>A few moments later, the sales clerk returns carrying a tray of gleaming diamonds. He sets the tray down gently on the counter in front of you. "If you'd care to take a look at these," he says softly.
>You look down at the dazzling array of diamonds. They all look the same to you except for one. One of the diamonds casts a blue-white light that seems to signal to you. You can't take your eyes off it. 'Til take that one," you say, your voice trembling.
>"Oh, no! Not that one!" the sales clerk cries "Please don't buy that one. That diamond has a curse on it!"
>"Ha ha! A curse?!" you exclaim. "Come on don't be so corny!"
>"This is an ancient diamond that just happens to come with an ancient curse," — the clerk insists, holding onto the counter- top tightly. "I'd really advise you not to buy this one."
>You stare down at the beautiful jewel.
>You feel drawn to it, pulled into it, hypnotized by it.
>You must decide. Will you buy it despite the curse?
>Or will you decide not to take the chance in case a curse really exists and buy something else?

>Buy the diamond? Turn to PAGE 44.
>Don't buy it? Turn to PAGE 87.

The wealthy have real problems. Most neets just have to worry about whether to buy ginger or straberry flavour fat little lamb. Do we want the cursed diamond or not?
