You turn left, it does not matter if there is some strange smell coming from there, you are here for an adventure! After a few steps you step on something... the ceiling starts rumbling....
the ceiling caves in and a strange-smelling man falls from above into the room. "who the hell are you, and what are you doing here?" the man asks you.

Used to be we had to worry about kids asking us to do their homework on the internet, now they want us to solve Zork for them.

;-)
Solving Zork for kids grants the character +10 Intelligence! But because you spent all your time solving Zork, you turned into a weak, shriveled character. -9001 Strength.
With all your strength gone you can't even manage to stay on your feet and drop to the floor. Help!
Whilst on the floor you find a book amongst the rubble.
On the cover of the book is a picture of a partial key & the words "Do you want to play a game?"
Opening the book, you see a simple grid defined by two parallel vertical lines bisected by two parallel horizontal lines.
Someone has drawn Xs and Os on the grid and there is a coffee stain on the corner.

Your failing strength urges you to find sustenance. With difficulty you tear a page from the book and try to chew it down. The coffee stain tastes good, and the drinker had had milk and sugar in their drink. You regain some minor amount of energy from the nutrients.
Flipping through the pages, you notice some of them are quote sticky and covered in what seem to be the remains of a quite greasy meal.

You immediately recognize the magic quote stickies you studied some years ago.
You grab "Strength is bolstered by heavenly faith" and lick it fast.
BOOM! You feel rejuvenated at once and immediately stand up, ready to confront.. a quite puzzled stinky dude..

the stinky dude says to you, "oh my gosh, that's disgusting! i wish you would have asked me what was on that before you licked it!" :)

Examine stickies.
Cast Frotz and turn the dude into a useable light source.

Strike with sword.

You aim your furious blows at the Stinky One, but none of them reach their intended targets. It is not long after that you realize you brought no weapons.

Wait.

You wait... the smell intensifies and you start feeling sick. You fell to the floor yet again.

Creep.

As you creep amidst the filth that plagues the floors and paints the walls, experiencing violent seizures due to the toxic nature of the smell, you come to a sudden stop and find yourself fading into darkness, as someone drags you ever deeper into the abysmal madness of the halls and corridors of the demented.

Cry.

You cry pathetically. T_T
Damn! I was too late. Let's say this happened in a parallel universe. String theory, Higgs bosons and all that nice stuff. A wizard did it!

ZapMcRaygunn: Examine stickies.

The stinky man blazes like a roman candle. Screaming in fear, even though the flames are just an illusion, he tears off down a passage. Hmm, you think to yourself as you chase the disappearing illusory candle of stinky dude, useable light source, yes, but not practical. Definitely not practical. Should have leashed him first.
You start to smell smoke and then see that the man accidentally set the passage on fire as he ran through it! You have to think quickly about how to escape...

You realize your spell has somehow backfired against you as no way the man can set the passage on fire with illusionary flames.

Saving throw Vs illusion +1

You realize that you could be caught in an illusion and tried to formulate the cause of it so you can get out of your predicament.

Is that something to do with the book you ate earlier?

Is that something to do with the traps in the room?

Is that something to do with the man you tried to set fire on?
