Snap out of it allard, it was all a dream, the monster Zork has been slain! :twisted:

> TAKE THE KEY
> OPEN THE DOOR
> WALK SOUTH

It's all over now, when you awake you will feel mildly perturbed... and you're back in the room!... You might want to go and get a nice hot cup of tea now (don't look behind the door).
