Ingame
You are inside a classroom of Pridmore Way School, a high school. Every wall has shelves built to the ceiling, every surface a book on it. Both make narrow walking corridors of the classroom floor space. Lamps hung from the ceiling make buzzing noises as they sectionally light the room. Also here is Ross (55HP).
Somebody has written the library has no organizational structure onto the door, to borrow or lend is theft or generosity onto a shelf, and answers are administered to questions irregularly onto the floor. Many are signed as the management, some crossed-out, others not.
- You say, "I'm sure there's more to it." You do recall how peculiar and unalike a building it appeared when you sighted Latrobe from atop the Bartlett Building (remembering the name as if it had been written on top of its roof). Latrobe was tall, very vertical, had a uniform concrete surface, and only a few, insufficiently small windows. One little green light was on the top. It seemed made-up; or it only looked strange to you, to others having a much more normal appearance.
If you question Ross directly, his answer, whether avoidance or bluntness, will tell you something about Latrobe. Looking at an incredulous thing and accusing it of incredulity will reveal its secrets that incredulity hides.
Since your last turn:
- • Ross says "Well, it was active throughout the quarantine and was involved in finding a cure, though a cure was impossible." (49 seconds ago)
- • Ross says "Reversing death would be ugly in most cases. Preventing it didn't seem to work, since when the process of turning began the brain was in a sense being 'eaten.' But we're not going there for that." (35 seconds ago)
- • Ross says "There are some useful medical supplies that could help us and Doug. Most such facilities managed to stay operative far past the quarantine, staving off the greatest part of the looting." (20 seconds ago)
- • 28.63 MHz: "...release it?" (10 seconds ago)
- • Ross says "Nothing more to it." (6 seconds ago)
Possible actions:
- Explain Latrobe's strange architecture
Inventory:
- You carry a knife; a journal and a notebook; a bloodied radio and a flare gun. You have a shotgun (2), a pistol (12) and three spare magazines inside your vest pouches. You are wearing a tactical vest, blue jeans, a white T-shirt and a pair of shoes.
