The grue is a sinister, lurking presence in the dark places of the earth. Its favorite target of disapproval is adventurers, but its insatiable disapproval is tempered by its fear of light. No grue has ever been seen by the light of day, and few have survived its fearsome disapprovals to tell the tale.

A hollow voice says, "Cretin!"
Zork. My God, I'm old.
The same thought ran through my mind.
