[QUOTE="Conaill, post: 2843016, member: 1264"] Based on the number of color gradations left and right of room 7, it seems like the water in 8 is quite a bit lower than in 6. So logically, the water would be flowing 6 -> 10 -> 8, with some sort of inflow in 6, and an outflow in 8 (every dragon lair needs some sort of backdoor...). Also, the water should be flowing fairly rapidly to maintain that kind of difference in height. (There may even be a little waterfall where the water from 10 dumps into the pool in 8.) If that wasn't the intention, the map (and specifically the color gradation on the right of 7) should be adjusted... Note: Room 4 and the chasm after room 2 are well below the water level in room 6. Some mechanism to flood those areas could be part of a trap. There's also various other "plumbing" option that could be exploited here. For example, blocking the outflow from #6 would make the water level there rise until it flows out into the chasm (possibly flooding 3 and 4 as well). However, rooms 10 and 8 would empty out and maybe reveal something intersting that was hidden beneath the water line. Blocking the outflow in #8 could flood most of northern half of the cave complex, possibly with air pockets remaining in 7 and 9. Just some random musing... [/QUOTE]
