Yes, it's used for the grate which leads down into the caves. It is
horizontal. Here's its use in context:
boveGround Outside_Grate ".i se bartu le ga'avro"
with description ".i do diklo lo rajyke'a noi mitre li ze leni condi
zi'enoi se loldi loi dertu .i ri te jarpu'i lo tsali ke gasta
ga'avro noi se jicmu lo majrtsementa. to zoi gy. cement gy. toi .i
lo sudga ke flecu sefta cu clani fa'a le rajyke'a",
(which translates:
AboveGround Outside_Grate "Outside Grate"
with description
"You are in a 20-foot depression floored with bare
dirt. Set into the dirt is a strong steel grate mounted in
concrete. A dry streambed leads into the depression.",
)
I am, incidentally, in the rather protracted process of preparing a
second release of nuntalyli'u.
