Question 1 of 10
1. The wormhole expels you onto a platform, overlooking a large group of people. They are all dressed in togas and sandals. A man is speaking loudly to the crowd. His hands are covered in blood. You hear him say "...the evil that men do lives after them while the good is oft interred with their bones." The voice from the wormhole booms out "What story is it?" Hint


Question 2 of 10
2. The wormhole expels you onto an open, grassy plain. You see a man dressed in green raising a large axe over his head. There is a prostrate man in armor directly under the axe. You hear the man dressed in green say "And you, all unharmed, are wholly dismayed-Wherefore, the better man I, by all odds, must be." As the man in green lifts his axe higher, the voice from the wormhole booms out "What story is it?" Hint


Question 3 of 10
3. You are expelled from the wormhole, and you find yourself in a pitch-black cavern. You see two, dark-skinned, pointed-ear creatures fighting. The female wields a whip, while the male wields two scimitars. The male eventually cuts off two of her fingers, and orders his black panther to kill her. The voice from the wormhole booms out "What story is it?" Hint


Question 4 of 10
4. You seem to have been transported to a terrace overlooking a garden. There is a woman on the terrace listening to a man in the garden say sweet nothings to her. You think his words are quite imaginative until you realize that he is merely a figurative ventriloquist dummy. There is a hidden, large-nosed man telling him what to say. The voice from the wormhole booms out "What story is it?" Hint


Question 5 of 10
5. You find yourself in a saintly looking room where a man in a wheelchair is pointing a gun at a priest. The priest seems to have branded four words into his flesh. You see that the words are 'fire', 'air', 'earth', and 'water'. The branding is unique, for if you read the branded words backwards and upside down, you still see the same words. The voice from the wormhole booms out "What story is it?" Hint


Question 6 of 10
6. You are expelled from the wormhole onto a chair in some kind of office. You see an albino man pointing a gun at someone sitting in a desk. In their conversation, you hear the name "Mcdeer" mentioned. The man at the desk then fires a gun he had concealed beneath the desk, which hits the albino in the leg. In retaliation, the albino fires his gun and kills the other man. The voice from the wormhole booms out "What story is it?" Hint


Question 7 of 10
7. The wormhole expels you onto a pile of treasure. You see a dragon sleeping nearby, and realize that you must be in a dragon's hoard. You see an invisible midget rummaging through piles of treasure. This seems to awaken the dragon. The dragon stands up and says "Well thief! I smell you and feel your air. I hear your breath." The voice from the wormhole booms out "What story is it?" Hint


Question 8 of 10
8. You find yourself in a darkened room. There is a dead body lying on the floor, covered in blood. You see another man who seems to be writing a word on a wall with blood. You see that the word is "Rache". You hypothesize that the man was trying to write the name Rachel. The voice from the wormhole booms out "What story is it?" Hint


Question 9 of 10
9. You are violently thrown from the wormhole onto a table. In front of you, a man with a crazy look in his eye is holding a dagger before him. You hear him say, "Is this a dagger I see before me. The handle toward my hand?" The voice from the wormhole booms out "What story is it?" Hint


Question 10 of 10
10. Everything around you starts to clarify and you see that you are in someone's living room. You see a short, stocky, slow-witted, bald man say to a hipster doofus with flared nostrils, "You're Batman". The doofus laughs and replies, "Yeah, I am Batman". The voice from the wormhole booms out "what story is it?" Hint

You find yourself transported back to the library where all your adventures began. You wonder if it was all a dream.

Then you look down and see the book titled 'Don't Open Me', closed before you.

While you are thinking, a short, stocky, slow-witted, bald man comes up to your table and asks you "Can you help me find 'The Tropic of Cancer'. You look him up and down. Then you clear your throat, and say confidently, "Yes I can help you.
