You have found a curious underground structure.

My human is faint, has a fever, and is vomiting from Sepsis. >.>; Whatever I've found, it must be the end of the road.

The fun begins then.

Yeah, I found an Adamantine short sword, saw a Voracious cave crawler run by me, and now I'm trying to follow it into the deep, while trying to avoid dying. Since he's now pale.

And yes. This is very Fun. =D

Dude, this is so badass.

You have discovered an eerie cavern. The Air above the dark stone floor is alive with Vortices of purple light and dark boiling clouds. Seemingly bottomless glowing pits mark the surface."

[druid91]

Run you fool!! this is the spawning place of the elves.

I can't go any farther. If I try to sleep, he dies of infection.

If I try to go down farther he dies from:

Demons of Snow and other unspeakable shit.

Damn. I think it may just be time to start a fortress and help with most of the traveling down there.

Udda Lalgeihil had 243 kills total, in his trip through the underground. I salute him. -Salutes-

Doesn't the direction box in the upper left corner help finding the exit? Just look for the closest cave and get to levels just below ground, you'll find the way out eventually. At least I was able to do that with no problems.

EDIT: On the other hand, I wasn't going too deep, just exploring the first layer, however very extensively.

Well, I may have just genned a bastard world, but in my cavern system you couldn't just try to go up levels. You basically had to keep going and hope it was possible to go up. There wasn't always a way up unless you managed to backtrack. I just gave up hope of getting back to the surface.

What a PROPER adventuer would do is UNLOCK THE DEMONS and then see if he can outrun them, unleashing them onto the surface to change the age.

Unfortunately, I doubt they'd bother coming to the surface. Lazy bastards.

Hmmmm... there must be a way to draw them out...

I guess only fortresses can do it, and so Adventuerers are forced into ending the age of myths themselves BY ENDING THE TYRANNY OF THE IMMORTALS!

[Kamudo]

I doubt I could've unlocked them, or outrun them. I died from infection.

I'd preferably try to kill all of the magical creatures.

You have to draw a map as you progress. This will be the first thing I do as soon as I get a working computer and a copy of DF2010

[Candlejack]

What about marking the path out with something?

Wouldn't really work.  The darkness reclaims the path you have taken if you wander very far from the cave entrance tile.  Bodies rot and get moved.

Item locations wouldn't persists between save/loads.

Unless I am missing something.

[Kamudo]

Pencilinhand is right. Besides, sometimes to get deeper, you'll need to jump off a few short cliffs, so it wouldn't be possible to return back up to the surface.

I had to go down into a cave to find a dragon for my quest, I got lost and have been wandering for the last hour.  What are the chances I will ever manage to escape...

If you haven't been making a map, virtually zero. Might as well just push downward and go down in a blaze of glory/a pitiful whimper of starvation.
