Aspen bowed, "Yes, My Lord." Aspen turned and headed to the house, but he stopped after a few steps before turning back to face his Lord, "I have some Earl Grey and scones waiting for you in your study, My Lord."<br/><br/>Then Aspen turned back around and headed inside to show the guest some<span style="font-style: italic">hospitality.</span><br/><br/>~*~*~*~*~*~*~<br/><br/>Mr. Kroger felt like he was being watched, but he dismissed it as a fluke. "The little twerp won't know what hit him. He probably doesn't realize that I sold the company in Czech and took all of the money from there either... The employees? Who cares about them... Che, I need to go. Bye." Mr. Kroger hung up the phone and quickly made his way back to... he was lost and he still felt like someone was watching him.<br/><br/>He turned to go down a hallway, but it wasn't lit well. Then right as he was turning to go a different direction, he saw ghosts. Mr. Kroger jumped and quickly turned tail and ran. But even as he ran, he still saw blank white faces with black eye holes and mouths.<br/><br/><span style="color: gray">You see specters in the catacombs. Move back 1 space.</span><br/><br/>Then he fell down the staircase and broke his right arm.<br/><br/><span style="color: gray">You lose an arm. You can only move half as far.</span><br/><br/>He was on the first floor and it was hard to get up, but he did and ran. He got shocked out of his skin and fell to the ground when the butler suddenly appeared.<br/><br/>"Where are you heading?"<br/><br/>He tried to get up, but he kept on trying to use his broken arm's hand.<br/><br/>"The hospitality is not at it's end. Dinner will be done shortly."<br/><br/>He managed to scoot himself back a few paces with his legs before finally getting up and moving away quickly. The butler followed while saying, "After all, once you lose your arm you can only move half as far. So why not sit down and relax?"<br/><br/>When the butler said this, he turned his head to look back and the butler was smiling. So he ran and opened a random door and went in. In the dim light, he saw what looked like a small cabinet and hopped in.<br/><br/>"Englishmen have small cabinets." He heard the butler come into the room and then there was light. And heat. A slot in the cabinet door opened and the butler's eyes looked in at him.<br/><br/>"My what an impatient guest, to put your hands on the dinner that's in the oven."<br/><br/>"O-o-oven!" Mr. Kroger immediately tried to open the now identified oven, but it was locked. So he banged on the oven door while shouting at the butler, "Open up! Open this thing!"<br/><br/>The butler stood back from the oven and said, "Don't you know, there are many dishes in England that use meat tallow?" Then the butler closed the opening to the oven.<br/><br/><span style="color: gray">You fall into a raging fire.</span><br/><br/>~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~<br/><br/>The only thing that was heard for miles was an agonizing scream.<br/><br/>~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~<br/><br/>Aspen entered his Lord's study and bowed. "Forgive me, My Lord, I didn't take into account that the oven would malfunction while preparing dinner. I'm afraid it will take a little longer than usual to prepare your dinner."
