Summary 0005519: Mini vaults for elf and lair and a possible spider rune vault
Description A few more minis to punch up the middle of the elven halls and lair. The lair drake stream mini could be expanded into a lair 8 ending vault if it seemed appropriate and if there's a need for any more.

The spider rune vault may not be fitting, it feels messy, but I wanted to give it a shot.

 I'll make sure to get to these soon. They won't be left on mantis for several months like last time.

My only comment at the moment is that you should use regular glass ('m' or 'n') over permaglass ('o'). The usual reasons apply: unless there is a need for something to be _absolutely_ indestructible, other materials are better. In this case, undiggable glass ('n') is fine.

On that subject, having glass in the spider vault looks a little weird. It's a very "natural" branch, so having pillars of glass in it looks quite out of place, to me.

I also suspect it's a bit too short for a branch ending (the vault isn't small, but the distance to the rune is tiny). Certain Swamp endings are also this way, though. I'll think about it. In any case it would make a fine floating vault with only a couple of changes.

 Thanks for the advice. The permaglass makes no sense you're right. I need to pay more attention the difference in glyphs.

I agree that glass in spider is out of place, but that was part of the point. Like the doors for the other rune vaults I thought there should be a signal that you were leaving the regular level and then I also like the tease/danger that windows give. It may still just be too weird and the wrong style for spider through. I may try and tweak it.

 I've added these. For the rune vault, I made some significant changes, but the overall design is fairly close to what you uploaded here.
