[This is an experimental simulation of a conversation with a dragon,]

[If you don't already know, communicate with the dragon with plain ]

Tell me more ...

It seems like you have been wandering through these dark tunnels for years.
They hadn't seemed so bad when you and your companions had entered the deserted
mine, led by a rumour that the Hero's Crown might have come to rest here. But
you have been seperated from your friends by a rockslide, and have ended up
following narrow passages and shafts leading forever downwards. You are out of
food, too, and your stomach is grumbling. You break out of your thoughts,
noticing that the light from your torch is no longer reflecting off of damp,
rough-hewn walls. Instead, the flickering light of the torch is swallowed up by
the darkness of some sort of large cavern. You glance back over your shoulder,
and realize you can no longer tell where you entered the cavern. Putting aside
your misgivings, you begin to stride forwards once more. All at once a
sibilant voice comes out of nowhere, filling your head without a sound being
made.

The voice says:
Well, well, a visitor. It has been a long time since anyone has come down this
way.

You say: Hello Maur

The voice says:
Greetings, human... or perhaps I should call you... lunch.

You say: Why do you want to eat me

The voice says:
I had a few giant mountain goats last week, and I am beginning to feel hungry
again.

You say: Do mountain goats taste good

The voice says:
Enough of your ceaseless chatter, human! I begin to long for silence! (You
hear a great inrush of air, and take a few steps backwards. Maur's eyes stay
fixed on you, and then, before you can turn to run, he opens his mouth and
exhales. A great wind buffets you, hot enough that you can feel your hair
begin to crinkle and your skin begins to sting. The air smells hard and
metallic. Then there is a great blast of heat and flame, flame white as
lightning and hotter than any forge, enveloping you. Then an explosion of pain
hits you, and you know no more...)

(You have died.)

You say: fuck you

You are rather rude for a miserable little human. Do you really want me to eat
you?

You say: do you really want to eat me? i am rather bad to eat i am afraid

Yes... My last visitor was one of those Northerners. That must have been...
certainly forty of what you call years. He actually tried to attack me...
naturally I incinerated him on the spot.

You say: well i will not be so tasty

Well, I'll just have to find out, won't I? (In the faint light of the cavern
you see the dragon's head rear up high above you. He pauses for a brief
instant, regarding you with his baleful red eyes. Then, faster than any snake,
his head whips down and you get a fleeting impression of a huge mouth opening,
filled with row upon row of foot-long needle-sharp teeth... and then the mouth
closes.)

(You have died.)

pretty clever! damn you renegade!

also heres some hints that might help
1. beg for mercy
2. start an intelligent conversation
(grab a barf bag for the next one)
3. try to charm the dragon into bed with you
4. get his icq number
5. ask him if hes gay
6. talk about politics

i know those are pretty stupid but things like these, you just never know. i hope i just cracked a few people up by now.

renegade- plz! instructions.

telnet debra.dgbra.doc.ca 3000
^^^ host ^^^ port

make sure the host above is the one I put, I can't remember and I'm replying right after waking up.

To answer your question fatbitch, I've held a 15 minute, very smooth discussion. It was very astonishing when Maur replied to every one of my clever attempts with a rebuttal.

... yea, sure- what the hell.

hey renegade, thanks man- i kept putting dbgt.. too much anime

tell him your name, ask him why not many people visit there, and .. possible ask for some time on this. thats what im getting at so far.

you is behind a firewall?

You'll have to speak to your sysadmin to free the port - chance of it happening: slim to fuckall.
