You can tell, by the smell alone, that the southern door leads to a
tobacco shop. There is a wide assortment of pipes and cigars in the glass
window which you find to be quite interesting. The cloud of smoke drifting
out the door smells rather sweet, there is something strange about it that
you can't quite put your finger on.

There is a small bakery to the south which sells small cakes and other
baked goods at reasonable prices. Reasonable to the owner that is. The
smell is alluring and you have an overwhelming desire to go in and try the
pastries. The sign on the door reads " Mama Lois's Bakery. Special of the
day, Pecan Pie."
A guest is relaxing in the quarters provided them by the Master of the keep.

To the south you see the general store where miscellaneous things such as
torches and containers can be purchased. A few broken old boxes litter the
floor in front of the store waiting for the trash collection. There are
more shops to the east and west, you can also smell the scent of alcohol
rather strongly to the west.

You step in vomit and are almost knocked over by a fight breaking out
here. By the smell you guess that this is where the bar is, and sure enough
the sign to the south reads " Moe's Tavern ". As you glance over the place
you see some very attractive men and women eying you. If it tickles your
fancy, why not go in for a drink or two ?

Patrons of the castle and foreigners are crowded around the southern room
to see the new headlines and complaints in the board room to the south.
Perhaps you can push your way through the croud to see what all the
excitement is about.

People are coming from the door to the south carrying letters and
packages. Some of them appear to be pleased while others are grumbling and
muttering, they must have recieved bills or some other unwanted item. To
the east and west are merchants selling different little trinkets and greasy
food. There is a sign beside the door that proclaims this to be the post
office.

In the southern section of the room there is a barbers candystripe pole
and a few people waiting in a line. The candystripe pole is turning at a
rapid pace, making it almost hypnotic to stare at it for too long. The
patrons here look like they have been charmed by the dancing lights.

This is the western edge of the marketstrip affectionatly referred to by
the commoners as " the drag ". Lesser merchants sit along the side of the
hall setting up shop while others still further down the hall are obviously
open for business. To the south is a room lined with magical storage
lockers.

A few people wander around here with money in hand. You must be getting
close to a marketplace or something of the like. A few ladies show off some
of their new hairstyles or trinkets they've purchased. If you listen
closely you can hear the sound of merchants and shoppers haggling over
prices.

A fog rolls around your feet and up the walls, clinging to everything
with shape or texture. The feeling is eerie at best and almost makes you
want to turn back. You are still curious about where the fog is coming from
and why there would be fog inside the keep.

You have reached the source of the fog. The southern wall is emitting a
slowly rolling fog from the walls that outline the outline of a circular
passageway big enough for a single person to crawl through. There is a
keyhole in the shape of a spider above the outline of the passage.
One of the local dancers is here showing some wild dance moves.

The air becomes a little more difficult to breathe as a fog rolls in. A
chill flows through your body as the fog seems to wrap around your limbs and
tickles your skin. It is an uneasy feeling though, one that is also almost
enticing.

The castle hallway continues along here with maids and servants wandering
the halls on their spare time. Some speak of a hidden hallway somewhere
near. Their voices quiver and sound uneasy as they speak of the supposed
hidden hallway. Some of them look over their shoulders, as if they suspect
someone of following them.

A few of the castle guests walk along the hall and discuss business
matters concerning Lord Maldra. You nod politely to them as you pass, but
they pay you no real attention. You can't see anything out of the ordinary
in this room, yet it gives you a very uneasy feeling for some reason.

There are torches placed inside finely crafted sculptures of ogre sized
hands lined along the hall. It makes you feel a little uneasy, but you are
quite confident that they are only sculptures. Although when you look again
you see that some of the hands are holding large rocks - as if to throw
them!
