Chamber Of The Pits
   Glyphs and magical wards adorn the smooth walls and ceiling of this
frigid chamber.  In the floor, five shallow pits have been carved, each
a semi-spherical bowl in which sigils have been scribed.  Power, dark
power, radiates in this room.  
   A single door lies in the southern wall while a small crevasse can
be seen flawing the glyphs on the eastern wall.

A Burning Corridor
   You are standing in what could only be a volcanic vent.  Smoke and fire
rises up from the smouldering floor, filling the air with a burning, choking 
ash.  The walls themselves boast crystals of hot sulfur and seem to melt
in the intense heat.
   The corridor continues to the south, where it grows even hotter.  To the
north however, a cold mist seeps from under the door, creating a vortex of
roiling steam at its base.

A Searing Tunnel
   Smoke billows from the streaming lava that bubbles and flows backwards
into the heart of the mountain.  The eastern and western walls show strong
signs of melting and molten sulfur drips onto the tunnel floor, creating
a toxic gas as it splashes into the lava streams.
   The tunnel continues to the south, though it seems to look more stable
to the north.

A Flame Geyser
   Bluish fire spews upward from a vent here in the floor, boring a small
chimney in the tunnel ceiling.  Molten sulfur drips into the flame, creating
a yellowish gas which chokes you despite your magical protection from the
hellish elements.
   The tunnel continues southward through the flames and northward into
an unstable tunnel.

A Volcanic Chimney
   You stand at the top of a chimney.  Superheated air mixes with ash here
to create a thick smoke which blinds you as you stare down into the depths 
of the hole.  The walls, dripping with molten sulfur and other minerals,
form rivulets into the pit that get spewed out during the updrafts from 
below.
   The exit of the tunnel lies to the north, where the tunnel gradually
melts away like the southern, eastern, and wested walls here.

In The Chimney
   You are floating, buffeted by streams of superheated air and ash.  As
you rise and fall, you feel that you can manipulate the currents, riding
the cooler ones to descend into the chimney while floating on hotter ones
to rise.
   All around you, the walls of the chimney are scarred with a blackened
crystal amidst the dense black rock that composes the core of the mountain.
   Below you, you can see nothing but are aware of the occasional geyser
of ash that disrupts the currents and spins you around.

A Volcanic Chimney
   Flames erupt from below you, shooting past you in yellow spears of
light.  The walls of the shaft seem to drip inward, streaming into the
heart of the chimney below.
   The winds are powerful here and you find controlling your movements
is becoming more difficult as you soar upwards on hot currents or
plummet on cold ones.

Searing Flames
   You are floating above a massive pool of magma.  Through the waves of
heat, you can make out the enormous mass of fiery liquid which bubbles and
shoots forth flames below you.
   Oddly enough, you notice a cavern opening up below you to the south,
just beyond the range of the pool.  The reddish glow of the magma lights
the area in a hellish crimson.
   Above you, ash and smoke roil in the currents of air.

Magma Pool
   You are standing on the southern end of a high-walled magma pool.  A
path here curves around the pool to the west, skirting the wall that holds
back the molten rock.
   The air is strangely breathable here and almost tolerable aside from 
the constant scent of sulfur that seems to dominate the walls and floors 
of the hellish cavern.

A Cavern
   You are walking in a high-ceilinged cavern.  No stalactites hang from
above as these tunnels show evidence of volcanic activity which long
since dissolved any limestone formations had they been present.
   The tunnel continues to both the east and west, growing misty and
clouded as you head away magma pool to the east.

A Rift
   Swirling gases engulf you as you enter this semi-ethereal corridor.
There appears to be no floor, no walls, no substance to this vortex
of mists and vapours.
   To the west, huge bands of magically cold iron reinforce a magical
door of solid light, preventing entrance from the material world into
what lies beyond.
   To the east, the corridor seems to lead back to the material world,
and though you are not certain of your location, you feel sure that 
you stand in a rift between worlds.
[ Exits: east west ]

541H 273M 232V > A Courtyard
   You are standing in an underground volcanic cavern.  At some point long
in the past, a pocket of magma drained away from this place, leaving a flat
cavern floor and a domed ceiling nearly two hundred feet above you.
   Towers and structures of basalt, obviously constructed rather than natural,
have turned this cavern into a subterranean city.  Clawed footprints mar
the courtyard where you have entered, indicating that this is a high-traffic
area for the inhabitants of this city.
   To the north, you can see the side of a building, while to the south,
smooth cavern walls rise and slope above you.  As you look west, you
see the street continue, then turn sharply as it meets the side of another
building to the west.
[ Exits: east west ]
A pile of gold coins is lying here.                            

541H 273M 230V > A Tiled Street
   Carved basalt has been cut into slabs and placed on the ground to 
create this street.  Wheel treads can be seen marring the crude tiles,
giving the impression of heavy carts being pulled down this lane and
out the courtyard to the east.
   To your west, a wall, perhaps that of a building or defensive
structure, stands high above you, partially melding with the ceiling
almost thirty feet above you.
   The street continues to the north and exits to the courtyard east
of here.

giving the impression of heavy carts being pulled down this lane and
out the courtyard to the east.
   To your west, a wall, perhaps that of a building or defensive
structure, stands high above you, partially melding with the ceiling
almost thirty feet above you.
