[ 25] Nayr: Area Changes
Mon Aug 28 00:11:16 2000
To: All
The temples and offices of Tel and JohnPaul have been removed, as have the temples of Masher, Elladan, Torchbearer, and Okk. In addition, the areas Mummy Tombs and Tower of Penfold have been removed. Old items from both will continue to be valid, as usual... there were very few such items from either area. The exceptions were the flowers in Penfold, I'll see what I can do about creating another flower shop. :) Neither area fit well, in theme or location, and didn't seem to get enough use to outweigh their poor fits. Their locations are available for better-fitting new areas, if you are interested... check the FYI list and Help Area Writing for more details.
Thanks,
-Nayr the Wise, Area Coordinator
P.S. As always... these changes are after the next reboot. :)

Before a Huge Ivy-covered Gate
[Exits: north south]
The end of a very narrow path through the dense trees culminates in a large
steel gate, covered with Ivy. You can barely make out solid bars of steel
nearly twenty feet tall protruding from the trunks of the trees, supporting
the gate. Quite curiously, the trees which seem to have overgrown everything
else, stop abruptly at the steel bars and the gate, as if something prevented
them from growing even another inch inwards.
The sky is cloudless and a warm southerly breeze blows.

(Light Cyan Aura) Gregar is resting here.
