[The Spider's Web]
Rusting pipes and ducting run in a seemingly endless array of fume-spewing metal. Cooridors lead off in every direction from this circular area. At its center stands a massive boiler tub, the roaring fire beneath it fed continually by a coal-shoveling Gnome worker. You also see an etched metal sign, a wood bin, a rusting bucket, an old oil drum with some stuff on it and a polished ebony door inlaid with an ivory spider web.
Obvious exits: north, northeast, east, southeast, south, southwest, west, northwest.

[The Spider's Web, Tarantula Trot]
Black silk banners embroidered in spidersilk with silvery cobwebs hang around the burnished metal walls. A velvet-lined oval ebony table with high sides takes up the majority of the floor. Above, an intricate brass chandelier crafted from artistically twisted gears casts a dim glow over the room. You also see an intricate wrought iron archway, a copper rubbish bin, an odds board and an instruction sign.
Obvious exits: none.


The instruction sign reads:
