 Fikks went through an ironbound oak door.
 [Spider Temple, Leg of Victim]
 The close confines of the hallway snakes its stoney way northwest and to

 Where the hell are we?
contributed by Amerlise




[Darkstone, Dungeon]
An axe blade is embedded in the stone floor, its shaft rotted away long ago. Parallel scratches on the wall next to the       blade are evidence of a rather largish creature, or at least a creature with larger than average claws.
Obvious exits: north, east, west.
 Fikks followed.

 You snicker.

 [Darkstone, Dungeon]
A burned out torch lies cast aside against one wall, where it landed after skidding across the floor for several feet. The floor is streaked black with dried pitch and soot, which mark the trail of the torch when it was discarded.
Obvious exits: north, south.
 Fikks followed.

 [Darkstone, Dungeon]
You have the feeling that you're being watched. The corridors to the west and south look empty, and you don't hear anything, but there's a feeling between your shoulder blades as though someone were about to stick a knife there. You also see an iron door.
Obvious exits: south, west.
 Fikks followed.

 [Darkstone, Dungeon]
A small clay pot is set high on the wall in the corner. The pot glows with a dim, flickering light, illuminating the north and east branches of the corridor for a few paces in each direction, and leaves many wavering shadows where monsters may be lurking. You also see an iron door.
Obvious exits: north, east.
 Fikks followed.

Hideous black flames leap down toward you from the ceiling, then dissipate, leaving no remnant but the foul stench of singed flesh.

Your disk arrives, following you dutifully.
 >go door
 [Darkstone, Dungeon]
Deep brown wood panels this room, making it look even darker and smaller than it actually is. A solid-looking trapdoor with heavy hinges is set into one corner of the floor, surrounded by tightly fitted grey stone. A burned-out torch lies discarded in the corner near the trapdoor, which looks blackened and singed in places, but is still as solid as ever. You also see an iron door.
Obvious exits: none.
 Fikks followed.
 >go panel
 [Darkstone, Dungeon]
You feel your way along this dark passage. The walls feel spongy, and you realize that they're covered with some kind of moss. It seems to absorb any light in the area, with the result that you can't see much past your nose. Hopefully, any monsters lurking about can't see either...
Obvious exits: north.

You pick your way fearfully through the dark, one careful step at a time. You hear a drip, drip, drip coming from somewhere over your head, and a faint rustling noise coming from the north.
Obvious exits: north, south.
 Fikks followed.
 >[Darkstone, Dungeon]
The ceiling seems to have partly collapsed here some time in the past, leaving boulders, rocks and smaller rubble to block the passageway. As you climb over the pile, careful of where you place your feet, something with a lot of legs crawls over your hand. You hear rustling and clicking noises coming from the north.

 [Darkstone, Dungeon]
This stretch of passage echoes with rustling, clicking and scuttling noises. Your boots crunch with each step you take. You get a horrible, sick suspicion in the pit of your stomach, which is confirmed when hundreds of crawly little feet start climbing up your legs. You imagine suffocating under a mountain of insects and feel slightly sick to your stomach. You also see a banshee.
Obvious exits: north, south.
