the mountains to the southwest and 
joins the Great River here.  As a result, the Great River's bed is wide and 
rocky, and the water rushes past here at an alarming rate. From the look of 
things, many Narnians have either entered the river or fallen in.  It doesn't 
look particularly safe.
  
The smaller stream is fordable, though not easily. The rocks that crop up 
across it are wet and look slippery. The riverbank path continues north from 
here, following the riverbank upstream into a river valley.

Southwest Bank of the Great River
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
You stand on a rocky bank of the Great River, just north of the foothills of 
the Mountains.  The river must deepen considerably here, because the water 
flows much more slowly than it does just upstream.  In fact, the river becomes 
rather lazy here, its waters quiet as they swirl along in gentle eddies.  
Grasses grow thick, and insects buzz over the surface.
  
You can see the Eastern Wilds in the distant southeast, but they are still a 
long ways off.  Between there and here, the lowlands along the river roll in 
gentle, grassy hills.  The riverbank path continues downstream.  Upstream, a 
smaller river joins the Great.  While it is fordable, it appears to be rather 
dangerous.

You stand at the riverbank along the Swift River, which flows eastward along 
the bases of two hills here.  Across the river you can see some low hilly 
country to the north.  On this side, two larger hills stand side-by-side, the 
smaller of which rises immediately south of you.  It is dotted with trees and 
wildflowers.  The river ripples past over its shallow bed of stones, adding 
its noisy song to the chirping of birds and the sounds of the rustling leaves.

You stand at the riverbank along the Swift River, which runs around the base 
of a steepish hill that rises above you to the south.  The landscape here is 
mostly grassy, with scattered larches and birch trees growing here and there.  
Primroses can be seen bobbing their blossomed heads in the gentle breeze in 
little clumps between their trunks.
 
This appears to be a good place to climb the hill, if you are so inclined.

You stand on the bank of the Swift River, and at the foot of a rather tall 
rise of a hillock immediately to the south of it.  The hill is covered in 
scattered rocks and trees, and occasional patches of wildflowers.  The river 
cuts a path around its base, and this particular stretch follows a longish 
saddle between it and the next rolling hill just to the east.  Fortunately, 
this track seems well-travelled and sturdy, so falling into the cool river 
water isn't likely.
 
The riverbank continues downstream to the east and upstream to the west.

The Swift River, a shallow, noisy watercourse that emerges from the Shuddering 
Wood just west of here, babbles past the low riverbank on which you stand, its 
waters glinting in the patchy sunlight.  The water here is quite clear, and 
you can make out numerous shapes of fish darting here and there among the 
shallows.  The bank is quite low, too, and judging from the sheer number of 
footprints marking the mud, it appears that this spot must be a popular 
fishing location among the local population.
 
The riverbank continues downstream to the east.  Upstream, the bank is shaded 
by some hemlock and fir trees.

You stand on a low, muddy riverbank at a bend in the Swift River.  The 
mountain stream is narrow and noisy, babbling over its rocky bed as the water 
flows down from the southwest around a bend. It is shaded on both sides here 
by the hemlock and fir trees that make up the Shuddering Wood, and discarded 
needles that have snagged on rocks below the surface give the water a reddish-
brown cast.

and white pine trees that crowd close to the water's edge here have shed 
needles across the bank and into the water, giving both a reddish-brown color.
The ground here is solid, but you can feel a periodic rumble below your feet.

East Bank of the Swift River
-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-
You stand on the eastern bank of the Swift River, a fast-running mountain 
stream flowing down from the mountains to the south.  Its waters are clear and 
cool, twinkling merrily in the sunlight above.  This particular stretch of the 
riverbank is fairly open; the foliage here is mainly grasses and small shrubs, 
though to the northwest you can see the shady evergreen forest known as 
Shuddering Wood.  The Swift's bed here is somewhat disrupted by the presence 
of a small and haphazardly-built beaver's dam on the far bank.  It extends 
part of the way across, and does provide a way across the river.
  
The riverbank continues northwest around a bend, and upstream it meanders its 
way through the foothills in and and amongst smaller clumps of trees.  There 
is a faintish sort of path here leading north.  It disappears into a copse of 
trees at the edge of Shuddering Wood.

Shudderwood Glade

You find yourself standing in a perfectly charming little clearing surrounded 
on all sides by tall, whispery white pine trees and carpeted with the soft, 
red-brown needles.  The glade apparently formed when a particularly large 
member of the evergreen titans fell, because the glade is bordered to the east 
by an impressively-sized log.  It's in an advanced state of decay, and judging 
from its size it provides a nice homeplace for some of the glade's residents.  

  
In fact, this glade appears to be quite well-populated.  Judging from the 
rustling of the trees, the heavily-thicketed underbrush, and the trampled pine-
needle floor, it would seem that many creatures make their home here.
  
The Swift River can be heard rushing by to the west.  To the south, the forest 
appears to open out into the lowlands.

You find yourself standing in a kind of sheltered nook within the thicket. 
There are tangles of branches and vines overhead that keep out the elements, 
and the ground here is dry.  You're obviously not the first to have explored 
your way here.  Openings in the brush -- tunnels, practically -- lead off in 
all directions to the dens of other beasts who have come before you and made 
their homes here.  There is a larger break in the foliage to the west, leading 
out to the glade.
