North. 151 is the only option without an implicit 14, and 139 worked for us at the machine...

I'm probably going to get us killed here, but I'd like to suggest that we read the scroll first.

Shadows, eh? We should cast PANIC first, for the light-shield thing, and then attack.

Cast PiRsquared, abuse the globule wand as much as possible, then carve it to pieces with EJ's enhanced dragon-slicing abilities.

If it does a lot of damage, also cast PANIC.

This, but cast POW and PANIC along with the PIR^2, in advance. Then globule, slice, and, if it seems useful, fireball.

Your turn now, goons! What should we carry?

Jeez. Nine things is the max, and that assumes we have to drop something to pick up anything we might find. And there's no clue as to what might be vital.

I note the book specifically mentions the Artificial Aardvark, bookworm, blue powder, clickstick, gold braid, joke book, xylophone, hammer, and saw.

That's nine items. What the hell. Let's go for those.

!DoomCricket is clearly the least pleasant direction to head in. Let's go to 58.

Let's check out that little broom cupboard in 125.

Voting against sleeping. Last time we did it, it was all utterly horrible so far as I could tell.

But sure, let's check out small room 125 first. I'm _sure_ we'll find a torch there or in the big one.

Chug a potion then sleep. The best of both worlds (and then sleeping is less likely to kill us outright.)

Sounds lethal. Bring it on.

What kind of question is that? Of course we open the chest. Cast PIP first though, in case of poison traps.

It's probably an accident rather than a hint, but since North is not in italics, let's try that.

(EDIT: I mean, it's as good a reason as any other, right? Plus it's got the mystic '14' in the page number.)

What with this map not actually reflecting the territory, and the length of that loving maze, I've got absolutely no idea what entries we can validly choose from.

Use all five healing salves to get us back up to 45 HP and free up an inventory slot, then pick up the half-strength healing potions before continuing on to 96.

Leave the plant. We do have 33 healing potions, after all.
