   Yar.  I asked the same question and someone (who?) said to search.  I tried
   and a door opened up.  I moved in there, searched some more and found 
   myself in the treasure vault on that level!

   I don't exactly know.  I've never been killed by the eels, but both times
   I've been to a swamp I've drowned. <snif>  It seems that the characters
   (at least cave-women and wizards) cannot swim.  Maybe one of the other
   characters can???

   It doesn't even seem to be particularly good for you...

Now for a question of my own:  What is the difference between playing female
and male?  I've tried both and can't find any difference except that it says
"...choked on her food..." instead of "...his food..."
