Section 7 Small Island

Chasm is west of Crash Site. "A seemingly bottomless pit descending deep into the ground disturbs the surface of the moon. You can go east."

Instead of going down in Chasm:

if the player is not wearing the antigravity boots:

say "That would be a dangerous proposition.";

if the player is wearing the antigravity boots:

say "You effortlessly float down into the cavern.";

continue the action.

Instead of jumping in Chasm:

say "You fall for a very long time but the ground catches up to you. So did your guilt, apparently.";

end the story saying "You have committed suicide."

Every turn while the player is in Chasm:

if Celina is angry and the player has the commlink:

say "Celina says, [one of]'You should consider throwing yourself down that hole.'[or]'Do us all a favor and jump.'[or]'Jump already.'[or]'Jump! Do it!'[or]'Throw yourself off that cliff for me.'[purely at random]";

continue the action.
