"A furnace, eh? Guess I'll need to melt something later. The minecart track also looks interesting, though, so I guess I'll likely have to transport something through there as well. I only need to find a minecart I can actually put on the tracks, and where the other end of the track is." He goes back to the hall, then west.

Gallery
Giant vases and pictures are displayed on cases and stuck tightly to the wall. Even though they look really valuable, you can't get them off. There is a VASE on the middle of the room though, and it looks valuable. There's also a GOLD NUGGET inside of the VASE, though you can't reach it, and would rather not break it.

"Gosh, finally some loot!" He laughs "Oh, this is wonderful, it's really making me feel at home!" He stops "Well, at work I mean. I don't put work over home, no I don't" He eyes the corners suspiciously "Okay, let's see, I'll leave the vase here for a while. I mean, not like anyone can take it, right?" He stops and thinks "Better not risk it. There's also the nugget inside, but I think, if I can bring it upstairs, I can fill the vase with water and get the nugget out. Yeah, there's also the matter of getting these stuff out there, and, well, getting me out of here"
He goes WEST, then SOUTHWEST

Bottom of Shaft
A lone bucket of water lies here, resting on some coal.

"Sweet! It's like all my problems are completely gone! I can just come here and dump the stuff I get on the bucket, though it's gonna take a few trips or so. Up there I can fill the bucket with water again, so really, I'll just dump the water here" He throws the water from the bucket away, bucket still tied to the rope.
"Alright, I suppose I'm off to the last room" He goes NORTHWEST and SOUTH

Equipment Area
A PICKAXE lays on the table, along a piece of HALF-MELT GOLD. There is tons of mining equipment here, so you can refill it if your LANTERN runs out. Most of the other stuff is broken, and there is a piece of COAL embedded on the wall. A MINECART, standing right, is on the opposite corner of the room, standing on some minecarts, though it's too small for you, and there are tons of ROCKS scattered all around, some of them being quite heavy.

"Hit the jackpot, I presume!" Ace begins mining the coal with the pickaxe "I'll likely need to use this on the furnace, and unlike the others standing everywhere, this one seems actually usable! Haha" He laughs. "I'll probably have to melt the gold, as it's already a bit melted." He looks to the minecart. "Look! This is also likely the minecart!" Ace says as he finishes getting the lump of coal from the wall. "Now, if this leads where I think it leads, I just have to put some rocks on it and bon voyage!" He pushes the minecart along the tracks, and pockets the gold, along the coal, dropping the pickaxe and rusty key.

"Alright, to Diamond room!"

Diamond Room
There is a MINECART with ROCKS in here, along with a big DIAMOND resting on some leaves.

"OH! I realized why this feels so familiar. This place! These gardens, at least, not the wacky stuff in the others room, I think they're exactly like those in the Mine that went to waste! I noticed the rocks are here, so I can get the diamond, but if I'm not mistaken..." He crawls and pushes a rock out of the way, revealing nothing "Oh, that's..." He sighs "That's disappointing... I suppose the person who programmed this didn't know about that room, though, like, how could've they?"
He sighs, and begins to complete the puzzle "Alright, let's do this, easy peasy" He rolls one of the rocks into the pile of leaves, takes the Diamond and puts it on the minecart. He pushes the minecart away.
ENDING SEQUENCE (with Chris' permission)
Ace goes to the furnace room, melts the gold with the coal and gets a remote that was embedded in the chunk of gold "Sweet, my way out, apparently" He goes to the gallery and gets the VASE and the GOLD NUGGET.
Carrying Capacity: 5/7 (Vase is fairly cumbersome to carry, so he's worth +2)
He goes to the equipment room and gets the diamond
Carrying Capacity: 7/7 (The Diamond is big and heavy, so he's worth +2)
"Now, finishing touches" He puts everything on the bucket (either assume it's a giant bucket, or that he made the trip up and down tons of times) and managed to get everything out there, avoiding the guards. "I'll leave the nugget on the vase for now, not like I need to get it out on his own, I presume"
He then presses the remote on the gazebo room, and the grate opens, revealing the exit
"I made it, whoopie-de-do" He leaves the Round Room to the outside, and the VR world disappears. "Why do I feel tired, again? Come on, that was sweet, that really hit the spot! It got all me fired up again, and it's not like the person could've known about that room, you're likely the only one that does!" He sighs "Welp, that was good to cheer me too, back to actual business, though"

You missed: The Bow and Arrow, Snake Fang, Crown, Gold Nugget
Score: 70/100, earning you the rank of mediocre adventurer!

"Really? So I had to get the Gold Nugget on his own?" He slaps his forehead "Oh, right, it's an adventure game. And really, screw you VR world, I'm not mediocre in any way, pfft" He grins "I'm ashamed of you even thinking that. Still, no idea on how to get that Bow and Arrow, so some of the criticism is welcome in a way" He leaves the room "Well, back to business, that was fun, and enlightening"

"Alright, I'm going to stand outside, once the simulation begins, start talking. If I don't hear anything from you in 5 seconds, I'll assume no one will be able to hear me either once I join"

A loud voice booms through the room:
Select your scenario. Mine? Cave? Ruins? Your pick.

He groans "I didn't get to pick, darn it. You just gave me the boring random mine, stupid VR"

Bernadette jumped at the voice and looked around before relaxing slightly. "Uh...cave. Do you hear me Ace?"

"Right now I still am, but I don't think the simulation started yet. Let's wait some more" He ponders, tapping his chin. He's outside, so he can't exactly see what's going on.

~Loading Cave~
You're in a small tunnel underneath a grate. You have a LANTERN in your hand, and there is a small crevice to the EAST you can crouch through. To the SOUTH and NORTH, the tunnel extends. There is a small SACK here.

"How about now?" She asks as she inspects the interior of the cave. "Hmm...these are very realistic...." She then heads over to the sack and opens it up to inspect what may be inside.

There is a CLOVE OF GARLIC and a JEWELED EGG. The egg seems to be fairly fragile, but it appears to have something inside

She looks at the two items carefully before tucking the CLOVE OF GARLIC back in the SACK. She then looks at the JEWELED EGG and shakes it gently, listening carefully to what ever may rattle around inside. |

"Nope, it seems I can't hear her. And, of course, from my own experience, she can't hear me either." He sighs "Good, good. This shall be a good place" He looks at the small frequency-changer device he used previously "Thank you, but I don't think it's a good idea using this more than once. Someone is likely to get suspicious if I keep using this thing" He pockets the device.
"Well, let's step in. Hopefully it's more interesting than last time"
(gah, I have to leave, darn it)

By shaking the JEWELED EGG, you hear the sound of a chirping bird.
