Ancient caverns

Nothing grows about the mouth of the Ancient Caverns, and an eerie groaning comes up out of it. An old man lives in a shack beside the cave. He trusts no one, and will say only that a creature in the caverns killed his child.

Deeper down, it is told, there is a city of stone that was old before the elves came to it. They hold it yet, and their chief sits meditating; but the shops stand empty, for a demon has made its lair above the city and run the town down, and old Gurand the weaponsmith says he would give anything to see it gone. The groaning is the dead King Lotus, whose spirit walks the caverns still.
