Well, I had a look at your code, and there are several errors in the exteded 
elevation stations specification.

point 152.0 1010.0 station -name k1 at pinee8 -extend left

-extend should be right, because you extend the stations to the right (k2 is on 
the right side of k1). Therion is not able to mirror scrap (currently).

point 890.0 619.0 station -name k11 at pinee8
point 890.0 619.0 station -name k11 at pinee8

I'm not sure, but station k11 should be there only once, but may be, this is 
not an error.

Main source of distortion are these lines:
point 1070.0 468.0 station -name k15 at pinee8
point 1224.0 338.0 station -name k16 at pinee8

station k15 is on the right of station k14, therefore there should be -extend 
right and station k16 is on the left of k13, therefore there should be -extend 
[left prev k13 at pinee8]. I know, in therion book this is written not very 
understandable way :( So the right code should be

point 1070.0 468.0 station -name k15 at pinee8 -extend left
point 1224.0 338.0 station -name k16 at pinee8 -extend [right prev k13 at 
pinee8]

After redefinition of anchor symbol, replacing the "point blocks" symbols on 
the floor with "wall -subtype blocks" and reparing the scrap outline, the 
extended elevation looks little bit better.

In the configuration file, there is also simple-map layout, where also 
scale-bar is redefined (it is a 50 m line in both directions). Using it, you 
should be able to align the cave on the topo-map (the coordinate grid will be 
present in some future version of therion).



Using your files, I have found some another serious bugs in therion, I'll try 
to repair them as soon as possible. I have attached the files I have modified.
