[Exits: east] You stand in the front yard of the Trading Post. The large store appears well maintained and prosperous having been freshly white washed and a new roof constructed recently. To the north, you can see (and smell) the south wall of the stables. An iron fence with two gates, one south heading around the south side of the building and another allowing you to return to the familiar cobblestone square to the east. A large door to the west leads inside the Trading Post, a shield shaped sign posted beside it. The sky is cloudy and a cold northern gust blows. BeelzeBub was last here, traveling east.

Ancient Cobblestone Square [Exits: north east south west up] Pausing to catch your breath, you glance up at the sky and notice a strange, grey vortex swirling above the mountain. Pulling your eyes from it, you see that you stand on a large cobblestone square. By the look of the stone, you would guess the square was constructed a few millenia ago, yet the stones still fit together so tightly that nothing has been able to infiltrate the minute cracks between them. The square extends to the east and north while a dense forest restricts passage to the west and a frozen snow covered trail leads down the mountain. The sky is cloudy and a cold northern gust blows. BeelzeBub was last here, traveling west. (Invis) Rocky is here. Kordos is here. <246hp 188ma 463mv(30622) 16270gp > Your lightning bolt MUTILATES Kordos. Kordos is DEAD!!
