Description             : A small, 5 map .wad made by a novice mapper (me). Borrows aspects of design from a few mappers (insane_gazebo, lunchlunch, and Tristan Clark to name a few), and attempts to forge it all into something halfway decent to play. I hope you all enjoy whatever the hell this is.

                                MAP LIST:
===========================================================================

==================
MAP01: "the core of sin"
==================       

Originally a standalone map, focused on a cyberdemon turret and platforming. Might make a bad first impression.

================
MAP02: "serqet's bathhouse"
================        

Probably the smallest map in the set, And used to feature the highest monster count before I made some minor changes. Thankfully it's mostly just fodder, with only a few heavies and 2 archviles at the end. Focused a lot on color coordination and lighting in this map.

=================
MAP03: "where sleeping gods lie"
=================        

This map is the one I spent the most time on. I tried to make it the most exciting and hardest map in the set, full of lava, black rock, blood, and flesh. Got a little lazy with the ending but overall it's my favorite map I made for the original set.

===================
MAP04: "echoes of grace"
===================

Originally started while my house's internet was down. Heavily inspired by insane_gazebo's "The Dreaming Garden" from Sunder, with it's flesh, concrete, and outdoorsy style look. Also was an experiment with attempting a Tyson Map, and is most definitely harder then the other maps as a result.

=================== 
MAP31: "meager thanks"
===================   

literally just a box with a poorly draw "TY!" in the floor. I mean i dunno what else to say.
