Catlia Keep: Entrance

You find yourself in a large room, just inside the gate of what appears to be a small Mountain Keep. It appears that there is a great deal of construction going on. Things are rather messy, and dwarves are running all over the place. On the opposite side of the room, a man in blue armor comes through a hallway. He sees you, nods his head in greeting, and begins to approach you. Before he is halfway across the room, a dwarf speaks to him and the armored man follows the dwarf back into the hall. Looking around, you see a large, black stone in the middle of the room, and a doorway to the right. Through the door, you can see an old man sitting on a bench, reading a book. Turning your attention to stone, you notice that there appears to be writing on it, so you decide to read the message.

Greetings, ye Wanders of the Web. I am The CyberKnight, and thou art standing in my home, known as throughout the Great Web as Catlia Keep. Only recently has construction begun on the Keep and much of it is not yet complete. However, I believe you will enjoy exploring those areas of the Keep that are open to you now. While exploring, I suggest that you be watchful for falling dwarves. Catlia Keep is but a small part of The Realms of the Great Web, a group of sites that are united to provide a unique adventuring experience to all Wanderers of the Web. If thou wish to learn more about the Realms, I suggest a visit to the Portal Room of the Keep, where you will find portals to each of the other parts of the Realms.
On the rear of this stone, thou will find the portal controls.

On the rear of the black stone, you see a series of buttons. Words are engraved into the stone above them.

These buttons appear throughout Catlia Keep, and are the main method of movement between major areas of the Keep. Each button opens a portal, and each portal leads to a different area of the Keep.

A hallway leads further into the Keep. It seems to continue onward a few feet before branching off into several paths.

Go deeper into the Keep.

To your left, you see the old man in the other room.

Go into the room.

You can also go out the gate of the Keep. You seem to recall that there is some sort of path outside that leads through the mountains to other parts of something called "The Forest of the Great Web."

Explore outside the Keep.
