This would actually be quite easy but not axactly what you are thinking. What you do is create an area that can only be entered one way (or a few) that aren't "normal" entrances. It is similar to the train stuff and the portal spell combined. Define a new object type that has values of the rooms to transport character the new world. You can edit the exit or whatever (see the portal spell) for movement and you can edit do_look to say do something like. > look ruby The ruby is extremely red but somewhat translucent.... You can see what appeara to be.. (room desc here.) Hope this gives you some ideas. Christopher M.
