Rooms in Enclave

• By the Barrier - To the west the magical energy barrier crackles and hums to itself, almost looking harmless. Almost -- all around on the ground are charred corpses and bodies. Several poles with skulls on top face to the west, warning travellers on the forest paths away from here. The air smells of death and decay, and the air is very still. You feel uncomfortable.
• Cage - This is a small, dirty cage, with only a bucket for wastes, another bucket for food, and a dirty towel for a bed. The whole room has a terrible stench about it.
• Clearing in the Forest - Several trails in the forest intersect here in a small clearing. The dirt seems matted down, and you see many footprints in the soil. Nearby you hear a bird's chirp abruptly cut off in a loud squawk, and then silence. The paths seem well-traveled, the undergrowth matted down and the foilage hacked away to leave plenty of room or a traveller to pass in every cardinal direction, excepting the west path seems fairly overgrown... You feel watched.
• Forest Trail - Phew!!! It's a bit ripe in here. There are stalls lining both sides of the wall in here and a big sleigh in the very back. You can hear hoofs scratching the ground in a frenzy and antlers rustling against the gates. They look eager to get out and the one at the back with the red nose looks downright vicious. He's the only one that isn't rattling his antlers he's just flashing you a menacing grin.
• Forest Trail - A north-south trail leads through the woods here, with a small side trail leading off to the east. The trees provide adequate cover from the sky, but through a few holes in the foilage you spot the magical barrier above you, keeping you from escaping by flight. You feel slightly captured.
• Forest Trail - This path leads from the main clearing to the west to intersect with a north-south path just to the east. A small sapling on the north side of the trail has a rope tied around one of its top branches; an unused snare evidently. You still feel as if you're being watched in the back of your mind, and adrenaline pumps into your brain like a lightning fuzz.
• In the Forest - The energy barrier runs through the woods on its east- west course here, just north of the trail you are walking on. A faint humming seems to eminate from the glowing field, pushing the normal sounds of the forest into the background. For a short moment, you wonder if the field is keeping something in, or you out. It makes you wonder...
• In the Forest - The northern pathway stops abruptly here, halted by some sort of glowing energy barrier running through the woods. A game trail, seemingly well traveled, runs east- west along the magical barrier's length. Very strange.
• In the Forest - The energy field makes a sudden ninety-degree turn here, running to the north and west out of sight through the thickening woods. The trail you are on curves to skirt the edge of the magical barrier in either direction. Curious...who or what is keeping this field in place, and for what purpose?
• In the Forest - The woods thicken here, and surpisingly, you see a tree completely cut in half by the magical barrier running north-south here. The tree looks healthy and unaffected by the energy field passing right through its center. Odd...
• In the Forest - The magical energy barrier runs straight north-south, unaffected by dips in the grounds, intervening rocks and trees, everything. From the north, you hear a faint rushing noise above the humming of the field. The trail you are on continues to the north and south, only a few feet away from the barrier it follows.
• In the Forest - Here the field changes color, becoming almost transparent. Beyond, you think you can make out a few shapes, but nothing too terribly distinct. From the north comes the rushing sound of water, and through the trees you believe you can see a river cutting through the forest. The trail you are on leads north-south through the woods, following the energy barrier all along its length.
• In the Forest - This trail runs parallel to the energy barrier to your north, seemingly all the way up to the mountains to the west that form the boundries of this valley. Walking along, you scare a small squirrel, which leaps through the barrier without a second thought! Your hand is still repulsed by the magical field, however.
• In the Forest - To the west the mountains rise high up, rocky and lifeless. The trail you are walking on heads west to the end of the forest, and back east. Each way the strange energy barrier stands just to the north, inscrutable, magical, and impenetrable.
• In the Forest - The trail ends here where the mountains begin abruptly. Looking up, you note that the climb would be rough, hazardous, and probably not worth the effort; the energy barrier continues up the mountain side out of sight. The only exit is back to the east.
• Just Passing Through... - The energy barrier seems to push against you ineffectively as you shove your way through it. All your hairs stick up on your body from the static electricity, and electric shocks sting your body from every metallic piece of equipment you are carrying. You think with a final shove, you can break through to the other side...
• Laboratory - This is a fairly roomy laboratory that extends to the north, with cages set on the east side of the room. A metal table here is empty, although you can see some outlines in the dust that suggest books had laid here once.
