define-place "Gate"
	description "An old, partly moss-covered stone wall rises up in front of
	you. Set in it, a wooden gate, reinforced with rusty iron strips.
	One wing is open, permitting a view into the space beyond.
	Behind you, the dusty track leads off into the forest.

	A monk is sitting in the gate house, obviously bored."

define-place "Monastery grounds"
	description "Paths criss-cross well-kept lawns. Here and there, roses bloom
	in a flower bed. On one side stands the main monastery building
	with its calm, ancient dignity. On the other, the gardens, stables
	and agricultural outhouses speak of a simple working life."

	item "Signet ring"

define-place "Forest"
	description "Firs stretch all around you. A rabbit darts away from you as
	a wood pecker starts hammering away. In the dim light reaching
	you from above, the world looks a whole lot calmer..."

define-place "Chapel"
	description "Soft light filters in through the stained glass window,
	illuminating statues of saints and angels. The pews in this
	little chapel are empty, but behind you, the choir is practising

	his back to you."

define-place "Dormitory"
	description "The dormitory houses the monks' cells. It is a stone house
	like all the others, no frills, showing signs of age. Plain

	in their rooms, but in general it is very quiet.

	The abbot has his own suite, it lies at the back of the main dormitory."

define-place "Abbot's suite"
	description "While perhaps not quite luxurious, the abbot's suite is
	definitely more comfortable than the rooms of the common
	brothers. Rugs soften your footsteps on the floor, wall
	hangings provide decoration. The abbot himself is standing
	by the window."
