Rooms in THe Abandoned Cathedral
← Back to Areas
- A Bottomless Pit - Neighbour, it appears that you have chosen the wrong path to continue your voyages. It seems that this pit falls a long, long way, and falling to the bottom just might take forever...
- A Cloistered Hall - You stand in part of a long stone hallway lined on both the east and western sides with doorways. In most of the doorways it appears that the wooden doors that were once there in their entirety are smashed and destroyed. The doors on either side of the hallway here are no different.
- A Crypt - Standing in this part of the crypt, you notice that there is a set of wooden stairs set into the corner of the room, leading up to the floors above. This small chamber has two other exits, one to the east and one to the south through a pair of archways. Other things of note in here are the small metal plates in the walls with tiny brass plaques set into each one.
- A Crypt - This small chamber in the crypts has three exits, one to the west, one to the north, and one to the south, all through a pair of archways. Other things of note in here are the small metal plates in the walls with tiny brass plaques set into each one.

- A Spiral Stairway - You stand on a wooden landing. Looking eastwards, you notice that through the stone doorway, a hallway leads northwards and southwards away from the staircase. The wooden stairs continue above you and below you, continuing up into the heights of the cathedral tower and down into the gloom below as they probe towards the ground level.

The wooden stairs continue above you and below you, leading up into the heights of the cathedral tower and down into the gloominess of what you suspect are the cathedral's crypts.
- An Alcove - This is a small alcove which stands just west of the main cathedral entrance. Just to the east, you can see what is left of the font and spring in the cathedral. Just to the west you can see a set of spiral stairs leading up and down.
- An Old Stone Road - You find yourself on an old stone road, leading away from a large building to the north. Blocking the road directly to the north is a large stone wall with an iron wrought gate planted firmly where the road would pass through it. The building to the north appears to be an old church or cathedral.
- Burnt Alive In The Molten Lava - Need I really say more? Suffice to say, after being exposed to temperatures well in excess of three thousand degrees, there isn't a whole heck of a lot left of you, not even ash.
- Down The Bottomless Pit - You find yourself much, much further down the pit. It doesn't seem like this is going to end anytime soon. The sides of the pit are quite smooth making it obviously impossible to slow your fall.
- The Aisle Of Pews - As you move through the cathedral, you find yourself fighting your way through the numerous overturned pews here. Interspersed amongst the pews are mouldy remains of books. Dust and decay covers everything here, giving you the impression that nothing has been touched for years. The cathedral entrance is off to the south, and the altar is surely located somewhere to the north. You hear a quiet wail coming from somewhere below.
- The Antechamber - Nary a whisper can be heard as you pass into the vaulted halls of the Temple; it takes a while for you to realize that some sort of magical enchantment is in place, cast here by the clerics of old to subdue boisterous worshippers as they entered. You must admit one soon loses the desire to be noisy when one cannot hear the result! The walls are bare here, starkly white with faint traces of silvery runes, which mark two barely visible doors to the east and west. To the south lies the central worship area, while the open entrance of the temple lies to the north.
- The Cathedral Courtyard - Leaves blown about by the wind of countless centuries fill this lonely empty courtyard with their dull hollow rustle. As you look around an eerie feeling overcomes you, as if you are being watched. Just to the north, you see that the once beautiful double doors leading into the cathedral proper have been torn from their frames and left lying on the ground near the now open doorway. At the southern end of the courtyard, a large iron wrought gate can be seen, creaking in the wind. On the other side of the gate, there seems to be an older road leading away from the cathedral.
- The Cathedral Entrance - In this large open area just inside the cathedral doors, you can see the once beautiful font and the once pristine spring from which the holy waters were once drawn. All that remains now is the result of the desolation, despair, and destruction caused by whatever turned this cathedral into the ruin it is now. It seems as though everything here has been corrupted and spoiled. There are small alcoves to both the east and west. The cathedral also continues northwards towards where the altar should be. There is a large open doorway to the south, leading out to the courtyard.
- The Cloister Hall - You stand in the middle of a long stone hallway lined with wooden doors. The hallway seems to extend farther northwards than southwards, but it would almost appear as if this was once the residence of the priests, monks, and nuns who looked after the cathedral. A narrow hallway also made of stone leads westwards into the darkness.
- The Inner Crypt - You continue to wander through this inner crypt. From past experience, you know that this is often where the nobility of the realm would be laid to rest after the elaborate ceremonies took place upstairs in the cathedral proper. The only direction that the crypt leads is to the east. The floor is rather worn down in a track leading from the eastern passage to the northern wall.

From past experience, you know that this is often where the nobility of the realm would be laid to rest after the elaborate ceremonies took place upstairs in the cathedral proper. The crypt continues to the south and west here. There is also a large hole in the eastern wall, through which a fairly large amount of light shines through.

The crypt continues east and south here but a strange wind seems to be coming from the south. There is also a large stone door on the western side of the crypt.
- The Large Cavern - You are hungry. You are thirsty. This room, er, cavern is quite large as it stretches to the north and east and looks to have be carved out of the stone below the cathedral's foundations. Hundreds of thousands of bones lie about the cavern in small piles. There is a rather large pile off in the northwestern corner of the cavern. The stone of the floor has been shaped to create a ledge of sorts in the southeastern corner.
- The Tomb Of Princess Evalynn - This is the tomb in which the legendary Princess Evalynn has been entombed for years and years. Looking about this tomb, you notice the numerous candles yet burning about an ebony coffin. The room smells of flowers, roses and carnations to be precise. A slight breeze makes the candles flicker momentarily. The walls have been painted with a multitude of small paintings and designs, probably about the life of Princess Evalynn.
- The Worship Hall - This portion of the cathedral is an open area between the pews and the altar. This would have been the location where many of the worshippers took their offerings. But now only the decay of years remains. Looking around you spot what appears to be a stain on the ground and another on the wall. You also seem to hear louder wailings... or was it something else? To the east and west, you can see what appear to be confessionals. To the north there are some more pews, and to the south, you can see the destruction where numerous pews have been strew about.
