2	Central Furnace	A thick layer of coal dust covers the furnace, colouring it pitch-black.		48

4	You	"Kim, what is this thing? Is it a furnace?!"	IsKimHere()	20
5	You	Look inside the furnace.		97
6	You	Kick it with your foot.		19
7	You	[Leave.]
8	You	Smear your hands with coal.		9
9	Central Furnace	A lush layer of coal now covers your skin, sinking into the wrinkles. Your hands look ancient.		10
10	Inland Empire	You feel the spirit of Ramout Karzai, ancient hero of Graad, pulsing through you. All that's left is to cover your face in war-paint.		11

14	None			15 16
15	You	Hadramut Karzai! Smear your cheeks black with coal.		17
16	You	No, let's not express ourselves. Let's just wipe our hands clean on our pants.		18
17	Inland Empire	Three dangerous stripes appear onto your cheeks, telling stories of your wild soul.		21
18	Inland Empire	Yes, how grown-up. The furnace agrees.		43
19	Central Furnace	A hollow ring echoes through the furnace. Your toe hurts.		3
20	Kim Kitsuragi	"Looks like it. Looks like an old central furnace used to heat the building. It's connected to the chimney..." He opens the door and gingerly peeks inside.		95
21	Central Furnace			22 23
22	Central Furnace		IsKimHere()	24
23	Central Furnace		(IsKimHere()) == false	72
24	Kim Kitsuragi	"What... what are you doing?"		29 30
25	You	Yell "Hello!" into the furnace.	Variable["doomed.furnace_heard_voices"] == true and Variable["TASK.doomed_investigation"] == true	26

29	You	"I am the reincarnation of an ancient Iilmaraan warrior."		33
30	You	"Nothing!" (Wipe your face clean.) "Sorry, that was stupid."		31
31	Kim Kitsuragi	"Yes. Yes, it was," the lieutenant nods, before turning back to the furnace.		32
32	None			3
33	Kim Kitsuragi	"Please wipe your face clean, officer."		34
34	Conceptualization	No, you're a proud warrior, keep it.		49
35	You	Wipe it clean.		36
36	Kim Kitsuragi	"Thank you," the lieutenant nods. "So, where were we?" He turns back to the furnace.		32
37	Central Furnace	"Hello?" you hear a woman's voice answer.		117
38	You	"Hello! Are you there? Speak to me!"		73
39	You	"This is the police! Who's there?"		73
40	Physical Instrument	You muster all your strength and yell...		145

45	Central Furnace		(IsKimHere()) == false	32
46	Kim Kitsuragi	The lieutenant seems relieved as well.		32
47	You	Don't wipe it.		50
48	Inland Empire	Looks like this furnace has a face and it's a face of agony.		3

51	Central Furnace		Variable["doomed.furnace_redcheck_authority"]	53
52	Central Furnace		(Variable["doomed.furnace_redcheck_authority"]) == false	54
53	Authority	These three stripes give you strength in this dangerous realm. It would be foolish to remove them.		55
54	Authority	You can feel your cheeks turn red under the lieutenant's gaze -- you look like a kid, not a police officer. Even the war-paint can't conceal the embarrassment.		35
55	You	"We're exploring this dark place and I need the protection my war-paint affords."		56
56	Kim Kitsuragi	"And *this* protects you?"		60 57
57	You	"It gives me confidence and that's all that matters, Kim."		58
58	Kim Kitsuragi	"Okay, sure. Go ahead." He stubbornly looks away from you and the furnace.		75
59	None			3
60	You	"*This* is traditional war-paint. It will grant me safe passage with the spirits that guard this place."		58
61	Encyclopedia	Just pointing out -- this is *not* traditional Semenese war-paint. No idea where you got it.		59
62	Authority	What a proud warrior! This is how the hunted becomes the hunter in this dark dangerous place.		32
63	Half Light	And it's a woman! Of course! The malicious entities are *always* women.		68
64	You	"I summon the ghost of this Doomed Commercial Area. Answer me, spirit!"	Variable["TASK.doomed_investigation"] == true and Variable["TASK.doomed_investigation_done"] == false and Variable["doomed.furnace_halflight_succubus"] == false	73

72	Central Furnace			62
73	Central Furnace	"Hello! Did you say anything?" There's a pause. "I can't hear you, please come upstairs! There's a safety curtain on the second floor, I'll open it!"		74
74	Perception (Hearing)	You hear a low rumble upstairs -- the sound of a curtain being pulled aside.		81
75	Central Furnace			76 77
76	Central Furnace		Variable["doomed.furnace_said_traditional_warpaint"]	61
77	Central Furnace		(Variable["doomed.furnace_said_traditional_warpaint"]) == false	59
78	Physical Instrument	Something *breaks loose* in you. A mighty bellow echoes throughout the chimney's depths. The chatter of tiny voices above suddenly cease. Then...		37
79	Inland Empire	You've awakened the entity!		65
80	You	"I summon the ghost of this Doomed Commercial Area. Now begone, vile succubus!"	Variable["TASK.doomed_investigation"] == true and Variable["TASK.doomed_investigation_done"] == false and Variable["doomed.furnace_halflight_succubus"] == true	73

85	Central Furnace		IsKimHere()	87
86	Central Furnace		(IsKimHere()) == false	88
87	Kim Kitsuragi	"Hmm, maybe you should let your voice rest, officer. Try again later."		41
88	None			3
89	Volition	A lifetime of smoking and drinking will do that to you.		90
90	Central Furnace	The chatter from the chimney continue on as before. You seem to have made no impression on whatever's *up there*.		148
91	Kim Kitsuragi	The lieutenant nods, then points upstairs. "After you, officer."		42
92	Central Furnace			93 94
93	Central Furnace		Variable["doomed.seen_furnace"]	147
94	Central Furnace		(Variable["doomed.seen_furnace"]) == false	2
95	Kim Kitsuragi	"No one has used it in ages... No signs of any recent fire, only dead rats."		96
96	None			3
97	Central Furnace	It's dark and grimy here. In the darkness, you can hear *chatter*. It's coming from above. A voice -- or several voices -- talking to each other, near the smoke chamber upstairs.		139
98	Central Furnace			99 100
99	Central Furnace		IsKimHere()	101
100	Central Furnace		(IsKimHere()) == false	120
101	Kim Kitsuragi	"What are you doing?" the lieutenant asks when he sees you climb half-way inside the furnace.		102
102	None			103 104 105
103	You	"I'm hallucinating."		110
104	You	"I hear the murderer of the hanged man talking."		107
105	You	"I'm not sure, Kim... but I think I can hear someone talking upstairs."		107
106	Kim Kitsuragi	"Wait, really?" He looks up at the ceiling. "Maybe it's coming from behind those safety curtains we saw upstairs?"		149
107	Central Furnace			108 109
108	Central Furnace		Variable["doomed.seen_safety_curtains"]	106
109	Central Furnace		(Variable["doomed.seen_safety_curtains"]) == false	112
110	Kim Kitsuragi	"Wait, really?" The lieutenant sounds concerned. "Take your head out of the chimney, please. It's not safe."		111
111	Esprit de Corps	It feels safe to know that the lieutenant's got your back, now and always.		138
112	Kim Kitsuragi	"Wait, really?" He looks up at the ceiling. "We should investigate, see if someone's upstairs."		113
113	None			3
114	You	"Those voices I heard... Maybe it's the malignant Entity? Plaisance said it lives in a chimney."	Variable["doomed.furnace_heard_voices"] == true and Variable["TASK.doomed_investigation"] == true and Variable["TASK.doomed_investigation_done"] == false and IsKimHere() and Variable["doomed.plaisance_kim_suggested_returning_to_furnace"] == false	115
115	Kim Kitsuragi	"You're right, the rooms do look like they're connected. But *malignant Entities* don't exist -- at least not the *supra-natural* kind."		136
116	None			3
117	Central Furnace			118 119
118	Central Furnace		Variable["tc.doomed_commercial_area"] or Variable["plaza.annette_heard_of_doomed"]	79
119	Central Furnace		(Variable["tc.doomed_commercial_area"] or Variable["plaza.annette_heard_of_doomed"]) == false	65
120	None			121 122 123 124
121	You	What's happening?!		125
122	You	I'm hallucinating...		125
123	You	I hear the murderer of the hanged man talking.		125
124	You	I'm getting carbon monoxide poisoning.		125
125	Central Furnace			126 127
126	Central Furnace		Variable["doomed.seen_safety_curtains"]	128
127	Central Furnace		(Variable["doomed.seen_safety_curtains"]) == false	129
128	Central Furnace	Maybe it's coming from behind those safety curtains you saw upstairs? You should investigate...		133
129	Central Furnace	Maybe it's coming from somewhere upstairs? You should investigate...		133
130	None			3
131	Endurance	Could it be psychological? Because your physical health is fine.		132
132	Volition	This sounded real, not imagined.		130
133	Electrochemistry	Or maybe you're just hungover again.		131
134	Conceptualization	Maybe you could *paint* something with this coal? Leave a cave painting for future archaeologists... no, that would be stupid.		135
135	Physical Instrument	Still, it's good you have this dirt on you. Real men wear *coal* for make-up.		32
136	Rhetoric	Always has to be the sceptic, this man...		137
137	Half Light	Then what was the chatter you heard?		116
138	Volition	This sounded real, not imagined.		113
139	Perception (Hearing)	The echo is so prominent, it's impossible to discern what the voices are saying. Or what's producing them.		98
140	Central Furnace			141 142
141	Central Furnace		Variable["doomed.furnace_yelling_failed_once"]	143
142	Central Furnace		(Variable["doomed.furnace_yelling_failed_once"]) == false	40
143	Physical Instrument	Another pathetic yelp sounds off into the vast darkness of the chimney. You're a little embarrassed you produced it.		146
144	Physical Instrument	Your dehydrated, hungover throat can produce little more than a dry croak.		89
145	You	"He... he... hekkhhhh..."		144
146	None			3
147	Central Furnace	A thick layer of coal dust covers the furnace, colouring it pitch-black.		3
148	Central Furnace	Then again -- maybe it's worth actually trying something *up there*?		84
149	Central Furnace			150 151
150	Central Furnace		Variable["TASK.find_the_witch"]	113
151	Central Furnace		(Variable["TASK.find_the_witch"]) == false	152
152	Kim Kitsuragi	"We should ask the lady in the bookstore what's going on with these curtains."		113
