Nicely done. Nicely done indeed.
You defeat the ghastly poltergoose. It lies dead at your feet, and as you wonder if it has any pockets you can rifle through, its ethereal corpse disappears with a hideous hiss.
But wait! It’s left something behind.
💎 Congrats! You’ve found some loot 💎
Ghost Fork
If you were paying attention to the song, you’d understand that poltergeese love cutlery, and this one was no exception. On the floor is a magic Ghost Fork, which you can stab enemies with. When using the Fork as a weapon, it does the standard 2 points of damage for every successful attack. But if you roll a 6 with either of your attack dice, it does an extra 2 points of damage. It doesn’t stack, so if you roll double six it’s still a total of 2 extra damage points. Better than Winston’s crappy Tiny Sword though, if you’re still using that.
Spell: REWIND
Spell; Rewind. This one is such a doozy that you can only use it once, and then you forget it forever. Cast this spell to go back in time 5 minutes or so. Use it in the following conditions – it enables you to click the back button in your browser, whatever that might be, if you don’t like the outcome of the option you chose. If you encountered a demon, for example. It also enables you to resurrect if you are beaten in a fight. If you use it to resurrect, you simply start the fight again at the beginning with the same amount of health as you had when the fight began. Only useable by Florence, of course!
With the Ghost Fork and/or Rewind spell jingling in your pocket, you continue on down the passageway. After a while, you reach a dead end.
Or so you thought. After slapping the wall in frustration, a magic doorway appears with a gigantic rumble that shakes the ground. You go through it, and find yourself in a passageway. To your left, the way is blocked by a cave-in that your wall slapping must have caused. So you turn right, and head towards an area with a lizard statue.
