This is is a reposting of the dayfile from BATTLESTAR. It has been split in half to facilitate posting. To recover the complete dayfile, extract this file, and the other half of it, and concatenate the two into one file called dayfile.

The tunnel seems wider +. 256: This is the supply room. 0 0 252 0 0 0 0 0 Picks and shovels line the walls here, as well as hard hats, boxes of dynamite, and a cartload of very high grade gold and silver ore.** A tunnel leads off +.* 257: You have found a secret entrance to the catacombs. 0 0 0 0 216 1 252 0 I have a sickening feeling that we should not have entered the catacombs. Below is a wet, seaweed covered floor. Above is a way out. **** 258: You are in the catacombs. 0 0 260 253 0 0 0 0 Ornate tombs and piles of treasure line the walls. Long spears with many blades, fine swords and coats of mail, heaps of coins, jewelry, pottery, and golden statues are tribute of past kings and queens.** The catacombs continue - and -. 259: You are crawling on your stomach. 0 0 261 255 0 0 0 0 The passage is quite narrow and jagged, but the rock is no longer lava. It appears to be a form of granite.** The crawlspace continues -, but I would just as soon go -. 260: You are in the Sepulcher. 0 0 0 258 0 0 0 0 A single tomb is here. Encrusted with diamonds and opals, and secured with straps of a very hard, untarnished silver, this tomb must be of a great king. Vases overflowing with gold coins stand nearby. A line of verse on the wall reads, "Three he made and gave them to his daughters."**** 261: The passage is wider here. 0 0 0 259 0 0 0 0 You are at the top of a flooded shaft. About a meter below the edge, dark water rises and falls to the rhythm of the sea. A ladder goes down into water here.*** A small crawlspace goes -. 262: You are at the bottom of a ladder. 0 0 0 0 261 1 263 0 This is a narrow platform to rest on before we continue either up or down this rickety wooden ladder.**** 263: You are standing in several inches of water. 264 0 265 266 262 1 0 0 This seems to be a working mine. Many different tunnels wander off following glowing veins of precious metal. The floor is flooded here since we must be nearly at sea level. A ladder leads up. **** 264: The tunnel here is blocked by broken rocks. 0 263 0 0 0 0 0 0 The way is blocked, but if you had some dynamite, we might be able to blast our way through.* The passage goes -.** 265: The tunnel is too flooded to proceed. 0 0 0 263 0 0 0 0 Hidden shafts could swallow us if we tried to continue on down this tunnel. The flooding is already up to my waist. Large crystals overhead shimmer rainbows of reflected light.*** Let's go -. 266: The mine is less flooded here. 0 0 263 0 0 0 0 0 A meandering gold laden vein of quartz and blooming crystals of diamonds and topaz burst from the walls of the cave. A passage goes -.*** 267: You are inside the cave. 230 268 0 0 0 0 0 0 A hot steam swirls around our heads, and the walls are warm to the touch. The trail winds + and +.** 268: You are in a rather large chamber. 267 0 0 269 0 0 269 0 Beds of ferns and palm leaves make several cozy nests along the walls. In the center of the room is a throne of gold and silver which pulls out into a bed of enormous size.*** A passageway leads down to the -. 269: You are walking along the edge of a huge abyss. 0 0 268 0 268 1 270 0 Steam is rising in great clouds from the immeasurable depths. A very narrow trail winds down.** There is a tunnel +.* 270: You are on the edge of a huge abyss. 0 0 0 0 269 1 271 0 The trail winds farther down.**** 271: You are winding your way along the abyss. 0 0 0 0 270 1 272 0 The trail continues up and down.**** 272: You are on a wide shelf near the steamy abyss. 0 273 0 0 271 1 0 0 The stifling hot cave seems even hotter to me, staring down into this misty abyss. A trail winds up.* A passageway leads -.** 273: You are in a wide tunnel leading to a fuming abyss. 272 274 0 0 0 0 0 0 The passageway winds through many beautiful formations of crystals and sparkling minerals. The tunnel continues - and -.** 274: You are in a tunnel. 273 231 0 0 0 0 0 0 It is very warm in here. The smell of steam and hot rocks permeates the place. The cave continues - and -.** 275: You are at the bottom of a pit. 0 0 0 0 232 0 0 0 I can see daylight far up at the mouth of the pit. A cool draft wafts down. There doesn't seem to be any way out, and I don't remember how we came in.
