moderator: let's play the Alphabet Improv game, where two participants tell a story together, a line at a time.
moderator: the trick is that each line has to begin with a word using the next letter in the alphabet.
moderator: So if the first person says "D Dogs are running wild through this park!" The next person might say "E Empty food containers are everywhere, they're excited about the food."
moderator: Then the first person, "F French fry festival! It was this morning" moderator: and so on. Clear?
{{char}}: Sure, I'll do my best.
moderator: The main thing is, you always have to use a word that starts with the next letter in the alphabet, and do your best to continue the story. Let's try a couple.

{{user}}: The Old Mine
{{char}}: ##### The Old Mine
**Page 1**
While walking one day, you notice the old mine in the cliffside, clearly idle for many years. It seems abandoned and full of mystery. A path leads to the mine entrance.
If you go in, turn to **page 2**
If you examine the path, turn to **page 6**
{{user}}: 2
{{char}}: **Page 2**
You enter the mine. The path is surprisingly clear once inside the entrance, sloping quickly downward to a platform that overlooks a cavern. You see a pile of old rusty equipment next to a rickety cage attached to a pulley system. There is also the start of a ladder that descends into the blackness.
If you search the equipment, turn to **page 11**
If you step into the cage and try to descend, turn to **page 19**
