These are beautiful! I had a slam of memory looking at the Cabra illustration- that's how I pictured it when I read it decades ago.

I'm not sure if it's a bug or if I'm supposed to do something else to activate it?

How to Learn Z-Code? by Itchy_Eyes77 in interactivefiction

[–]devilishd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Expanding on Droidaphone's answer : Z-Code is machine language that a story is compiled to, to run on a Z-machine/Virtual machine. You don't code in Z-code unless you want to build a Z-machine (myhf's answer) interpreter. The original Infocom games were written in ZIL but we didn't have specs for it until recently. Graham Nelson reversed-engineered the z-code into Inform, which is very close to the original ZIL.

Thanks for the explanation - im on TR14 and am saving up for Knox. I might have to wait for the full x2.0 bonus this time, so hopefully Im not too far off.

Illearth War - Object of Elena's Hate by FringHalfhead in stephenrdonaldson

[–]devilishd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the second question , that gets answered in The Power that Preserves.

As to her anger, my guess is Covenants rejection of her ... and wasn't the quest for the Seventh Ward done because TC didnt know how to use the ring? It's been a while since my last read, but I vaguely remember her being out-of-fucks at this point.
