Think you have the wits(and smarts) to survive? -------------------------------------------------------------------- *** 1 *** You, Rain, and your mother Esperenza all stand on the hill, watching the Cimarron herd. You watch as the horses in the herd all lie down in exhaustion and hunger. The used-to-be plain was desert now, with only a few blades of grass left. You need to make a decision......... - Do you go to find greener pastures => 2 - Or do you stay andlive off the few blades => 3 -------------------------------------------------------------------- *** 2 *** You round the herd up, ready for evacuation. Groaning, the herd follows your guidance. You are suddenly filled with nervousness. These horses are in your hooves; any wrong move and all of you are doomed. Suddenly, out of nowhere, you hear running water. The herd does nothing but keep moving. Do you: - Head towards the sound => 4 - Stay with the herd => 5 -------------------------------------------------------------------- *** 3 *** You feel your strenth being slowly drained from you. You lie down, ready to die............. - Restart => 1 -------------------------------------------------------------------- *** 4 *** Putting Rain in charge of the herd, you go towards the sound. After walking for awhile, you realize that all you heard was just your mind playing tricks on you. - Continue => 3 -------------------------------------------------------------------- *** 5 *** The sun beats down on your back. Rain leans on you for support. A few horses have dropped to the ground, never to rise again. Food is scarce due to desert conditons, but then you see a miracle: a patch of grass, nearly 3 feet in diameter. Your mouth waters at the sight, but then you think of your herd. Do you: - Eat the grass; you're starving! => 6 - Give the grass to your herd; you can go for a few more days. => 7 - Skip the grass; then you and your herd will be even on food. => 8 - Give the grass to Rain and Esperenza; they deserve it! => 9 - Ignore the grass; continue on. => 10 -------------------------------------------------------------------- *** 6 *** You quickly gobble down the grass. Your jealous herd gangs up on you. (Let's not mention the next part) - Restart => 1 -------------------------------------------------------------------- *** 7 *** You show your herd the grass, which they quickly gobble down.
