¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨   is nevertheless a way to bring a cave  ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨    into your building, and cave things   ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨ with it. i've found that it's easier to  ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨   think of all caves as the same large   ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨   structure, it's just that all parts    ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨    might not be physically connected.    ¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨¨
