Hello, welcome,
salutations! I am the
Great Ananias (he offers
you a slight bow, with a
flourish). I bring
mysteries from near and
far friend. Mysteries
from a world beyond our
own... of the
Netherworld.
---
Come back to learn of the
Great Ananias' mysteries
of the Netherworld have
you?

Node003->Node999
Hmm, mysteries make me
sleep uneasily, I better
go. Goodbye.
Node014
I know things that mere
mortal man is not meant
to know. Aiiieeee!
Nyarloth...Oh, sorry
(heh, heh). Got a little
carried away
there for a moment. I
have tales of a Ghost
that haunts these very
grounds, as well as a
Jan-u-wine Egypt-ee-an
Mummy that you
can see, right here in
this marvelous
sarcophagus.
Node003->Node014
What kind of mysteries?
Node003->Node014
Uh, nice to meet you Mr.
Great Anus...something.

You see a short man with
a thick mustache.

You see the Great
Ananias.
description_p_proc
You see a short,
mustachioed, man with a
somewhat furtive look to
him.

No, my friend, a MUMMY!
Straight from the sands
of ancient Egypt to the
sands of the Wastes!
Exclusively for you to
see!
Node002->Node999
I've seen enough corpses
already. Goodbye.
Node007
For a person of your
obvious class I would be
happy to show this
unique, and historic,
specimen to you for a
mere $25.
Node002->Node007
OK, I'll bite. How much
to see the wizened
corpse?
Node002->Node007
(too yourself) Hmm, a
mummy would kinda
describe the way a ghoul
looks. OK, I'd like to
take a look -- how much?
Node007->Node999
I don't want to spend
that much. I think I'll
survive without seeing
the thing. Goodbye.
Node007a
Node007->Node007a
OK, I'll cough up the
dough. Now...Show Me The
Mummy!
Node014->Node999
I don't think I have any
more time to waste on
whatever it is that
you're hawking.
Node014->Node002
Tell me about the mummy.
I'm just dying to hear
more about that.
Node015
Well, you see, (he
motions you closer) there
was once a great queen
that ruled all of the
surrounding town. She
kept her
throne by virtue of a
special amulet that she
kept around her neck at
all times. Great stuff,
huh?
Node014->Node015
I've just got to hear
that ghost story. Uh, do
I get a nice hot cup of
cocoa to go with it?
Node004
Node005
Today, in the room
within, I have, for your
eyes exclusively...A
Jan-u-wine Egyptian
Mummy!
Node005->Node999
I don't have any interest
in that sort of thing.
Corpses scare me.
Node005->Node002
A mummy?
Node005->Node002
A mummy? Hmm, I wonder if
it could be.... No,
nobody could be that
stupid.
Node005->Node015
I think I'd rather hear
the ghost story.
Node015->Node999
OK. I think I've heard
just about enough.
Goodbye.
Node016
Well, I'll cut to the
chase then. So, the evil
wizard poisoned the young
princess and took her
amulet. She's been
wandering
around the room next
door ever since. Well,
uh, that is, just at the
witching hour, anyway.
That's why I keep the
door locked.
Pretty darn scary, huh?
Node015->Node016
Uh, yeah. You bet. So
this princess had a
*magic* amulet. Oh, do go
on. I just can't stand
this level of suspense
much longer (yawn).
Node008
Simply open the
sarcophagus lid and the
marvelous Mummy will be
revealed, in all its
ancient glory, to you.
But please, no touching,
and, uh, no flash
photography.
Node007a->Node008
Node009
There you go! The MUMMY!
(the door to the
sarcophagus swings open
to reveal a desiccated
corpse, that looks very
much like an ordinary
ghoul, standing in a
poorly painted, chipped
and cracked paper-mache
sarcophagus.)
---
There you go! Presenting,
the MUMMY! (a crypt-like
door swings open to
reveal a jan-u-wine
Egyptian mummy standing
in an open sarcophagus
that looks as though it's
made out of pure gold!)
Node008->Node009
Great.
Node009->Node999
That's a mummy? I can't
believe I just paid $25
to see a six-foot hunk of
jerky. Goodbye.
Node009->Node999
Wow, that's fantastic...I
guess. (you look at the
Mummy very intently for a
while). Uh, thanks,
Goodbye.
Node010
(the Mummy, snorts,
stretches languidly, and
then looks at you with a
sleepy blink to it's
eyes) Hello. (he says,
sleepily)
Node009->Node010
Hey, wait a minute.
That's not a Mummy.
That's a ghoul. WOODY!
Hey WOODY! Is that you?
Node011
I assure you that the
Mummy is, in fact, quite
jan-u-wine.
Node009->Node011
That sure looks like a
ghoul to me.
Node012
(Woody--for it is in fact
Woody, not a Mummy, that
stands somewhat drowsily
before you--grabs the
sides of the
paper-
mache sarcophagus, lets
out a shriek and runs for
the door, leaving a trail
of toilet-paper
'mummy-wrappings'
and a hasty "Thankee
kindly, Stranger!" behind
him.)
---
You woke up Woody the
ghoul and freed him from
indentured mummy-tude.
---
You see a short man with
a thick mustache.
---
You see the Great
Ananias.
Node010->Node012
Holy shit! That *is*
Woody! Run Woody, run for
it! Well, uh, gimp for it
then! Go Woody go!
Node011->Node999
Well, if you say so. But
I sure think it looks
like an ordinary ghoul.
Goodbye.
Node011->Node010
I don't think I believe
you. Let me try
something. WOODY! Hey
WOODY! Is that you?
Node013
(The Great Ananias
shrugs) I knew I should
have picked up that
mono-headed Brahmin
instead. Oh well, back to
the drawing board.
Node012->Node013
Hah! I knew it! You're
finished in this town.
You're not the Great
Ananias anymore, you're
just another ass.
Node012->Node013
Go Woody go! Ahah! I knew
it!
Node013->Node999
Mono-headed brahmin?
Sure, who would ever
believe that! Goodbye,
you Charlatan.
Node016->Node999
OK. I think I've heard
just about enough.
Goodbye.
Node016->Node002
The ghost of an
amuletless princess in
the trashed room next
door? That's it? I can't
believe you're peddling
*that* as a story.
I'd rather hear about
this stupid Mummy you're
supposed to have here.
