Pitch black. Why is it so dark? As you gain consiousnous yet the darkness lingers, you sit puzzled. When the freezing cold stone floor you sat on became too much for you naked hands to bare, you jerk them up and attempt to breath on them for warmth. The bag over your head had been there so long, you had started to forget its very existance.
[[Pull the bag off of your head -> Pull Bag Off]]
or
[[Try to remember what is happening -> Contemplate]]With an aching shoulder, you muster a bit of strength, just enough to pull the bag off of your head. A slight breeze washes over your face but ... its still pitch black. You look around in hopes of finding any tiny sliver of light. Nothing, nothing but the darkness, and you, and the bag.
Worry starts to build and both your heart and mind begin racing.
[[Stand up -> Stand up]]
[[Warm up your hands and feet -> Find warmth]]Trying to clear up the fog in you head, you stay seated on the cold stone floor.
No matter how hard you try, you cant seem to recall how you ended up in this situation. With a sigh of abandon, you conclude that its no use and decide to pull the bag off of your head.
[[Pull the bag off of your head -> Pull Bag Off]] You use all of you might to lift your self up to your feet. Your right knee doing its very best to stay attatched wobbles, causing you to stagger. Losing your balance, you fall backwards and find that to your surprise, as your back slams into it, there was a wall there.
Just as cold as the floor and just as dark.
[[Atempt to stand up again -> Stand Up Again.]]Though your heart and mind were racing, the cold was all you could think about. You oddly use the bag to cover your hands while shuffling and rubbing your feet together for some warmth.
[[Continue warming yourself up -> Cold Wall]]Realizing you were in some sort of room, you once again begin lifting yourself up. Your strenth had return a little more allowing you to stand up without struggling.
The sudden movements had helped warm up your body. As you gain more of your strength, you put one hand on the wall and prepare to explore the darkness.
[[Navigate the room -> Navigate First Room]] While attempting to warm up your feet however, you accidentally touch something with your big toe. Something cold, as cold as the stone floor. Something you could not see.
Scared sensless, you immediately jump up with strength you didn't even know you had. Stumbling backwards, you find yourself up against a wall.
[[Where am I -> Smile]]You feel your lips form a smile in the darkness as you realized your toes had just touched the other side of the wall.
Luckily, your sudden movements had helped to further warm up your body. You stand up straight with a hand on the wall for balance.
[[Navigate the room -> Navigate First Room]]One step at a time and with a hand brushing the wall, you being walking around the room. As you continue to walk, you realize that you had not felt any corners yet.
You conclude that the room must be a circle and continue walking.
[[Continue exploring the room -> Continue Exploring]]Not long after your revelation, your hand slips off the wall throwing you off guard. The room had a hole in the wall. Or moreso, a pathway. Once you understand that you were about to leave the room, you reach both your hands out to the side and are able to touch both sides of the corridor.
Taking a deep breath, you trudge forward, now with both hands brushing opposite sides of the corridor.
[[Go deeper into the corridor -> Explore the corridor]]You continue down the corridor as a slight breeze brushes past you once in a while.
All of a sudden, almost simultaneously, both your hands lose touch of the walls that had guided you thus far. With slight panic, you back up and feel relief when you regain contact with the corridor walls.
Was it another open room? Or maybe two new passage ways?
To the right you catch the scent of pasteries. Food!
To the left you catch a whiff of a sweet perfume. Wow!
[[Hug and follow the left wall -> To Lust]]
[[Hug and follow the right wall -> To Gluttony]]
[[Try to understand your location ->Wall in Front]]You finally reach the orange glow which turned out to be a room. To your surprise though, not just a room. It was a hall... a banquet hall, filled with food and drinks to a level you had never seen before.
The hunger in your stomach took control of your body and you rush forward, lunging at the table in desparation. You dive into the food as if you life depended on it.
With no regard for the mess you were making, you fight to quench the starvation.
[[Eat the food -> Eat]]You had decided to go through the passage to the left. The sweet aroma of perfume guiding your way.
As you continue forward, the aroma got stronger. It was at a point where it no longer felt like just perfume. It was mind-altering. Loosing all sense of control and thought, you drift forward.
[[Keep going towards the aroma -> Towards Perfume]]You had decided to go through the passage to the right. The smell of the pastries filled both your nostrils and your mind.
As you continue forward, you begin to hear a noise that sounded as if someone was enjoying a meal to the point where the ate loud enough for everyone to hear.
"That must be some good food," you think to yourself as your mouth begins to water.
[[Go towards the sound -> Toward Chewing]]You decide to let go of the two corners you had your hands on and feel around in the blind for more information about your location.
You don't stumble around for long before you walk into a wall. With the walling blocking you orignial forward path, you need to decide which way to go.
[[Follow the wall right -> To Gluttony]]
[[Follow the wall left -> To Lust]]You had not noticed this before but for the first time since you had regained conciousness in this darkness, you felt hungry.
It was as if every step you took made you hungrier and hungrier. On top of that, the chewing in the distance got louder and louder further amplifying your hunger. It also did not help that the smell of the pastries you knew were lying ahead grew stronger.
[[Keep going -> Starving]]At this point, you were starving. Since the chewing most likely meant food, you started walking faster and faster. This made you hungrier and hungrier.
Battling the grumbling in your stomach and the watering in your mouth, you push forward.
Soon enough, you start to notice a dim orange glow in the distance.
[[Follow the orange light ->Gluttony]] You feel the life coming back to your body. The food was restoring the strenth you had lost to hunger and fatigue as you walked down the corridor towards this buffet. You were beginning to feel better.
It was at this moment that you finaly looked up and took a long enough breath for you to see the large figure at the end of the banqet table, sitting in the large throne-like seat.
[[Notice the figure ->Notice Figure]]"AAAHHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA," the figure explodes into laughter, "AAAHAHAHAHAHAHA."
"Well hello there, before you ask any questions, don't you think its polite to first introduce yourself," it continues?
You find yourself unable to reply due to all the food your hands had autonomously stuffed into your mouth. Choking on a piece of Red Velvet cake, you cough out,
[["I don't know who I am, sir." -> Gluttony Puzzle 1]]Your quick and bold response surprised you.
"No matter" the figure respons, "I only want you to answer one thing."
"Why do you eat so much? You must be full by now for a person of your size."
You pause in thought. You realize that you had not stopped eating ever since you walked into the room. And yet you continue to eat.
"Is my food that good? or are you just that hungry. AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA," the figure snorts.
You were not hungry. Not at all. But you still wanted more.
"Well then, do as you please" the figure grumbles before its fades into thin air.
[[Keep eating -> Keep Eating]]
[[Stop eating -> Stop Eating]]Although you contemplate stopping, you hands and mouth seem to have developed minds of their own. In union, they work to stuff more and more food down your throat.
Lost in the delight of the pasties, you give in. You eat, and you eat, and you eat, and you eat until at last, you body gives out... and YOU DIE.Although your hands attempted to continue feeding you, in disgust with yourself, you force yourself away from the food. It was as if the food was a magnet that not only pulled you physically but also mentally. You could not stop thinking about it.
In the breif moment you had decided to pull yourself away from the temptation however, you notice a white light at the far end of the banquet hall.
[[Go towards the light -> Go to Light]]
[[Keep eating -> Keep Eating]] You approach the light with caution. You could not see anything past it and have to decide whether you want to keep going or not.
You look back towards the buffet of food layed out on the banquet table before you make a final decision.
[[Go into the light -> Into the Light]]
[[Go back to the food -> Keep Eating]] You step into the light. Your heart starts beating faster and your mind continues to race. Before your eyes could adjust to the light, you hear a voice and the sound of people clapping.
"Welcome back my child!" you hear, "Well done!"
My eyes adjust just as a tall figure pulls me forward and hugs me.
"Sins be damned, you truely are my child."
THE END...The smell was really getting to you. Completely enchanted, you begin to speed up. All of a sudden, you snap out of your trance when you realize that the smell had aroused you.
Odd you think, but it was only a moment's thought. You quickly forget your query and continue to follow the sweet odor deeper and deeper into the dark corridor.
Soon enough, you see a dim pink glow in the distance. Curiosity on top of the bewitching scent and the now visible corridor drove you to full on sprint towards the light without a care in the world for your safety.
[[Run to the light ->Lust]]You gallop at full speed into the dimly lit pink room. You suddenly notice the stairs in front of you and struggle to stop yourself.
Entering the room, your nose explodes with the rich and extremely potent smell of perfume. You did not know what you were doing, did not know where you were, and certainly did not know why you were there. However, you could not help but hunger, hunger for something you had not yet discovered.
Your attention quickly breaks as you once again realize that you were extremely aroused. The aroma however quickly pulled you back into the trance.
[[Go further into the room -> Explore the Room]]With the smell guiding you, you start walking down the stairs and around the room, better understanding what it entailed.
At the center was a large king size bed with scarlet red silk sheets and beautiful draping curtains. Two wonderfully designed vases sitting at either side.
[[Check out the bed -> The Bed]]
[[Keep Looking around -> Explore More]]The bed was beautiful and so large. So many pillows.
You walk up to it and start feeling its textures. First the curtains then the silk. Its beauty and comfort pulls you in as you land one knee then the next, on the bed.
Everything smelled beautiful. Everything looked perfect. You were now fully on the bed getting ready to lay down when all of a sudden you realize the figure sleeping in it.
[[Jump out of the bed -> I am Lust]]You decide to keep walking around the room.
Behind the bed, there were a set of couches with a large fireplace. To the left of the bed was a hot-tub steaming with delight. To the right was a table of fruits and sweets.
After taking in everything that was layed out around the bed, you decide to go back to the bed.
[[Go to the bed -> The Bed]] You jump out of the bed when you notice the figure in the bed move around and turn towars you.
"Hi there", the figure whispers in a sweet, heart-warming voice. A voice that immediately put you back into the trace the perfume had first created. A gourgeous smile drew across it's face.
"Wanna join me?" it continued "this bed is quite comfortable"
[["Yes," join the figure in bed -> Lust Puzzle]]As you slide into the bed with the figure that has entranced you so, you hadn't even stopped to excuse your arousal.
To your pleasant surprise, the figure greets you with a kiss. You welcome it and return the same.
You could not help yourself and so, you continued.
[[Make love -> Make Love]]Time and space melted away as you began mindlessly making love with this figure who you had only moments ago encountered.
A small part of your mind attempted to tug at you to no avail. You were getting completely lost in the lust.
[[Continue making love -> Continue Making Love]]In the heat of the moment, you throw a pillow out of the way to later realize you had thrown it at a vase. Your momentum was halted as you heard the beautiful vase shatter at the side of the bed.
The figure, as if not noticing at all kept pulling you back. Back into the trace.
[[Keep making love -> Make More Love]]
[[Don't not regain your senses -> Stop]]You could no longer think for yourself. You were completely taken by the bewitching figure. You not only lost track of time and space but yourself as well. You drift away into a nothingness you did not understand, even forgetting the very beauty of the vase you had just broken. Nothing mattered anymore, not even you yourself...YOU DIEStruggling to fight the pull of the trance, you force yourself away from the figure in bed with you. It looks at you with a lack of emotion which confused you further.
"Ok then", it whispered "but ill be here if you ever need me". It slowly partially pulled the covers off of itself as if to bait you back towards it.
As soon as it closed its eyes however, you noticed a bright light at the back of the room where the fireplace had been.
[[Go to the light ->Go to Light 2]]
[[Go back to the figure -> Make More Love]] You approach the light with caution. You could not see anything past it and have to decide whether you want to keep going or not.
You look back towards the gorgeous figure resting in peace and beauty in the luxurious bed before you made a final decision.
[[Go into the light -> Into the Light]]
[[Go back to the figure -> Make More Love]] You freeze. Although your hunger wasn't completely satiated, a wave of embarassment hit you. Still, once in a while, your eyes continued to drift towards the food you were just enduling in.
You finally manage to push out a few words of what you felt to be and introduction.
[[Who are you? -> I am Gluttony]]
