* Understanding things by their properties
|
|
(Torch understood as flaming or extinguished; Hymenaeus)
|
|
Understanding "flaming torch" and "extinguished torch" to refer to torches when lit and unlit.
|
|
|
|
{*}"Hymenaeus"
|
|
|
|
A torch is kind of thing. Understand the lit property as describing a torch. Understand "lighted" or "flaming" or "burning" as lit. Understand "extinguished" as unlit. A torch is usually lit.
|
|
|
|
Before printing the name of a lit torch, say "flaming ".
|
|
Before printing the name of an unlit torch, say "extinguished ".

The Wedding Procession is a room.
|
|
|
|
Orpheus is a man in the Wedding Procession. Orpheus carries a torch.
|
|
Eurydice is a woman in the Wedding Procession. Eurydice carries a torch.

Rule for writing a paragraph about someone (called target):
|
|
say "[The target] carries [a list of things carried by the target]."
|
|
|
|
Every turn:
|
|
if a random chance of 1 in 2 succeeds and a torch is lit:
|
|
let target torch be a random lit torch;
|
|
now the target torch is unlit;
|
|
say "Aquilo blows down from the north, extinguishing the torch carried by [the holder of the target torch]."
|
|
|
|
Instead of examining a lit torch:
|
|
say "It casts a bright glow over [the holder of the noun]."
|
|
Instead of examining an unlit torch:
|
|
say "[The holder of the noun] is looking at it disconsolately, obviously worried about the omens."

Test me with "z / z / z / look / x flaming torch / x extinguished torch". |
