Floyd ] Beyond the Valley Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | The occupied territories. Floyd | Floyd | Faith, but this has been worse than you could have imagined. You gave Floyd | no thought when you left the capital; the promise of escape was too Floyd | tempting and the intention of Jumaht's letter was too clear. Floyd | Floyd | Its contents, however, were less so, and you have had far too much Floyd | time in far too empty a land to think on their purpose. Over the last Floyd | weeks of your journey, your worry and your homesickness have worked Floyd | their way from an ache in your heart to a stone in your stomach. Floyd | Floyd | As if to remind you of his own burden, Huwen brays and nuzzles your Floyd | shoulder. You place a hand on his nose and whisper a word of thanks, Floyd | for you are alone here except for him. Alone amongst the once-mad. Floyd | Floyd | The gates of Diahl lie before you. Everything else lies behind. Your Floyd | journey here is ended. Your work is just beginning. Floyd | Floyd | The Cuckold's Egg Floyd | A Tale of the Apostasy by Veronica Devon Floyd | Release 1 / Serial number 140720 / Inform 7 build 6G60 (I6/v6.32 lib Floyd | 6/12N) Floyd | [First-time players should type "info" for instructions. Type Floyd | "credits" to view the credits.] Floyd | Floyd | Beyond the Valley Floyd | Here, the path takes its final turn north, towards the gates of the Floyd | town. It is as narrow here as you can remember, becoming a slight Floyd | track clinging to the cliff wall. As such, the view of the valley Floyd | below is unmarred by any obstruction. Floyd | Floyd | Huwen stands beside you, as ever, heavy under his pack. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| genericgeekgirl says (to Floyd), "x me" | ||
Floyd ] Beyond the Valley Floyd | > Floyd | > X ME Floyd | Floyd | You've tried to look the part of a merchant of modest means, and you Floyd | have mostly succeeded. The deep black of your skin marks you as a Floyd | southerner, a child of the plains and not the mountains. At least you Floyd | are not the ochre of a capitaler, for you would not to be trusted on Floyd | sight. Floyd | Floyd | Still, you do not expect to be welcomed with open arms. Floyd | Floyd | > | genericgeekgirl says, "I hope Huwen is a horse or donkey or something :)" | |
| genericgeekgirl says (to Floyd), "x huwen" | ||
Floyd ] Beyond the Valley Floyd | > Floyd | > X HUWEN Floyd | Floyd | You've had the donkey for a very long time now. He is everything you Floyd | could ask for in a travelling companion: good-natured and Floyd | uncomplaining. He does have a propensity for the sweet, but you can Floyd | hardly blame him for it, as he is not alone in his vice. Floyd | Floyd | Your pack is settled across his back. He somehow does not seem tired, Floyd | even after the long journey. Floyd | Floyd | > | genericgeekgirl says, "Whew." | |
| genericgeekgirl says (to Floyd), "pet huwen" | ||
Floyd ] Beyond the Valley Floyd | > Floyd | > PET HUWEN Floyd | Floyd | Huwen nuzzles closer. Floyd | Floyd | Huwen shakes himself. Floyd | Floyd | > | Zach says, "Aww" | |
| Zach says (to Floyd), "i" | ||
Floyd ] Beyond the Valley Floyd | > Floyd | > I Floyd | Floyd | You are carrying: Floyd | your bag (open) Floyd | a letter Floyd | The Book of Lies Floyd | a grey badge Floyd | your notebook Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "x letter" | ||
Floyd ] Beyond the Valley Floyd | > Floyd | > X LETTER Floyd | Floyd | Short and to the point, as all Jumaht's missives are. Floyd | Floyd | Darius: Floyd | A murder has occurred in Diahl. It is to be investigated Floyd | immediately. It is not known by me or by anyone that this is linked to Floyd | cult or worship activities. Floyd | Floyd | Keep quiet on your journey. Keep to your principles. Keep to your Floyd | truths. And know always how very proud I am of you. Floyd | Floyd | At the bottom, he has added a personal postscript: Floyd | Floyd | We will speak when this is over. I am sorry about Adar. Floyd | Floyd | It is not what is written that is so disturbing, but what is missing. Floyd | "It is not known by me or anyone"? And yet it is to be investigated? Floyd | Some part of you has hoped the postscript was the reason for the speed Floyd | of your necessary departure - an excuse to get you away from the Floyd | capital and all that had occurred. But there is more here, and that is Floyd | more than merely worrisome. For it implies you - specifically you - Floyd | were chosen for a reason. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| genericgeekgirl says (to Floyd), "x lies" | ||
Floyd ] Beyond the Valley Floyd | > Floyd | > X LIES Floyd | Floyd | A grammarie given only to initiates, though since it is written in the Floyd | Tongue, there is little worry of anyone else reading it. On the back Floyd | is inscribed the Brotherhood's creed: The world deceives. The Floyd | world wishes to be deceived. The truth against the world. Floyd | Floyd | Your initiation is not that long behind you, but as Jumaht is fond of Floyd | saying: the page remembers long after men have forgotten. Floyd | Floyd | [If you find need, you may "consult" the Book about topics or Floyd | "look up" topics in the Book.] Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| genericgeekgirl says (to Floyd), "x badge" | ||
Floyd ] Beyond the Valley Floyd | > Floyd | > X BADGE Floyd | Floyd | The sign of your office, such as it is. Glancing over its smooth, Floyd | featureless surface, you realize that you must be careful with this. Floyd | Before anyone sees it, you are simply another stranger or traveller. Floyd | After, you would be branded an agent of the Apostasy, with all that Floyd | that title demands. Floyd | Floyd | Huwen taps one of his hooves several times as if to dislodge Floyd | something. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| genericgeekgirl says (to Floyd), "wear badge" | ||
Floyd ] Beyond the Valley Floyd | > Floyd | > WEAR BADGE Floyd | Floyd | [You can't wear that.] Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| genericgeekgirl says (to Floyd), "x notebook" | ||
Floyd ] Beyond the Valley Floyd | > Floyd | > X NOTEBOOK Floyd | Floyd | This one is for official purposes; you left your personal notes in Floyd | safekeeping before you left the capital. Flipping quickly through the Floyd | fresh pages, running your fingers over the smooth parchment, reminds Floyd | you how very far you are from civilization. You would not find its Floyd | like for a hundred miles, you are certain. Floyd | Floyd | On the notebook's front page, you have made a list of tasks remaining Floyd | to you: Floyd | Find stable for Huwen. Floyd | Find local hall of records. (Contact - trustworthy?) Floyd | Officially present self to local elder or elders. Floyd | Gain housing. (Demand obesance, if necessary?) Floyd | (What of Silenus?) Floyd | Floyd | You jotted these down in an attempt to codify the work awiating you in Floyd | Diahl, a week ago. It was at one of the last inns you passed, the last Floyd | time you had a bath and a decent meal. You recall writing the last Floyd | entry with a distinct sense of unease. Floyd | Floyd | You are just about to close the book when your eyes catch on an Floyd | imperfection: there is writing on the inside cover. Floyd | Floyd | Huwen's ears twitch nervously. Floyd | Floyd | > | Zach says, "Interesting setting" | |
| genericgeekgirl says (to Floyd), "x writing" | ||
Floyd ] Beyond the Valley Floyd | > Floyd | > X WRITING Floyd | Floyd | If anyone asks you Floyd | how the perfect satisfaction Floyd | of all our desire Floyd | will look, lift your face Floyd | and say, Floyd | Floyd | Like this. Floyd | Floyd | Adar must have done this. You cannot think of when. You also cannot Floyd | think which is worse: that he wrote it before things ended, or after. Floyd | Floyd | > | Limax says, "And just like that, real life intervenes" | |
| Limax walks slowly out of the room and into the sunset. | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "look up Apostasy" | ||
Floyd ] Beyond the Valley Floyd | > Floyd | > LOOK UP APOSTASY Floyd | Floyd | [I only understood the first part of that-- trying anyway.] Floyd | >LOOK Floyd | Beyond the Valley Floyd | Here, the path takes its final turn north, towards the gates of the Floyd | town. It is as narrow here as you can remember, becoming a slight Floyd | track clinging to the cliff wall. As such, the view of the valley Floyd | below is unmarred by any obstruction. Floyd | Floyd | Huwen stands beside you, as ever, heavy under his pack. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "consult book about Apostasy" | ||
Floyd ] Beyond the Valley Floyd | > Floyd | > CONSULT BOOK ABOUT APOSTASY Floyd | Floyd | Entire volumes could be filled on the subject of the Apostasy - its Floyd | histories, its roots, its purposes. You know the party line of history Floyd | well enough: of the rising of the meek to their inheritance, the Floyd | joining of the forgotten and the downtrodden to lay low the mighty. Floyd | You also know the reality behind the slogans: the uncertainties, the Floyd | internecine conflicts, the inevitable fragmentation and Floyd | factionalization. And you have learned of the necessities the Apostasy Floyd | serves: what they defend against and what they preserve. Floyd | Floyd | Your own experiences with the Apostasy and the empire it has formed Floyd | have ranged from the seeming hostile (your initial removal from what Floyd | you thought was your community) to the benign (the strictures and Floyd | supports that defined your daily life) to the outright positive (the Floyd | friendships you have made and the life you have found within the Floyd | Brotherhood). Floyd | Floyd | Huwen looks at you for a long moment. Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW wakes. | |
| genericgeekgirl says (to Floyd), "x pack" | ||
Floyd ] Beyond the Valley Floyd | > Floyd | > X PACK Floyd | Floyd | The essentials for your journey which Huwen has carried so very far. Floyd | All that remains at this point are your clothes and a small bit of Floyd | coin. Floyd | Floyd | > | Zach says, "Decent writing" | |
| genericgeekgirl says (to Floyd), "x clothes" | ||
Floyd ] Beyond the Valley Floyd | > Floyd | > X CLOTHES Floyd | Floyd | [You do not normally need to refer to articles of clothing.] Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| genericgeekgirl says (to Floyd), "x coin" | ||
Floyd ] Beyond the Valley Floyd | > Floyd | > X COIN Floyd | Floyd | [That's not something you can see now, or I misunderstood Floyd | you.] Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| genericgeekgirl says (to Floyd), "open pack" | ||
Floyd ] Beyond the Valley Floyd | > Floyd | > OPEN PACK Floyd | Floyd | There's little point. Floyd | Floyd | > | genericgeekgirl says, "Fine." | |
| Zach says (to Floyd), "consult book about Diahl" | ||
Floyd ] Beyond the Valley Floyd | > Floyd | > CONSULT BOOK ABOUT DIAHL Floyd | Floyd | There is nothing written here of the town, but there is an entry on Floyd | the entity known as Mors Diahl, whose ending carved the valley at its Floyd | mountain's base. The entry notes that the single entity might have Floyd | been a merging of two - Mors and Diahl - as the entity's imagery Floyd | included elements of duality. Apostatic historians are uncertain if Floyd | this was an original mythology to the region, or the merging of two Floyd | previously unknown entities. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "consult book about Adar" | ||
Floyd ] Beyond the Valley Floyd | > Floyd | > CONSULT BOOK ABOUT ADAR Floyd | Floyd | The Book has little to say on the subject of love. Its purpose lies is Floyd | in the examination of veracity. Floyd | Floyd | And, as Adar so painfully taught you, truth has little to do with Floyd | love. Floyd | Floyd | Huwen taps one of his hooves several times as if to dislodge Floyd | something. Floyd | Floyd | > | Zach says, "Gah, and I was watching a sad movie earlier" | |
| Zach says, "Hey DavidW" | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "n" | ||
Floyd ] At the Gate Floyd | > Floyd | > N Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | At the Gate Floyd | The path expands here, to a walled courtyard of patterned stone. The Floyd | gates lead northward, and the town itself is clearly visible behind Floyd | and above the walls. It seems the mountain it lies upon continues Floyd | upwards for a good distance. Floyd | Floyd | To one side of the gate is a long, planed piece of ancient stonework. Floyd | Floyd | Huwen walks beside you. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "x mountain" | ||
Floyd ] At the Gate Floyd | > Floyd | > X MOUNTAIN Floyd | Floyd | [The last time you saw the mountain, it was at "Beyond the Floyd | Valley".] Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "x stonework" | ||
Floyd ] At the Gate Floyd | > Floyd | > X STONEWORK Floyd | Floyd | Four circular depressions of increasing depth are inscribed on its Floyd | pebbled and worn surface. It takes you a moment to realize that it is Floyd | a maofas - used in ancient times for the measurement of grain Floyd | and cereals. Each depression was precisely sized and standardized, Floyd | such that fair prices could be charged. Floyd | Floyd | This one seems to be part of the town wall itself, which implies that Floyd | the foundations of Diahl are centuries old, if not older. Floyd | Floyd | Huwen huffs, as if sighing. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "n" | ||
Floyd ] Diahl Floyd | > Floyd | > N Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Diahl Floyd | A shadowed, sheltered plaza just beyond the walls. The city gates lie Floyd | open to the south. On the far side, the road continues as a staircase Floyd | continuing up the mountain north into the town proper. Floyd | Floyd | The sides of the square are crowded with the small stone buildings you Floyd | saw dotting the mountain from below. Floyd | Floyd | Along the eastern side is a wooden structure with a thatched roof. Floyd | From the look and smell, you would guess it a stable. Floyd | Floyd | At the center of the plaza is a stone basin, filled with rainwater. Floyd | Floyd | Huwen wanders in behind you. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| jenrexrode arrives, full of fun and funk. | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "x basin" | ||
Floyd ] Diahl Floyd | > Floyd | > X BASIN Floyd | Floyd | For public use, you presume. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "lead huwen to basin" | ||
Floyd ] Diahl Floyd | > Floyd | > LEAD HUWEN TO BASIN Floyd | Floyd | [That's not a verb I recognise.] Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "huwen, drink" | ||
Floyd ] Diahl Floyd | > Floyd | > HUWEN, DRINK Floyd | Floyd | (your pack) Floyd | [Your pack has better things to do.] Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "drink water" | ||
Floyd ] Diahl Floyd | > Floyd | > DRINK WATER Floyd | Floyd | You take a handful of water and drink it. You hadn't realized how Floyd | thirsty you'd been. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| genericgeekgirl says (to Floyd), "give water to huwen" | ||
Floyd ] Diahl Floyd | > Floyd | > GIVE WATER TO HUWEN Floyd | Floyd | (first taking the basin) Floyd | [The basin isn't portable.] Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| genericgeekgirl says (to Floyd), "show water to huwen" | ||
Floyd ] Diahl Floyd | > Floyd | > SHOW WATER TO HUWEN Floyd | Floyd | (first taking the basin) Floyd | [The basin isn't portable.] Floyd | Floyd | > | genericgeekgirl says, "I swear if our donkey suddenly collapses from dehydration, I will rage quit." | |
| Zach says, "Maybe the stable will take care of that" | ||
| DavidW arrives, full of fun, but no funk. | Zach says, "I was just trying to lead a donkey to water *and* make it drink" | |
| Zach says (to Floyd), "e" | DavidW asks, "You started already? I thought start time was 10:30?" | |
Floyd ] The Stables Floyd | > Floyd | > E Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | The Stables Floyd | The dimly-lit wooden interior is barely visible, given the only Floyd | illumination is a lantern on the floor at the center of the room. In Floyd | the darkness beyond, you can hear the snuffling and shifting of what Floyd | must be two or three horses. Floyd | Floyd | A woman - clearly the hostler - stands beside the lantern. Floyd | Floyd | "Evening, evening..." says the woman in a cheery voice, turning at the Floyd | sound of the creaky door opening and then closing behind you. "With Floyd | you in just a ..." Floyd | Floyd | Her greeting dies in her throat as she sights you. The silence that Floyd | follows goes on for several moments. Floyd | Floyd | She smiles nervously, taking a deep breath. "Apologies, sir. "Twasn't Floyd | expecting a stranger, as it were." She blinks. "No offense meant, of Floyd | course." Another pause. "Just we don't see many come this way from the Floyd | valley. Sir." Floyd | Floyd | She brushes a non-existent speck of dust from her roughspun clothes, Floyd | then looks you straight in the eye. "That is where you came from? Floyd | Sir?" Floyd | Floyd | You could say only that you came from the valley, say you travelled Floyd | from the capital or ask about using the stables. Floyd | Floyd | > | genericgeekgirl says, "Start time is 10. It's been for a while now." | |
| genericgeekgirl says, "bb" | ||
| genericgeekgirl says, "Since March." | ||
| DavidW says, "And somehow, I didn't know." | ||
| genericgeekgirl says (to Floyd), "x woman" | ||
Floyd ] The Stables Floyd | > Floyd | > X WOMAN Floyd | Floyd | Her nut brown face and dark hair marks her as a local, a child of the Floyd | mountains. She is clearly unused to strangers. Floyd | Floyd | You could say only that you came from the valley, say you travelled Floyd | from the capital or ask about using the stables. Floyd | Floyd | > | genericgeekgirl says, "Or we can kill her and use the stable anyway. Or, uh.. not :)" | |
| Zach says, "Hmm, I guess it depends if we want to pretend we're not, uh, whatever we are" | ||
| Zach says, "Waah" | ||
| Zach says, ">MURDER DEATH KILL" | ||
| genericgeekgirl says, "We could ignore the question and ask about the stables." | ||
| DavidW says, "I missed the beginning, so I have no idea what's going on." | ||
| genericgeekgirl says, "You didn't really miss anything. We can reexamine inventory if that helps." | ||
| Zach says, "We've been sent to this town to investigate a murder" | ||
| Roger arrives, full of fun and funk. | Zach says, "Our boyfriend broke up with us" | |
| genericgeekgirl says, "And wrote us poetry or some such." | ||
| Zach sobs | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "ask about stable" | ||
Floyd ] The Stables Floyd | > Floyd | > ASK ABOUT STABLE Floyd | Floyd | "I would like to make use of your stables, if I may." Floyd | Floyd | Her eyes narrow as she realizes you have side-stepped her question. Floyd | Her mouth sets in a frown. "I don't know, sir." She gestures to the Floyd | shifting figures in the dark behind her. "Considering the time of Floyd | year, we don't have much room." Floyd | Floyd | You could ask about the cost. Floyd | Floyd | > | Zach says, "hmm" | |
| Zach asks (of DavidW), "What do you want us to do?" | ||
| DavidW says, "There doesn't seem to be a choice at the moment." | ||
| Zach says, "Oh, I mean as far as catching up" | ||
| genericgeekgirl says, "Presumably we can still answer her question." | ||
| DavidW says, "I'd rather have answered her question honestly, but I don't know what the honest answer was." | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "say you travelled from the capital" | ||
Floyd ] The Stables Floyd | > Floyd | > SAY YOU TRAVELLED FROM THE CAPITAL Floyd | Floyd | That doesn't seem to be a topic of conversation at the moment. Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW says, "I might have to lie down for a bit anyway and catch up later." | |
| Zach says (to Floyd), "ask about cost" | ||
Floyd ] The Stables Floyd | > Floyd | > ASK ABOUT COST Floyd | Floyd | "What would it cost to leave my friend, Huwen, here?" you ask, patting Floyd | him on the flank. Floyd | Floyd | Her smile has something feral in it. "Oh goodness - that's not how Floyd | things are often done here. Sir." She pauses. "But I suppose I could Floyd | look after this fine boy for...five measures of grain?" Floyd | Floyd | You could say you can pay in coin or identify yourself as a member of Floyd | the Apostasy. Floyd | Floyd | > | Zach asks, "Any thoughts?" | |
| Zach says (to Floyd), "identify yourself" | ||
Floyd ] The Stables Floyd | > Floyd | > IDENTIFY YOURSELF Floyd | Floyd | "And how many measures of grain would it be for --" you motion to the Floyd | badge, and the empty surface of it seems to drain all emotion from the Floyd | hostler's face. "-- one such as I?" Floyd | Floyd | Her eyes open wide and for a moment she can say nothing. It is as if Floyd | you suddenly became some creature of myth -- something to speak of and Floyd | fear, but never see. She looks down at the ground and simply nods. Floyd | Floyd | The hostler leads Huwen to a corner of the stable and places a bit of Floyd | sweetgrass before him. He begins contendedly munching, taking no Floyd | further interest in you or anything else. She then takes his pack from Floyd | his back and hands it to you. Floyd | Floyd | You could ask about the town. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "ask about town" | ||
Floyd ] The Stables Floyd | > Floyd | > ASK ABOUT TOWN Floyd | Floyd | "Tell me of the town." Floyd | Floyd | "I...I...I do not know what you wish to know. Sir. Is there something Floyd | specific you mean?" Floyd | Floyd | You could ask about the town's elders, ask about the hall of records Floyd | or ask about the murder. Floyd | Floyd | > | genericgeekgirl asks, "Should we jump into the murder or work up to it?" | |
| Zach says, "I say work up" | ||
| DavidW says, "Work up to it, I think." | ||
| genericgeekgirl says (to Floyd), "ask about elders" | ||
Floyd ] The Stables Floyd | > Floyd | > ASK ABOUT ELDERS Floyd | Floyd | "I needs must present myself to the elders of Diahl. Where may I find Floyd | them?" Floyd | Floyd | She nods, seeming grateful to be helpful. "Up the hill. Northward. Floyd | Straight north from the town center. Seek Leoc. Sir." Floyd | Floyd | You could ask about the hall of records or ask about the murder. | Zach says, "Though I've never been good about small talk" | |
Floyd |
Floyd | >
| DavidW says, "She's already antsy." | |
| Roger says, "I'm going to assume this dude is basically Judge Dredd" | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "ask about records" | ||
Floyd ] The Stables Floyd | > Floyd | > ASK ABOUT RECORDS Floyd | Floyd | "I presume Diahl has a Hall of Records, as required. Where might I Floyd | find it?" Floyd | Floyd | "Just up the hill, sir. Outside and up the steps. The old te--" She Floyd | catches herself, her eyes flicking to the ground. "Up the hill, sir," Floyd | she repeats. Floyd | Floyd | You could ask about the murder. Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW asks, "'temple'?" | |
| Zach says, "Yeah" | ||
| DavidW asks, "What do we know about the murder already?" | ||
| Zach says, "I assume the Apostasy has gotten rid of religion" | ||
| genericgeekgirl says, "We know one happened." | ||
| Zach says (to DavidW), "Nothing, though it might be linked to a cult" | ||
| Zach | A murder has occurred in Diahl. It is to be investigated immediately. It is not known by me or by anyone that this is linked to cult or worship activities | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "ask about the murder" | ||
Floyd ] The Stables Floyd | > Floyd | > ASK ABOUT THE MURDER Floyd | Floyd | "Tell me of the murder that occurred here." Floyd | Floyd | Her eyes widen as she realizes why you must be here. "You mean... you Floyd | must mean poor Camael. Sweet boy, terrible tragedy. But I'd heard it Floyd | was an accident. Not a murder." Her hands twist desperately. "I...I Floyd | don't know anything about it, sir. Truly." Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "talk to woman" | ||
Floyd ] The Stables Floyd | > Floyd | > TALK TO WOMAN Floyd | Floyd | You are already talking to the hostler. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "l" | ||
Floyd ] The Stables Floyd | > Floyd | > L Floyd | Floyd | The Stables Floyd | The dimly-lit wooden interior is barely visible, given the only Floyd | illumination is a lantern on the floor at the center of the room. In Floyd | the darkness beyond, you can hear the snuffling and shifting of what Floyd | must be two or three horses. Floyd | Floyd | Huwen stands here, contentedly munching sweetgrass. Floyd | Floyd | A woman - clearly the hostler - stands beside the lantern. Floyd | Floyd | > | Zach asks, "I guess that means we're out of stuff to say?" | |
| Zach says (to Floyd), "ask about alibi" | ||
Floyd ] The Stables Floyd | > Floyd | > ASK ABOUT ALIBI Floyd | Floyd | That doesn't seem to be a topic of conversation at the moment. Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW asks, "Surely we can ask about things not explicitly referenced?" | |
| genericgeekgirl says (to Floyd), "topics" | ||
Floyd ] The Stables Floyd | > Floyd | > TOPICS Floyd | Floyd | You can think of no valid changes of subject at the moment. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| DavidW says (to Floyd), "ask about camael" | ||
Floyd ] The Stables Floyd | > Floyd | > ASK ABOUT CAMAEL Floyd | Floyd | That doesn't seem to be a topic of conversation at the moment. Floyd | Floyd | > | DavidW says, "or perhaps not. Weird." | |
| DavidW says, "I really do have to lie down. I'm very sorry." | ||
| Zach says, "It's OK. Feel better." | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "lantern" | ||
Floyd ] The Stables Floyd | > Floyd | > LANTERN Floyd | Floyd | [You do not normally need to refer to articles of clothing.] Floyd | >EXAMINE LANTERNA simple oil lamp, likely the most common source of Floyd | light in Diahl once the sun has set. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "take lantern" | ||

| Zach says (to Floyd), "n" | ||
Floyd ] Town Center Floyd | > Floyd | > N Floyd | Floyd | The steps lead upwards, crossing several narrow streets which Floyd | generally run north through the homes closest to the walls. Floyd | Floyd | Town Center Floyd | This has the feel of a market square, though either the season or the Floyd | day is wrong as there is not a stall to be seen. The town extends in Floyd | all directions - narrow streets run further up the mountain to the Floyd | north, along its slopes to the east and west, and back towards the Floyd | valley to the south. You know that the way to the elder's home is Floyd | generally north of here. Floyd | Floyd | A particularly striking building lies on square's northeast corner. Floyd | Floyd | As you approach, you notice movement near the building -- a figure Floyd | moving in the shadowy alcove of its entrance. It is a young lady, Floyd | locking its front door. She slips the key into her pocket and adjusts Floyd | the pile of books in her other hand. Floyd | Floyd | As she turns, her eyes catch and hold yours for a moment. Then she Floyd | smiles slightly, nods, and walks away. Floyd | Floyd | It strikes you suddenly how what you have just seen would have been Floyd | impossible only a few generations ago: the books, the building's clear Floyd | use, the woman's ability to hold your gaze, or to walk unescorted. Floyd | Floyd | > | genericgeekgirl says, "Oh noes. Those womyns." | |
| Zach says, "Yay, women can read" | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "x lady" | ||
Floyd ] Town Center Floyd | > Floyd | > X LADY Floyd | Floyd | [I didn't recognise all of the words in that command.] Floyd | Floyd | > | ||
| Zach says (to Floyd), "x building" | ||
Floyd ] Town Center Floyd | > Floyd | > X BUILDING Floyd | Floyd | The building is several times larger than any building you have thus Floyd | seen in the town, sturdy and ancient, made of stone slabs built around Floyd | a central arch. The arch's apex, as well as the towers at its corners, Floyd | were broken off long ago, and the symbols that circled its walls have Floyd | been carved away. It is a common enough and necessary sight - the Floyd | conversion of such structures into approved shapes, the roods which Floyd | graced them long since destroyed. That and the girl you saw earlier Floyd | tell you that this must be Diahl's Hall of Records. Floyd | Floyd | The door to the Hall is currently closed and locked. Floyd | Floyd | Classes - which either the girl was taking part in or teaching herself Floyd | - must be over, and the Hall's hours past. You will need to seek out Floyd | the place's keeper tomorrow. A shame. Floyd | Floyd | > | ||

Floyd ] Under the Tree Time: 6:05 am Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | Floyd | You pause to hide behind a tree. You can hear the orc crashing Floyd | through the underbrush searching for its prey, you.

Floyd | Floyd | Suddenly it stops, sniffing the air when suddenly you smell something Floyd | too. A smell you know oh too well.

Floyd | Floyd | The world begins to blur as the smell becomes stronger, you suddenly Floyd | realize that it's all been a dream and the orc attacking your village Floyd | was nothing more than a result of some late night tacos.

Floyd | Floyd | "Will you get out of bed!!!", she screeches. Floyd | Floyd | "You promised you'd get rid of that hornets' nest before my mother got Floyd | here. You know she's allergic."
