comment |
The Meteor, the Stone and a Long Glass of Sherbet is a 1996 Interactive Fiction game by Graham Nelson (under the Pen Name Angela M. Horns).You play as an ambassador visiting the Northlands as the guest of the Empress. You start the game trapped on a terribly boring elephant ride with your chatterbox tour guide, Lady Amilia, and you're desperate to get away.The setting is based on the Zork universe.You can play it here. |

The Cameo: Casting 'azzev' in the treehouse shows that J. R. R. Tolkien was a visitor there at some point in the past. |

comment |
Spell Book: You use a spell book to perform magic by learning spells from its pages. Simply reading a copy of a spell isn't enough — the magic of the spell book itself is vital to the learning process. |
