Since we’re all feeling a little under the weather this month, I thought of a way we could still have fun while we’re rotting away in our beds from boredom: a choose-your-own-adventure game.

I understand that this might be a new concept for some of you, so I’ll explain how the game works before we get started. I’ll give you a single prompt to start with. Your job is to reply to my prompt and wait for more information from me. I’ll then give you another prompt based on what actions you took in your response… in other words, it’s a bit like collaborative storytelling. However, only one writer can establish the setting, and that’s me.

Got it?

Now… let’s begin.
Weary traveler! The spooky, demon castle that you had set out for when you started your journey to slay its lord months ago is upon you. It rests atop high cliffs, its darkened towers and turrets looming over the forest surrounding it. It appears to be guarded only by a drawbridge. But be careful! It hovers above treacherous waters. Try not to fall in.

How do you wish to proceed?

Shoot them with lightning and proceed further.

That's easy.

If he's that stupid to be killed by a door of all things, he is of no use to me. Send someone else in. The trolls are dead so there is no immediate threat... Lackey 2 can venture deeper into the castle.

He will ascend the staircase to the throne, avoiding any hazards that may be in the immediate vicinity.

Not without my express permission... and the only one here who is going to be sitting on any thrones is ME. However... Now is not the time. Is there anything else of note? Is the throne pristine? Tell me what it is like.

WHAT

NO!!! You can't do that!! I will not accept such a fate from an underhanded tactic such as that. No, I can't even call it a tactic. You simply had to make something up because you were afraid that I would secure my victory! Well guess what Bakura... Unless you can prove where I am, I was NOT pierced by any arrow and I am NOT dead! I'm no fool, I wouldn't be out in the open for just anyone to see, you know. My power is absolute! I can control anyone from distances far greater than just the entrance of your meager castle! You cannot best me this way and I won't let you. I've done what I could to play along with your little game, Bakura, and I'll have you know that your slight against me isn't going to be forgotten so easily either!

I didn't agree to these rules. Un-kill me or I'm not playing anymore.

UN-KILL ME THIS INSTANT, BAKURA!!

NO, I would NOT like to try again! I would like to continue because I am NOT DEAD, you insolent fool! Lackey 2 can secure my throne. Any ill fortune that befalls him is his own doing. A sacrifice for my goal. It it will be MY THRONE and I WIN THE GAME!! AND THEN I WILL RULE OVER THE KINGDOM AND ALL FIENDS AND GHOULS WILL BE MY SUBJECTS ALONG WITH THE MEAGER TOWNSFOLK!! ALL OF THEM WILL HAVE TO LISTEN TO ME

No! I have HAD IT with your game, Bakura! Your poor strategy and heavy handed style of play no longer interest me, so I am leaving

Oh? Did you ever consider that card wouldn’t have been an issue if you had focused on defeating our opponent instead of wasting all your life points?!

That WAS my strategy. I’m not about to put myself at risk when I have the Ghouls to do my legwork for me. You should know better, Bakura. I have a lot of ground to cover, and I can’t be everywhere at once... Not physically anyway. Besides, using my Rare Hunters let me see everyone else’s strategies so I could firm my own. I have plans, Bakura, and I mean to achieve them. You didn’t forget that, did you? If I recall, you had your own goals you were working towards...

That would have been stupid. Unlike you, I was not keen to make myself an open target. And unlike you, they didn't know who I was... I saw no point in revealing myself so early. They had a lot more anger directed at me than at you, for whatever reason. I wasn't afraid... I was just being smart. Without them knowing who I was, I could collect information I could use to better manipulate and move my plans along. You just have to be more flexible, Bakura. You were still getting what you wanted out of the deal, so my methods hardly should have bothered you. In fact... if you just listened to me from the start I wouldn't have had to change any of my plans! You could have defeated Yugi and taken Osiris in that first duel! Isn't that right, Bakura? I don't think I'm the one who was being a coward. I lead you to victory!
