Last Play (02):

UZMA the Goblin helped Matilda, Farmer Brown’s wife, defeat the garlic-eating rabbits who were cursed by Baaron Von Krolock by throwing a magic carrot into Mama rabbit’s mouth.

I have recently started playing this game called Genesis MUD. It’s an old school fantasy rpg game, and it’s free to play online!

Because this game is text-based, it’s fun to let my imagination run wild and illustrate how I see the story unfolding in my mind. I’ll explain briefly some things that I did.
