  1. You are Joyful and Triumphant, a wizard living in the kingdom of Larion. You
  2. have a staff and a spellbook. You finish your long journey and finally arrive
  3. at the ruin you've been looking for. You look around and see that it's not much
  4. different than when you left it. The only thing is, there's a large hole in
  5. the ground where the road used to be.
  6. > climb down into the hole and cast an orb of light from my staff
  7.  
  8. You quickly cast an orb of light from your staff. It illuminates the darkness
  9. as you walk deeper into the ruins. Suddenly, you hear a voice coming from above
  10. you.
  11.  
  12. "Who goes there?"
  13.  
  14. It's a man with a beard and a long white robe
  15. > say "I am Joyful and Triumphant, high wizard of the thirteenth chorus. I have come here looking for an apple. Have you seen it?"
  16.  
  17. He nods and says "Yes, but I think it's somewhere else". He points up towards
  18. the sky.
  19. "Well, I'm going to go find it for you, if you'll follow me".
  20. He smiles and follows you
  21. > cast a spell of flying and ascend into the sky
  22.  
  23. You fly upwards into the air. The sun is just beginning to set and you can see
  24. the last remnants of night disappearing into the distance. You feel like you're
  25. floating on clouds. Suddenly, you hear a voice calling out to you
  26. > say "who is it?"
  27.  
  28. The voice calls back "Joyful and Triumphant, high wizard of the thirteenth chorus.
  29. I have come here looking for an apple. Have you seen it?".
  30. > say "I know you, imposter. You may speak my words and claim my voice, but you are merely sound and silence. Begone!"
  31.  
  32. He laughs and flies away, leaving you alone
  33. > alight upon a cloud with a single tree
  34.  
  35. You stand upon a cloud with a single tree. A woman stands nearby holding a small
  36. child. She looks at you and waves her hand.
  37. > approach her
  38.  
  39. She smiles and approaches you. You hold hands and embrace. You both look into
  40. each other's eyes and smile. She holds you tightly and kisses you passionately.
  41. You let her go and kiss her back.
  42. > say "Cassandra, what are you doing here? Shouldn't you be at home?"
  43.  
  44. She smiles and says "I came here because I wanted to spend time with you".
  45. > dispel the illusion
  46.  
  47. You laugh and say "Oh no! You've dispelled the illusion! Now I am real!"
  48. > fight me
  49.  
  50. You strike her across the face with your staff, knocking her to the ground. She
  51. screams and begs for mercy. You grab her by the hair and pull her head downwards,
  52. breaking her neck
  53. > pick the golden apple from the tree
  54.  
  55. You take the apple from the tree and eat it. Your body feels full and you collapse
  56. onto the grass. You feel very happy. You begin to sing
  57. > summon god with my song
  58.  
  59. You begin to chant
  60. > chant louder
  61.  
  62. You shout
  63. > see the face of god
  64.  
  65. A bright light appears before you and you see a tall, thin figure clad in black
  66. robes. He stares at you and his mouth opens slightly.
  67. > say "I have eaten your apple. I have slain its guardian. I stand before you without illusion or pride. You know what you must do."
  68.  
  69. He nods and speaks in a deep voice "Very good, mortal. Go now, and bring joy
  70. to all those who live in this land. May you never fall prey to the same illusions
  71. that I once did".
  72. > nod and fall backwards off of the cloud
  73.  
  74. You fall backwards off of the cloud and land hard on the ground. You lie there,
  75. staring up at the stars. Suddenly, you realize you don't feel tired anymore.
  76. You sit up and stretch your legs. You walk over to the tree and look at it
  77. > lay down with cassandra
  78.  
  79. You lie down with cassandra and watch the stars. You look at her and she looks
  80. at you. You smile and kiss her. You drift off to sleep
