-	'''Restrictions:'''	+
-	Apollo demands only your continued devotion in return for the light	+
-	that he grants you. This light will vary according to the current	+
-	favor you have with him. In order to show your devotion, you must	+
-	constantly offer (magic) items up to him for his approval. Beware that should	+
-	you fall out of favor, a request for aid will at best, fall on deaf	+
-	ears, and at worst, result in your death. Know that by your exposure	+
-	to his light, you become more susceptible to the effects of damage by	+
-	elements which would tend to counteract his light.	+
-		+
-	Magical items are what Apollo seeks from his followers. He drains their	+
-	energies, and adds them to his own. You feel somewhat refreshed.	+
-		+
-	'''Abilities:'''	+
-	Apollo grants his favor to his subjects in several different ways.	+
-	First, they may 'dazzle' an opponent, by spreading a bit of his	+
-	light within dark places. They can 'commune' with Apollo to find out	+
-	where he is located, and thus know night from day at all times. Finally,	+
-	in order to ensure continued favor with Apollo, his followers may 'offer'	+
-	items to him for his amusement. In addition, he grants his followers	+
-	protection from damage by other sources of light. His temple also	+
-	serves as a fast way to move across the continent, as only members	+
-	may use an exit from which they did not enter. Disciples also have a	+
-	communication channel, accessed with the commands 'apollonian' and 'assoc'.	+
-		+
-	A free specialty in invocation is given.	+
-		+
-	'''Syntax:'''	+
-	dazzle <target> (You must specify a target)	+
-	commune	+
-	offer <item> to Apollo (remember to capitalize Apollo)	+
-	denounce apollo (while in the temple, to leave the association)	+

Torches light this room, the holy place of Apollo, god of the sun. His devout followers come here to worship him. From time to time, he is even said to make a personal appearance. There are no walls. Instead, the room is defined by large pillars spaced closely together. A circular altar dominates the room, which smells strongly of the salty sea air. The area is brightly lit.

You can 'pray to Apollo' a few times and he will show himself.

This is Apollo, god of the sun and lord of light. He exudes a radiant beauty that outshines the light of the sun itself. He wears a toga of purest white, and a wreath of laurel leaves. A sense of inner peace radiates from him. He looks about nineteen dimins tall, five and nine tenths dimins wide and one and nine twentieths dimins long. He is in good shape and is giving off light. You find a weakness in Apollo's left foot.

If you wish to become one of the Apollonian Disciples, say 'Accept me as your disciple, great Apollo.' If afterward you wish to denounce your faith, say 'I denounce you, Apollo'.
