This level is set straight after your cleansing of the perverted place of
worship in pdbq_sp1 but prior to the Travail Mission. This place is even more 
thoroughly twisted to Azoth's basest purposes. You will discover what becomes 
(initially) of the undead bio-matter collected in Recurrent Rumours. Purified, 
processed, oxygenated, and finally pumped through teleporters on to who knows
where. Blood seems to drive Azoth's purpose: blood and souls, body and spirit.
Maybe this is a pivotal realm in his aweful web... 

You will be expected to do as you always do: stay alive - cleanse the structure
 - find an exit. We can't guarantee the exit in this realm will lead homeward, 
but it may help to unravel the mystery around this grisly collection. Whatever, 
the only way is forward...

Follow these:

1. EXTRACT the files to your '...quake/travail' folder, maintaining path 
   structure. The .bsp goes in your "maps" folder and the .tga files go in
   your "gfx/env" folder (you will need Travail already installed).
2. Run Quake with " -game travail +map qt_pre02" at the command line.
3. Then make console '~' command 'skill X' where X = 0,1,2,or 3
4. Then make console '~' command 'restart'
5. Play, then email me at distrans@gmail.com or post a comment on the release 
   thread at http://www.quakeone.com

This level has been run successfully in FitzQuake and GLQuake_bjp, but
I cannot guarantee that it will run successfully in any other engine.

Do not play this level in developer mode.

Blood is not transparent, lava is not transparent, slime is mostly not
transparent, almost all the water in or around any sort of man made structure
is not transparent, water in almost all rivers involving even minor human
interaction is not transparent...get it! None of the Travail levels involve
pristine mountain streams or white sanded Turkish beaches, ergo none of the
Travail levels were vised with transparent liquids. I will not speak for the
rest of the team, but I abhore the practice of re-vising levels with liquid
transparency. Please stop it...
