text: > Go downwards
  You get off the ladder.
  
  This shack is built right onto the side of the cliff, physics be damned. It's rather damp, likely due to it being suspended over the sea, but otherwise it's quite nice. There are some nautical themed posters on the walls and a little window that looks
  out over the sea.
  
  You can see a ladder, a bed and a rusty
  table (on which are a sinker and an ancient
  key) here.
  
  You can only go north (to Climbing a narrow stair) from here.
  
  > Go north
  A narrow stair climbs through a seam in the rocks from the jetty to the top of the island cliffs. The steps are carved from the rock itself. Vines covered in tiny white flowers hide the rough
  rock walls.
  
  south (to In a haphazard shack on the edge of a cliff)
  east (to At a crossing of paths)
  west (to On a small pier)
  
  > Go east
  This is where the paths crossing the island meet. There's not much here besides some grass and some assorted shrubbery.
  
  The somber woman hides herself under her wide sun hat. Every
  time you look at her, she's just then turning away.
  
  There is a raft of ducks here. They seem preoccupied with
  their own internal politics and haven't any attention to spare for you.
  
  You can also see an old beeper, a gas can, a
  fishing pole (with the hook charm), a
  picture, a letter, a tomcod, a fish
  head, a rusty hook, a sign post and a
  tourist board here.

  west (to Climbing a narrow stair)
  
  > go north
  Sorry, the rest of the island isn't ready yet. You could try fishing.
  
  > Go east
  Sorry, the rest of the island isn't ready yet. Captain
  Spideris just to the west.
  
  > Go south
  Sorry, the rest of the island isn't ready yet. Why don't you talk to the somber woman?
  
  > talk to the woman
  You say hello to the somber woman.
  
  (You could ask the somber woman about herself, the
  lighthouse, the hook charm, the bracelet or
  the fire hydrant charm.)
  
  > examine the woman
  This woman wears a wide sun hat, a nondescript pale dress,
  and a very grim expression. Her nose combines with the set of
  her mouth in a very unfortunate way. It's not hard to imagine that her hat is pointy, and her cheeks warty. She's wearing a silver
  bracelet.
  
  > look at sun hat
  It is the sort of hat a tourist thinks they have to wear in the sun just because it has "sun" in the name. Actually the hat would function perfectly well at its intended purpose; that is, hiding the somber woman's bad hair day; even under overcast skies.
  
  > ask the woman about herself
  "Who, me? I'm Elizabeth, if it's that important to you."
  
  (You could ask Elizabeth about the lighthouse, the
  hook charm, the bracelet or the fire hydrant
  charm.)
  
  > Examine bracelet
  A silver charm bracelet of braided cord. There aren't any charms on it.
  
  > ask the woman about Lighthouse
  "Gerald loves lighthouses. Sometimes I wonder if he loves
  them more than he loves me."
  
  (You could ask Elizabeth about the hook charm, the
  bracelet, the fire hydrant charm or
  Gerald.)
  
  > ask the woman about Gerald
  "He does love his lighthouses.. that's why were here,"
  Elizabeth says.
  
  (You could ask Elizabeth about the hook charm, the
  bracelet or the fire hydrant charm.)
  
  > ask the woman about the bracelet
  "It's a charm bracelet. But it's a poor one, and not very charming. I've lost all the charms."
  
  Elizabeth sighs.
  
  (You could ask Elizabeth about the hook charm, the
  fire hydrant charm or charms.)
  
  > ask the woman about Lighthouse
  "Gerald loves lighthouses. Sometimes I wonder if he loves
  them more than he loves me."
  
  (You could ask Elizabeth about the hook charm, the
  fire hydrant charm or charms.)
  
  > ask Elizabeth about the charms
  There were quite a few of them, but I've lost them all. It looks like you've got all but six of them."
  
  (You could ask Elizabeth about the hook charm, the
  pelican charm, the fire hydrant charm, the
  thimble charm, the slipper charm or the
  lighthouse charm.)
  
  > ask Elizabeth about Lighthouse
  (the lighthouse charm)
  Elizabeth doesn't have anything specific to say about the
  lighthouse charm.
  
  (You could ask Elizabeth about the hook charm, the
  pelican charm, the fire hydrant charm, the
  thimble charm or the slipper charm.)
  
  > ask woman about the fire hydrant charm
  "That one was stolen by a sea gull. I was feeding it, and it swept down, and took the charm right off my wrist!"
  
  (You could ask Elizabeth about the hook charm, the
  pelican charm, the thimble charm or the slipper
  charm.)
  
  > ask Elizabeth about the thimble
  "Oh, I know where that one is," Elizabeth says. "It's in our
  room at the inn."
  
  (You could ask Elizabeth about the hook charm, the
  pelican charm or the slipper charm.)
  
  > ask Elizabeth about the pelican
  [Which do you mean, the 1) pelican charm or 2)
  Shoo?]
  
  > ask the woman about the hook charm
  "The ferry captain had it? I must have dropped it before I even got to the island."
  
  (You could ask Elizabeth about the pelican charm or
  the slipper charm.)
  
  > take the hook charm
  Taken.
  
  > show the hook charm to the woman
  "That's one of my lost charms! The hook charm!"
  Elizabeth exclaims. "Where did you find it? You're obviously
  doing a better job with them than I was. You should have the entire thing, then."
  
  Elizabeth removes the bracelet and hands it to you.
  
  > put the charm on the bracelet
  You put the hook charm on the bracelet.
  
  > Wear bracelet
  You put on the bracelet.
  
  > ask the woman about the charms
  "Oh! You've found my hook charm. There were quite a few of
  them, but I've lost them all. It looks like you've got all but five of them."
  
  (You could ask Elizabeth about the pelican charm or
  the slipper charm.)
  
  > ask the woman about the slipper charm
  "That was the very last one I had. I last saw it in that garden behind the inn."
  
  (You could ask Elizabeth about the pelican charm.)
  
  > ask the woman about the pelican charm
  "It was eaten by a pelican. Yes, I know."
  
  right now.
  (You've previously asked Elizabeth about herself,
  the lighthouse, the hook charm, the pelican
  charm, the bracelet, the fire hydrant charm,
  the thimble charm, the slipper charm, the
  lighthouse charm, Gerald and charms.)
  
  > examine the beeper
  This is a nasty old beeper. Nobody uses these things anymore, but somehow, it still works. It has a little LCD display which reads "TRY GOING NORTH".
  
  > Go west
  A narrow stair climbs through a seam in the rocks from the jetty to the top of the island cliffs. The steps are carved from the rock itself. Vines covered in tiny white flowers hide the rough
  rock walls.
