ClubFloyd Transcript: The idea behind ClubFloyd is that each week at a pre-arranged time, a group of people meet online to cooperatively play a game of interactive fiction. Below is a transcript of Degeneracy, written by Leonard Richardson. Degeneracy was originally released in 2001 and was nominated for a Xyzzy Award for Best Puzzles. You can learn more about the game, including how to download it, by visiting the ifWiki.WARNING! Below you will find a transcript of people playing this game, and it goes without saying that the transcript is full of spoilers. So, if you've never played this game, and think you might like to at some point, I do not recommend reading any further. Instead, you might want to return to the interactive fiction page. |

Floyd | Floyd | Reception Chamber Floyd | The glitterings of Gold, Jewels, Tapestries, &c. belie the Corruption Floyd | of he who 'til recently occupied this high Seat. A white Carpet, once Floyd | flanked by Sycophants & Counsellors, now lies untravelled. It leads Floyd | away from the Seat & towards the Sunrise. Floyd | Floyd | The cruel Baron lies at your feet, dyeing the carpet scarlet with his Floyd | blood. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
DavidW says (to Floyd), "x baron" | ||||
Floyd | His eyes are wide & unseeing. He wears only his velvet Robe of state, Floyd | his face bearing a resigned Expression. Floyd | Floyd | You hear a terrible crashing sound to the east. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "eep" | |||
Jacqueline asks, "Do we have a sword or something? Did we do this?" | ||||
Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "i" | ||||
Floyd | You are carrying: Floyd | a sacred blade Floyd | a holy symbol (glowing with a sacred light & being worn) Floyd | a suit of Chain-Mail (being worn) Floyd | a leather sheath (being worn) Floyd | a wooden Scroll-Case (being worn & closed) Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "Probably a yes." | |||
Jacqueline asks, "Should we worry about that crash? And does this game need a driver?" | ||||
Gunther says, "boy does it ever" | ||||
inky says, "there is a timer but don't worry about it too much" | ||||
Johnny says, "According to the narrator, dude had it coming." | ||||
DavidW says, "I don't want to drive." | ||||
Jacqueline says, "I'm not keen on it unless we have no other volunteers." | ||||
Gunther says, "it's because "Mr. Bean never speaks so there's nothing to translate"" | ||||
Gunther says, "ilac" | ||||
Jacqueline says, "heh" | ||||
Jacqueline says, "I'm... not hearing any volunteers." | ||||
DavidW says, "I'm feeling a bit ill and may need to leave the computer." | ||||
Jacqueline asks, "East? Or look at the stuff in our inventory?" | ||||
inky says, "well, I'm going to doof around for a bit" | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "open case" | ||||
Floyd | You open the wooden Scroll-Case, revealing a vellum Scroll. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "read scroll" | ||||
Floyd | The Scroll is made of rich vellum & is rolled up, inside the Floyd | Scroll-Case. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "get scroll then read it" | ||||
Floyd | You remove the Scroll from its Case. Floyd | The rich vellum is covered with a flowing hand. Floyd | Floyd | <<The bearer of this Notice, one Knight Itinerant, being granted Floyd | special Dispensation & ordered by Divine Covenant to separate from Floyd | this World the immortal Soul of par Tiller, Baron of Stesan, his Floyd | Crimes and Sins having blotted his Name beyond hope of Redemption or Floyd | Reform, & it being ordered that any & all requested Assistance be Floyd | rendered this Knight in this sacred Quest, let it be known that to Floyd | this I set my Stamp & Seal on this day & for Perpetuity, in the name Floyd | of the most holy God, who has ordained it so,>> Floyd | Floyd | The stamp & signature is that of the Bishop of Dol Nesta. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says (to DW), "That's too bad, since you were wanting us to play this. I hope you get to feeling better." | |||
Gerynar says (to Floyd), "x me" | ||||
Floyd | You are a strapping Knight, secure in your faith & glowing with the Floyd | chaste Excitement of a task accomplished. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "put blade in sheath" | ||||
Floyd | You sheathe your Blade. Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW says, "I mostly want to watch anyway, since this game confused the h--- out of me." | |||
Jacqueline says, "So, we did it, our job. Now I suspect we'll have to get out of here." | ||||
inky says, "I forgot the game had this writing style" | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "e" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | Wait Chamber Floyd | A richly attired Wait Chamber, its walls covered in pagan Frescoes Floyd | which beckon you to impure thoughts. Chairs arranged near the circular Floyd | perimeter mingle with Tables for gaming. The chamber becomes the Floyd | Reception Chamber to the west, the Dining Hall to the north. A small Floyd | tiled archway leads southwest & to the east is the grand Entry Hall. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), " x fresco" | ||||
Floyd | You can see no such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "x fresco" | ||||
Floyd | You can see no such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "x frescoes" | ||||
Floyd | You shield your Eyes from the lewd & ribald Frescoes. Under the guise Floyd | of Art they depict pagan & unrighteous Scenes--that is all that shall Floyd | be said of them. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "goodness" | |||
Jacqueline says, "How unseemly." | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "e" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | Entrance Hall Floyd | In this grand Hall do Heraldry & great Pomp greet the visitor to this Floyd | Keep. Yet a visitor, betrayed, can quickly become a prisoner--a metal Floyd | Portcullis to the east now separates you from the threshold. You must Floyd | take your leave instead to the round Chamber that lies westward, or Floyd | else attend one of the two archways to the north & south. Floyd | Floyd | A wooden Wheel is mounted on the wall, near the Portcullis. Floyd | Floyd | > | Gunther says, "I had forgotten how awesome the prose is now" | |||
inky says (to Floyd), "turn wheel" | ||||
Floyd | A strange tingling comes over you as you reach for the Wheel. When you Floyd | withdraw, your Arm is numbed. You try again, and feel sensation give Floyd | way to Pain, mild and then unbearable. It seems you cannot turn the Floyd | Wheel. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "x wheel" | ||||
Floyd | A heavy wooden wheel, which raises and lowers the Portcullis. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "x pomp" | ||||
Floyd | You can see no such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW says, "Perhaps the Portcullis did the Crash to yon East." | |||
Jacqueline says, "One sec - going to throw on a different shirt. Will recap when I return." | ||||
olethros asks, "why are some, but not all, nouns capitalised?" | ||||
Gerynar asks, "it's a secret code?" | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "n" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | Armoury Floyd | An Armoury, stocked by the Baron for a siege but unable to protect him Floyd | from the vengeance of the Almighty. Amidst the Armour, Weaponry &c. Floyd | stands an archway to the south. Floyd | Floyd | A wooden Lance stands here, propped against a wall. Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW says (to olethros), "I think this game takes place before the capitalization reform of 1823." | |||
olethros says (to Floyd), "x lance" | ||||
Floyd | Intended not for warfare but for the Baron's extravagant games, the Floyd | wooden Lance sits unused against a wall of the Armoury. It is of Floyd | nearly constant width along its length, giving it the look of a common Floyd | pole. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "get it" | ||||
Floyd | To hold that you must have both hands free. Floyd | Floyd | > | olethros says, "hm" | |||
olethros says (to Floyd), "i" | ||||
Floyd | You are carrying: Floyd | a vellum Scroll Floyd | a holy symbol (glowing with a sacred light & being worn) Floyd | a suit of Chain-Mail (being worn) Floyd | a leather sheath (being worn) Floyd | a sacred blade Floyd | a wooden Scroll-Case (being worn & open but empty) Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "sheath blade" | ||||
Floyd | It is already sheathed. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "put scroll in scroll-case" | ||||
Floyd | You roll up the Scroll and slide it into the Case. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Gerynar says (to Floyd), "close case" | ||||
Floyd | You close the wooden Scroll-Case. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "get lance" | ||||
Floyd | Taken. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "s" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | Entrance Hall Floyd | Floyd | A wooden Wheel is mounted on the wall, near the Portcullis. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "turn wheel with lance" | ||||
Floyd | I only understood you as far as wanting to turn the large Wheel. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "vault" | ||||
Floyd | I do not recognise that verb. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "jump over wall with pole" | ||||
Floyd | You can see no such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | olethros says, "there is a portcullis" | |||
olethros says, "we have to raise it" | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "x portcullis" | ||||
Floyd | A heavy iron portcullis blocks your way. No doubt its sudden closing Floyd | was the cause of the crashing sound you heard earlier. Sun shines Floyd | through the grate. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Gerynar says (to Floyd), "lift portcullis" | ||||
Floyd | Your strength is as great as your faith, but try as you might, you Floyd | cannot lift the heavy portcullis. Perhaps the nearby Wheel holds the Floyd | answer. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "lift portcullis with lance" | ||||
Floyd | I only understood you as far as wanting to lift the heavy portcullis. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "s" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | Study Floyd | If only the Baron had set his soul in the same order in which he kept Floyd | his Study! Had he lined his heart with good Works the way he lined his Floyd | walls with Books, kept his spiritual affairs as tidy as he kept his Floyd | Writing-Desk, then your grim task need never have been assigned you. Floyd | But the leather Arm-Chair now awaits a master who will never again Floyd | occupy it. A solid oak door blocks your way to the west & an archway Floyd | leads north. Floyd | Floyd | The orderly appointment of the Books on their several Shelves is Floyd | marred in one place by a Gap. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "x desk" | ||||
Floyd | The Writing-Desk is of dark wood. Its flap is closed. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "open flap" | ||||
Floyd | You open the flap of the Writing-Desk, revealing a small but deep Hole Floyd | in the south wall. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "look in hole" | ||||
Floyd | You find nothing of interest. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "reach in hole" | ||||
Floyd | I do not recognise that verb. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "s" | ||||
Floyd | Methinks you see exits where there are none. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "put pole in hole" | ||||
Floyd | Inserting the lance into the hole as far as you can, you feel the wood Floyd | catch & hear the faraway grinding of stone. Removing the lance, you Floyd | find it unchanged. Floyd | Floyd | > | olethros says, "hooray" | |||
olethros says (to Floyd), "n" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | Entrance Hall Floyd | Floyd | A wooden Wheel is mounted on the wall, near the Portcullis. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "x portcullis" | ||||
Floyd | A heavy iron portcullis blocks your way. Sun shines through the grate. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||

Floyd | Floyd | Study Floyd | Floyd | The orderly appointment of the Books on their several Shelves is Floyd | marred in one place by a Gap. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "w" | ||||
Floyd | You cannot, since the oaken Door to the west is in the way. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "opend oor" | ||||
Floyd | I do not recognise that verb. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "open door" | ||||
Floyd | It seems to be locked. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "joust door" | ||||
Floyd | I do not recognise that verb. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline asks, "Wait, so what did that pole poking do?" | |||
olethros says, "not sure" | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "n" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | Entrance Hall Floyd | Floyd | A wooden Wheel is mounted on the wall, near the Portcullis. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "turn wheel" | ||||
Floyd | A strange tingling comes over you as you reach for the Wheel. When you Floyd | withdraw, your Arm is numbed. You try again, and feel sensation give Floyd | way to Pain, mild and then unbearable. It seems you cannot turn the Floyd | Wheel. Floyd | Floyd | > | Gerynar asks, "perhaps unlocked the wheel?" | |||
inky says, "looked awesome" | ||||
olethros says, "still can't" | ||||
olethros says (to inky), "ha ha" | ||||
Jacqueline says, "Interesting use of capitalization." | ||||
olethros says, "IMPURE THOUGHTS rise in your brain" | ||||
Atrilla asks, "Is there more rooms to the west?" | ||||
Gerynar says, "yes" | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "w" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | Wait Chamber Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "l" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | Wait Chamber Floyd | A richly attired Wait Chamber, its walls covered in pagan Frescoes Floyd | which beckon you to impure thoughts. Chairs arranged near the circular Floyd | perimeter mingle with Tables for gaming. The chamber becomes the Floyd | Reception Chamber to the west, the Dining Hall to the north. A small Floyd | tiled archway leads southwest & to the east is the grand Entry Hall. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "sw" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | Chapel Floyd | O foul Hypocrite! O whited Sepulchure! In the midst of his debauchery Floyd | the Baron does see fit to erect himself a Chapel of the faith! Mayhap Floyd | he thought to take sanctuary here at your approach. 'Tis more likely Floyd | the lighted Candles & marble Altar did bear witness to blasphemous & Floyd | terrible Rites in the Baron's lifetime. Floyd | Floyd | A stair in the corner leads down into darkness, an archway northeast. Floyd | A solid oaken Door prevents your going east. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "x altar" | ||||
Floyd | (the marble Altar) Floyd | The Altar is smooth & sweet-smelling, but you see it stained with Floyd | Blood. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "x door" | ||||
Floyd | The door is made of fine oak, with a copper lock. It stands Floyd | forebodingly closed. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "x candles" | ||||
Floyd | The Candles are old & sit guiltily in pools of their own Wax, Floyd | flickering under your gaze. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
olethros says (to Floyd), "open it" | ||||
Floyd | It seems to be locked. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "get candle" | ||||
Floyd | That would compound Blasphemy upon Blasphemy. Floyd | Floyd | > | Atrilla says, "Try praying since we're knights." | |||
Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "pray" | ||||
Floyd | Kneeling, you offer up a brief Prayer. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "I suspect that is the only result we will see." | |||
Atrilla says (to Jacq), "Yeah." | ||||
Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "x lock" | ||||
Floyd | A copper Lock set into the oaken Door. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline asks, "Is there a reason for Lock and Door being ... is this guy German?" | |||
Atrilla says, "That must lead to the study." | ||||
Gunther says, "that's how old english worked" | ||||
Atrilla says (to Floyd), "l in lock" | ||||
Floyd | You find nothing of interest. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "Oh - ah. Makes sense." | |||
olethros says, "still not sure why some nouns are not capitalised" | ||||
Atrilla asks, "Hint?" | ||||
Atrilla asks, "Hints, even?" | ||||
Atrilla says, "Sort of odd, tho." | ||||
Atrilla says (to Floyd), "l" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | Chapel Floyd | O foul Hypocrite! O whited Sepulchure! In the midst of his debauchery Floyd | the Baron does see fit to erect himself a Chapel of the faith! Mayhap Floyd | he thought to take sanctuary here at your approach. 'Tis more likely Floyd | the lighted Candles & marble Altar did bear witness to blasphemous & Floyd | terrible Rites in the Baron's lifetime. Floyd | Floyd | A stair in the corner leads down into darkness, an archway northeast. Floyd | A solid oaken Door prevents your going east. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
jenrexrode says, "i" | Jacqueline says, "Nah, we tend not to go for hints until things get pretty desperate and we're all in agreement." | |||
DavidW asks, "There might've been a key on the Baron; we never searched him, did we?" | ||||
inky says, "that is true" | ||||
jenrexrode says (to Floyd), "i" | ||||
Floyd | You are carrying: Floyd | a wooden Lance Floyd | a holy symbol (glowing with a sacred light & being worn) Floyd | a suit of Chain-Mail (being worn) Floyd | a leather sheath (being worn) Floyd | a sacred blade Floyd | a wooden Scroll-Case (being worn & closed) Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "d" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | Priest's Quarters Floyd | In contrast to the Baron's opulence lurks here the spartan Cell of his Floyd | corrupt Priest. The only furnishing is a straw Mat, the only Floyd | concession to luxury a Tapestry which hangs near the upward-climbing Floyd | Stair. Floyd | Floyd | The Priest sits on his mat, eyes downturned in submission. Floyd | Floyd | <<So,>> says the Priest, devoid of Emotion. <<You have come.>> Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Jacqueline says (to Floyd), "ODYSSEUS" | ||||
Floyd | I do not recognise that verb. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "Oops - timing." | |||
inky says (to Floyd), "x priest" | ||||
Floyd | You can sense the fear in his eyes, though your code prevents you from Floyd | harming him. Fear of the Justice you represent, of the Judgement that Floyd | will be passed upon him for the evils he did not act to prevent. Floyd | Floyd | The priest speaks again. <<The others have left. I remained.>> Perhaps Floyd | he thinks this will earn him Clemency? Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "x tapestry" | ||||
Floyd | The Tapestry depicts an allegorical Scene from the Scriptures of the Floyd | true Faith. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "look behind tapestry" | ||||
Floyd | You find nothing of interest. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "ask priest about priest" | ||||
Floyd | The Priest avoids your Gaze and does not respond. Floyd | Floyd | > | Atrilla says, "No, I ment as the capitulization could hint something. Long streach." | |||
Gerynar says (to Floyd), "ask priest about baron" | ||||
Floyd | <<I can tell you nothing you do not already know.>> Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Atrilla says (to Floyd), "ask about chapel" | ||||
Floyd | You can see no such thing. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "get tapestry" | ||||
Floyd | The tapestry is hardly portable. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "Ah." | |||
inky says (to Floyd), "ask priest about tapestry" | ||||
Floyd | <<Surely you know of its significance.>> Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
jenrexrode says (to Floyd), "ask priest about wheel" | ||||
Floyd | The Priest avoids your Gaze and does not respond. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "x mat" | ||||
Floyd | A straw Mat upon which the Priest meditates and sleeps. Now he kneels Floyd | on it in deference to you. Awaiting his Fate. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
inky says (to Floyd), "look under mat" | ||||
Floyd | The Priest occupies the mat. Floyd | Floyd | > | Atrilla asks, "This is in Inform?" | |||
DavidW says, "Inform 5 or 6. I forget which." | ||||
Lionheart arrives, full of fun and funk. | ||||

Gerynar says (to Floyd), "search priest" | ||||

Floyd | Floyd | There's a specific subset of people who liked "Guess The Verb!" who Floyd | will also like this game, but for the most part I think the two games Floyd | appeal to disjoint audiences. Whatever the case, I hope you find Floyd | "Degeneracy" novel and interesting. Floyd | Floyd | Note: as with all my games, I recommend you play Degeneracy with Floyd | VERBOSE descriptions on. However, after having been lectured during Floyd | the beta test of "Guess The Verb!" about messing with the VERBOSE Floyd | default, I have decided to leave this decision in the hands of you, Floyd | the player. Floyd | Floyd | > | Lionheart says, "Perhaps an error message about a missing verb handler would be less cruel to the player" | |||
jenrexrode says (to Floyd), "search bag of flour" | ||||
Floyd | I only understood you as far as wanting to search the sack of Flour. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "Hrm, yeah." | |||
jenrexrode says (to Floyd), "search sack" | ||||
Floyd | There is nothing there but the Flour. Floyd | Floyd | > | Jacqueline says, "He kind of alludes to it, though I had to reread his commentary a couple of times." | |||

Atrilla says (to Floyd), "x symbol" | ||||
Floyd | (the holy symbol) Floyd | A perfect Circle, symbolizing the creation: Heaven above, Earth here & Floyd | now, the pits below. The unbroken continuity of God, of which Man Floyd | partakes.

Atrilla says (to Floyd), "x fool" | ||||
Floyd | The Baron's Fool has taken to the cups. His Master no longer requires Floyd | his gambols & rapier Wit. He sprawls beneath a large Wine-Barrel, Floyd | clutching a Tankard from which he sips.

Floyd | Floyd | Slaughter Yard Floyd | In this small, walled Yard were Beasts put to the knife & prepared for Floyd | the master's feasting table. Unthinkably--but undoubtedly--were other Floyd | Prey too destroyed here, to feed the Baron's appetite for sin. There Floyd | is no hiding place in this small Arena; meat, alive or dead, can Floyd | escape only south, through the Kitchen. Floyd | Floyd | A bloated Pig lies here, its Stomach slit.

Floyd | You search the Priest, who divulges a small silver Key. <<The Box!>> Floyd | cries the desperate Priest, placing the Key forlornly on the ground.

Floyd | Floyd | Dining Hall Floyd | On feast days in years & months past, Lords & favored Thinkers entered Floyd | this long Hall from the south, to be served by huge platters of exotic Floyd | repast from the Kitchen to the west. But now the room stands bare, Floyd | stripped of its Appointments by some fleeing servant. Only the larger Floyd | items remain--the long Table & the ornate Chairs. Floyd | Floyd | On the long Table is a Perpetuum Mobile. Floyd | Floyd | Wait Chamber Floyd | A richly attired Wait Chamber, walls covered with pagan frescoes which Floyd | beckon you to unpure thoughts. Chairs arranged near the circular Floyd | perimeter mingle with tables for gaming. The chamber becomes the Floyd | reception chamber to the west, the dining hall to the north. A small Floyd | tiled archway leads southwest, & to the east is the grand Entry Hall. Floyd | Floyd | Entrance Hall Floyd | In this grand Hall do heraldry & great pomp greet the visitor to this Floyd | castle. Yet a visitor, betrayed, can quickly become a prisoner--a Floyd | metal portcullis to the east now separates you from the castle Floyd | threshold. You must take your leave instead to the round Chamber that Floyd | lies westward, or else attend one of the two archways to the north & Floyd | south. Floyd | Floyd | A wooden Wheel is mounted on the wall, near the Portcullis. Floyd | Floyd | Study Floyd | If only the Baron had set his soul in the same order he kept his Floyd | study! Had he lined his heart with good works the way he lined his Floyd | walls with books, kept his spiritual affairs as tidy as he kept his Floyd | Writing-Desk, then your grim task need never have been assigned you. Floyd | But the leather Arm-Chair now awaits a master who will never again Floyd | occupy it. A solid oak door blocks your way to the west & an archway Floyd | leads north. Floyd | Floyd | Has this Place changed since last you were here? The work of some Floyd | mischevious Spirit, or deceiving Daemon? It is but a slight tugging in Floyd | your Marrow, yet a worrisome one. Floyd | Floyd | The orderly appointment of the Books on their several Shelves is Floyd | marred in one place by a Gap.

A small Floyd | tiled archway leads southwest & to the east is the grand Entry Hall. Floyd | Floyd | You hear a terrible crashing sound to the east. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Lionheart says (to Floyd), "e" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | Entrance Hall Floyd | In this grand Hall do Heraldry & great Pomp greet the visitor to this Floyd | Keep. Yet a visitor, betrayed, can quickly become a prisoner--a metal Floyd | Portcullis to the east now separates you from the threshold. You must Floyd | take your leave instead to the round Chamber that lies westward, or Floyd | else attend one of the two archways to the north & south. Floyd | Floyd | A wooden Wheel is mounted on the wall, near the Portcullis. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Lionheart says (to Floyd), "n" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | Armoury Floyd | An Armoury, stocked by the Baron for a siege but unable to protect him Floyd | from the vengeance of the Almighty. Amidst the Armour, Weaponry &c. Floyd | stands an archway to the south. Floyd | Floyd | A wooden Lance stands here, propped against a wall. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||

Floyd | Floyd | Study Floyd | If only the Baron had set his soul in the same order in which he kept Floyd | his Study! Had he lined his heart with good Works the way he lined his Floyd | walls with Books, kept his spiritual affairs as tidy as he kept his Floyd | Writing-Desk, then your grim task need never have been assigned you. Floyd | But the leather Arm-Chair now awaits a master who will never again Floyd | occupy it. A solid oak door blocks your way to the west & an archway Floyd | leads north. Floyd | Floyd | The orderly appointment of the Books on their several Shelves is Floyd | marred in one place by a Gap. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Lionheart says (to Floyd), "open desk" | ||||
Floyd | You open the flap of the Writing-Desk, revealing a small but deep Hole Floyd | in the south wall. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Lionheart says (to Floyd), "thrust lance into hole" | ||||
Floyd | I do not recognise that verb. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Lionheart says (to Floyd), "put lance in hole" | ||||

Floyd | Floyd | Dining Hall Floyd | On feast days in years & months past, Lords & favoured Thinkers Floyd | entered this long Hall from the south, to be served by huge platters Floyd | of exotic repast from the Kitchen to the west. But now the room stands Floyd | bare, stripped of its Appointments by some fleeing servant. Only the Floyd | larger items remain--the long Table & the ornate Chairs. Floyd | Floyd | On the long Table is a Perpetuum Mobile (which acts as a Water-Fall). Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Lionheart says (to Floyd), "w" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | Kitchen Floyd | Gluttonous indeed were the the Feasts prepared in this Kitchen while Floyd | the Baron lived. The huge Ovens now stand cold & unlit, the Crockery Floyd | smashed & strewn about the floor. The Dining Hall is to the east, & Floyd | northwards is a small enclosed Yard. A Stair leads downward into Floyd | darkness. Floyd | Floyd | The Baron's Fool lies besotted beneath a large Wine-Barrel. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Lionheart says (to Floyd), "n" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | Slaughter Yard Floyd | In this small, walled Yard were Beasts put to the knife & prepared for Floyd | the master's feasting table. Unthinkably--but undoubtedly--were other Floyd | Prey too destroyed here, to feed the Baron's appetite for sin. There Floyd | is no hiding place in this small Arena; meat, alive or dead, can Floyd | escape only south, through the Kitchen. Floyd | Floyd | A bloated Pig lies here, its Stomach slit. Floyd | Floyd | The stump of an ancient Oak stands here. The steel blade of an Axe Floyd | calls it home. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Lionheart says (to Floyd), "get axe" | ||||

Floyd | Floyd | Store Room Floyd | The gloomy Store Room has been recently sacked, though racks of Ham & Floyd | strings of dried Fruit still hang above your head. A bag of Flour has Floyd | been ripped open, its contents scattered. Hundreds of white Floyd | Foot-Prints run frantic around the room & up the Stair. Floyd | Floyd | A dented Box lies in a corner, seemingly kicked there by a thwarted Floyd | Robber. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||

Floyd | Floyd | Dining Hall Floyd | Floyd | On the long Table is a Perpetuum Mobile (which acts as a Water-Fall). Floyd | Floyd | Wait Chamber Floyd | Floyd | Chapel Floyd | O foul Hypocrite! O whited Sepulchure! In the midst of his debauchery Floyd | the Baron does see fit to erect himself a Chapel of the faith! Mayhap Floyd | he thought to take sanctuary here at your approach. 'Tis more likely Floyd | the lighted Candles & marble Altar did bear witness to blasphemous & Floyd | terrible Rites in the Baron's lifetime. Floyd | Floyd | A stair in the corner leads down into darkness, an archway northeast. Floyd | A solid oaken Door prevents your passage east. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Lionheart says (to Floyd), "chop door with axe" | ||||
Floyd | You hack at the door with your Axe. Tho' sturdily built, it cannot Floyd | stand under your strength. Slowly, the splinters of Wood give way to Floyd | cracking Slabs, and with a final series of Blows you are afforded Floyd | entry. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Lionheart says (to Floyd), "d" | ||||
Floyd | Floyd | Priest's Quarters Floyd | In contrast to the Baron's opulence lurks here the spartan Cell of his Floyd | corrupt Priest. The only furnishing is a straw Mat, the only Floyd | concession to luxury a Tapestry which hangs near the upward-climbing Floyd | Stair. Floyd | Floyd | The Priest sits on his mat, eyes downturned in submission. Floyd | Floyd | <<So,>> says the Priest, devoid of Emotion. <<You have come.>> Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Lionheart says (to Floyd), "show box to priest" | ||||
Floyd | The Priest treats your act as an accusation, and quails. <<The box? It Floyd | contains naught but Spices! Here, I have the key...>> Reaching into Floyd | his Robes, he withdraws a small silver Key, which he hurriedly places Floyd | before you. Floyd | Floyd | The priest speaks again. <<The others have left. I remained.>> Perhaps Floyd | he thinks this will earn him Clemency? Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||

Floyd | Floyd | Alchymyst's Laboratory Floyd | It is stifling hot in here, yet the flickering yellow glow of the Floyd | small Furnace does little to light this room.

Floyd | Floyd | On the Work-Bench is a Book of evil Magic. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Lionheart says (to Floyd), "x furnace" | ||||
Floyd | The Furnace is your equal in height, and its Insides glow yellow with Floyd | concealed heat. It was no doubt used by the Baron to prepare scraps of Floyd | the base Metals for their transmutation. Material placed in a vent Floyd | soon runs molten into a stone collecting pan.

Lionheart says (to Floyd), "bench" | ||||
Floyd | I do not recognise that verb. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||
Lionheart says (to Floyd), "x bench" | ||||
Floyd | The Baron's Work-Bench reeks of evil. The Crucibles & other Floyd | Appointments have been used for tasks far darker & less wise than mere Floyd | Alchymy. Floyd | Floyd | Among the dark clutter of the Work-Bench is a Book of evil Magic. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||||

Lionheart says (to Floyd), "x book" | ||||
Floyd | The book is one of foul & evil Magic, by an unknown Author. Its open Floyd | Page is covered with Notes in the Baron's Hand. Tho it burns your eyes Floyd | to look at its cursed Runes, you feel that by perusing the Baron's Floyd | last Endeavour you may bring his activities to light. Floyd | Floyd | The Tyrant, it seems, was planning for his inevitable Demise. His Floyd | study was of an ancient Curse, activated upon its caster's Death for Floyd | the purpose of Revenge. The Recipe is black & foul, and at the end of Floyd | is a caution to the would-be Warlock: Floyd | Floyd | <<Its close ties to the Caster's physical Blood make this Curse Floyd | vulnerable to a Weakening or Breaking through methods of Sympathy. The Floyd | tying of the curse to the Caster's Soul instead of to the Blood would Floyd | make the Curse un-breakable, but none yet have accomplished this Floyd | Feat.>> Floyd | Floyd | > | Lionheart says, "Oh, perhaps we are reviving the Baron's body after all" | |||
Lionheart says (to Floyd), "x notes" | ||||
Floyd | The copious Notes are in the Baron's hand, nearly illegible. One Word Floyd | by its multiple occurances you distinguish as <<entrapment>>.
