Your boss screams out as you bolt out of the ''Hairy Hotel''. You've finally hit your limit in dealing with this abusive prick and decided to leave once and for all.

''"We haven't had any new members join our society in 4 years! The quality of beings have certainly dropped within this decade. Maybe you'll be different!
We want to keep the Blobgoose fed and happy so sometimes we just abduct fodder too huehuehue."''

''"Well uhh... okay? ...AHEM! GOOD!! Those toilets won't clean themselves!"''
//You can't even explain what you've just been through, but you know you'd much rather be here than on planet Goblin, you wonder if the Glowing orb must have been left by another being that occupied the space before you.
Either way, it's gone now and you made it out alive! Going out there now would probably result you in getting abducted again, you almost barf at the thought of seeing Geraldig again while you scrub away in the Hotel restroom.//
