The sword is made of plain steel and has little value, except for being used to save your miserable life. As I said, little value!
at the bottom of a dried-up well. The walls are caked with dried mud and the ground underfoot is muddy. Leading off Northwards from the well shaft is a narrow passageway.
The pack is just an ordinary backpack with no interesting featuresKLin a passageway which continues onwards for some twenty metres. The walls of the passageway are rocky and the ground underfoot is muddy.

&%The lantern you are carrying is a rather poor excuse for a light source.in a room which is rectangular and has closed doors in the middle of each wall that lead off to the North, South, East and West. Birds flutter round the room but, as you enter, they all fly off into one corner and nestle into the beard of a man sitting at a table. He is short and stocky, and his long beard stretches from his chin over the table. He is picking small round objects from a pouch and popping them into his mouth. They may be nuts of some kind. As you enter, he raises an eyebrow.
On examination this nut could best be describe as a dry, shrivelled object, which looks about as appetizing as a rabbit dropping.in a narrow stone walkway leading out over a great, round pit which drops down as far as the eye can see into the darkness below. The walkway bends across the pit and leads to another door.
the necklace is made of a strange metallic substance similar in lustre to silver. It shines and glimmers as you examine it in the light and could be considered a very valuable item indeed.)in a room which is evidently living-quarters of some kind. A table and chair stand in one corner and a bed in another. Doors lead North, West and East from the room. Above the North door is a small sign. Hanging on the South wall are: a picture (a landscape of a marshy swampland), two rusty old crossed swords, and a one-stringed musical instrument. A snoring noise makes you look at the bed. Two ugly reptilian heads are poking out from under the covers! Their eyes flick open at the same time and stare at you!

"Do you make a habit of disturbing people when they are asleep?"
"Leave the same way you entered or stay for breakfast ..... as the main course!"

The pouch is made of leather and is used for holding gold coinsin a corridor.The axe is a fine looking weapon and could have been made for a specific purpose.in a room which looks like a prison of some kind. The walls are bare and grubby. The floor is dusty and littered with bits of wood and stones. A few broken bones are scattered about. There is a foul stench hanging in the air. Doors lead to the North, South and West. Along the East wall are five skeletons, chained to the wall. Presumably this is all that is left of five adventurers who came this way some time ago! Three wooden chests rest on the ground beneath the dangling feet of the middle three skeletons.In the pendant is a magnificent jewel which glimmers in the light and produces a cascade of rainbow coloured beams of light. A gift that any woman would envy.in a room which is rectangular and doors in the North and South walls are the only ways out. The walls and ceiling of this room have been painted with a huge mural depicting a country scene. Trees, flowers, meadows, birds, insects and the like are painted all over. Gradually the sounds of the countryside become louder until you could swear you were standing in a wood. But nothing is moving!This seems to be an ordinary wooden torch with a burning flame and which appears to have no special properties.in a passageway which eventually reaches an underground river. As you approach this you can hear a beautiful voice singing a sad melody. When you reach the edge of the river and look downstream you can see a stunningly beautiful girl with long blonde hair sitting on a rock in the middle of the stream, singing. The only way onwards is to walk across the river. On the far bank is a passageway which leads straight ahead.This key is the one of the most important parts to this intriguing puzzle. It is the Crystal Key, you must use this key very wisely as it fits only one lock.in a passage which continues ahead as far as the eye can see.
The coffin is made of stone and is large enough to accommodate you!in a long, closed cavern in the rock. The room is roughly rectangular and in the rocky folds of its walls are small dark crevices. All is silent. In the North-East corner, a dark alcove is guarded by a glistening spider's web, stretching across its entrance.This is a gold florin.
in a room which is little bigger than a cupboard. In the centre of the wall opposite is an ornate table, and on this table is a wooden chest.The chest is made of wood and is the largest of the threein a room which inside is lavishly decorated with rich drapes. Hanging across each of the corners on the ceiling are golden net-like webs. This is the throne room of the Spider-King! Seated, or rather squatting, on a hand carved bench at the far end of the room is the Spider-King himself: an ugly, bulky creature with a spider's body and the head of a man. As you walk in, his eyes open and he glares at you. "Impudent intruder!", he cries, "Bow down to the ground before the Spider-King!"This chest is made of wood and is the second largest in the roomM+in a place where everything is pitch-black. Even a lantern will not light the area, so you have no way of telling whether this is a large or a small room or indeed whether it is a room at all! This is the smallest of the three wooden chestsin a narrow passage way.The mouse is like a mouse. Well what more can one say about a rodent!in a room which is bare except for a wooden table against the North wall. Two torches, mounted on the wall above the table, light the room. On the table is a leather-bound book. There are no doorways leading from this room except for the one through which you entered.As you examine the wand, you find to your dismay that it is in fact a Chameleon snake, which for some strange reason doesn't like to be handled and hence sinks its poisonous fangs into your outstretched arm.you are inside the entrance to a large room. Your lantern lights up strange hieroglyphics (picture script), which cover the walls. In the centre of the room, on a stone altar, is a great stone coffin. This is open and its lid rests against the alter. As you enter, a shape rises from the coffin. It is a human shape, wrapped in bandages, and it raises itself out of the coffin and comes towards you!
This is a potion of some description contained in a vial. The liquid is clear and very thick. The vial is closed. Maybe you should open it and drink the liquid!in a long passage way.The sword is made of iron and has become rusty and probably unuseable.in a room which is rectangular and doors lead from it to the North, South and East. The floor is bare and rocky and you cannot see anything alive in this room. Along the West wall, various objects are hanging. In the centre of the wall is a large portrait of a warrior, dressed in battle armour. A large sign under the portrait reads:

"These objects are the property of Marg, the Slaymaster. Touch them not if you value your life."

The objects that the message refers to are: a silver necklace, an axe and a sparkling jewel set in a pendant. The room is lit by a burning torch which is stuck into a crack in the wall.
This instrument has only one string and has never been tuned in its life.in a bare-walled and empty room. You have entered through the only door. It is roughly square, with rocky walls and floor.The picture is hung slightly to one side and is a portrait of the owners parents. DeVinci has nothing to fear from this artist!
in a long twisting corridor.It is made from solid gold, encrusted with emeralds, sapphires, diamonds, rubies and other valuable gem stones. A craftsman jeweller must have spent many a moon making this priceless article of jewellery.
in a passageway and you have arrived at a dead end.The dagger has a gold handle with a razor sharp steel blade. The handle is weighted, probably to enable this weapon to be thrown with extreme ease.
The chest is locked.
Your stamina is %Sa mummyYou attack the mummy as it comes towards you, you are low on stamina and the mummy throws you across the room.You attack the mummy, after a long hard fight you destroy the mummy but lose stamina.GRAPHICS ARE NOW ONGRAPHICS ARE NOW OFFYou attack the mummy with the sword, you slash the it across the chest, it moans and falls backwards.

You have destroyed the mummy.The mummy has killed you.You throw the dagger hitting the mummy in the chest, the mummy is knocked backwards.After your attack the mummy swings at you with its long powerful arms, you are caught across the side of the head and knocked to the floor. This reduces your stamina to %S.You use all of your might to swing the axe towards the mummy, unfortunately the axe was not as high in quality as it looked. The axe head is not securely attached to the wooden handle, so it is very ineffective as a weapon. The mummy hardly notices that you are trying to attack it.The mummys stamina is %A.You haven't got the sword.You haven't got the axe.
Press RETURN to continue
This is a necklace of choking. Anyone who wears it will be choked to death. It may be carried normally and will cause no harm.This is a pouch of plenty. It has a gold coin inside it.This is an ice jewel that shines beautifully in the light.This is an ordinary torch.This is a fine looking weapon. The axe is quite heavy and made of the finest materials.You slash wildly with the dagger as the mummy attacks, with seemingly little or no effect to the mummy's ferocious, savage onslaught.a daggerThe dagger is a very attractive weapon. It may be used as a throwing dagger.The mummy recovers from your strong attack and stands up again, its stamina reduced but now with even more intent to kill you.There is a rather dead mummy here just under the coffin on the floor.The well drops down about 20 feet to a dark bottom, you can't see much below. Over the top of the well is a pulley system.You tie the rope to the pulley system then let the rope drop down the hole.You attempt to go down into the well, as you lower your body down into the well you realise there are no foot holds to assist your decent. You stop and think for a bit whilst hanging part-way down the well, you then put two and two together and realise you are going to fall. Arrrgggggghhhhhh!!!!!!

a bucketa ropeThe pulley is quite a rusty piece of machinery, obviously it has been here a long time. Although very old it still seems quite solid. You carefully climb down the rope into the darkness of the well below.You untie the rope, it falls to the bottom of the well. Well, that was a pretty stupid thing to do, now your stuck up here. This is a very thick and heavy rope.You can't untie the rope, there is no rope tied to the pulley.a lanternThe lantern is now on.a backpackYou take a run towards the door and smash into it, the door splinters and breaks leaving the exit clear.There is nothing to $V.Thrushbeard is a dwarf, he will not fight you unless you attack him.Thrushbeard says "Now that wasn't bad, was it? You will need the Crystal key to enter the Kings chambers, that is all the help I can give you. Good luck my friend".The web is made of finely spun material and has a diameter of approximately four feet. The creator of this masterful piece of art must be quite large in stature.
The cover of the book is made of leather and has only one word written upon it in large gold letters, "SPELLS".
This is a seat for the King of Kings, the upholstery is of the finest velvet studded with diamonds. Its frame is of gold, with the Kings coat of arms emblazened in its centre.
This is a sword of the finest quality, sharp blade, gold handle and it feels so comfortable in your hands that you would think that it was just an extension of your arm.
The rope is made of twisted horse hair and seems very strong.
The handle is attached to a pulley over which the rope is placed.
This door is made of oak beams and is firmly closed. A sign on the door reads :-

"Abandon hope, all ye who enter!"
This stone emits a strange green glow when held up to the light and is probably the most flawless emerald known to man or beast.
The bucket is full of holes and has long since passed its use by date!

You attack the Dwarf with the $o and get your just rewards. All the birds take to the air and attack you with such feriocity and anger that you fall to the ground and die from many gaping wounds.I will help you my good Sir, but first have one of these delicious nuts.
As you start to chew this wonderful gift of food, you notice the Dwarf smile and the foul taste of the thing makes your stomach turn. Reluctantly you swallow it.
There isn't a nut here, you must be hallucinating!
I have given you all the help I can my friend, you're on your own now.
I only help my friends and you can't be a friend because you haven't eaten that delicious nut that I gave you.
As you examine the $O, you hear a deep rumbling noise and the ground starts to shake.
As you lay your thieving hand on $O, a siren goes off and you hear footsteps coming from all directions, getting closer and closer.
Do you still wish to take $O.Eventually the sound of the footsteps disappears.
As you wait something starts to happen. Shapes are beginning to form in the room. You can make out a bookcase lining the North wall. A fireplace with a burning fire is becoming visible in the centre of the East wall. A tall, lean man is standing by the fireplace, looking at you. Along the South wall stands a pedestal, on top of which is a fuming cup of liquid. The man opens his mouth and speaks:

"So! Nandras has a visitor, eh? And what does this intruder want in here?"
I hold the Crystal Key which you will need to enter the Spider King's chambers. Before I give you the key, you must first find and destroy the mummy and return to me. You will then be rewarded for your galant actions.
The mummy can only be destroyed by the Flaming Torch in the room West of here. Nothing in this room will harm you, so don't be afraid of any noises that you hear. My last piece of advice is BEWARE of the silver necklace.You must destroy the mummy.Your mission is not complete. I will not give you the key until the mummy is destroyed.Well done! You have rid me of that nuisance mummy forever. Here is your reward, happy adventuring my friend. Goodbye and good luck!

Nandras gives you the Crystal Key.

You can't attack something that isn't here.As you examine the $O the skeletons chains begin to rattle and the skeletons bones start to move.Ok, you have the $O.
Ok, you have dropped the $O.
As you search the room, you notice a wood pixie floating in the air, smiling mischieviously at you.

"What are you looking at and what are you doing in MY wood?"
"Answer me or pay the price."
As you lunge across the room in a desperate effort to dispose of this annoying creature, it disappears and reappears instantly, raising its hands. There is a brilliant white flash and you fall to the ground in agonising pain.
"Try that again and you won't live to try a third time."
Unfortunately, you failed to survive that attack.
Do you wish do join this beautiful maiden (Y or N)?
You dive into the water and swim surprisingly quickly over to the fair maiden. Hand in hand you both swim down the river to live a life of pleasure.
Ah well! You had your chance for happiness, you probably won't get another. With a tear in her eye she dives into the water and is gone forever.
The mermaid is an ex-FISH ONLY centrefold model.a mermaidYou release the mouse, which drops to the floor. At which point the lizard jumps up on the bed screaming:

"Please take that horrible thing away."
"I'll do anything you want, just get it out of here!"
On searching the room you find an amulet and a dagger behind the picture.
You didn't heed the lizards warning about its hunger and so you have ended up as its answer to cornflakes.
The $O is now unlocked.
The $O is now open.You slowly turn and exit the same way you entered. The lizard returns to its sleep.You were unwise to ignore the warning from the lizard, this will cost you dearly. The lizard jumps from the bed within the blink of an eye. The reptile sinks its long fangs into your neck draining your life away.in a room which is evidently living-quarters of some kind. A table and chair stand in one corner and a bed in another. Doors lead North, West and East from the room. Hanging on the South wall are a picture (a landscape of a marshy swampland), two rusty old crossed swords, and a one-stringed musical instrument. There is a two headed lizard jumping and screaming hysterically on the bed. The small mouse is scampering around on the floor, at the bottom of the bed.
Q�The door seems to be solidily closed.The lizard is so frantic that you are able to leave unnoticed.Your ignorance has got the better of you. Your attempt to search the room is cut short by a two headed lizard killing you. You decide to forget the idea and die miserably instead.You really must have your hearing seen to, what the lizard basically meant was 'if you move you die'. So be it, the lizard jumps from the bed and sinks its long fangs deep into your neck. This makes you feel a little ill and also a lot dead!!!The floor is covered in dust. At the bottom of one of the walls the dust has been scuffed about.You push the wall. The wall at first doesn't move, then suddenly starts to slowly sink outward as your body weight leans against it. Before you realise there is a hole in which you are about to fall. You tumble around in complete darkness then a magical feeling comes upon you, then nothing .....

You wake to find yourself outside overlooking the greenland below. The breeze is quite refreshing after being below in the darkness. There is no sign of any exits by which you could have got here.You take the mouse by the tail and dangle it in front of your face. The mouse looks about as appetising as a slug that has been run over by a wheelbarrow. Reluctantly you lower the mouse into your mouth, it starts to squeal as you chomp down on its spine which crackles with every chew. Trying to ignore the taste of raw, unclean, moving mouse wriggling wildly inside your mouth you eventually eat the mouse. Boy, you really are sick!!!!!That is a really sick idea, thankfully the mouse is not present thus stopping this cruel, bloodthirsty act.You wait for a while . . . .!

You can't eat the $OThe $O is not here which is fortunate because eating it would be silly!You talk to the $O, well what a surprise! You get no answer.
Perhaps you should try and communicate with something that is either here or wants to talk back!

You attempt to attract the mermaids attention and call out to her.

The mermaids eyes light up, she gazes across the water to look you in the eye. A rush of emotion goes through your body at this point. The mermaid does not reply.You search around but find nothing of interest.You attempt to open the door but to no avail. You begin to wonder if this door has hinges.a zombieThe zombie is undead, its mindless body brought back to life by some superior being. This is a very dangerous character. Its stamina is 800.A zombie enters from the Northeast. You look to where eyes should be but only see large black holes in a white face. The zombie attacks you.Your stamina is now %S.You attack the zombie with the sword. You swing the sword with all of your might and slash the zombie across the chest. The zombie's stamina is now %g.

As you back off slightly the zombie attacks you again in a mad frenzy. The zombies strength is amazing. It throws you across the room into a wall. Your stamina is now %S.Your final attack has killed the zombie which is lying on the floor. To your astonishment the zombie slowly fades away and then disappears.Your defence was not strong enough to protect you from the zombie. The zombie can never kill, victims are just transformed into other zombies. This is what has become of you: You will walk this land for eternity.The book has 20 pages. Enter which page you wish to read.

The lizard replies "I will tell you all I know, just please get that mouse away from me. Firstly you will need the Crystal Key to open the door to the North. The throwing dagger can be used in battle, of course you can only throw it once but it will do a lot of damage. The keys I have are of no use, I just like collecting them, well everyone likes to collect things, even two headed lizards."The lizard replies "I will tell you nothing, now get out of here before I kill you!"The sign reads 'DO NOT ENTER - BY ORDER OF THE SPIDER-KING'.You take a run and jump across the deep pit and land not far from the edge on the other side. You then go North.You jump - Whoopie!!!You lift your sword high above your head. The Hellhound jumps at you, at the same time as you bring the sword down on its head. A final cry from the Hellhound is heard and then silence. Congratulations, you have successfully killed the Hellhound. Like all other things in the well the hound slowly disappears as if it was never here.

Your stamina is now %S.

You take your sword and swing it at the Hellhound. The hound yelps as the sword cuts deep into its flesh and blood flows from the wound. The animal is ever increasingly madder. The hound's stamina is now %h.

The hound attacks you. You feel yourself get weaker as the hound bites at you. Your stamina is now %S.You attempt to walk. Before you realise it, a Hellhound is upon you, raking at your body with its powerful claws and teeth. You throw it off with difficulty. Your stamina is now %S.You were not strong enough to survive the powerful beast's furious attack. The creature has bitten your neck, blood freely flows from the wound. Your sight blurs and finally fades. You're dead!
Press RETURN to attack again.

You throw the dagger at the zombie. The dagger hits the zombie square in the chest. The zombies stamina is now %g.Quickly you take the dagger from your belt. With a flick of the wrist the dagger flashes through the air and hits the Hellhound, injuring it substantially. The Hellhound's stamina is now %g.The spider says "That's what I like, a bit of obedience. Now due to my pleasant mood I will help you on your quest. Here is a note. It contains information on how to get to the book which contains a magic spell. Now begone, you need no more from here." The spider throws the note nearby.a note The note reads:-

The treasure room door can only be opened by a spell. The book which contains the spell is guarded by a Hellhound. This creature is very dangerous and will attack you if you try and enter the spell book room. You will find both the Hellhound and spell book by going Northeast at the caves.You bow, and boy do you look silly!You hear a deep rumbling sound but nothing happens.The rumbling sounds start again. You hear a grind as the huge heavy door automatically opens. As it opens, beams of light explode in front of you, at first dazzling you but as the door completely opens the light dies down, the magic is done.The lamp is already on.
The lamp is already off.
The lamp is on.
The lamp is off.
The lantern is now lit.
The lantern is now switched off.
in a room which is evidently living-quarters of some kind. A table and chair stand in one corner and a bed in another. Doors lead North, West and East from the room. Above the North door is a small sign. Hanging on the South wall are a picture(a landscape of a marshy swampland), two rusty old crossed swords, and a one-stringed musical instrument. You can also see a two headed lizard jumping frantically on a bed and screaming hysterically! There is a small mouse scampering along the bottom of the bed.in a passageway which continues onwards for some twenty metres and then ends in a sturdy door. The walls of the passageway are rocky and the ground underfoot is muddy. There was once a door to the North but only fragments are on the floor now, the exit is clear.
you are inside the entrance to a large room. Your lantern lights up strange hieroglyphics (picture script), which cover the walls. In the centre of the room, on a stone altar, is a great stone coffin. This is open and its lid rests against the alter.
The mummy screams as you plunge the lit torch into its body. Soon the mummy is ablaze and running frantically around the room. Eventually the mummy burns down, leaving nothing but a charred mess on the floor.a lantern (lit)You attack the mummy with the sword. You swing the sword across at the mummy, hitting it with all of your might. The mummy's stamina is now %A.

The mummy attacks you. Its powerful arms smash into your skull. Your stamina is now %S.

You attack the mummy once more. The mummy's stamina is low, the mummy retreats into the coffin.

The mummy's final impact was just too much for you. You stagger around for a while trying to co-ordinate yourself. Your head is badly damaged, you feel yourself slowly fading away. At first the room goes blurred then nothing .....

YOU'RE DEAD !!!!

You are beginning to feel a little weak.
You are feeling a little weak and are getting tired.

Q�The passage ends in a sturdy door, which is closed.
At the end of the passage, to the North, is the remains of a door.
From deep in the darkness you can see two deep red points of light and a low growling confirms your suspicions. Something is watching you."I'm warning you, next time you try that you're history!"
in a large cavern. The only available light source, is that of your lantern. The floor of the cavern is made of stone and is rather damp. As you stand in this dank and miserable place, you notice water dripping from the ceiling which causes a splashing sound as it hits the solid stone floor. Upon one of the walls there's a marble plaque.
in a featureless stone corridor.
As you climb into the coffin, you hear the grind of stone against stone, as the coffin lid seals you inside.

Slowly the floor of the coffin begins to lower and you find yourself falling through the air.
As you climb into the coffin, you hear the grind of stone against stone, as the coffin lid seals you inside. As a coffin is designed for the deceased, you obviously desire this state of health. After a few minutes, breathing becomes more difficult. You frantically search the corners of the coffin, in order to find a supply of air or means of escape.

climbing a stone staircase. As you reach the top of your ascent the floor closes silently beneath your feet. On examination, the room you are now standing in would best be described as an old family crypt, which has not been used for many a year. The walls of this cold and dank building are covered from floor to ceiling in cobwebs.stood on a path in a graveyard. Behind you is the crypt. There is a path leading East and Northeast, to the West is a small medieval church that runs the length of the graveyard and to the South there is a grave.on a path which leads around the North side of the church.stood in front of a large iron gate.on a path and to the South you can see a grave.��inside the church. The walls of the church consist of plain wooden panels. An aisle runs Southward through the centre of the church with pews either side of it. standing by a plain wooden pew.standing in an aisle.

Died this year 1504, June 15th. The gravestone bears the inscription

UNKNOWNThe man is very old and sad. He is smoking a small wooden pipe. His hands are scarred from many years of hard life. He smiles wearily at you as you study his features.a spadeIt has seen better days in its time and has been used to dig many a hole.The shed is made of wood, which is starting to rot around the roof.

There is a table in one corner with some freshly baked bread on it. A single chair also sits beside the table. An open fire burns in a huge fireplace that runs along the South wall. You can feel the heat of the fire and hear the crackle of wood burning ferociously. A South exit leads to a log pile in the back of the lodge.in a store of some kind. There are shelves lining each of the walls with various things both useful and totally valueless. The room is fairly dark, only lit from the sunlight behind you.in the back of the lodge.

It used to be used a lot by all of the fishermen who came to fish down by the lake but many years have gone by since this lake was last fished in.The bread smells delicious, it has been freshly baked.The table is made of heavy oak. It has been well used judging by the marks and scratches that cover the surface.The chair is of a plain wooden type. It looks as if it may have been mended several times before, judging by the different shades of colour in the legs.The log makes a fine piece of burning material.

But as you insist on washing your clothes whilst you are still wearing them, you finally reach the end of a short sliding adventure and end up in a bath of hot caustic soda solution, which slowly cleans your clothes and removes most of your skin.in the main entrance of the inn. Stairs lead upwards toward a landing and to the West is the reception area.in a bakers shop. There are shelves on the West wall behind the serving counter and there is a number of items of confectionery. An old woman stands behind the counter and smiles as you walk into the shop.

"Good day to you, dear sir! How may I help you." she exclaims.
"I can offer you bread, fruit cake or my special homemade pie?".

On the wall behind her is a pricelist.
in a tavern. There are a few tables scattered around the room. As you enter the sound of voices ceases and everybody looks toward you. Behind the bar there is a large man cleaning drinking vessels with a cloth. On reaching the bar he places the mug on a shelf behind him.

"What's your poison stranger." he says in a deep rough voice.
in a tavern. The barman looks at you in anticipation of your order.in a one-roomed house. The floor is made of stone and the simple room is completed by rough wooden walls. The room is dimly lit by two candles on the North wall. This is the only light source as there doesn't appear to be any windows in the house. A table stands in the centre of the room, on which is a book. The rest of the dwelling is featureless and holds little, if any, interest.inside a house. The house consists of this room only but is decorated lavishly throughout. There is a window in the North wall, which is draped by red velvet curtains. The South wall encompasses a large stone fireplace, on which sits a number of ornaments. A large mirror hangs above the fireplace. In front of the fire are two large leather chairs, separated by an onyx table.Upon searching the room, you notice a lever in the West wall.
a small metal lever protruding from the West walla metal lever.The lever is made of a material similar to iron and is rusty due to the damp environment in which it is situated.
The lever will not move any further in that direction.
Grasping the lever in both hands and pushing with all your strength, it slowly grinds into position.

Grasping the lever in both hands and pulling with all your strength, it slowly starts to move, grinding against its housing. in a large stone room.

At the end of the aisle, there is a magnificent oak panelled altar, on which stands a large gold crucifix. Above the altar is a balcony, which houses a large pedal organ.At the end of the aisle, there is a magnificent oak panelled altar. Above the altar is a balcony, which houses a large pedal organ.As you emerge from the doors of the church, the sky begins to become dark. Dark clouds obscure the sun and the wind increases to such a strength that you find it difficult to stand. Glancing to the heavens, you see what seems to be a large hand break through the black curtain of cloud and, with a thunderous roar, a brilliant white bolt of lightning strikes you where you stand.
which is inside the open panel��The casket is made of wood and bears the simple inscription:-

"Herein lies the soul of Reverend Thomas"
The casket is sealed and can't be opened.
As you push the button it slides silently into the organ keyboard and disappears.
The ground is quite easy to dig up and within no time at all you have yourself a hole.

The ground is too hard here.
You don't seem to be carrying an item which could help you in your excavation.
The old man acknowledges you with a barely noticeable nod of his old head. He then returns to a state of lifelessness.Sorry, that is an irrelevant statement.As it is such a long time since you have last eaten, this humble morsel seems more like a full five-course meal instead of a mere loaf of bread.a coinYou now have some freshly made $O.You don't have enough gold florins to be able to buy the $O.some cakeThe cake is made from freshly picked fruit. The aroma of this delicious sight reminds you of your humble origins and is almost comparable to the smell from your mother's kitchen on baking day.some pieThe pie steams on the shelf providing evidence of its fresh arrival from the baking oven. The smell is making your mouth water and would seem to be an excellent buy.Oh no you don't. Trying to take things from a shop without paying for them is a criminal offence, even in this adventure.In a frantic bid to fill your face, you stuff the $O into your mouth. As you mull it over you realise that it tastes as good as it smelt. Your stamina level increases with this intake of sustenance.

MARY MUFFIN'S BAKERY

PRICE LIST

Bread .......... 1 gold coin

Piece of pie ... 2 gold coins

Piece of cake .. 3 gold coins

a tankardThe tankard is made of pewter. It is full to the brim with a fine strong ale.It is empty.The barman turns and takes a tankard from the shelf and fills it with a draught of ale and places it on the bar in front of you. He holds out his hand and you place one gold coin into his palm as payment for his wares.You take hold of the tankard and, without stopping for breath, you drink the amber nectar with practiced ease.The barman takes the tankard from you and fills it once again. He then replaces it on the bar.As you attempt to leave the bar the barman behind you shouts something. You stop and turn to find a large, very well built man standing in front of you.

"What ya think yer doin' stealin' my tankard?"

The barman takes a swing at you, knocking you to the floor, resulting in you dropping the tankard.Do you wish to retaliate ? (Y/N).You attempt to strike out at the barman, who surprises you with his quickness and dexterity by avoiding your blow and returns the attack by punching your lights out, good 'n' proper.

You wake to find yourself laying in a wet gutter.You apologise for your absent mindedness and pick yourself up and leave very quietly. Behind you, you hear sniggers from the other drinkers.The innkeeper is small, fat and bald, his eyes are set deep into his skull and is unshaven. In fact, if his appearance is any indication to the state of his rooms, you would be well advised to find alternative accomodation.The innkeeper looks at you suspiciously and grunts.

"I've got one left, it'll cost ya one gold florin a night."
You decide to accept his offer and hand him a gold florin from your pouch.

"Your room is up the stairs, turn right and it's the second room on your left - ROOM 3." he says. "You'll need this as well." Turning round he lifts a key from the rack behind him and hands it to you. You examine your pouch to find to your dismay that you haven't got any florins to pay for your room. Humbly apologising and trying to hide your embarassment, you turn and quickly shuffle out of the inn.

"Don't come here wasting my time again." the innkeeper shouts at you as you disappear through the inn door.The key is used to unlock a door in the inn and carries a tag on it which reads:-
ROOM 3 - NOT TO BE TAKEN FROM THE INNa room key"I haven't got any left, you've just taken the last one." the innkeeper snorts.As you attempt to leave the inn, you feel a hand grip your shoulder.

"Can't you read, this key must not be taken from the inn."
"I thought you were a trouble maker, well here's some trouble."

That was the last comment you heard from your irrate landlord and the last thing you saw was his fist descending into your skull.

You finally awake face down on the cobbled street outside the inn, shivering from the damp coldness of the floor and your head thumping with pain. If only Paracetamol had been invented.As you place your hand on the door handle to leave the inn, you here a distinct click of a gun being cocked. Shortly afterwards you feel a burning pain in your back as the projectile from the gun enters your body. Falling to the ground you begin to lose consciousness as well as a lot of blood. The last thing you see is the innkeeper standing over your body, pointing the gun at your head.

You should learn to take notice of the advice given by people and notices.
EVERTHING GOES BLACK.............
You are unwise to attack the innkeeper, nevertheless you carry out your intensions. You attack the innkeeper with the $o to no avail. The innkeeper swiftly sidesteps out of your way whilst bringing his elbow up into your skull. You are knocked to the floor, dazed but just conscious.You attack the shopkeeper with the $o. The woman is not quite as defenceless as she first seemed. Before you are even able to strike her she blocks your blow with a bow. With a flick of the wrist she strikes you to the body with the bow, knocking all the air out of you and you fall to the floor.You attack the barman with the $o. The barman predicts your attack and strikes out at you. The blow catches you on the chin and sends you up and across the bar. You land on your back and the barman says "If you want trouble, I'll give it to you".
The bed is made of wood and very plain (well in this day and age what else could it be made of!). Upon the bed is a very crude mattress.The mirror has a solid metal frame. Within this frame you can see a well weathered, bearded face, the eyes pale and drawn, the brow wrinkled with worry, the hair long, dark and tangled. The image, of course, is YOU!The cupboard, like all the other objects in the room, is made of wood. It has no doors or detail, just a few shelves on which clothes may be placed.The window cannot be opened as it comprises just a wooden frame (surprise, surprise) containing a single sheet of glass. The outlook through the window is plain and drab.The mattress consists of matted straw spread upon the base of the bed.The straw is matted, and is probably the crudest form of mattress you will ever see.Upon closer examination of the straw, you notice a piece of paper.The piece of paper shows a portion of a map.a chestUpon closer investigation of the object your keen and finely tuned intuitive abilities enable you to discover that the object in front of you is a plain wooden chest with no value whatsoevera piece of paperthe large keythe medium sized keythe small keyThe key does not fit this lock.top section of a mapYou do not seem to be carrying the $o. Try again, but use something you have with you.You raise the sword in preparation to strike the mummy, but unfortunately the sudden upward force applied to this relic is too much for the weapon to bear. There is a dull clang as various rusted parts of the sword fall to the floor. The remnants of the sword turn to dust and disappear forever.The rock is made of rock. It's rock coloured and weighs the same as a rock.Try : Turn <object> <instruction>in a passageway which eventually reaches an underground river. The only way onwards is to walk across the river. On the far bank you can see a passageway which leads straight ahead.Y)in a room which is rectangular with closed doors in the middle of each wall that lead off to the North, South, East and West. Birds flutter round the room, but as you enter, they all fly off into one corner and nestle into the beard of a man sitting at a table.
Nandras is a magical sorcerer. He has many powers, one of which he has just displayed - the ability to be invisible. He has a great knowledge as he has spent many hundreds of years in these dark depths. He will have information but you will have to pay a price. This price may be money or a task. Whatever he sets you, perform the task logically. It may be not as easy as you first thought. Beware - if you attack him he is very powerful, a mere mortal is nothing compared to the utter power of this man - he can wipe you out with a flick of a finger.Clenching your fist and teeth you strike out at the poor defenceless door. The impact of the blow causes a sharp pain to shoot up your arm and you quickly realise that punching this inanimate object is not going to do any good.
You are unable to punch that!!!!
The rock is rock shaped with a rock-like texture and colouring. It weighs about the same weight as a rock of this size would actually weigh. If this rock was placed next to another rock, you may have difficulty in distinguishing one from the other. In fact, one could say, that all rocks of this size are difficult to tell apart from each other!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DARKLANDS

You are walking down a huge colonnade, which is supported on each side by large, white, marble pillars. The only sounds you can hear are your own footsteps on the polished, marble floor and the thumping of your heart beating in your chest. At the end of the colonnade is a large golden door, engravings of gods and sorcerers can be just made out, glistening from the torches hanging from the ceiling high above. The door is flanked by two palace guards. As you draw nearer your heart beat increases with the thought of what fate may have in store for you this time.

After a brief meeting with the King of the Darklands you learn of your quest.
You must rid our land of the evil that has befallen it. Dark forces are at work to destroy and corrupt the once good citizens of this fair and peaceful nation.

Upon your quest you must find the spell script. This has been torn into three parts by the dark forces to prevent anyone finding it. Each piece has been hidden, its up to you to find them. The journey will be taken alone but, when met, friends will help you if asked.

The whole future of the Darklands depends on you!

GOOD LUCK!!!!!!!

Press <RETURN> to start.
following a small dusty footpath Northwards. Ahead you can see many trees and undergrowth. The squawking of large birds can be heard overhead, swooping and climbing into the beautiful blue sky. Another noise that can be heard is the sound of crickets in the grass either side of the path.looking at what may at first gives you the impression that you have come to a dead end. Large bushes and trees block any easy access in any direction. Upon further examination there are small breaks within the entangled undergrowth.amongst vast undergrowth with trees towering overhead. The different sounds of wildlife can be heard clearly in this otherwise silent part of Darklands. All exits look similar to the last. This is a very easy place to get lost.amongst vast undergrowth with trees towering overhead. The different sounds of wildlife can be heard clearly in this otherwise silent part of Darklands.

The different sounds of wildlife can be heard clearly in this otherwise silent part of Darklands. All exits look similar to the last. This is a very easy place to get lost. You seem to have come to a dead end: it would be impossible to go on any further.amongst vast undergrowth, with trees towering overhead. Before you stands a gigantic monument of some description. The base is made of solid rock, on which stand two large pillars holding up a further slab of rock. Standing on top the rock is an idol, a statue of something that looks quite inhuman. The statue consists of what may once have been a man, the head now being covered in a row of spikes, each spike having a human skull located on top. A dark liquid, probably blood, runs down each one. In the chest of the idol the head of a lion has been engraved, its ferocity showing in its large deep eyes. There is a small fire burning at the bottom of this horrific monument. The fire is flanked by two small statues of possibly wizards or warlocks. There is a magical feeling over the fire. A force seems to be at work here, though you cannot be sure whether it is good or bad.The birds seem very large, some up to 2 feet long. From the noise they seem very close but in reality they are quite high in the sky. The bird is commonly known as the large winged Trapid and they mainly eat small mammals but have attacked men before now. Their beaks have fine sharp teeth that can tear meat quickly and efficiently making them the enemy of the skies.Upon closer examination the crickets can just be made out in the long grass. The crickets are about 3 inches long and you can see them rubbing their legs against their backs, thus creating the noise you can hear. Crickets have very quick reactions making them almost impossible to catch. Even when caught, they have no use!The paper falls to the bottom of the fire. It doesn't seem to be burning!You attempt to put your hand in the fire, a silly thing to do anyway. Unsurprisingly the heat is far too great for you to do such a thing.All 3 pieces of paper can now be seen unburnt at the bottom of the fire. A small glint of electric blue is showing around the edge of one piece. As you watch the other pieces also start glistening. The fire is now starting to change colour, first blue then green and finishing with a startling bright red.

The fire stays that colour for a while, then suddenly a large ball of fire shoots into the sky almost knocking you off your feet. This is then followed by several other balls of pure light shooting up into the heavens. Soon the whole sky is alive with colour.

As you watch, a large form is slowly appearing in front of you. The form is of an old man wearing a cloak and holding what must be a stick or staff of some sort. This would not be too far fetched apart from the fact that he is sitting on a Harley Davidson 1400cc motorbike. There is a spurt of grit, dust and dirt and the ground starts to shake as he increases the revs and spins off. He brings the bike into a 180 degrees spin behind you. The ghostly rider momentarily can't be seen for dust and exhaust fumes. The rider stands up on the bike and joyfully jumps off, stumbles over some roots set into the ground and falls flat on his face.
<PRESS RETURN TO CONTINUE>

The figure sits up rubbing his nose. He then slowly stands up and brushes himself off. His face quickly changes from surprise to a large smile.

"Hi!" the rider says, "I bet you think my name is Drak, or Dr Death, well its not. My name is Bill, and that's Biker Bill!" You reply with "What's going on here?" and you are answered with "You didn't think all this was real did you? Are you mad or something? You're dreaming mate! Who the hell thinks he can save the world by sticking a few bits of paper into a fire!"

The vision is starting to fade, the voices are difficult to understand. A haze sets in and everything goes dark.

The next sound you here is the buzz of an alarm clock going off, you turn to see a Philips clock radio displaying the time 07.30.

The End

some fungian appleThe fungi is a light brown colour with white patches on its top surface. It is approximately 2 inches high with a soft texture. It is unlike any fungi you may have seen before and thus you do not know with any conviction that this is edible and non-poisonous. But you are low on stamina. What the hell, you may as well be hung for a sheep as a lamb!
The apple is blue in colour and banana shaped and probably tastes like an orange. If you had time you could probably plant its seeds and harvest the resulting coconuts.

Well, what did you expect a description of an apple to be like!
You tentatively place the fungi into your mouth and start to chew it. The taste of this growth is something quite unlike anything you have ever tasted before, but this is to your advantage as you feel your stamina increasing.
You bite into the fruit with vigorous actions and enjoy its unique strawberry flavour. It seems that my first assumption of this fruit's taste was completely wrong. But computers aren't perfect anyway.

Your stamina is increased with this intake of sustenance.

Ok, you have dropped the $O. You now have %b coins.
You are unable to remove the backpack because your hands are full. Try dropping something else before removing it.
You don't have enough gold florins to be able to buy the $o.You go to examine the coffin. Before you have a chance, the mummy attacks you.

Your stamina is now %S.
Here are a few commands which you can use with this adventure :-

GRAPHICS ON (OFF) - TURNS GRAPHICS ON OR OFF
SOUND ON (OFF) - TURNS MUSIC ON OR OFF
SOUND FADE - FADES MUSIC OUT
WEIGHT - INFORMS YOU OF THE WEIGHT YOU'RE CARRYING
STAMINA - INFORMS YOU OF YOUR STAMINA LEVEL
WAIT - ALLOWS TIME TO PASS WITHOUT MOVEMENT
RSAVE - SAVES CURRENT GAME STATUS TO MEMORY
RLOAD - LOADS LAST SAVED GAME STATUS FROM MEMORY
SUICIDE - A VERY QUICK WAY TO DIE!

Other than these few hints, you're on your own.
The $O is of no importance whatsoever.
a guarda guardThe guard is probably best described as a cross between a Bulldog, a Warthog and a Rhino. It would seem from the stench in the air, that he has a definite dislike of water.
Attacking the guard wasn't the wisest thing in the world to do, after all he is employed as the town's bouncer.

You may not be surprised to learn that you suffer from a good kicking. Consider yourself lucky to be still alive.
The Mummy is wrapped in decaying bandages and is looking at you with penetrating red eyes. The Mummy seems to be waiting....
Trying to eat the $O would be interesting but alas an impossible task. I fear that if you are getting that desperate, suicide could be a good idea!
What is there to tell about a heap ash on the floor. The mummy's dead, can't you stop thinking about it or do you have sick interests in the dead!
Nandras replies " You have completed my mission succesfully, I no longer need you. Begone, and complete your own mission".
As you search something starts to happen. Shapes are beginning to form in the room. You can make out a bookcase lining the North wall. A fireplace with a burning fire is becoming visible in the centre of the East wall. A tall, lean man is standing by the fireplace, looking at you. Along the South wall stands a pedestal, on top of which is a fuming cup of liquid. The man opens his mouth and speaks:

"So! Nandras has a visitor, eh? And what does this intruder want in here?"
You are unable to throw that.

The music is now ON.The music is now OFF.The music is now FADING...Your decision to terminate your life is not exactly surprising as you seem to be having difficulty with this adventure.

Perhaps you should try something easier. After all, this game was designed for people age 12 YEARS and upwards!

GOODBYE!!!!!!!!!!!!

--------------------------------------------------------As you attempt to cross the pit, you lose your footing on some loose rocks on the pathway and begin to tumble into the dark void below. An untimely death, for such a short time adventuring.
Turning the $O is wasting valuable time and effort and serves no purpose whatsoever!
You're wasting your time! That's of no use at all!

Money won't help you here!
Releasing the $O is quite a quaint idea, but would not help you in anyway, shape or form.
Trying to lift the $O is just a waste of energy!
Reading that is not a very fruitful occupation.I can't see that here.some moneyThere are %b gold coins.There is a single gold coin.xwThe $O is in room %R.You are in room %R.Money is too hard to come by around here to go throwing it away like that. Even the Chancellor isn't that careless!on an old cobbled road where it bends from its original east-west course and heads south into a small town.Press RETURN to continue.
You'll have to dig the hole first!There is nothing to play on here!
I'm so sorry to be the bearer of bad tidings, but to keep travelling North is getting you nowhere.
I would suggest you try wandering in another, more fruitful direction.

As your hand nears the rock it begins to glow. At first the light is dim, but quickly gets brighter, until suddenly it explodes with a blinding light and then vanishes altogether.
As you attempt to enter the coffin the mummy attacks you from behind and with one swift movement it breaks your neck.
Everything goes dark as your life force ebbs from your body........
Walking into a fire is not a very good idea, IS IT?
You suffer extensive burns and consequently die from your injuries!
