QUESTS
"You wish to know some of the secrets of the land, do you?" Auntie
Emma glances around finally she nods and lowers her voice to a whisper and leans
toward you. "Listen carefully. I don't want spying ears to hear us. I can
tell you hints to get started but no more." She leans back and says,
"you look tired, perhaps you should sleep a bit. I'm no soothsayer, but I
hear you can see much in your dreams."
EQUIPMENT
Equipment is very important to your character. Using the INVENTORY command shows what you are wearing,
wielding and carrying. Make sure that items that must be worn to be helpful
(armour, clothing, etc) is worn and not carried. Make sure that items that
must be wielded (Shields, Weapons) are wielded. INFO INV PACK will show the contents of your backpack.
Items in your backpack are not available for use without being taken out of the
pack. "PUT <item> IN PACK and GET
<item> FROM PACK are important for moving items
around.
HEALING
Auntie Emma fingers an old scar on her arm, "People get hurt in life,
and some more than others! Happily, there are many ways to get fixed up
from the wounds and ailments of the land. To restore your health, I
recommend a nice long nap! Of course you may not have time for a nap, in
which case you must seek a druid for healing herbs, or an alchemist for healing
elixirs. Some skills are said to offer natural healing techniques, and
these can be very helpful. I would not advise you to march into danger
without some ready plan for patching up whatever ills may befall
you!"
SHOPPING
"Interested in shopping, eh? It's one of my favourite pastimes!"
Auntie Emma waves her hand around the room pointing out different things.
"I bought that trinket in Nineveh, they have the most amazing antique
shop. Oh! That one I bought in a little store in Maine. Such a lovely city Maine
is." Emma sighs happily. "To shop you should first have some talons.
Very important to have a bit of money on you. When you find a store you are
goods specific. For example if you want to buy a certain potion you can type
STOCK BOTTLE and this will tell you all the
item numbers that are bottles in the shop.(goods
number). Make sure that you do not put a space between the bottle and
item number. You can do this with anything you see for sale and want a
closer look at." She stops and starts rocking her chair. Apparently waiting
for your next question. As you start to ask her more she gives a start.
"Oops, I forgot to tell you how to purchase things. You type BUY item and the item number. For instance when I
bought this lovely dress there were three different ones for sale. I bought
dress325 and got this nice little
frock."
