INTRODUCTION

So this is what happens when Santa calls you out of retirement. You had
wondered what it felt like to be subjected to Baron Justus Von Liebig's
teleportation methods.  Well, now you have experienced it first hand.  You
remember when you were very young and the wisest oldest elf was summoned.  The
mirror in the Great Christmas Hall is still cracked to this date.  Never had
such an emergency required such drastic measures.

Tonight history repeats itself.  You are now the eldest elf and have been
magically summoned out of retirement.  The burden of responsibility rests
heavily on YOUR shoulders.  Christmas has gone amuck and you must call on your
years of wisdom and the recollections of your youth to set it right.

This is Santa's Workshop.  Not many people have laid their eyes on this room.
All around you is a clutter of toys, in various stages of development and tools
of all descriptions.  To the north there is a door.  Doors also lie to the
south, east and west.  Work benches line all four walls.  Above each bench is a
peg board full of hooks.  Tools hang from the hooks.  The tops of the benches
are covered with an array of items, from scraps of building materials, the odd
nail and screw, paint brushes, cans of paint some open and some closed to
blueprints and plans of toys.  The floor is cluttered with toys.  These toys
represent just about every stage of development possible.  In fact the clutter
on the floor is so bad, that you have to kick a path in order to move about the

NOUN_DESCR 218
This is what Santa's part of Christmas is all about...TOYS!  There are so many,
that it's hard to begin to describe what you see.  The first thing you notice
is that there seems be a lot more than when you were around.  The world's
population must have doubled in the few short years of your retirement.  The
sleds and toboggans have the 'New and Improved' look.  There's not much change
in the design and style of the skates and skis, just better materials to work
with.  Now the dolls are a different story. You see your standard 'cry-and-wet'
doll, rag dolls, the so-called fashion doll and the new 'vegetable-patch' doll.
The biggest change in the dolls is the talking dolls.  Computer chips are a
miracle-come-true.  These dolls have real voices...nothing tinny about the
quality of the sound.  From the number of them here, you would guess that at
least 4 out of 5 good girls are going to find one of these little gems under
their Christmas Tree tomorrow morning.  Over in the corner you spy the electric
trains.  Santa and his 'toy architects' have left this design alone.  They look
the same and operate the same.  The next thing you oogle over are the racing
cars sets.  The cars are sleek and fast!  Not to mention the slick surface of
the track.  Too bad you have a mission.  You'd love to sit and pretend you're
A. J. Foyt.  The little ones will be pleased that Santa's elves have made up
the lastest stuffed toys.  Alf seems to be the most popular.  You really don't
have much time to look at all the toys.  You have a mission, remember?  One
last quick scan of the room, just to make sure that the usually rocking horses
and bicycles are present and accounted for.

elves used to sit around after a hard day of work and tell tales of these
caves.  All that remains of a once perfect ice crystal flower garden is a
single delicate poinsettia.  Some unknown force has destroyed all the other
flowers, leaving a scattered array of broken stems and petals in it's wake.
The lone poinsettia is encased in an orb of frost and jagged shards of ice.
