First off, I'd just like to say this was my fault. Completely and totally. It's still complete bullshit. A 2 second mistake in judgement cost me pretty much everything, or so it seems.
Notice how the janitor takes my backpack, which has my registered PP enhancer in it, my 5x enchanting project, and left the 1x crap mail on the floor.
>405 mail
Voodoo '405 mail' to 'PREPARE 405', 'CAST AT mail'.
You gesture and invoke the powers of the elements for the Elemental Detection spell...
Your spell is ready.
>
You gesture at some chain mail.
The underlying patterns of essence within the chain mail indicate that it has been enchanted, and you notice your own enchanter's mark on it. You recognize the vibrant red aura surrounding it as indicating a weak level of enchantment.
Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.

You gesture at some chain mail.
The layers of essence permeating the chain mail unfold before you to reveal the familiar patterns of a tempering enchanting project, which you recognize as one of your own. It is currently tempered and ready to be enchanted. It is on the final step of the enchanting process. You recognize the vibrant red aura surrounding it as indicating a weak level of enchantment.
Cast Roundtime 3 Seconds.
>925 my mail
Voodoo '925 my mail' to 'PREPARE 925', 'CAST AT my mail'.
You trace a series of glowing runes while chanting the phrase for Enchant Item...
Your spell is ready.
>
You gesture at some chain mail.
Lacking sufficient mana, you struggle to control the magical energy of your spell.
Visible wisps of essence dance across the surface of the chain mail as you chant quietly, your sure gestures guiding them to slowly coalesce into small softly glowing runic symbols. Glancing over the formation of the runes, your chant falters as you notice their forms contorting oddly. You gather something has gone terribly wrong.
Suddenly, the chain mail blossoms into a growing ball of intense white flame, the ensuing explosion sending metallic debris through the air. The chain mail being in your hand, you take the brunt of the blast!
... 43 points of damage!
Hard strike removes the right eye and a goodly bit of skull!

It seems you have died, my friend. Although you cannot do anything, you are keenly aware of what is going on around you...
You realize that you have no outstanding favors which Lorminstra owes you, and without having accomplished a deed for Her, your soul is in danger of vanishing from the land forever!

Walls of rough-hewn oak and a dusty oak floor covered by a tasseled cotton rug enclose this small room. In one corner lies a simple stick cot, and near the cot sits a sturdy oak table. Above a small firepit hangs an Estate Holder plaque. The room holds a lingering scent of sulphur. You also see a crimson rune-stitched backpack, some chain mail and a door.

DEAD>depart confirm
The world before you dissolves into a grainy montage of color...
You find yourself wandering amidst endless streaming light and vast nothingness. This place feels torn between two powers, polar opposites vying for your loyalty. You are surrounded by the spirits of those who could not choose. The only way out seems to be through light or darkness.
Time has no meaning as you wander aimlessly amidst the uncomfortable tugging for your attention. Hopelessness washes over dreams you once held like the creeping tide of doom.
After what could be moments, or perhaps an eternity, the goddess Lorminstra finds you wandering in the endless space and speaks soothingly to you. She gently reassembles the pieces of your tattered soul and then, taking you by the hand, the goddess leads you back to mortality...
You feel drained!

Somewhere nearby a nest of robins is alive with the cries of hungry young. Awnings, in striped patterns of various shades, stand out from the whitewashed facades of the shops along the street. The pattern of woven ivy and fir garlands, strung from the wrought iron lamps lining the street, creates dancing shadows across the cobblestones below as the moonlight strikes it.

Long garlands of mixed foliage have been strung over the street in a criss-cross pattern.

The candlelit windows of the bank illuminate the sky above creating an eerie, yet comforting sight. The cottages that line the back wall and the corner of Honeysuckle Avenue and Rose Avenue seem small and unimportant compared to the towering bank rising up in the distance. A plot of land just before the corner of the street has been left vacant, and over the years has become a gathering place for the moderately infamous and less desirable citizens of the town. You also see a wood and wrought iron barrel.

Outside a local shop, a small evergreen has been neatly trimmed into the shape of a seated rolton. Someone has attached two small black discs to emulate the eyes. Another bush has been carved into the likeness of a small halfling and stands nearly three feet high, its entire body wreathed in blossoms of an intriguing, pale purple hue. Silver moonlight strikes the figures from an awkward angle, creating shadows that shudder and curl across the cobblestones. You also see a painted driftwood shop.

Beneath a moonlit sky full of twinkling stars lies a field of wheat dusted with wildflower blossoms.

Water trickles down from the mountain above, gently cascading into a pond here before continuing its way through the hills in the form of a small stream.
