Realistic or Modern A Game Of Life And Death

(Sorry for not posting sooner was a bit busy, also happy Halloween great time for wandering in haunted houses! Anyway Choice 3 was picked with 2 votes!)


[COLOR= rgb(0, 0, 0)]There is an elegantly-carved, wooden writing desk here. It looks old, but aside from being dusty, it was obviously well-kept. On it, sits a small stack of books, none of which really interest you.[/COLOR][COLOR= rgb(0, 0, 0)]Beside the books is a smaller stack of blank papers. Behind the stack of papers is an empty ink bottle and a small assortment of writing quills. Most of the quills are made from bird feathers, as is tradition, but you're surprised to find that one of the quills was never made into a pen and is ... apparently from a porcupine.[/COLOR][COLOR= rgb(0, 0, 0)]Well, it's kind of a bizarre thing to carry around, but you consider taking it with you.[/COLOR]


1. Take the quill


2. Leave it behind and continue looking around the library.
 
(Choice 1 was chosen with 1 vote!)


You decide to take the quill, you may never know what you may possibly use it for.


[Quill added to your inventory]


But nonetheless, you outta be using this time for something else that is useful in this library, unless you consider the rest of the place useless and want to go back to the living room without having not checked everything out.


1. Look through the book shelves


2. Check the table


3. Go back to the living room


4. Check your inventory
 
(Choice 2 was chosen with 2 votes!)


[COLOR= rgb(0, 0, 0)]You look over the dark wood table and the books on it with mild interest. A lot of the books are old and thick, with worn-looking covers and fingerprint marks on them. You do not recognize any of the titles and some of them are not in English. One, you think, may have been written in Gaelic. Another, in French. A third, Russian. One looks like it's from Korea. Another, perhaps, Africa? Whoever owned this house obviously did some traveling. While you may be inclined to read them, you decide against pilfering one of the books--that would be rude.  [/COLOR][COLOR= rgb(0, 0, 0)](Never mind the fact that you fully intend to steal several other items from the house later on. And already have you selfish assholes.)[/COLOR][COLOR= rgb(0, 0, 0)] You also spy a candy dish with peppermints in it and consider taking one or two with you, since they were clearly set out for guests to enjoy.[/COLOR]


 


1. Take the peppermint 



2. Read the book on the top of the stack.


3. Examine the rest of the Library


4. Look underneath the table


5. Check inventory
 
(Since there was no general consensus on the decision most recent vote will be the deciding one, take that as a note for the future, so 4 is the selected choice)


[COLOR= rgb(0, 0, 0)]You get down on your hands and knees and look under the table. Aside from the dust bunnies you expected to see lying around, you see another stack of books. They're all different colors and a couple of the titles do, in fact, look familiar....[/COLOR]


1.Look around the library some more.


2. Pull out the black book


3. Pull out the red book


4. Pull out the green book


5. Pull out the gold book


6. Pull out the blue book
 
(Option 1 was chosen due to being most recent response)


You determined it would be unimportant to take or read any of the books under the table.


Now, you have just about finished scouring the library the only thing left are the shelves. Unless you want to just leave and go back to the main living room.


1. Check bookshelf


2. Go back to living room


3. Check inventory
 
(Choice 1 was selected with 2 votes!)


The bookshelf that catches your eye is filled with works all by the same author. That's interesting. The other interesting part is that all the books have a space between them where it looks like another book could go. Maybe this is just your kindergarten training of "fit the square in the square hole, fit the triangle in the triangle hole," but you kind of want to fill in those blank spaces. Or, at least one of them. The holes are between four pairs of books. 



The Two Gentlemen of Verona

The Taming of the Shrew  



The Comedy of Errors

The Life and Death of King John



 Hamlet

 Othello



King Lear

 Macbeth



Which space do you want to fill? And, what with? (Need item in inventory. And you were just so smart to ask to open up the inventory as well)


[Your inventory consists of: Your School backpack, the dirty photograph, and the quill. Inside your backpack you find, change, a water bottle, cash, a flashlight, your (Heavy) Text books, and A Midsummer Nights Dream which is the book you are reading in school]
 


1. The space between the first pair and with item of your choice


2. The space between the second pair and with item of your choice


3. The space between the third pair and with item of your choice


4. The space between the fourth pair and with item of your choice


5. Go back
 
(I am just going to say that those books back there were only meant to be a short reading thing, I had no intention for them to mean anything truly. So to save you some trouble we are going to do option 3, unfortunately that brings up another complication...)


You place "A Midsummer Night's Dream" between the third pair of books. The bookshelf shakes and rumbles. You stare, confused. Did you trip a hidden switch...? The shelf continues to rattle for another minute until... a large, heavy book from the top shelf falls on your head, effectively cracking your skull.



Your body crumples to the floor and is gradually buried in a pile of books, enshrining you in a papery tomb.

(Rest In Papers. Yes, for all your efforts, your only reward is a splitting headache. Life is not a guessing game, my friend, and you just failed that one because this quest has puzzles in it! But don't worry! This is but one of many wrong endings that lead to your death! And don't worry because I want you guys to see this through all the way to the end besides this is a quite anti-climatic death to end on, so you get to continue this perilous journey! Btw this isn't even denting the main plot points, so let us take it from the top with you guys having the newly found hindsight NOT to put the book in the third pair of books btw hint to solve the puzzle, figure out the order of which the plays were written. now LET'S TAKE IF FROM THE TOP GENTLEMEN)

1. The space between the first pair


2. The space between the second pair


3. The space between the third pair (Killed you last time)


4. The space between the fourth pair
 
(Choice 1 was chosen with 2 votes! But once again that was wrong and you die the same way, not going to repeat it again. Now it has been narrowed down to two choices)


2. Between the second pair


4. Between the fourth pair


(If you fail again, I will simply tell you the right choice, and then go along like that.)
