CRYPT - Getting Started ....

                   by Bev Truter on PC

Starting at an open gate near a path leading eastwards to the
church go E-E-E-E-N to the North Transept, where you see a marble
bust with an engraved tablet below, claiming that Sir Robert
Wallop was saved when he uttered the name of the church's patron
Saint. S-E-N-N to the Vicar's Office, where you find the Vicar
fast asleep in his chair. Wake Vicar, and he tells you a bit about
the history of St.  Hubert's. W-S-W-S to the South Transept, with
some graffiti on the wall - "A is one of 4". S-E, get FLORIN.
S-W-S-W-N-W-N - get ladder.  S-S - a strange inscription on one of
the stones reads "D is one of 6". S-E-S, get HALFCROWN.

N-W-N-N-E-S-E-S-S-E-N, and you fall into an open grave with steep
sides. Drop ladder, get skull.  U-W-N-N-N-E-N-W-N-N-E to the apse
with an altar. Drop florin and halfcrown. Get candle and matchbox
- there are 10 matches in the matchbox, and each time the candle
gets blown out down in the Crypt, you must re-light it.

S-D-N-S to a side chamber of the crypt. Get GOBLET, W, open
sarcophagus.  Enter-D-N-E to a large Roman arena, where a shaggy
lion charges at you from the eastern tunnel. Drop skull, and the
lion grabs it and disappears. E-E to a Private Chamber, get
SCEPTER (and note the spelling of sceptre!). W-W-W-W-W to the
Cicero Chamber, where a gust of wind blows out your candle. South,
light candle to reveal a colonnaded room. Someone has marked in
charcoal on the floor "O is two of 6". Get IDOL, then go N-E to
the ante-room and light the candle again. E-S-Up-Exit-E-N-N-W to
another side chamber in the crypt. Open sarcophagus then Enter -
you are in a Tomb Chamber with "L is one of 6" scrawled on a
marble wall. The stone sarcophagus lid slides back into place, and
you are trapped, the air getting stale....
