The thread returns to life and quickly entangles your legs and is snaking toward your arms.

Realizing that the leaflet from 3 years ago remains unread, you unfold it.

It contains two words:

You cut off your arms and put the covfefe into the modulo and the lime in the coconut using your feet. You feel better until you realize that you drank toe jam.

Not having arms, use of a pipe wrench is limited.

A sprite appears and repairs your arms

You examine the coin. One one face is the head of Belwit the Flat. On the other face is the denomination: 1 Zorkmid. It is a Flathead coin of great antiquity.
