>====>

You observe a cave, containing a wounded-but-recovering IMPERIAL DRONE.

> Be IMPERIAL DRONE

The drone is refusing to look at you. It is hurt. Deeply, deeply hurt. Isn't it a living, thinking being as well? Do you think it doesn't have feelings? That it doesn't deserve a name? It thought you cared!

> Geez, calm down.

Allright. Better make it a good name, though, or you're sleeping on the couch tonight.

> ENTER NAME:

> KRIC YELTSA

Well done! Maybe you do care after all!

> Be KRIC YELTSA

You are now KRIC YELTSA. You are a mighty IMPERIAL DRONE. And today is your wriggling day!
It was just six solar sweeps ago that your drone-larva was selected by the IMPERIAL OVERLORD to become an IMPERIAL DRONE! You grew up without a lusus and in one of the ROMBARRACKS, surrounded by other soon-to-be drones, learning the complexities of troll romance and combat. You recently completed your training and were sent on your first mission. It has not been going too well up until now.

> Recount recent events
Unexperienced and nervous, you made several errors, resulting in your getting roasted by a laser cannon. In the days since your conflict with that impetuous, unromantic law-breaker, you have spent time recovering from his LASER in one of the many caves littering the base of his mountain.

> Seek venegance
You begin making your way back towards the entrance to the pathetic wriggler's hive. He will not escape your IMPERIAL WRATH again. He will regret his defiance when you CRUSH HIS SKULL with your twin pails of romance.
All Imperial drones wield DUAL PAILKIND. In the right hands, these make a devastating weapon.
But first, the door.

> TERMINATE door
Oh yes, that door has it coming. Bad enough that it got in your way once, it is hindering you again in your fullfillment of your duty. It too will regret its defiance.

> Retrieve DEMOLITIONS CHARGE from sylladex
You carry several demolitions charges for this kind of situation with you. You intended to use them in the first place, but you somehow couldn't retrieve them from your sylladex. But it's time to try again.

> Open ROMANCE MODUS
All your items are stored using your ROMANCE MODUS.
To train you in the arts of troll emotion and romance, you must enter a romantic relationship with the item you wish to retrieve.
This is often problematic

Demolition charges, though. Where were they when you needed them? You thought they were reliable, told that they'd always work! But when you were in front of that door, and really needed something to break it open, they abandoned you! Left you for dead! They lied to you! And then you took the hit, and now they're here in your sylladex as if nothing had ever happened! And they're still refusing to help you! Screw them, if they can blast down a door, so can you. Now where's that log...
Oh. Great. Now they let you retrieve them. Come running back when they realize you're leaving. Pathetic. Well it's too late! The log is better for you than they ever were!
You pick one up, hurl it away from you in utter disgust. By pure chance, it smashes against the door, blowing it apart utterly.

...

Huh. Allright then!

> Enter hive
Buckets at your side, you enter the despicable wriggler's hive. You're not sure whether you're supposed to get this passionate about your duty, but this troll defied you, he humiliated you, and he almost killed you.
You really, really hate him.
