# The knife that snapped
*Source: Devonex*
*Requirements: None*
*Location: Hurnscald*
*The player can find an elderly man sitting in his home, which is a pretty house with a small front yard. The man's name is Devonex. He has a wife named Cathy, who sits outside of the house. Cathy makes and sells compotes, and Devonex helps her.*
## Start
### Devonex
ln("Before you sits an old man with bandages on his hands and a scar on his mouth. He seems lost in thought for some seconds, before he finally notices you."),
lg("Oh, hello there, young man.", "Oh, hello there, young lady."),
l("Did you need something?"),
l("No, wait – that was me. Hu hu hu!"),
l("Frankly, I don't know who you are or what are you doing in our house, but since you're already here, may I ask you a favour?");
#### Option 1 – l("Of course.")
l("Good, good. You see, my wife Cathy, who's outside, is running a compote business. She makes and sells great compotes and I help her prepare them."),
l("But recently, something terrible has happened. I was here, cutting apples as usual, when suddenly, as I cut into one of the apples, my knife snapped in two."),
l("We still don't know how, but it seems like one of the apples was actually a snapple! It bit a half off the blade and then it tried to bite me!"),
l("Of course I did my best to stop it. I even tried to bite it back, but I forgot that my teeth have aged since twenty years ago."),
l("In the end I won, somehow. But after that incident, we decided to only buy green apples, just to make sure."),
l("Anyways: I need a new knife. One that is sharp and durable. Would you please bring me one?")
##### Option 1.1 – l("Alright, I'll do it.")
l("Huzzah! You'll find me right here when you have it, but please don't take too long. My wife would not appreciate that."),
l("Oh and the name's Devonex, in case you'd like to know.");
*Quit*
##### Option 1.2 – l("I wouldn't, sorry.")
*Quit*
##### Option 1.3 – l("Why doesn't your wife do it?")
l("Eh… she can't handle knives. She can't as much as carry one. Before I started helping her, she was cutting fruit up with spoons! Can you believe that?"),
l("I'm actually a painter, but I just couldn't let her do that. Forks? Please. But spoons?! Never!");
*Return*
#### Option 2 – l("No, you may not.")
*Quit*
## While out to get the knife
### Devonex
l("Hello there! Did you bring me a sharp knife?");
#### Option 1 – l("Yes!")
##### Donation – [Sharp knife]
l("Oh, great! Just wonderful. I can get back to preparing fruit for my great… compotes, yes. Our compotes. Her compotes, in fact. But you must give me some credit also."),
*Removes sharp knife*
l("This looks really good. I think you deserve a reward for this!");
*Add reward (1 Snapple)*
l("I didn't use it up in the end. We don't want our compotes to become serial killers, after all! So here you go. Don't worry, it has been drowned and washed."),
l("Thanks again and take care of yourself!");
*Quit*
##### Donation – [Normal knife]
l("Hmm... this doesn't look very sharp. Sorry, I don't think I'd like to work with this. Please find me a knife that is really sharp.");
*Quit*
##### Donation – [Rock knife]
l("Ew! What is this? Knife that increases vitality? Gosh, let me just age and die in peace! I'm happy on my way to the grave and you try to prolong my life by like, what, ten years? Hell no!");
*Quit*
#### Option 2 – l("No.")
l("I see. Well, let me know when you do bring me one!");
*Quit*
