(140) You reach the bottom of the stairway and take a moment to get your bearings. You seem to have descended to a leisure area. An elegant pool table stands to your right, with the balls neatly racked on the surface and a couple of cues crossed together at the head. A shuffleboard table stands off to your left, while a table containing a marble chessboard completely set up and ready for play stands behind you. The hall continues ahead of you, adorned with a closed door on either side. It winds to the left beyond that. Choose your next course of action. Will you: Examine the pool table? (317) Walk over to the chessboard? (194) Examine the shuffleboard table? (390) Leave the game area, and open the door on the left (357) or the right (238)? Or simply ignore everything and follow the hall around to the left (90)? (194) The chessboard is beautiful. Handcrafted crystal pieces line the blue and black marble board. It is obviously worth a fortune. The Count may be the human embodiment of pure evil, but he does have pretty good taste. You are almost tempted snatch a piece for yourself; but suddenly, one of the pawns moves two spaces ahead of its own accord! After everything else you"ve seen in this house, you aren't very surprised. But what will you do? Counter with a move of your own (303) or ignore the board and investigate the pool table (317) or the shuffleboard (390). If you"ve already investigated everything, or you choose to ignore the remaining areas, you may open the door on the left (357) or the door on the right (238). To leave this area and follow the hall as it winds to the left, go (90) |
It seems like this room is only about games where we are the 'pawns'. To the left door and depending on what we get there, to the right door afterwards.
left turn Clyde!

(357) This door opens up into a small room full of ceramic figures. They resemble clowns and fools, dressed in all manners of outlandish outfits. The largest one, standing at about 3 feet, is at the rear of the room. It is dressed in white pantaloons, a checkerboard shirt, and suspenders. The expression frozen on its face is somewhat disturbing - a kind of maniacal smile. Its hands are outstretched, palms up, as if expecting something. As you step closer, you spot the word "offerings" etched into its forehead. On its shirt, a continuation of the message has been carved out, although a good portion is illegible: ""¦you"¦rewarded"¦manner." Now, will you leave the room (393) or place one of your items on its hands as an "offering" (338)? |
