Enter the generator room, slowly, using my lighter for light (duh).

You enter the dark room. It is 40 feet by 20 feet, with the long side north-south. You can see a large generator in the center of the room, and a panel in the wall near the generator. The Generator takes up much of the space on the southern half of the room, blocking access to the rest of it. On the northeast end of the room is a large puddle. Because the room is so dark, you will need to examine things more closely to learn more about it.

Note that you are now using lighter fluid.

[Splitpersonality]

Avoid the puddle at ALL costs while moving about the room.

Investigate the panel.

Avoid the puddle at ALL costs while moving about the room.

Investigate the panel.

The panel seems to be a junction box, containing several large thick cables. there are two cables which are ripped apart, and are no longer able to touch each other. One cable leads through the wall and into the hallway, and the other cable leads to the generator. You have not touched the cables yet.

[Splitpersonality]

I can assume then that the wire leads to the other room.


Attempt to use the wire hanger as a connecting bridge between the two disconnected cables.

If this fails, leave the room, if it succeeds, leave the room.

Strangely, the wire hangers seem to be made out of a non-conducting metal.

You have left the room, and are back in the south hallway.

[Splitpersonality]

Slowly enter the east room, opening the door and attempting to use the hallway's light to my sighted advantage before having to use the lighter.


If it is terribly horrible and disgusting I will run away flailing like a small child.

[Double A]

We need a weapon. Maybe we can find a wooden thing and light the puddle on fire to use it as a torch, assuming the puddle is gas and not water or pee.

You grab the handle of door in the east room, and find that it is locked!

[Splitpersonality]

Throw my hands in the air in frustration and let out an exasperated sigh.

Then mosey down the hall and check out that corpse, see what's going on with him.

Then mosey down the hall and check out that corpse, see what's going on with him.

The corpse is lying on the ground, bloody and lifeless. The corpse has no head, it seems to have been torn from his body. The corpse is wearing clothes that would seem to indicate that he is a cook or a chef, as it is stained with grease and food particles. He's also wearing a pair of gloves, which are covered in blood.

[Splitpersonality]

Take the gloves and put them on, look at the panel that is in this hallway.

[Double A]

They're covered in blood. Any bonus to gripping things would slip away.

And they'll probably infect you with an alien virus or something.

You are now wearing the bloody gloves.

The panel contains a keypad with the digits 1 through 9, and an "enter" key. The display is not lit. Nothing happens when you push the buttons.

[Splitpersonality]

Okay so the generator is wired to this panel, and the other door is locked.

Roll the corpse over and serach him thoroughly for items.


What material are gloves made out of, rubber?

Correct, except for the break in the circuit.

Correct.

Roll the corpse over and serach him thoroughly for items.

The cook has nothing else.

What material are gloves made out of, rubber?

They feel like rubber to you, so you conclude they are.

[Splitpersonality]

Re-enter the generator room, turn the light on to get my bearings, then extinguish it once I know where the puddle is.


Move myself slowly through the darkness to the puddle and smell it, attempting to detect what exactly it is. Do not touch it, except for with the gloves if necessary.

Once concluded what it is, or not, back away from the puddle slowly, and turn the light on again.

Re-enter the generator room, turn the light on to get my bearings, then extinguish it once I know where the puddle is.

It is in the northeast corner of the room, roughly 10 feet wide. You use the lighter to determine its boundary, and then shut it off.

Move myself slowly through the darkness to the puddle and smell it, attempting to detect what exactly it is. Do not touch it, except for with the gloves if necessary.

The puddle smells like nothing in particular. No smell of gas or other fumes.

You don't know exactly what it is, in the dark.

Once concluded what it is, or not, back away from the puddle slowly, and turn the light on again.

You back away and switch your lighter back on. You can see that there is a black cable running from one side of the puddle to the other, held against the wall by metal bands that are bolted firmly down. However, the rubber casing of the cable has worn out, and the cable is severed once it reaches the puddle. Then it continues along the other wall, with similar worn out rubber and exposed metallic ends.

The puddle seems to be formed in the floor, which seems unfinished in this room, or worn down somehow. At the center of the puddle is an object that you cannot see at this distance. It is submerged in the puddle.

[Splitpersonality]

Hold the lighter firm with one hand, and approach the puddle.

Attempt to ascertain what is in the bottom of the puddle.


If it seems useful/shiny, reach down with a gloved hand, being careful not to let the water touch any part of me but the glove, and grab the object.

Attempt to ascertain what is in the bottom of the puddle.

Through the clear liquid, you can see a rusty hammer at the bottom of the puddle.

If it seems useful/shiny, reach down with a gloved hand, being careful not to let the water touch any part of me but the glove, and grab the object.

The non-shiny objects of the world object to your prejudice against them.

You have now obtained the rusty hammer!



Woot fanfare

What do you do now?

[Splitpersonality]

Do the FF7 victory stance a la Cloud and his buster sword.


Go back to the previous hallway, to the room with the locked desk, and smash the lock with the rusty hammer.

You look totally awesome.

Go back to the previous hallway, to the room with the locked desk, and smash the lock with the rusty hammer.

You enter the room "Cell D" and attempt to open the desk lock. The lock does not budge, all you're doing is denting the lock. Something is missing here.

[Splitpersonality]

Use the back end of the hammer and attempt to wedge it loose.

You can't quite fit the end of the hammer in between the lock and the desk drawer, and even if you could, you can't generate enough force this way to break the lock.

[Splitpersonality]

Kick the desk in frustration.

Go to cell C and examine the entire room, including the cell.

[Double A]

Can we use the coat hangers on this one?

[Splitpersonality]

Probably not, there's a key jammed in the lock anyhow, and it's broken :/

I took the liberty of providing you a map of what you've seen so far.

Kick the desk in frustration.

Ow, that hurts.

Go to cell C and examine the entire room, including the cell.

You examine the south wall carefully. You find nothing of interest.

You examine the north wall carefully. You find nothing of interest.

You examine the east wall carefully. You find nothing of interest.

The desk is in the way of the west wall, so you examine the Cell next.

The door is rusty and only held shut due to the dent in the locking mechanism. It gives slightly. You might be able to move it.

[Splitpersonality]

Open the door.

It seems stuck. It moves slightly but then stops...
