Corwin's Cabin

The smell of salt air and gentle rocking of 
the deck tell you that you have boarded a ship.  
You see navigation charts, maritime instruments, 
and books of naval history and adventure all around the room. 
Standing in this room makes you yearn for 
command of your own ship and the grand adventures to be had.
An antique Oak desk covered with charts 
and manuscripts faces the door you just entered.
Numerous wooden stools are available for visitors to this cabin.
The sounds of lines being pulled taught, sails raised, 
hatches opened and closed, and a myriad of other sounds 
surround you.  
It is as if a ship were being prepared to sail....
Corwin is standing here.
You see Compass Box, Map Case, a bulletin board, 
and Ghost Ship here.
Obvious exits: ashore to STS Sub-River 
Tunnel and east to The Mariner's
Cathedral Five bells.
Q.S. Serafijn is here.

The first thing you notice is the coffee cup. 
It is held like a  talisman in the hand of this 
young gentlemen with brown hair and green eyes 
that some have called dreamy.  
He is dressed casually, but respectably.  
A confirmed bachelor, with a bachelors late night habits and haunts, 
he thinks the MOO is one of the best things to  
it the planet since the idea of running water was invented.  
As you finish your inspection, 
you notice that the coffee cup has a peculiar 
tendency to turn into a martini glass at random intervals. 
He is wearing pirate garb. He is listening to Marillion.

east
You feel a sorrow pull upon your heart as 
you solemly approach...
The Mariner's Cathedral
You find yourself in a large stone room 
with high pillars that are shaped
like ship's masts.  The gentle sound of surf surrounds you, 
combining with the requiems being played by 
the large coral organ at the front of the room.  
As you walk around, you see that there are a number 
of alcoves to either side of the hall. Each one shows a 
scene of sailors battling the sea, and losing. 
These alcoves are memorials to the sailors 
who have gone out, but not returned
Obvious exits:

kneeling before the altar here.

and as the sound of sea
