10 = "The hostile environment of the cavern finally gets to you. One of you falls ill.";
11 = "In the corner of this cavern, someone built a crude tower. They piled stones and rubble in a large ring, twenty feet in diameter and forty feet high. You can't tell how old the tower is, or what miracle enabled it to remain standing.";
12 = "There is a small hole in the base of the tower. You could barely fit through it. You look through the hole, but you can't make out what's inside.";
13 = "";
14 = "You crawl into the narrow tunnel, only to find it blocked by mounds of bones and debris. Odd. It was clear last time you were in here.";
15 = "";
16 = "";
17 = "Fortunately, the tower is unoccupied. It's very strange. The tower is filled with the shed skins of chitrachs. Thousands of the insect-like creatures have come here and shed their skins. Some of them also came here to die.";
18 = "Mummified bodies and shed skins are piled waist high, wasting away and adding to the already intense stink of these caves.";
19 = "In the center of the tower, you find something interesting on a low stone slab. There are hundreds of small insects, carefully wrapped in some web-like material, laid out in rows.";
20 = "The air in this cavern is humid, stagnant and pungent. The light from the glowing fungus on the ceiling is exceptionally bright, revealing walls and floor glistening with mold and lichen. The ground is dotted with rank mounds of decomposing plants.";
21 = "The caves in the vahnatai caverns to the south were chilly, but this region is very warm. The smell of sulfur burns your nose. There must be a volcanic vent nearby.";
22 = "You can see hulking shapes moving among the uneven ground to the north. If you wish to evade them, you will have to be careful. They are red, scaly, and huge.";
23 = "In this isolated basalt tunnel, you find what looks like a small, ancient shrine. It's a bizarre, twisted structure, magically molded out of the porous black rock of the tunnel.";
24 = "";
25 = "";
26 = "";
27 = "";
28 = "As you walk inside, you start to feel almost dizzy. The shapes of the walls are having a strange effect on your brain.";
29 = "There is only one thing in the shrine. It's a statue of a huge chitrach, worked in blackened, pitted iron. It looks like it was carefully forged and polished, and then dipped in lava.";
30 = "On the floor in front of it are three offering bowls.";
31 = "";
32 = "With a few careful blows, you dent and deface the statue. Then you break the bowls. Then you try to leave. That's when your problems start.";
33 = "The tower seemed alien before. Now it's completely incomprehensible. You try to focus your eyes, but you can't make any sense of the bending, swirling walls. You try to walk to the passage out, but you end up walking in circles.";
34 = "You find your way back to the statue and bowls eventually. The bowls have reformed. The statue is repaired. However, you are no less disoriented. You keep trying to escape the tower, but you never succeed.";
35 = "When you place the third bug in the bowl, it disappears. The statue suddenly comes to life! It lurches up with a scream of tortured metal. Its eyes open, glowing alternately green and red. Its maw opens wide.";
36 = "Then it settles back down. Its eyes flash brightly at you, and then close. It becomes still again. And, after a few moments, you start to feel much stronger. The alien shrine has blessed you.";
37 = "";
38 = "You concentrate harder. Your holy power is great. You refuse to give in to some pitiful altar to bugs. With incredible force of will, you make sense of the tower and walk out. When you reach the door, you look back. Your vandalism of the altar remains.";
39 = "You look back and see the tower begin to crumble. Cracks appear all over it. The incredible power of your faith has carried you through the test.";
40 = "";
41 = "You encounter one of the demonic patrols that wander this humid cave. It is a large group of hellhounds, howling hungrily. They are held barely in check by a huge demon.";
42 = "The demon cries out at you. _You have entered the realm of Kordaddis, fools!_ It points to the massive caldera to the northeast. _He demands a payment from all who intrude here._";
43 = "_Bow down before me, and I will spare your lives. Resist, and we will slay you utterly._";
44 = "";
45 = "You encounter one of the demonic patrols that wander this humid cave. When they get close enough to see who you are, they back away. Since you defeated the haakai in the Lava Dome, the pack leader decides that perhaps you are unprofitable prey.";
46 = "";
47 = "You encounter one of the demonic patrols that wander this humid cave. It is a large group of hellhounds, howling hungrily. They are held barely in check by a huge demon.";
48 = "They seem to know that you have killed another group of the guards. They attack you immediately, crying for vengeance.";
49 = "";
50 = "It's an awful humiliation, but the patrol is just too powerful. You kneel. The demon laughs and mutters a brief spell. You see a small, glowing cloud of energy flow from you to the demon's claw.";
51 = "The creature puts the bits of your life force in a pouch. You feel drained. The demon says, _I will take your tithe to my master. You may wander these lands a short time more._ It leads the hellhounds away.";
52 = "";
53 = "You have slain one of the guard patrols of Kordaddis. Whoever that is. You hope that he doesn't hold any hard feelings.";
