Nice!

“It leaves as soon as you pay your fare!”

Pretty sure that’s a dialogue exchange between Zanthia and a fairy ferryman from Kyrandia 2, although I don’t recall this word “Morningmist” - sounds like a beautiful name for a town.

Correct on all accounts!

As a kid, I thought the ferry being a fairy (with a nice belly and a bad mood) was a nice touch. And figuring out the windy woof as a non-native speaker made me feel a bit clever.

Over to you, Doom!

It’s a great shampoo and Febreze flavor, too.

I never figured it out Frown Solved it by throwing everything I had in that cauldron which - surprisingly - worked.

Whenever I smell morning mist, I’ll think of Zanthia.

But here’s a real quote:

“They call it a snap dragon. Because it will chomp on anything that gets within the tongue’s range. Which is just one of reasons why we should get rid of this thing. ASAP!”

Zork Grand Inquisitor had a snapdragon, and it turned out to be useful.

Regarding the quote, I’m pretty sure Lady Kestrel beat me to it!

Spot on! It’s one of those witty comments by Dalboz the talking lantern.

It is…?  Shifty Eyed
I could have sworn Dalboz says the snapdragon needs a chill pill. I remember because I’d never heard of chill pills and thought the game had made up a funny word.

It probably depended on when or how often you clicked on the snapdragon.

“They can’t do this to me!  You can’t do anything to a rich person that he doesn’t want.  So a couple of shady business deals went sour.  Is that any reason to run the most beloved _________ in ________ out on a rail?”
“Beloved?  The mayor declared a school holiday just so the kids could come and throw rocks at you.”

You get the chill pill comment when you first meet the snapdragon. This is what Dalboz says when you already got hold of it (a close-up of the item in the Frobozz Magic Viewer™).

This is from “Bone: Out From Boneville”, right at the beginning of the game!

I have two of the Bone games and tried both but never finished either. Are they any good?

You got it, VP!  The words in the blanks are Bone and Boneville.  I played the first game, which is fairly short, and loved the characters and the humor.  In fact, I ended up getting Jeff Smith’s book Bone: The Complete Cartoon Epic in One Volume.  It is terrific!

I’ll give them another try!

One of the cool things about these threads is being introduced to and reminded of all these cool titles from the past years.

Here’s another quote:

“The Sun? What is that? I think my mom mentioned it once before she threw me out for cutting class and chilling out all the time.”

“Didn’t you pay attention in Modern History Classes? The sun is a huge slow-motion nuclear explosion in space, shedding warmth on the people of planet.”

“Oh really. Well, you say the sun sends warmth, but I don’t see it anywhere. You must be an old dreamer.”

“DREAMER?! Ha Ha! How dare you! It’s up there, boy, but it’s beyond this cloud of soot which hangs of the city.”
