 You Are A Shade  You are in a ruined... home? House. Building? Edifice. You are in a ruined edifice. Within you see a filthy mattress covered in spider's webs and rickety stairs ascending to a second floor. The front and back walls are destroyed. To the... north? you see an expanse of desert the color of ash. A procession of shades trudge silently down a path into the distance. To what would then be the south the missing wall opens up to an endless abyss of featureless, colorless mist. The feeling of being watched by countless eyes beyond the mist pervades your thoughts. >

Your true name eludes you. For now, you are simply a Shade.

It seems to take great effort to break even these few gossamer strands. Nevertheless, you gain a-

BigBadSteve posted:> say BOO You attempt to shout an alarum but only manage a raspy, nearly silent wheeze. Like dry leaves blowing across a hard surface in a light wind. You struggle to recall what leaves are, exactly. You have yet to find a voice. Excelzior posted:> Go left  You can only go as far as the inner broken wall; beyond it you see the procession of shades trudging ever onward. Far in the distance you can make out a gorge or dry riverbed with some kind of construction on the near side. This seems to be the origin of the shades now moving past. You can exit the edifice to the north, go right up the stairs, or attempt to climb down to the south.

Colonel Cancer posted:Phase thru walls and the floor, you're incorporeal The boundaries and objects encountered so far remain solid and impassible to our current form. Exerting great effort presses us into the wall ever so slightly... or we may just be imagining it. EorayMel posted:>perform exactly 25 jumping jacks to get fired up and excited You attempt to overcome the dreariness of this place through some spontaneous calisthenics!     You're about to finish when you feel a tickling sensation on what would be your foot. You've gained a feeling card!

When this fails, you settle for mundane ascension up the rickety stairs.   You see a golden spyglass and a shattered looking glass.
