##  ROOM AND ITEM DESCRIPTIONS!

my @room_desc = <<EOF =~ m/\G(.*?)ROOM.*?NEXT/sg;
[You] are standing at the end of a [road] before a small brick [building].
Around you is a [forest]. A small [stream] flows out of the building and
down a gully to the [south].
ROOM 1 NEXT
[You] are inside a building, a well house for a large spring. The [stream]
bubbles up out of the ground and flows out the side of the building through a
pair of 1 foot diameter [sewer pipes].
The only exit is the [door] to the west.
ROOM 2 NEXT
[You] are in a valley [in the forest] beside a [stream] tumbling along a
rocky bed. The stream flows out of a small building to your [north],
and burbles down a rocky gully to the [south].
ROOM 3 NEXT
At your feet all the [water] of the stream splashes into a 2-inch slit
in the rock. [Downstream] the streambed is [bare rock].
<p> You see a small building at the crest of a hill to the [north].
ROOM 4 NEXT
[You] are in a 20-foot depression floored with bare dirt. Set into the
dirt is a strong steel [grate] mounted in concrete. A [dry streambed]
leads into the depression.
ROOM 5 NEXT
[You] have walked up a hill, still in the [forest].  The road slopes
back down the [other side] of the hill.  There is a [building] in the
distance.
ROOM 6 NEXT
[You] are in open [forest], with a deep [valley] to one side.
ROOM 7 NEXT
[You] are in open [forest] near both a [valley] and a [road].
ROOM 8 NEXT
[You] are in a small chamber beneath a 3x3 [steel grate] to the [surface].
A low crawl over cobbles leads inward to the [west].
ROOM 9 NEXT
[You] are crawling over cobbles in a low [east]-[west] passage. There
is a dim light at the [east end] of the passage.
ROOM 10 NEXT
[You] are in a debris room filled with stuff washed in from the surface.
A [low wide passage] with cobbles becomes plugged with mud and debris here,
but an awkward canyon leads [upward] and [west]. A note on the wall says:
       [Magic Word] "[XYZZY]"
ROOM 11 NEXT
[You] are in an awkward sloping [east]/[west] canyon.
ROOM 12 NEXT
[You] are in a splendid chamber thirty feet high. The walls are frozen
rivers of orange stone.  An awkward canyon and a good passage exit from
[east] and [west] sides of the chamber.
ROOM 13 NEXT
At your feet is a small pit breathing traces of white [mist]. An [east
passage] ends here except for a [small crack] leading on.
<p> [Rough stone steps] lead [down] to the pit.
ROOM 14 NEXT
[You] are at one end of a vast hall stretching forward out of sight to the
[west]. There are openings to [either] [side].  Nearby, a wide stone staircase
leads [downward]. The hall is filled with [wisps of white mist] swaying to
and fro almost as if alive. A cold wind blows up the staircase.  There is
a passage at the top of a dome behind you.
<p> [Rough stone steps] lead [up] to the dome.
ROOM 15 NEXT
[You] are on the east bank of a [fissure] slicing clear across the hall. The
[mist] is quite thick here, and the fissure is too wide to [jump]. The hall
continues to the [east].
ROOM 16 NEXT
This is a low room with only the one [exit] and a crude note on the wall.
The note says: [You won't get it up the steps.]
ROOM 17 NEXT
[You] are in the hall of the mountain king, with [passages] [off] [in] [all]
[direction][s] - [north], [east], [west], and [south]. A wide stone
staircase leads [up] the way you came.
ROOM 18 NEXT
[You] are in a low [north]-[south] passage at a hole in the floor. The hole
goes [down] to an east-west passage.
ROOM 19 NEXT
[You] are in the south side chamber. The exit is to the [north].
ROOM 20 NEXT
[You] are in the west side chamber of the [hall of the mountain king].
A passage continues to the [west].
ROOM 21 NEXT
[You] are on the west side of the [fissure] in the hall of mists.
<p>The hall continues to the [west], and a low passage exits to
the [north].
ROOM 22 NEXT
[You] are at the west end of the [hall of mists]. A low wide crawl continues
[west] and another goes [north]. To the [south] is a little passage 6 feet
off the floor.
ROOM 23 NEXT
[You] are at a crossover of a high [north]-[south] passage and a low
[east]-[west] one.
ROOM 24 NEXT
[You] are in a passageway leading [north]. There is a sign on the wall
of the passage saying <b>This way to the Cave's Main Office.</b> Just
beyond the sign, there has been a cave-in and the passageway is blocked.
The only exit is to the [south].
ROOM 25 NEXT
[You] are in a large room, with a passage to the [south], a passage to the
[west], and a wall of broken rock to the [east].
There is a large "Y2" on a rock in the room's center.
ROOM 26 NEXT
[You]'re at a low window overlooking a huge pit, which extends up out of
sight. A floor is indistinctly visible over 50 feet below. Traces of
[white mist] cover the floor of the pit, becoming thicker to the right.
Marks in the dust around the window would seem to suggest that someone
has been here recently.
<p>Directly across the pit from you and 25 feet away there is a similar
window looking into a lighted room. A [shadowy figure] can be seen there
peering back at you. <p>[Back]
ROOM 27 NEXT
[You] are in a [jumble] of rock, with [cracks] [everywhere].
ROOM 28 NEXT
[You] have crawled through a very low wide passage [parallel to] and
[north of] the hall of mists.
ROOM 29 NEXT
[You] have crawled through a very low wide passage [parallel to] and
[north of] the hall of mists.
ROOM 30 NEXT
[You] are in a dirty broken passage.  To the east is a [crawl]. To
the west is a [large passage]. [Above you] is another passage.
ROOM 31 NEXT
[You] are on the brink of a small clean climbable [pit].
A crawl leads [west].
ROOM 32 NEXT
[You] are in the bottom of a small pit with a little [stream], which
enters and exits through tiny slits. <p>[Back]
ROOM 33 NEXT
[You] are at the east end of a [very long hall] apparently without side
chambers. To the [east] a low wide crawl slants [up]. To the [north] a
round two foot hole slants [down].
ROOM 34 NEXT
[You] are at the west end of a very long featureless hall. The [hall]
joins up with a narrow [north]/[south] passage.
ROOM 35 NEXT
[You] are in a large room full of dusty rocks. There is a [big hole]
in the floor. There are cracks everywhere, and a passage leading [east].
ROOM 36 NEXT
[You] are at a complex junction. A low hands and knees passage from the
[north] joins a higher crawl from the [east] to make a [walking passage]
going west. There is also a large room [above], but there are no hand or
toe holds to climb up. <p> The air is damp here.
ROOM 37 NEXT
[You]'re in a large room carved out of sedimentary rock. The floor and
walls are littered with bits of shells imbedded in the stone. A shallow
passage proceeds [downward], and a somewhat steeper one leads [up]. A low
hands and knees passage enters from the [south].
ROOM 38 NEXT
[You] are in an arched hall. A [coral passage] once continued up and east
from here, but is now blocked by debris. The [air] smells of sea water.
<p>[Back]
ROOM 39 NEXT
[You] are in a long [sloping] corridor with ragged sharp walls.
<p>[Back]
ROOM 40 NEXT
[You] are in a long [sloping] corridor with ragged sharp walls.
<p>[Back]
ROOM 41 NEXT
[You] are in a cul-de-sac about eight feet across.
<p>[Back]
ROOM 42 NEXT
[You] are in a [maze] of [twisty] [little] [passages], [all] [alike]. []
ROOM 43 NEXT
[You] are in a [maze] of [twisty] [little] [passages], [all] [alike].
ROOM 44 NEXT
[You] are in a [maze] of [twisty] [little] [passages], [all] [alike].
ROOM 45 NEXT
[You] are in a [maze] of [twisty] [little] [passages], [all] [alike].
ROOM 46 NEXT
[You] are in a [maze] of [twisty] [little] [passages], [all] [alike].
ROOM 47 NEXT
[You] are in a [maze] of [twisty] [little] [passages], [all] [alike].
ROOM 48 NEXT
[You] are in a [maze] of [twisty] [little] [passages], [all] [alike].
ROOM 49 NEXT
[You] are in a [maze] of [twisty] [little] [passages], [all] [alike].
ROOM 50 NEXT
[You] are in a [maze] of [twisty] [little] [passages], [all] [alike].
ROOM 51 NEXT
[You] are in a [maze] of [twisty] [little] [passages], [all] [alike].
ROOM 52 NEXT
[You] are in a [maze] of [twisty] [little] [passages], [all] [alike].
ROOM 53 NEXT
[You] are in a [maze] of [twisty] [little] [passages], [all] [alike].
ROOM 54 NEXT
[You] are in a [maze] of [twisty] [little] [passages], [all] [alike].
ROOM 55 NEXT
[You] are in a [maze] of [twisty] [little] [passages], [all] [alike].
ROOM 56 NEXT
[You] are on the brink of a thirty foot pit with a massive orange column down
one wall. You could [climb down] here but you could not get back up. The
[maze] [continues] [at] [this] [level].
ROOM 57 NEXT
[You] are in the Pirate's den. It is very messy and smells awful. There is a
black Jolly Rodger flag hanging from the ceiling -- too high to reach. There
are exits leading [east], [west], [south], [north], [up] and [down].
ROOM 58 NEXT
[You] are in bedquilt, a long [east]/[west] passage with [holes] [everywhere].
To explore at random select [north], [south], [up] or [down].
ROOM 59 NEXT
[You] are in an anteroom leading to a [large passage] to the east. Small
passages go [west] and [up]. The remnants of recent digging are evident.
A sign in midair here says:<p><center>
       <h2>Cave under construction beyond this point.<br>
              Proceed at your own risk.<br></h2>
              Witt construction company<br></center>
ROOM 60 NEXT
[You] are at Witt's end. [Passages] [lead] [off] [in] [ALL] [directions].
ROOM 61 NEXT
[You] are in a large low circular chamber whose floor is an immense slab
fallen from the ceiling (slab room). [East] and [west] there once were large
passages, but they are now filled with boulders. Low small passages go
[north] and [south], and the south one quickly bends [west] around the
boulders.
ROOM 62 NEXT
[You] are in a room whose walls resemble swiss cheese. Obvious passages go
[west], [east], [northeast], and [northwest]. Part of the room is occupied
by a large bedrock [block].
ROOM 63 NEXT
[You] are in a tall [east]-[west] canyon. A [low tight crawl] goes 3 feet
north and seems to open up.
ROOM 64 NEXT
[You] are at a wide place in a very tight [north]-[south] canyon.
ROOM 65 NEXT
[You] are at the east end of the twopit room. The floor here is littered with
thin rock slabs, which make it easy to [descend] the pits. There is a [path]
here bypassing the pits to connect passages from [east] and [west]. There
are holes all over, but the only big one is on the wall directly over the
[west pit] where you can't get at it.
ROOM 66 NEXT
[You] are at the west end of the twopit room. There is a large [hole] in the
wall above the [pit] at this end of the room. <p>A [path] leads around
the pits to the east.
ROOM 67 NEXT
[You] are at the bottom of the eastern pit in the [twopit room].
ROOM 68 NEXT
[You] are at the bottom of the western pit in the [twopit room]. There
is a large [hole] in the wall about 25 feet above you.
ROOM 69 NEXT
[You] are in a long, narrow corridor stretching out of sight to the
[west]. At the [eastern end] is a hole through which you can see a
[profusion of leaves].

ITEM 106 NEXT
The [fissure] spans the entire hall. #
You peer across the fissure and can just make out the other side through the
[thick white mist].  The chasm is too wide to [jump].  You drop a small rock
over the edge into the mist and it is quite a while before you hear it hit
bottom.
