The Computer Room
You stand in a relatively dark room with stale air. You see several
bottles and cans littering the table and floor around you. Before you,
on the desk, is a box like you've never seen... Perhaps from a
different realm.
[Exits: none]

silently ponder the uses of such a portal.

You can't take that.
You hear a click as you poke at the box.

Suddenly, as the box goes dark, another creature jumps at you!
You yell 'Help! My Carrion Fields Addiction is trying to kill me... OR WORSE!!'
Your Carrion Fields Addiction is unaffected by your burning touch.
Your Carrion Fields Addiction utters the words, 'eid annug uoy'.
Your Carrion Fields Addiction is forcing you back into reality!
Reality does UNSPEAKABLE things to you.
You have been KILLED!
You turn into an invincible ghost for a few minutes.
As long as you don't attack anything.
You feel some of your vitality drain out of you with this death.
