So I'm in Barad-dûr robbing the place when I decide to look around a bit. The following is funny, and I commend whoever coded it.

This is a large, circular assembly room that the occupants of the  Tower call the Proclamation Hall. The adamant floor slopes down to the center of the hall, allowing all in the room to see across the wide area. Large torches high on the walls provide enough light to see by, but the adamant walls do a poor job of reflecting the light. The result is somber, as if you were standing in a huge cavern that happens to have uniform dimensions. The room echoes, a result of its size and shape. At this side of the hall sits a large altar made of adamant. Although it is not evident what the Tower's inhabitants use this stone table for, you can imagine some unpleasant possibilities. Two dark arches open in the wall behind the altar, leading east and west respectively.  EXITS = southwest, west, east, southeast and south.
