What about:

>Carefully climb down.

[lordnincompoop]

((Since this situations doesn't seem to be interesting to people, I'm going to invoke a Deus Ex Machina and teleport you to another "room" with possibly more interesting stuff. I'm going to try to railroad you guys less, now. Maybe I'll get back to this later, maybe not.))

Suddenly, everything goes dark.

Some time later, you wake up in an octagonal room. The floor has an arrow pointing to your left. There are eight doors, one on each wall. The room is brightlly lit, but with what you don't know. You seem to be back in your own body, and the familiar weight of your armor comforts you.

[Armok]

Do we still have the Voice?

[lordnincompoop]

No. That was only a temporary storyline thing anyway.

[Darkness3313]

OH NO! We lost our inventory slot!
>Search endlessly for inventory slot.
(But seriously)
>Check inventory.

[Nivim]

 Heh, for me it wasn't a loss of interest, but that all the commands I wanted had been posted. I was waiting for you to make an update with him jumping off into the darkness.

> Look for any other details in the room.

[lordnincompoop]

> Check inventory.

You seem to have lost your pack. Perhaps you will find it later.

> Look for any other details in the room.

Other than the doors and the arrow on the floor, there doesn't seem to be much. The walls are made of some smooth grey stone, and there are no bumps or dents that you can find. You look a bit closer, and you manage to notice a hole in the wall behind you, large enough to allow your hand to pass through.


What do you do?

((Glad to see I still have players. ))

[Nivim]

 You will always have players at Bay12. Whether you want them is up to you.

> Look into the hole.
> Listen carefully all around.
> Glyph of balls + expansion in the hole.

[James.Denholm]

> Poke the expensive sword into the hole in the wall.

Because, after all, it could be a horrible, horrible trap.

Edit: Actually, what about:

> "Cast" the expansion glyph at/on the hole, with the intent of increasing the size of the hole to something that can be walked through.

The interesting thing, of course, would be to see if the glyph would expand the hole, or the materials surrounding the hole. Would the magic recognise the concept of the hole?

On second thoughts, poking would be simpler.

[lordnincompoop]

> Look into the hole.

You see darkness. The hole smells fishy; slightly like herrings.

> Listen carefully all around.

You hear nothing, except a slight wind coming from the hole.

> Poke the expensive sword into the hole in the wall.

You poke the sword in, and it comes out unchanged (if a bit damp).

> "Cast" the expansion glyph at/on the hole, with the intent of increasing the size of the hole to something that can be walked through.

Summoning up your powers, you attempt to cast a Glyph of Expansion upon the door. (Magic: Glyphs) (Glyph of Expansion) (100-20=80) (80<10+80) (Failure!)

Your spell moves from your hand onto the wall, but it simply dies there. The material seems to be very resistant to magic.

[Nivim]

 That roll seems contrived to show us just how futile the act is.

> Open the door opposite the directed one, prepared to slam it closed in case of anything.

[Blargityblarg]

Red herring, perhaps?

Jam hand into hole. Flip bird to anyone/thing on other side.

[/notreally]

What Nivm said, but have sword out and ready to swing as well.

[lordnincompoop]

> Open the door opposite the directed one, prepared to slam it closed in case of anything.

You open the door. It leads to another room similar to the first, but the arrow now points forward, the lighting is more reddish, and there is a pumpkin in the middle of the room.

[Ottofar]

>Inspect Pumpkin.

[lordnincompoop]

> Inspect Pumpkin.

What pumpkin?
