The Emerald Forest

"... older than the great cities of the First Age, but still filled with the untamed and ineffable poetry of Nature, the Emerald Forest is home to many races of the faerie folk - the playful brownies, shy dryads, rambunctious sprites and others who have kept away from the trodden paths of men to linger in the sanctuary of the sacred woods of the goddess Altariel.

Yet evil encroaches from the west, where from foetid quagmires and marsh pools creep the demonic servitors of the witch sisters of Struith Lochearn - Aude, Gertrude and Hela. More cunning than the Eye of Eodde, more deathly than the necromancer of Dol Guldur, even more foul than the ogre Groluk the Befouler, the witch sisters have pledged to bring plague and physical malaise to the Emerald Forest and any who stray too near their own domain. Be ye wary of them!"

- Brother Morwemp the Woonser, Ormil Abbey.

TECHNICALIA...

The Emerald Forest is a MUD area written by Roger Lim, Nigel Poh and Gerald Tan.
It was built using Diku (ROM 2.3) MUD codes.
It is intended for characters of all alignments between levels 15 and 50.
The creation of the area resulted from approximately:
- 2 days of initial conception
- 10 sporadic days of authoring
- 7 days of programming
- 22 days of procrastination.
It was first installed on the Diku MUD Carrion Fields in 1995.
