Shangri La

This map was originally sent to me by Delain the Psionist and the Rice fields, Golden mountain and Emporer's tower were sent to me by Vanashtha. Thanks to both of you.

Shangri-la is a chump level area, you can't even get in if you're not a chump - the ancient gold wyrm guarding the gate won't let you. There is also a quest here. To find out what it is look at the dragon and you'll find out about the troubles of Shangri-la.

To get to Shangri La you must wait in the Strange Mist (Sm). After a short while the room will change and you'll be by the Gates of Shangri La (Gs). To go back to the Perfect Road in daggerdale go back in the mist and wait.

The fields in the east of Shangri-La are a little odd. The rooms marked with [] have lots of exits but only one way out. If you take any exit that the one you entered through... you'll end up in the same room! The four rooms marked Tf are connected to the ones north and south of each other. If you go north in the northern one, you end up in the southern one (and visa versa). There is a trap-door in the Temple of Shangri-La (Te) leading down to the catacombs. The Dead End (De*) that's marked contains an entrance to the Treasure of Shangri-La. I'll leave that for you to explore.

One important warning: look before you leap, as the Fiends of evil that can be found around are agressive and use powerful magic.

If you'd like to make a quick run to this zone, we recommend the following directions, starting at The Common in Shadowdale: 4s2wn4w4nw3nw.
