> dodge the hammer blow, scramble up the hammer-shaft and jab the butcher knife straight into his black heart The mighty hammer Grond cleaves the air as it flies toward you! With a sudden burst of speed you dive out of the way of its cruel path! Still steady on your feet, you leap onto Grond's mighty head as Morgoth prepares a magical spell. Scrambling upward towards the Lord of Darkness's chest, you seize the butcher's knife, and stab, stab, stab... SNAP. > examine knife It seems to have shattered from the impact. Obviously it wasn't designed for slaying dark gods. Morgoth uses his twisted magic to smite you with a bolt of pure whoop-ass that kills you twenty times before you hit the ground. And once when you hit the ground. And a couple of times after that for good measure. Hold on.....as you encounter your death, your spirit floats out of your body and suddenly collapses, and as you fall helplessly to the ground, still in your ghostly state, you sparkle and glitter, and as you hit the ground (not that you feel it, for you're a ghost), your body starts to shimmer in all sorts of colours. Confusion reigns over you and asks you what is happening. Suddenly, your body starts disappearing, and in the confusion, you black out just as your head disappears. Sometime later, you open your eyes and find you're back in the nondescript room! Your spirit is back in your body, which remarkably has no scratches or marks from your previous encounter! Phew, you've survived another one of those untimely deaths! You give thanks to the narrator, your god, for keeping you alive and praise him for letting you restart without dying! Oh, to make sure it's the nondescript room, you'll have to look to see if the Grue's here. > look Oh, never mind, you got eaten by the Grue anyway.
