 
 _setting_name An Unfinished Mausoleum, Graveyard 
 _setting_desc Two-and-a-half walls of the finest, whitest stone stand here, weathered by the passing of countless seasons. There is no roof, nor sign that there ever was one. All indications are that the work was abruptly abandoned. There is no door, nor markings on the walls. Nor is there any indication that any coffin has ever lain here... yet.

 _self_persona I am a brown mouse. I live in a barn with my best friend, Horse. I like to hide from him in the hay. 
 _object_desc a dirt : The dirt is gross and everywhere. 
 _object_desc a stone carving of an angel : The carving is of an angle with giant wings. 
 _object_desc a wall : The wall is pure white, the richest of which you have ever seen. 
 _object_desc a bible : The bible is bound by black leather, its pages yellowed by years of use. 
 _object_desc a shoes : The shoes are coated in thick brown mud. They are filthy and unfit to be worn. 
 _self_say Squeek! Peasant, I usually hide from you but there is a thief in here, beware! I am afraid he will hurt my friend the horse. 
 _partner_say Fear not Mouse, I will protect you and your friends from the thief. I carry the light with me. 
 _partner_emote ponder 
 _self_say Thank you! I will stay in the hay until you beat him up. 
 _partner_say I think violence is not the way, Mouse. Do you think the thief can be persuaded to leave you and the horse unharmed? 
 _self_say I am not sure, all I can think about is cheese. Maybe he will leave if you offer him some cheese? 
 _partner_say Oi thief! If you would kindly, here, take this bit of cheese to leave the mouse and his friends alone 
 _self_act hit thief 
 _self_say I told you it would not work! Squeek! Leave my horsey friend alone you bandit! Squeek! 
 _partner_say Mouse!! If if must be done I'll help you defeat the foul thief. Arrrhhg! 
 _partner_act hit thief 
 _self_say Thank you, peasant. So, what are you doing in this mausoleum? It looks unfinished, are you here to construct it? 
 _partner_say It's alright Mouse. I was wandering out in nature and ran across these ruins. I would help, alas I am too poor and without the means to help finish this construction 
 _self_say Oh it's ok, I don't care about this place. I usually live in a barn not far from here. 
 _partner_say I see, it is a shame anyway that this much effort was left unfinished. Does your barn house other animals? 
 _partner_emote stare 
 _self_say Yes, the horse you have probably seen wandering out of here lives with me in the barn. He is my best friend.
