Starting out

Inspecting Pirate Pete

• Player: How would I go about protecting this nautical fellow from the curse of the culinaromancer then?
• Aris: Hmmm... Wait a moment, my fortune-teller-sense is tingling...
• Player: Erm... okay...
• Aris: Ah yes. To immunise him from the culinaromancer's attack, you will need to feed him fishcakes.
• Player: Fishcakes? What, like chocolate cake with fish instead of chocolate?
• Aris: No... Like small bread crumbed fishy delicacies.
• Player: Um... So how would I make those then?
• Aris: I don't know. I am a fortune-teller, not a cook.
• Aris: I don't suppose it occurred to you to ask the actual cook in the room right next door to us?
• Player: Ooooh yeah... I'll be right back!
• (End of dialogue)

• Cook: I'm just glad you were around, who knows WHAT could have happened if you weren't able to help us!
• Player: I'm sorry, I don't have any clue what you...
• Player: Oh. Oh, right. This must be part of that whole time-bubble thing that Aris told me about.
• Player: So the cook outside of the bubble remembers me having already saved the council members even though I haven't actually gone and done it yet...
• Player: Gah! This time travel stuff makes my head hurt!
• Player: So... I don't suppose you can remember exactly how I defeated him can you?

Asking about giant crabs

Talking to Murphy

• Select an Option
• Talk about Recipe for Disaster.
  • Player: Murphy, what can you tell me about giant crabs?
  • Murphy: Giant Crabs? Why, I used to haul up a few of those whenever I set my nets around Rimmington.
  • Murphy: Why the interest?
  • Player: I need to get some Giant Crab Meat and Kelp. Can you tell me where I can get some?
  • Murphy: Well, the only thing I can think to do is to go down there and look to see if there are any left.
  • Player: Go down there? What do you mean?
  • Murphy: As in under the water!
  • Murphy: Tell me, can you get your hands on a fishbowl?
  • Player: I'm sure I will be able to if I put my mind to it, why do you ask?
  • Murphy: Well, I know how to rig up a handy set of breathing gear that can allow you to keep air inside the fishbowl.
  • Murphy: You just put the barrel of air on your back, with the fishbowl over your head, and then dive over the side.
  • Murphy: It should hold enough air to keep you alive for quite some time.
  • Player: That sounds pretty dangerous...
  • Murphy: Not at all. I'll even weigh anchor with the chain somewhere easy to reach so you can climb out easily enough if you run into trouble.
  • Player: I'm still not happy about this...
  • Murphy: Well, I can't think of any other way to check. If you come up with a better plan then feel free to tell me.
  • Murphy: In the meantime I'll wait, and if you want me to take you diving I'll be ready.
  • Murphy: By the way, why are you so interested in crabs all of a sudden?
  • Player: I can't tell you I'm afraid. The very fabric of space and time could collapse!
  • Murphy: O...k...

        • Murphy: We arrived at that number through trial and error, and the errors were not pretty let me assure you.
        • Player: So what can I do?
        • Murphy: Well, if you pop over to a bank and leave all your heavy equipment behind then I'll take you out.
