Legend of the Black Rose

Legend of the Black Rose is several things.

• It is a homage to an ancient game known as Legend of the Red Dragon, created a very long time ago.
• It is a homage to an ancient era of text-based games with limited actions per day back when that was still cool.
• It is a homage to a world known as Arcydea, which has over 20 years of playtime and a fairly long history.
• It is a game that just never seems to go away, having been around in various incarnations for at least ten years.

Now that that's out of the way, let's start work.
