| Roger says, "Tundra is a good an idea as any, is where I'm at." | ||
| Roger says, "Might not be suited for summertime play but oh wells" | ||
| DavidW asks, "The one I uploaded a week or two ago and totally forgot about?" | ||
| Knight_Otu says, "I mean, we played Mrs Claus in spring/summer as well." | ||
| DavidW says (to ClubFloyd), "load sleepmask tundra" | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | Terence squinted weakly at young Matthew, kneeling at his bedside. | ||
| CF | "Our village is in grave danger, boy. The evil wizard from the north | ||
| CF | has summoned a great dragon, who even now threatens our very | ||
| CF | existence. You are our only remaining hope." | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Matthew paused for a long moment, then softly spoke. "But what can I | ||
| CF | do, wise one? I am but a puny champion to send against one so mighty. | ||
| CF | And I must stay here and help to care for you." | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | "There are more than enough villagers to take care of me, Matthew. | ||
| CF | Someone must take care of this wizard..." | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | But before he could finish, there was a blinding flash of light, a | ||
| CF | resounding thunderclap, and suddenly all was darkness. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | [Please press SPACE to begin.] | Knight_Otu exclaims, "The chosen kid!" | |
| MoyTravis says, "Hey, past tense. I wonder if it's all past tense, or just the intro." | ||
| DavidW says, "Dragons. Why did it have to be dragons." | ||
| Roger says, "But thou must" | ||
| DavidW pushes the green 'space' button. | ||

| CF | It is dark and silent for a long time. But as the day grows colder | ||
| CF | coming into the evening, you wake to find yourself alone and | ||
| CF | abandoned, tent and firewood a distant memory. Is this your friends' | ||
| CF | idea of a practical joke? | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Moving from room to room in most text games is a simple matter of | ||
| CF | choosing a direction, for instance GO SOUTHEAST. This can be | ||
| CF | abbreviated to SE. As well as the compass directions, UP and DOWN are | ||
| CF | available. You may also want to ENTER or FOLLOW an object. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Sometimes you will see things you can climb onto or down from. Try | ||
| CF | CLIMB LADDER for instance, or JUMP ON HORSE, or JUMP OFF BED. EXIT and | ||
| CF | ENTER may work just as well, or GET ON and GET OFF. Mostly these | ||
| CF | actions will have the same effect, but sometimes they may not- be | ||
| CF | aware. | ||

| CF | Matthew rugged himself up as warmly as he could. He knew full well | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | "This stone was supposed to be for luck!" | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Matthew wrenched at the rock, eventually dislodging it from the iron | ||
| CF | sword. Throwing it away a safe distance, he readied himself for | ||
| CF | battle. But the sword had rubbed the stone a little too much- it | ||
| CF | immediately crashed into his shield. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | A fine mess. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | A near white wolf hobbles sadly towards you through the storm, pausing | ||
| CF | at your feet. Before you can react, she limps away again, leaving a | ||
| CF | visible trail in the snow. | ||

| CF | you, but snow has already covered the trail. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | Defying the Storm | ||

| CF | | ||
| CF | A tall tree stands here, defying the storm. High in its branches you | ||

| CF | cub. | ||
| CF | | ||
| CF | The mother wolf licks at her paw, but recoils in pain. | ||
