ME:Unknown 2950 Riddle From: prt1@merlin.etsu.edu (Philip R Tripp) Date: Thu, 27 Apr 1995 00:00:00 +0000 My low-level emissary just got this encounter in the Mordor region. Any clues? <character> was hastening to take cover from a sudden and unseasonal storm when she came across an overgrown (or perhaps hidden!) path. Daring the unexpected opportunity as a welcome respite from the foul weather, she followed the path, finding it to be both narrow and broken. After a brief but difficult trek, she was relieved to enter the small, hidden cave found at the path's end. To her surprise, the cave provided not only shelter from the weather but also an interesting discovery. In the center of the cave was an oblong block of dark stone, engulfed in a faint transparent blue light that covered the entire surface. Upon the stone lay something that did not shine, but attracted her attentino nonetheless. The cave seemed almost to be calling her. She couldn't tell what it was, and certainly the item there was a powerful artifact, she thought, but how might one breach the possible protections? attack PHYSICALLY to drive off any gaurdians attack MAGICALLY to dispel any wards Creep forward silently and REMOVE the item from the stone block Leap forward and STEAL the item from the stone block WAIT and see if the shimmering light goes out Declare your ALLEGIANCE Say _________ FLEE If no response from the net seems appropriate, I will respond WAIT not really caring what happens to my green emissary. Look for what happens two weeks from today... -- +----------------------------+-------------------------------------------+ | Philip R.
