((a quick edit - "diamagnetic" should have been "paramagnetic". I fixed this in previous posts.))

If you're going to sift through lots of complicated books, you might as well look the part. You take out the felt pen and slide it behind your ear. You search through the book pile near the bookshelf door and sort through the titles. Among the technical manuals, you find a book labeled Electromagnetic Theory: Problems and Solutions and flip it open. Flipping through the index leads you to several pages on the application of ferromagnetism, but no clear-cut definition. What you discern is that ferromagnetic materials are those that readily form permanent magnets, such as iron, cobalt and nickel. You flip to the section regarding paramagnetic materials, and they are defined as "atoms, molecules and compounds with unpaired electrons in the s,p,d or f orbitals. These materials, when placed in an external magnetic field, will repel from the poles of the magnet. Some of these include magnesium, lithium and oxygen."

Through several minutes of extensive searching, you can find no literature on anything having to do with a "Phoenix Project" here.

You go to the circuit breaker and turn everything but the circuit labeled "SECURITY DOOR" to the 'On' position. As soon as you flip the first one back on, you hear the loud CLINK of the lock on the bookcase slide forcefully back into place.
The circuit breaker is now in the following position:

Frustrated that you aren't an engineer or scientist, you grit your teeth, clench your right hand into a fist and slam it into the wall. Your whole arm rings when you hit a piece of rebar sticking out of the concrete. The ringing pain reminds you that in the maintenance log note, Mr. Coveralls wrote about something specific being left in the hallway with the security system making it go haywire, like a certain metal.

Since there are no candles anywhere in the house and all of the statues are friendly and not suspicious at all, (since there are none either) you resort to picking up a dusty porcelain flower vase high over your head and throwing it to the ground.
Damn, no rupees.

> Use the claw hammer to smash up the drywall around the piece of rebar, see if you can pull it out or find anything else interesting in the wall.

Was the house directly against the mountain or do I misrecall that? Too lazy to go back and look right now :[

> Go outside, walk perimeter of the cabin, see what you see. Get onto the roof and look around if possible, maybe by climbing up point where cabin wall meets mountain wall. Perhaps construct grappling hook from jumper cables in car + ski pole.

> Explore bedroom.

Things like this have a story in TL of never getting finished due to author's lazyness or TL derailing the flow of the game by making retarded suggestions.

Oh man this story just drew me in like a sucker. the atmosphere so great i almost felt like I was there and I got the creeps reading it.

I'm so sad you won't be finishing this, I think you're an amazing writer. If you just had a bigger audience you'd get some smart people to figure things out. Maybe this can be moved to the general or sports and games section. I feel like this blog is of so high quality that it deserves it.

Last post for a while from me. I'm going to be offline looking for him.

You can point to this as evidence that I believe morality and legality are not intrinsically linked. I.e., although it is completely legal for gdroxor to stop this story, it is not moral. Therefore, I will morally punish him, although perhaps not legally.

If you know him, ask him if he can get started on his new story(or if he wants to finish this one), would be pretty cool.
