This rare book contains the notes of a skilled adventurer and describes everything about this dungeon. This is pure gold!
For example: this evil eye on the front door shoots deadly fireballs to ward off unauthorized visitors.
But if you carefully approach it from the side, out of view...
Pepper
...and then cover the eye with a hat...
Sound
Poof!
Pepper
...the door should open by itself!
They even recommend leaving the hat in place to make an easier escape! Books are so great!
Writing
“Jump directly over the first balcony.”
Pepper
OK!
Writing
“You may notice a falling sensation. This is normal. This is a shortcut.”
Sound
BOING
BOING
Writing
“Enjoy the comfort of the illuminated web without any risk: these spiders are photosynthetic and feed off of the reflected light.”
“I recommend a quick nap to restore all your strength.”
Pepper
I so love books!
Pepper
Oh, Carrot; I know how much cats don't like to get wet.
Don't worry! Books are also good for that!
And in less than ten minutes from entering the dungeon, I'm sitting in the treasure room picking leaves off of the rare Water-Tree. Books are magical!
Writing
“Pick up a feather along the way.”
Pepper
There's no lack of feathers here!
Writing
“Because you took the shortcut you should now be entering the room of The Guardian.”
Pepper
Hmm... the big boss?!? But where?
AH HA... Found you!
Sound
tickle tickle
Pepper
Pfff...! Too easy when you know the weak point!
Sound
Shkrrkrr!
Pepper
Aha! Here's the exit!
Sound
Wooop!
Pepper
?!
Ewww... I'm sure there's something in here about a way to remove this “thing”...
Carrot... Can you read it?
Mm... of course you can't... Meh...
I KNEW IT!!! It was too good to be true! Grrr!!!
Maybe books can't handle every situation after all...
Sound
Paf!
Pepper
...unless
YAAAAAAAA!!!
Sound
POW!
Pepper
Nope, it's true; for every situation... ...books are great!
