About the Story

You awake groggy outside your family's Keep, aware only that the Mindsword has been wrenched from you by a powerful Warlock.

Author's Comment: "An RPG/parser homage to the sword & sorcery classic Hawk the Slayer, a 1980 film by Terry Marcel and Harry Robertson. After forty years, I have created a fan fiction sequel in this mode, using only words to fire the imagination. As Tolkien said, works of literary fantasy proceed not from ready-made pictures but rather "from mind to mind" with well-chosen words; a text adventure therefore seems an appropriate medium for the Bearer of the Mindsword.

Please don't use the SCRIPT ON command, which interferes with Quest code: the NPCs will not work."
