  You are down in the hole that you have dug on the beach.
  
  > Dig
  The ground is too hard to dig here.
  
  > Go up
  You are on a cosy beach. The sound of the waves add to the nice atmosphere.
  
  There is a big hole in the sand here.
  
  > Go southeast
  You are in front of the Devil Mountain, the residence of the dragon. A path leads northwest into the forest and the entrance to the Dragon den lies south.
  
  > Go south
  It would be suicide to go into the dragon den while the dragon is there.
  
  > Go west
  You are on the east bank of a large quicksand pool. You can go east into the forest.
  
  A rope is hanging from a branch above the center of the quicksand pool.
  
  > jump onto the rope
  You take a few steps back, then you run and take a big leap across the quicksand pool, where you manage to catch the dangling rope and swing the last meters across the pool and land safely on the other side.
  
  You are on the southern end of the bank of a large quicksand pool. Thick vegetation blocks your way further south. On the other side of the pool, a tree with long branches stand. One branch is projected over the quicksand pool. You can go back north along the bank.
  
  A rope is hanging from a branch above the center of the quicksand pool.
  
  > Leave
  You are standing on a wooden platform high above the ground. A doorway leads into a cottage carved out of the trunk of the large tree.
  
  There is a huge basket hanging beside the platform.
  
  > examine basket
  (the huge basket)
  The basket is huge, huge enough to enter. A string extends from the basket and stretches far up into the tree tops above the platform. You notice a hook stuck to the bottom of the basket.
  
  > examine the hook
  The metal hook is firmly attached to the bottom of the basket.
  
  > jump through the window
  You jump out of the window and land in the deep water, close to the northern bank. From here you manage to swim ashore before the crocodiles can smell you.
  
  You are north of a wide crocodile infested lake. It is hard to see anything through the mist coming up from the water. You can go north to the edge of a volcano.
  
  There is a wooden canoe lying on the lake shore.
  
  > look at the paddle
  It is a single-bladed wooden paddle.
  
  > look at the lake
  Several dangerous crocodiles swim around in the lake. The crocodiles look very hungry!
  
  > look at the mist
  It is hard to see anything through the mist.
  
  > Go north
  You are standing on the edge of a deep volcano. A small birch is standing near the edge of the volcano. You can go south back to the lake.
  
  > cut the birch
  You manage to chop the birch in a few strokes with the sharp axe. The birch falls into the volcano. No, it is stopped by something! Looking into the volcano you see that the treetop of the birch is stopped by a ledge. It should now be safe to climb down the birch to the ledge...
  
  > climb down
  You are standing on a ledge in front of a cave carved into the volcano wall. Light emanates from the cave to the south. The birch is resting on the ledge, leading up to the edge of the volcano.

  Not much can be seen through the small cave opening.
  
  > examine the birch
  The treetop of the birch is resting on the ledge.

  You are in a small cave inhabited by a small dwarf. Sparse furniture is placed appropriately around the cave. Torches mounted on the walls light up the place in a cosy manner.
  
  A dwarf stands in the middle of the cave.
  
  > examine dwarf
  The dwarf is well dressed and has a long white beard.
  
  > talk to the dwarf
  You say hello to the dwarf and he offers you a seat in his humble home. You quickly engage in a long interesting conversation. The dwarf, whose name is Toke, knows a lot about the forest and he warns you of the dangers ahead. Specifically he mentions that the Dragon Diamond is the eye of the dragon and that you need to kill the dragon in order to obtain the fabled Dragon Diamond. Toke hands you a ring while he says: "This ring will allow you to fly high but not wide. If you need to reach a high place, just wear this ring."
  
  You thank Toke and prepare to leave.
  
  > look at the torches
  A few torches light up the cave in a cosy manner.
  
  > examine the furniture
  The sparse selection of furniture adds to the cosy atmosphere of the cave.
  
  > examine the ring
  The magical ring has beautiful engravings all over.

  > Go upwards
  You are standing on the edge of a deep volcano. You can go south back to the lake.
  
  The trunk of the chopped birch can be seen sticking up over the edge of the volcano.
  
  > go south

  There is a wooden canoe lying on the lake shore.
  
  > paddle south
  You push the canoe out into the water and get in. You paddle slowly across the water trying not to catch the attention of the crocodiles. Finally you reach the opposite shore, where you drag the canoe onto land.

  > go south
  You stand in the outskirts of the Forest of Fear, beside the carriage which brought you here in the first place. An intense feeling of evil emanates from within the forest, which lies to the north.
  
  Leon's lifeless body lies sprawled on the ground.
  
  > get the body
  With big effort you manage to sling Leon's body over your shoulder.
  
  > examine Forest
  The forest is covered in a gloomy glow.
  
  > go east
  In this part of the forest the trees stand very close making it impossible to deviate from the forest trail, which curves from the west towards north.
  
  The string from the treetops is tied to a nearby tree.
  
  > Go north
  You are in front of a very tall and wide tree. High up among the branches of the tree you notice a wooden platform. A trail leads south.
  
  > wear the ring
  You put on the ring and fly up through the trees. You safely land on the platform and remove the ring again.

  > put the body into the lake

  > Paddle west
  You must name something more substantial.
  
  > Paddle north
  You push the canoe out into the water and get in. You paddle slowly across the water trying not to catch the attention of the crocodiles. Finally you reach the opposite shore, where you drag the canoe onto land.

  > look at chimney
  The chimney is round and made of stone. There is smoke coming up from the chimney.
  
  > put the twigs into the chimney
  You throw the twigs in the chimney. No more smoke is coming up from the chimney now. It seems as you are trying to smoke out the dragon! So you better get away from the Devil Mountain immediately before the dragon finds you!
