print("You're a junior science officer from Deep Space 9 backpacking in the beautiful mountains on Bajor. \nAs you walk through the forst, black clouds gather in the sky and fat raindrops begin to fall. You spot a crack in the mountain side, and run to take shelter. It's actually long tunnel going down into the mountain, and in the distance there is a faint light.  \nExploration is your business, you move toward the light.  At the end of the tunnel you emerge into a cave with an altar bearing an orb to your left and an Iconian gateway to your right.\n")

leaveCave = "\nYou leave the cave, contact the station to report the discovery of a new orb and a gateway. They will send the chief science officer and an away team to investigate, and you are recalled to the station to report. You receive a commendation from Starfleet and the Vedek Assembly holds a formal reception to honor your discovery, but you missed your opportunity for adventure. Game over."
approachOrb = "\nAs you walk toward the orb, it emits swirls of light that envelop you.  You have an orb vision -- you're in a library, an archive, surrounded by artifacts, scrolls, books, works of art, data chips, outdated technology.  Outside, you can hear the sounds of a fierce battle -- phaser fire, explosions, battle cries and screams of pain.  \nPeople are hastily packing crates.  One woman takes an artifact out of a glass case, and dismantles it, handing one piece and a scroll each to three archivists.  'Run, go, hide these on your home planets.  When the time is right, they will be reunited to aid the Emissary.' The three archivists flee. You recognize one as a Vulcan, but the other two are species you've never seen before. The light brightens to blinding white, then fades, and you are back in the cave standing before the orb. Behind you, the gateway is now fixed -- it's showing you the ceremonial grounds on Vulcan. \nDo you a) walk through the gateway to Vulcan, or b) leave the cave: "
