=== Dragon station with rooms, NPCs, and objects ===

	Now we will add the objects we have built to the zone from the
	previous chapter.  This is still not complete while it does compile and
	you can log into your zone, you still have to load your NPCs and objects
	but they do not load themselves and they are not dressed with their
	armour.  This will be taken care of in (Link to ch-07) and you
	will finally have a finished zone.  The following is the source file so
	far.

	setting with one large chair at the front.  This must be where all
