Muller on Happy Happy, Carnage Carnage (third on the left, top of map)

Happy Happy, Carnage Carnage

First meeting remark

I knew that someone would eventually
follow us. It's been over fifty years, hasn't
it? Is the war still going on?

war
What war? The second great war.

no

How can I trust you that the war is over?
You must be losing, Yankee, or you would not
lie like that.

yes

Make up your mind. Is the second great war
still being fought?

yes

I thought the war might continue for a great
length of time. How are your people holding
off the invasion of the States?

no

Make up your mind. Is the second great war
still being fought?

name

I am Muller, these are the last of my men.

men
We were sent by a university in Munich on an
archaeological expedition.

university (or) Munich (or) archaeological (or) expedition
We were looking for several lost Mayan
artifacts.

Mayan (or) artifacts
There is a fortune in ancient relics behind
these doors. We almost retrieved them, but
died after we had killed all the monsters
guarding it.

doors
That rune painted on the floor will open the
three doors in front of you and open the
treasure room. We killed all the monsters
inside, there's no danger.

death

We were attacked by many strange
monsters, and my men panicked and we were
killed.

monsters
We didn't expect to find strange beasts like
we discovered here. We were entirely
unprepared ...

glass (or) vial (or) imprisoned (or) demon

No one should have told you about the vial!
Who said that? Friedrich? I'll kill him...

Friedrich
Friedrich was my second in command. He
was the only one who stood by me and at the
end. All the others tried to run.

kill

Or maybe not.

Walter

I sent Walter to retrieve something, but it
is a worthless archaeological artifact.
You'd have no interest in it.

interest
Nothing you'd be interested in.

wooden (or) box

People have told you about the cedar box? It
is an art object of great value, but is
otherwise useless.

Hans

Hans was a fool.

Joachim

Joachim was lazy and insubordinate.

grenades

I allowed the men to use their grenades
early, and it didn't leave us any for later,
like we needed.

alien (or) pipes

You probably already know how to use the
pipes. The doors at the base of the pyramid
are almost always sealed and there's no
other way to get down.

crystals (or) blue (or) yellow (or) violet

I know nothing about the crystals.

gold (or) key

I gave Walter a gold key, and told him he
was looking for a fortune in gold, but I was
only appealing to his sense of greed. There
is no gold.


Any word that doesn't trigger a new conversation will elicit the following replies:

Sorry I can't help you with that.

Try to be more clear, I don't understand.

I don't understand what you mean


Additional Notes

There is a nice touch in this Conversation. If you respond to Muller's war question Is the war still going on? by saying no you get the following reponse:

How can I trust you that the war is over?
You must be losing, Yankee, or you would not
lie like that.

If you happen to change your mind at this point you then get:

Make up your mind. Is the second great war
still being fought?

If you say yes you get:

I thought the war might continue for a great
length of time. How are your people holding
off the invasion of the States?

The same happens (but in reverse) if you start off by saying yes first, then change your mind and finally saying no. In otherwords Muller will not believe the war is over.

Muller will respond to a number of interesting external triggers.

No response to the names Gunther, Claude or Behrens.

No second meeting remark.

Thanks to Dustin Westphal <bachus@rdc-cybersign.com> for pointing out that Muller will respond to the words gold or key. This is an external trigger from Friedrich. When you ask Friedrich about Walter he replies:

Muller gave Walter a gold key and sent him
to recover a large amount of gold and a
strange wooden box.

Of course you have to remember to ask Muller about the gold key or gold. :-)

Muller will respond to the colors Blue, Yellow or Violet but not Orange, Green or Black. Ok so he didn't know all the crystals. ;-)
