You find a hiding spot and attempt to blend in with the surroundings.
You notice an umber stonehoof ram watching as you slip into your hiding spot.
Mathalani's tattoos flare with a brief pale luminescence.
You stealthily move southeast.

You stealthily move northwest.
You spring from your hiding place!
An umber stonehoof ram is surprised!
Mathalani helps you maneuver in to make your attack!
An umber stonehoof ram no longer appears unnaturally calm and docile!
An umber stonehoof ram has been defeated.

Mathalani reaches out towards the corpse of a umber stonehoof ram, but it backs away.
You ask, "Oh, were you doing something?"
Mathalani amusedly says, "I was going to see if it would let me pet it."
Mathalani pats the corpse of a umber stonehoof ram lightly on the flank.

>repair axe
You'll have to get the fir-hafted iron throwing-axe (keen-edged) red-hot before you can repair it effectively. Maybe put it in a forge and wait a bit for it to heat it up?
Stop putting watermellons into the first thing you see that looks like it can hold a watermellon. It is most rude, because you'll only make them feel like they don't belong.

I have never had a 7 tumbler line up like this... ever. I was laughing at it. Someone was very lazy about this lockbox.
Contents:
738 riln
a small gray crystal pendant (opaque)
a vial of fulvous dye
(closed)]
After feeling around in the lock a bit with your steel lockpick (scuffed), you determine this to be
a 7-tumbler lock with a difficulty around 480. You'll want to pick forward if you want to move
forward to the first tumbler.

torque from your copper tension wrench.

Lionel says, "I need to write this letter."
Lionel says, "Oh."
Lionel asks, "Er... Her surname, again?"
Lionel says, "Candel..."
You say, "Calandrini."
Lionel says, "Candelabra."

Journey in the Philosophy Section

Post by Teri »

Whoever stacked this set of books went on a journey in the philosophy and religion section. I was giggling hitting enter again and again. It ended up with a single history book at the end.


examine books


You carefully examine a stack of books that you are holding ...
A stack of books that need to be shelved in their proper sections at the Library.
There are 7 books left in the stack. The topmost title is: "On Emotions"
It is a large item.


[Library, Religion & Philosophy Stacks] (study) (InUr) Mild

The area is mostly quiet.
The area is warmed by a lit wood-burning stove.
Obvious exits: west, east, south.




shelve book
You look for the proper place to shelve the book titled "On Emotions" ...
Ah yes, it should fit here in the Philosophy section. You slip the book onto a shelf.
You have 6 books left to be shelved. The next is titled "Love and Loss".
Roundtime: 10 seconds.

I'm not sure why this made me chuckle earlier but I thought I'd share.

Also here: Mittens (drenched).

You pet Mittens.

You say, "Oh you poor cat, You should go indoors."

The land is drenched by rainfall.
Your fine night-blue wechuge leather longcoat shields you from the rain.

Mittens heads south, dripping wet.

I greatly enjoy the weather mechanic but poor Mittens.

::SAY:: Remilia says, "Whiskey's a bit diluted but, this has enough in it."
Remilia gets up off a heavy wooden barrel.
::EMOTE:: Remilia motions in an over head wave.
::EMOTE:: Maya leans forward, watching Remilia with interest.
Remilia heads out.
::EMOTE:: Maya leans back, watching the door.

You look over a bog body for any obvious wounds ...
Wounds or maladies:
chest: moderate wound
right arm: slight wound
abdomen: moderate wound

You are now aiming for the chest when attacking. As a result, you will experience an extra second of roundtime when making applicable attacks.

You swing at a bog body with your iron mace!
34 crush damage (abdomen)
8 alchemical damage (abdomen)
(energy -6)
Roundtime: 6 seconds.

I think my Physicker needs to go back to whatever shady school he allegedly got his medical license from and take some remedial anatomy courses.

I think this is my favourite soap
You carefully examine a bee-shaped honey soap that is in a thick parchment package (open) ...
Smelling strongly of honey, this soap has been carved to resemble a bee. Its glossy black eyes seem
possessed of a subtle hostility.

Weird targeting fluke making for a funny moment.
disarm closed lock 3
You set to work on disarming the needle trap on a plain chestnut lockbox (closed) ...
Using some narrow pliers, you reach into the lock and bend the needle a bit. No longer aligned with the tiny hole, it should now just spring harmlessly against the inside of the lock mechanism casing.
You feel you have effectively disarmed the trap.

pick closed lock 3
(You will continue to silently repeat this action until you specifically stop or are otherwise prevented from continuing.)
You insert your steel lockpick (heavily damaged) into the lock on a flat-topped cedar lockbox and begin feeling around for what type of mechanism it might be ...
You stop picking the lock on a flat-topped cedar lockbox (closed).

You have triggered a trap!
Ouch!! Something sharp just pricked your hand! A tingling sensation courses up your arm as the world around you grows foggy and dim ...

You fall to the ground!

You slowly regain consciousness.

Cerise blinks her eyes slowly back open and blearily looks up at Black before she mumbles, her words a little slurred, "Not. A. Word."

"Oh, I've said what I needed to while you were helpless." There doesn't seem to be any of the concern you showed in Black's voice.
You think to yourself, "I am surrounded by idiots and petulant children."

You experience a sudden flash of insight, as though you have an increased understanding of who you are.
