MESSAGE 1
Is this acceptable?
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 2
A little dwarf with a big knife blocks your way.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 3
A little dwarf just walked around a corner, saw you, threw a little axe at you
which missed, cursed, and ran away.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 4
There is a threatening little dwarf in the room with you!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 5
A sharp, nasty knife is thrown at you!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 6
The knife just misses you by inches!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 7
The knife is thrown very accurately and gets you in the middle of the chest!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 8
A hollow voice says "Plugh".
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 9
The knife bounces harmlessly off your magic cloak.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 10
A burley troll steps out from beneath the bridge and blocks your way. "You
must give me something of great value or I won't let you cross my bridge. Pay
up or return from whence you came!", he says grumpily.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 11
A voice booms out, "Leave it alone!"
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 12
A voice booms out, "That word doesn't work here!"
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 13
The batteries in your lamp are growing weaker. They will only last for #VAR1#
more turns!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 14
I'm game. Would you care to explain how?
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 15
The magazine disappears in a puff of green smoke as it hits the ground. A
loud voice echoes through the cave, "Well done!"
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 16
It is now pitch dark. If you proceed you will likely fall into a pit.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 17
The cave will close in #VAR3# turns!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 18
With a giant running leap, you sail up and over the chasm! Unfortunately,
however, you don't sail over ALL of the chasm. You fall for a long time
before landing on the rocks that litter the floor of the pit far below.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 19
The bird is frightened right now and you cannot catch it no matter what you
try. Perhaps you might try later.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 20
Going that way would require getting VERY close to the snake! I'm sorry, but
I just can't allow it. For your own good, you can't go that way.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 21
You can't kill the snake, or drive it away, or avoid it, or anything like
that. There is a way to get by, but you don't have the necessary resources
right now.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 22
You can't read in the dark!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 23
You fell into a pit and broke every bone in your body!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 24
You are already carrying the $noun$, dummy!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 25
You can't possibly be serious!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 26
The bird was unafraid when you entered, but as you approach it becomes
disturbed and you cannot catch it.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 27
You can catch the bird, but you cannot carry it.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 28
Use just one word, i.e., just "$NOUN$".
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 29
Sorry, but you don't have the necessary resources to $verb$ the
$noun$!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 30
The little bird attacks the green snake, and in an astounding flurry drives
the snake away.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 31
You don't have any keys!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 32
It doesn't have a lock, so it cannot be locked or unlocked!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 33
The $noun$ is already unlocked!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 34
The $noun$ is already locked!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 35
OK. The $noun$ is now locked!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 36
OK. The $noun$ is now unlocked!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 37
Sorry, but your batteries are dead and there is no way to turn on the lamp.
You could be in real trouble!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 38
Sorry, but you have no source of light!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 39
Your lamp is now shining brightly!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 40
Your lamp is now off.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 41
There is no way to get past the bear to unlock the chain, which is probably
just as well.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 42
Nothing happens.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 43
You now have the cage with the bird in it. The bird has stopped singing.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 44
However, it didn't break.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 45
The little bird is now dead. Its body disappears.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 46
Attacking the snake both doesn't work and is very dangerous.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 47
You killed a little dwarf.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 48
You attack a little dwarf, but he dodges out of the way.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 49
With what? Your bare hands?
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 50
Good try, but that is an old worn-out magic word.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 51
Carefully, you climb down the beanstalk to the bottom of the pit -- far below.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 52
It misses!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 53
Quickly, you scamper across the bridge -- before the troll returns.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 54
You pet the bear affectionately and tickle it under its chin and behind its
ears. It seems very happy and licks your hand (UGH!). The bear likes you and
will follow you anywhere. (Lucky you!)
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 55
You can't lock or unlock the keys. You have to LOCK or UNLOCK something WITH
THE KEYS!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 56
You have crawled around in some small passages and wound up back where you
started in the first place.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 57
I don't know where the cave is, but hereabouts no stream can run on the
surface for very long. I would try the stream.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 58
You put the cage (with the bird in it) on the ground. The bird has stopped
singing.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 59
I can only tell you what you see as you move about and manipulate things. I
cannot tell you where remote things are.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 60
You just barely manage to squeeze through the tunnel into the next room.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 61
As you say the magic word, you are instantly transported to ...
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 62
Are you trying to get into the cave?
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 63
The grate is very solid and has a hardened steel lock. You cannot enter
without a key, and there are no keys nearby. I would recommend looking
elsewhere for the keys.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 64
The trees of the forest are large hardwood oak and maple, with an occasional
grove of pine or spruce. There is quite a bit of undergrowth, largely birch
and ash saplings plus nondescript bushes of various sorts. This time of year
visibility is quite restricted by all the leaves, but travel is quite easy if
you detour around the spruce and berry bushes.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 65
As you finish speaking the magic phrase, you feel a slight earth tremor. Then
after a moment of silence, a strange voice echoes through the cave -- "They
have been returned to their rightful place!"
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 66
Digging without a shovel is quite impractical. Even with a shovel progress is
unlikely.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 67
To $verb$ the $noun$ requires dynamite.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 68
I'm as confused as you are.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 69
Mist is a white vapor, usually water. Seen from time to time in caverns. It
can be found anywhere but is often a sign of a deep pit leading down to water.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 70
Your feet are now wet.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 71
I think I just lost my appetite.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 72
Thank you. It was delicious!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 73
You have taken a drink from the stream. The water tastes strongly of
minerals, but is not unpleasant. It is extremely cold.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 74
The bottle of water is now empty.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 75
Rubbing the electric lamp is not particularly rewarding. Anyway, nothing
exciting happens.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 76
Peculiar. You $verb$ the $noun$ for a while, but nothing unexpected
happens.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 77
Your bottle is empty and the ground is wet.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 78
You can't $verb$ that. It is just not allowed!
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 79
You catch the bird and put it inside the wicker cage.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 80
Please tell me which way to go in order to $verb$ the $noun$.
END_MESSAGE
MESSAGE 81
Unfortunately, the lock
