Shadow Knight ***WALKTHROUGH*** [Spoiler] (TSTOTopix & jginsberg145)

Video Game Of Thrones (Non-Objective Quest, Requires Level 6)

Shadow Knight – TREMBLE BEFORE THE CHAOTIC EVIL POWER OF THE SHADOW KNIGHT!
Milhouse – Whoa, that’s your coolest outfit yet! But I don’t understand how you have it, Bart.
Shadow Knight – I AM NOT BART! I AM THE SHADOW KNIGHT — THE MOST FEARED WARRIOR IN ALL OF EARTHLAND REALMS!
Milhouse – Right. But Earthland Realms is a made-up place from a videogame.
Milhouse – This is the very real place of post-apocalyptic Springfield. It doesn’t make sense for you to be here.
Shadow Knight – AWHAT ABOUT ABRAHAM LINCOLN? OR KANG AND KODOS? OR CHESTER DUPREE?
Shadow Knight – Jeez Buzzkill-house, you’re starting to sound like my sister.

Metagaming Pt. 1 (Requires Level 12)
Objective – Place Shadow Knight’s Throne
Objective – Make Shadow Knight Question His Existence
Reward – $100 and 10 XP

Shadow Knight – PREPARE TO TASTE THE COLD STEEL OF THE SHADOW KNIGHT’S SWORD!
Shadow Knight – You’re supposed to call me Shadow Knight.
Milhouse – I’m not sure it’d be possible for anyone to taste anything of yours. You’re just an avatar from a videogame, remember?
Shadow Knight – UGH! THIS AGAIN?!
Shadow Knight – Look, I’ve been thinking — what if we just admit that this is all a videogame? That’s how we got that barbarian guy in here.
Barbarian – Smithers and me am talking marriage. Does Homer still do that?
Shadow Knight – Man, I forgot how far that story went off the rails.
Milhouse – But even though we’re in a videogame, you’re still from a videogame inside us.
Shadow Knight – Exactly! So we’re both from videogames. I’m just on the wrong server, or got a computer virus, or telnet-url-imdb-something…
Milhouse – Sorry Bart, but Earthland Realms isn’t another game — it’s a game within the game. It can’t be real in our world because we’ve already defined it as fake.

Metagaming Pt. 2
Objective – Make Shadow Knight Continue To Question His Existence
Reward – $100 and 10 XP

Milhouse – Still wrestling with your existence, Shadow Knight?
Shadow Knight – No. I just want to go on a killing spree. I saw it in my task list.
Shadow Knight – It just seems so unfair. My mom was a witch. Homer’s been a million things.
Shadow Knight – Even Ned Flanders got to be the devil, with kick-* flames shooting out him!
Milhouse – We could have every Futurama character there is walking around — if it weren’t such a legal hassle — because they’re from a parallel universe.
Shadow Knight – But isn’t Earthland Realms a parallel universe?
Milhouse – I know, pretty much anyone can be anything… as long as they come from a parallel universe.
Shadow Knight – But isn’t Earthland Realms a parallel universe?
Milhouse – Come on, Bart — a universe can’t be parallel to the universe that contains it. It’s the first rule of story-telling.
Milhouse – Please, a universe can’t be parallel to the universe that contains it. It’s the first rule of story-telling.
Milhouse – You, my friend, are fictional.
Shadow Knight – That’s it! That can be my explanation!
Milhouse – Do you really want to do that story?
Shadow Knight – No. I just want to go on a killing spree. I saw it in my task list.

Metagaming Pt. 3
Objective – Reach Level 13 and Build Android’s Dungeon
Objective – Make Shadow Knight Play “Swords and Slaughter”
Reward – $100 and 10 XP

Shadow Knight – *weary sigh*
Milhouse – Where are you going, Shadow Knight?
Shadow Knight – To kill myself by jumping off a bridge. I just have to find a road square placed over a water square.
Milhouse – Don’t do that. Just because the logic of your existence is in doubt, doesn’t mean you can’t have a little fun.
Shadow Knight – I’m just a game within a game. What could I do that’d be fun?
Milhouse – Play a game?

Metagaming Pt. 4
Objective – Make Shadow Knight Go on a Killing Spree
Reward – $100 and 10 XP

Shadow Knight -Did you see my berserker ranger kill that army of orcs? God, it was awesome!
Milhouse – I just didn’t understand how a medieval knight could have lock-on targeting, or a heads-up-display, or carry so many throwing axes…
Shadow Knight – Who cares? It reminded me of the cardinal rules of videogames — things don’t have to make sense as long as they’re fun!
Milhouse – I don’t know. I like how in Assassin’s Creed they spend the first two hours of the game explaining how your interface and abilities are from a near-future technology allowing you to replay your ancestors past encoded in the DNA of–
Milhous - *getting stabbed noise*
Milhouse – *getting stabbed noise*
Shadow Knight – No. What was fun about that game was what’s fun about every game… killing people!
Shadow Knight - THE SHADOW KNIGHT IS BACK!
