Description             : A 40-60 minutes level for almost vanilla setting of Heretic. Well, map itself is vanilla but it uses DECORATE to make firemace always spawn, so it's actually ZDoom thing. This level is a proof to myself that I don't suck, as my only portfolio, so to say, are not-so-good maps that I have done as a teen. Anyway, all cool people scroll down below this txt to read protips. If you don't read them, your opinion is not valid.

There are two names that are not to be pronounced. The first is "D'Sparil", the name of fear. The second one is "D'Spirali", the name so funny to Corvus, he has to choke himself out of laughter with his hairest hand among the elves. If you don't believe me, just look it up at at Dragon Claw sprites, it's real hairy, like, oh my god, is this even an elf.
So Curvosi has come to conclusion that D'Spirali must die and has infiltrated the outer defences of hideout of D'Spirali. But someone else is watching over them...

Protips for cool people:
- Use the power of freelook and disable autoaim. It's impossible to use firemace properly otherwise.
- If using OpenGL modes, then I must tell you that "Software" is the best setting for "Sector Light Mode" somewhere in OpenGL options. Simulates Software Mode light. The only reason I didn't force it is because I respect cool people.
- Killing D'Spirali kills everyone else in a map. Sadly it also means ez 100% kills.
- Tome of Power and other artifacts are there to be used, not horded. Final boss is less painful without Tomes, trust me.
- No difficulty differences and not that many secrets, am sorry.
- It starts limited in ammo, but there are a lot for firemace. So if you run out of ammo, then you are either ignoring firemace or you aren't using cool artifacts like Tome of Power.
- It's 1 hour map, so so, so save often. I don't like how it ended up so long, but at least it shows me off somewhat.
- Use that Tome of Power already, you are making me cry!

You are cool now. I love cool people.
