You wake up in a puddle

You wake up in a puddle and have no idea how you got here. Bastion is smoggy, hot, and rainy all at once. [[Stay in the puddle->Somebody throws a brick at you]] <% var r = roll(1,6); %> <%= "[[Get up and explore->" + get_page_by_tag('page-' + r) + "]]" %>

Your reflection looks back at you before leaping out of the puddle and attacking you. <% monster = {str: player.str, max_dmg: player.max_dmg, name: "your reflection" }; player.last_location = get_page_by_tag("page-2"); %> [[Attack->Combat]]

You pass a drinking fountain, and it smells real bad. <% r = roll(1,6) + 10; %> <%= "[[" + get_page_by_tag("page-" + r) + "<-Drink some.]]" %> [[The Sun's out<-Wander off.]]

A voice comes from a sewer hole. You look down and it's yourself, but horribly warty and green. They throw a brick at you for and flee. <% dmg = roll(1,6); player.str -= dmg; %> You take <%= dmg %> point<%= (dmg > 1) ? "s" : "" %> of damage (your remaining STR: <%= player.str %>). <% if (player.str < 1) { %> [[You don't feel so good.->The White Room]] <% } else { %> <% r = roll(1,6) + 4 %> <%= "[[Continue->" + get_page_by_tag("page-" + r) + "]]" %> <% } %>

Somebody throws a brick at you from the rooftop! <% dmg = roll(1,6); player.str -= dmg; %> You take <%= dmg %> point<%= (dmg > 1) ?

You're drawn into a coffee shop by the smell of percolation. Poets are shouting at each other. [[Order coffer->The last of your money]] [[Explore other shops->Lights in the sky grow brighter]]

The Sun's out. [[Take a walk->Feeling pretty good]] <%= "[[Run for cover->" + get_page_by_tag("page-" + (roll(1,6) + 18)) + "]]" %>

It starts raining really hard. [[Stay out in the rain->The sound of rain]] <%= "[[Run for cover->" + get_page_by_tag("page-" + (roll(1,6) + 18)) + "]]" %>

You've found your way home, but it's on fire! Too late to save anything. Oh well. <%= "[[Continue->" + get_page_by_tag("page-" + (player.seen_home_fire ? "26" : "8") ) + "]]" %> <% player.seen_home_fire = true %>

A bit of your face turns to stone and falls off. <% if (player.seen_petrification) { %> [[Continue->The White Room]] <% } else { %> <%= "[[Continue->" + get_page_by_tag("page-" + (roll(1,6) + 18)) + "]]" %> <% player.seen_petrification = true %> <% } %>

<% dmg = roll(1,4); player.str -= dmg %> Argh! It had a poop in it! You vomit and take <%= dmg %> point<%= (dmg > 1) ?

You get x-ray vision for a minute and then it passes. <%= "[[Continue->" + get_page_by_tag("page-" + (roll(1,6) + 18)) + "]]" %>

There's an alien voice. <%= "[[Ignore it->" + get_page_by_tag("page-" + (roll(1,6) + 18)) + "]]" %> [[Answer it->Lights in the sky grow brighter]]

A clump of skin falls off your face. <%= "[[Poke at it->" + get_page_by_tag("page-11") + "]]" %> <%= "[[Continue->" + get_page_by_tag("page-" + (roll(1,6) + 18)) + "]]" %>

Pretty tasty. Like a peach. [[Continue->Feeling pretty good]]

<% dmg = roll(1,6); player.str -= dmg %> The sound of the rain on the rooftops is pretty soothing, until lightning strikes the ground next to you and a gutter pipe falls down and whacks you on the head for <%= dmg %> point<%= (dmg > 1 ?

A begger on the street has a froggy head, he looks pretty pitiful. You probably can beat him up. <% monster = { str: 5, max_dmg: 4, name: "a beggar", }; player.last_location = get_page_by_tag("page-19"); %> [[Attack the begger->Combat]] [[Toss him a coin->The last of your money]]

After a moment of blackness, you travel down dark hallway to an illuminated archway. You fear what lies ahead of you, but you cannot turn back. With a shudder, your old life sloughes off and you speed towards an unknown country. _YOU HAVE DIED_ <%= show_final_score() %> [[Start again->It begins]]

<% initialize() %> Your character has a Strength (STR) attribute of: <%= player.str %> You currently have no weapons but <%= player.weapon_description %>. In combat, you and your opponate alternate attacks. Attacks always hit, but do a variable amount of damage depending on the weapon. Damage is subtracted from the target's STR.
