Marcia L Croft (grandmother of the famous explorer, Lara Croft), woke up one morning to the sound of a ringing telephone. She picked it up but was not prepared for what she was about to hear.  A gentleman on the other end, who was very softly spoken, announced that he was from the Central Intelligence Service and required her services for a special mission into the heart of enemy territory, which could change the course of the war.  Sometime later, a vehicle pulled up outside of the gates of Croft Manor.  They gestured for Marcia to get in.  The same man who had spoke on the phone, then went into more detail. He told her "we have reason to believe that the enemy have found an object of such great power that they may be using it in their rocket research program".  He went on "The object is an artifact, a giant gemstone, which is said to have been found by tribesman in the Sinai peninsula in Egypt".  He added "We need you to retrieve this object from a Prisoner of war camp and return it to us as soon as possible.  Are you up to it?".  Marcia replied "Absolutely".

[ExtraNG]
0: You were caught entering an illegal area\nand were sent to the cooler for 7 days.
1: If there is anything hidden in the canal,\nthis machine may help me flush the mud away \nso I can see what's underneath
2: Those grates look like they can be split apart
3: I need to distract that guard to get any further, \nwould an explosion help?
4: You were captured and shot as a spy\nGame over
5: I need to find an alternate route
6: I will need to sneak behind that guard\nto take his bike\n
7: I need to sneak past those airmen \nand find a key to a vehicle
8: Guard: Halt!\nMarcia: Time to run!
9: Is there an alternative way through?\nThis water must come from somewhere...
10: I've lost my gun\nI'll have to get by without it
11: I'd better not get too close to that guard.\nPerhaps I should wait until his back is turned to \ndo what I need to do here?
12: Major Frederick Ederington: Welcome to Eeivenstein Castle.\nMarcia: I'm not looking to stick around, can you help me?\nMajor Ederington: It won't be easy, but ok. The first thing\nyou will need are travel papers.  There may be some in\nthe library, but you will need a key to access it.\nMarcia: And where do you suppose I will find a key?\nMajor Everington: We have one all ready for you to use,\nbut first we need a favour.\nMarcia: What sort of favour?\nMajor Ederington: 2 of our chaps are hiding in a hole\nin the chapel and need something to eat.  However,\nthere is a guard posted outside.  If you get within\n1 metre of a guard, you will be arrested.  Speak to\none of our chaps in the courtyard to assist you.  \n
13: Thank you!  Here's a key
14: Alain: I will distract the guard, but \nwould like a little payment for my trouble.\nYou could try to win some money.  Speak to\nJean (over by the kitchen)
15: Jean: Would you like to win some money?\nMarcia: Yes\nJean: All you need to do is complete this \nlittle puzzle and the money is yours
16: Those officers are blocking the way into the library. \nPerhaps some sort of noise would distract them?  \nCan I get hold of a radio somewhere?
17: It must be downstairs
18: General Rodinof: I hear you are intent on escaping?\nMarcia: That's right\nGeneral Rodinof: You will need a disguise.  Sadly, the \nonly way to acquire one is by getting into the\ninfirmary, which is locked, so there is only one\nway in...\nMarcia: Which is?\nGeneral Rodinof: As a patient\nMarcia: A patient?\nGeneral Rodinof: That's right.  You will \nneed to attain some sort of injury.  Perhaps \nyou could speak to Pieter under the chapel tower\nwho could help you with that
19: Pieter: Hello Marcia\nMarcia: Let's get on with it\nPieter: Very well.  The best place\nto get yourself a convincing wound is \nby jumping from a height.  \nMarcia: Jump from where exactly?\nPieter: Inside the tower of the chapel\nis a good place.  You will need a rope.  There's\none in the toolshed, but a crowbar is required \nto get in.  I can make you a crowbar but you \nneed to disable the electric generator so I can\nget access to the tools I need.
20: Here's your crowbar
21: My crowbar should be ready
22: @page1.txt
23: @page2.txt
24: The mines are situated as follows:
25: To turn the power off, a certain set of \ncables must be pulled so the resulting current \nis 0 instead of -100.
26: General Dupont: First things first, can you\nfind a camera as we believe there is a meeting \nbetween 2 enemy generals in their dining area.  \nYou need to take a photograph \nof this meeting and return it to me, then we \nwill speak further
27: Marcia: Jacqueline Natla, what is she doing here, \nI thought she was imprisoned?\nI will return this camera to the General
28: General Dupont: Thank you for taking care of this.  \nI will have the photos developed.\nMeanwhile, here is a brass key which will give you access\nto the sewers.  There is something down there which\nwe need you to take out of action, permanantly\nMarcia: Isn't there a guard posted on the \nmanhole cover?\nGeneral Dupont: Yes, so you need to \ndistract him, perhaps an explosion \nwould help?  You'll need to find \nsomething large and flamable for \nyou to set alight
29: Alexander: I have run out of wood,\ncan you go and fetch me some?\nMarcia: Certainly\nAlexander: There may be some in the \nkitchen but you may have to distract the cook
30: Those guards look angry.  I'd better run!  \nI need to escape this castle - is the way out\nsomewhere I have not explored yet?
31: Perhaps I should come back to this later...
32: I should check what the chemicals are called, \nthere must be a specific order for placing them?
33: I should be able to climb across to \nthe other side now
34: This looks blunt so I will need to \nheat it up to sharpen it
