The Machin Shin has arrived from the south.

Was heading home from some andor pk via ways, when this ensued:

At a Vine-Carved Door
Standing in the midst of a large, heavily pitted flagstone circle is what
appears to be a massive arch with intricate vines and leaves carved upon
its surface. Almost hidden from view is a thin crack running from the
topmost part of the arch to the bottom. This arch is in stark contrast to its
surroundings, the deepest of pitch darkness attempts to consume all light.

There are some bloody traces of a trolloc leaving vvSOUTHvv
A faded tapestry of vines and leaves entwine around a slab of pale stone.
A black shadow stallion paws the ground here, fiery-red eyes shining with evil, being ridden by you.

You gaze deeply into the soul of *Waylon*.

You try to slash *Waylon*, but he parries successfully.
*Waylon* barely scythes your body.

The vinedoor closes quietly.
The winds, the screams of sweet songs, tear all along the flesh of Waylon.

You get a tinful of a black, foul liquid from a backpack.

Approaching a Vine-Carved Door
Upon this path one must be weary to stay away from the edges. The arch is
not level, sloping ever so slightly downwards on either side. This barely
perceivable slope is slight enough to make it hard to notice, yet dangerous
enough to cause the unwary to slip off the sides. A dark, multi-hued
flagstone span veers off of this path and approaches a vine-covered door.

Twisting Through the Ways
The stone blocks that make up the arches of this part of the Ways are
crumbling. Small chunks of stone and dust crunch underneath the feet of
everything that threads on it. A low banister supported by stonework columns
runs along the edge of the span.

An Island in the Ways
Pitted flagstones have been laid in a circular formation, the outer edges
of which are hidden by the foreboding darkness. In the exact center of the
circle stands a tall monolith, engraved with strange markings that only the
most fastidious could interpret. Careful exploration shows the edge
partially guarded by a low half-wall with only infinite darkness beyond.
