>Chase after Wriggle and eat her

>You head north, chasing after Wriggle! This quickly becomes problematic as you are not much of a runner in the best circumstances, and moreso because that bellyful of raw sardines is jostled enough to declare enough is enough. You quickly lose interest in the chase in favor of throwing up on the side of the road.
>Your current condition is: Shaky and needing some water.
>You are currently at an empty S-bend in the road. Aside from a fallen branch, there is little of interest here. Obvious exits are north and south.

>You interrupt. "Oh, I didn't see you there!' says Lyrica, as she slows down the tune to about one third tempo. "Glad you liked it!"

"I'm sick of stupid jazz and Merlin is sick of classical and Lunasa doesn't like techno!" answers Lyrica, making a face at the last bit, "But I'll show 'em!"
