BACKROOM
• A hole revealing a trap door leading to a bunker (http://playmyace.livejournal.com/34590.html?thread=1035806#t1035806).

SHOP & CAFE:
• In short, it looks like somebody tried living here for a while and forgot all his stuff.
• A Christmas tree!

GALLERY OF IMAGINATION
• Inkblots. A lot of them.
• A model of a basketball four made entirely out of cereal boxes.
• A statue of a golden retriever with a pot leaf behind him. Around it, hundreds of names are carved.
• A number of things (http://playmyace.livejournal.com/34590.html?thread=1036830#t1036830) on tables, with their previous owners listed on it.

General notes: All rooms show signs of burn damage. Some water damage. There is evidence of other rooms besides those listed, but are currently not accessible.

GALLERY OF WEAPONRY
• Suits of armor, including some for horses and some unidentifiable animal. With them is an assortment of weapons. No explanations provided.
• A medieval machine gun that shoots arrow. It's too damaged to function anymore.
• Two statues; One of a cowled woman holding a lantern (God of Death) and the other of a winged teenage boy (Keats, God of Family)
• An assortment of crucified animals. Before they where on the ground, but by now they should at least be put up on a wall, or resting on a table. They're stuck a little out of the way.
• A painting of Jesus fighting Jesus. With a claymore.

"Marcus Alexander's representation of the religious rift between Accido and the rest of Fortuna. The different interpretations of Catholicism would eventually spark the Red Crusades in the mid-1300's and--" The rest is too damaged to read.

VISIONS OF WAR
Black and white photos of the following
• Photos of soldiers: a group shot near one of the buildings on the airship, two soldiers sharing a cigarette in a younger, more Roman-looking Discedo, a female soldier in a trench, and a soldier laughing with a duck on his head.
• A very impressive and massive airship. The explanation is as follows;

"The T55 airship, more commonly known as 'Fort Alta' or 'Heaven's Raider'. The first air craft to double as a military base, it is a marked achievement through Eight Coalition Accido-Discedo Alliance during the War of Western Independence."

• Another photo of the same airship crashing into a city. Above the picture is carved 'ALL ABOARD THE FAILSHIP'.

"After a five-day barrage of anti-aircraft missiles and a faulty bomb release, the aircraft crashes into Hollisland's capital, Bautzenburg, effectively ending the war."

• A map! (http://i250.photobucket.com/albums/gg259/Nonproliferation/Picture001-1.jpg) and it's explanation;

“The Siege of Dissimulo in 1896 was the most important turning point of the War of Western Independence and is considered the bloodiest battle in human history, with more combined casualties suffered than any battle before or since. The battle was marked by brutality and disregard for military and civilian casualties on both sides. The battle is taken to include the Hollish siege of the city-state of Dissimulo, the battle inside the city, and the 8th Coalition’s counter-offensive which eventually trapped and destroyed the Hollish Sixth and Seventh Armies. Total casualties for both sides are estimated to be over nine million. As a result of the battle, the Hollish suffered roughly 5 million casualties, 1/3 of their strength on the Western Front, as well as a huge amount of supplies and equipment. The Hollish forces were never able to recover from this loss and were eventually forced into a long retreat out of the West, ending the twenty year phase of Hollish Imperalism. For the Coalition, who also suffered great losses during the battle, the victory marked the start of the liberation of the West leading to eventual victory over Hollisland in 1903.”

AQUATIC BIODIVERSITY ROOM
• A massive whale model with two stubby legs protruding from the underside of its tail hangs from the ceiling. A spot on the floor marked by two footprints and labeled PHOTO SPOT marks where visitors can take a picture with the large whale model in the background, seemingly coming down to swallow them.
• Dusty displays showcasing various dried aquatic creatures are located around the edges of the room. Shark eggs, lakeweed, various kinds of fish and a... rainbow colored eel all peep out from glass cases.
• There are two small tanks in the middle of the room. Algae overcrowds most of the glass, but in the sparse few clear spaces a murky darkness with hints of overgrown lakeweed can be seen. The first tank has a plaque with an enlarged picture of a small, pink seahorse in detail. Most of the words are faded, but the line "for its vibrant pink color, they collect in schools of 50-" can be made out. The plaque on the second tank has been smashed, large cracks running all across it obliterating any words and whatever picture there might have been. Below it is written "".
• A gargantuan anchor hangs on the wall. Seriously. It's huge.

This was revealed Early Deceber, 2010 (IRL time). There should be 'please don't touch' signs in various languages around, obviously hand written. It's open to exploration, although it's likely Greece is tagging along to make sure nothing is damaged. No definite map of its layout. Those who enter will be advised of a gory scene to come.

BATHROOM
• Shower stalls, toilets, sinks, broken mirrors. Presumably useless. 'DO NOT USE' has been put on all the stalls (Greece)
• Blood splatter over the layout in general. Larger blots probably have a sign near them also. 'Please don't touch!'
• More Posters, how to wash your hands and the like

MAIN ROOM
Upon entering, there WILL be a sign that instructs people to stay INSIDE the roped area. You don't have to. Greece won't listen to it either, it's just precautionary.
• Desks, chairs, dinner table, so on so forth.
• Books! Fiction Novels.
• Games
• A television
• Three dead bodies. A 'woman' sitting at the desk, and two men on two separate couches (although one might be broken up). There's a white chalk line on the ground, indicating how one of the two men was positioned when he died.
Outside is a sign that states EXACTLY what is inside of it.

Please oh please ask permission to visit the inside of this room. Greece will very seriously prevent entrance.

STORANGE ROOM
• Gas
• Posters; sterilizing water, cleaning chemical accidents, and things of that nature. Think science lab.
•A near by stair case contains a single body. There is only a 'please do not touch' sign to go with it. It's too much trouble to get him out. Unlike the other bodies, this one has obvious signs of damage. On top of the stairs are two rooms. One is locked, the other...

TV STUDIO
This room will be recognizable from

spectavi's weather reports. Unfortunately, at no time will you find any of the news casters.
• Recording Equipment
• Desk, chairs, the like. Behind it it states 'CHANNEL 8 NEWS; DISCEDO'
• Evidence of a trash fire in the center of the room.
• Dressing rooms, including a star reading 'MOLLY'
• Broken stair cases. At the top one can see another trap door leading to the Museum. It's be left as it is.
