Shrine of the Anguished Spirit [s]. The Sifu and Two Mystics are here.
The Sifu says: We managed to fight him off the other day, but now he is back with renewed strength. Will you help us yet again?
You say: Truth, I Wille Indeed, Mye Olde Friend... Fightinge Those Of The Light Side Bye Side Withe Thine Followerse Ise Alwayse A Pleasure. > - s The long passageway ends here, at an ornate door probably leading to an important shrine or altar of the Temple. The last few pairs of torches brightly illuminate the elaborate doorway and the final set of demonic masks.
There are two obvious exits : south and north. > s Temple: End of the Hallway [s,n]. > - s The hallway through the Temple of the Ebon Essence is finally approaching the far side of the temple, drawing to an end just to the north. Set into the walls at intervals of thirteen paces, pairs of torches cast flickering shadows onto long, blood-red carpet. More demonic masks, each diabolical in an original fashion, stare sbalefully from the walls between the torches. A narrow door leads west to unknown parts of the temple.
There are three obvious exits : south, west and north. > s Temple: Hallway [s,w,n]. > - w The floor in this long room is kept clear of furniture, leaving the monks plenty of space to practice hand to hand combat and more advanced weapon styles. Racks of foreign pole-arms line the walls, as well as racks of shorter weapons. Several scimitars with overly broad blades hang above long stilletos with guards that curve outward into twin poniards. Several twin pairs of minature sickles are racked beyond the stilletos, and you shudder thinking what those wicked weapons would do to a humanoid body.
There is one obvious exit: east. > - s Seemingly without end, this long hall continues to stretch through the Temple of the Ebon Essence. Set into the walls at intervals of thirteen paces, pairs of torches cast flickering shadows onto long, blood-red carpet. More demonic masks, each diabolical in an original fashion, stare sbalefully from the walls between the torches. A pair of unmarked doors joins the progression of the masks, leading to unknown parts of the temple.
There are four obvious exits : south, west, north and east. > s
Temple: Hallway [s,w,n,e]. > - w The spacious chamber appears almost as a barracks, with neat rows of militant sleeping pads, each with neatly stored weapons and carefully folded clothing on individual shelves. From the large number of pads in this room alone, you surmise that Sifu has drawn a large number of disciples to his temple.
There is one obvious exit: east. Bedivere D'Rose and Two Mystics are here. > w > -e You feel cursed as you enter the aura of Bedivere. Temple Common Room [e]. Bedivere D'Rose and Two Mystics are here. Xuerin howls in fury: "A vile Paladin! I will have that accursed knight's blood!" Xuerin pulls you into battle! > ct You see Mystic stagger as Bedivere bashes into her with his Salvation. Bedivere's Salvation screams into your mind: "DIE UNHOLY ONE!!!".
