You believe that it use to look like majestic with a solid black throughout with the designs in the center intact but now it's just a shadow of what it use to be. The door is crumble before your eyes, with pieces of obsidian just magically chipping off and then falling to the Earth. For some reason, even though it's losing its mass at a quick rate, it seems to never run out of rock to be disintegrated. This door reminds you of something eerie, to you, it kind of looks like a tombstone. The way it crumbles looks like old tombstones and the general shape of it, a half oval also reminds you of a tombstone, and death.â€

Bowser's Chamber is north of the green door. "You feel the heat as you walk into the mystical chamber. Thereâ€™s a minefield of lava puddles and the only object is a giant throne.

Bowser is a person in the Bowser's Chamber. 

Description of Bowser is "A ferocious monster is the kindest way to describe Bowser. He has tuft of fiery red hair on-top of his menacing face. He grins, looking slightly amused as his two red eyes landed on you. Everytime that Bowser takes a breath, smoke spews out of his nostrils and a little bit of fire trickles out of his mouth. You suddenly realize that he could kill you in an instant with his sharp claws and powerful jaw of razor like teeth. You sweat a little bit as you notice that the thereâ€™s no way to defeat him, his emerald green shell is impossible to penetrate and he can just bellyflop onto you and youâ€™ll be game over.

This mushroom looks very healthy, like it was tended by expert gardeners but the mushroom is plucked out of the Earth so you have no idea where itâ€™s getting its nutrients. Thereâ€™s a smell to the mushroom. It seems likeâ€¦ freshness. Itâ€™s almost impossible to describe but smells like the breeze of the forest, even though the breezes of the forest is odourless, you can for sure pinpoint that thatâ€™s what the mushroom smells like. Legend says that the ancients of nature have trapped the essences of the Earth inside this mushroom because a prophet has foretold that one day, the Earth will be contaminated with unnatural mechanisms and this mushroom will cleanse the world once the essence is realised. Youâ€™re pretty sure that by eating the mushroom, you will realise the essences but do you really want to do that? It said that it will cleanse the unnatural mechanisms so will it destroy all pieces and technology and all structures that humanity has made. Youâ€™re not sure thatâ€™ll happen but would you risk it?"

Description of Super Leaf is "Youâ€™re holding a leaf. It has a papery feel and itâ€™s probably really fragile. You look at and think whatâ€™s so special about this, then you jump out of your skin as two eyes look right back at you. The leaf has two large red eyes that stares at you. You feel your legs go weak and your mind start slipping away. At the last second you look away from the leaf and all the symptoms stop. You now understand that this leaf posses forces of evil and probably shouldnâ€™t be looked at again."

Description of Crown is "You marvel at the beauty of the metal and the gems on the crown you hold. It looks pretty weathered with scratches here and there and there are a few dents marks and chips but the most important thing is the elegant design of the crown. There is a giant crystal clear blue sapphire in the shape of an elongated hexagon and surrounding that is two circular blood red rubies. The value of each gem must be in the thousands.

The White door is a closed door. 

Description of White Door is "As you approach the massive door, you notice something odd. The door is levitating. It seems quite impossible as the door isnâ€™t much of a door. Itâ€™s a giant polished marble stone slab that has intricate designs with the spirits of the dead. You then realize that the carved designs on the door are moving. You approach the designs and touch it, you realize that itâ€™s responsive to you. The spirits shift their body towards you and you immediately back off. You shouldnâ€™t mess around any longer and just enter the door."

The White door is north of Magikoopaâ€™s Chamber.

King Boo's Chamber is north of the White door. "You walk into a wall of darkness as you enter the room. It takes some time for your eyes to adjust to the faint light, you see thereâ€™s a glowing white ball in the center. It hovers above the ground and bobs a little every so often. You stay completely still and you canâ€™t take it anymore. You take one step and then the blob faces you. For some reason it's not looking at you, it's blushing and putting itâ€™s handsâ€¦ well the closest anatomy part to hands over his eyes."

King Boo is a person in the King Boo's Chamber. 

Description of King Boo is â€œA ghostly white figure stands in from you. More like it floats in front of you. It levitates, making no noise at all. The King of the Boos is kind of like a wall of mist, it moves around randomly and you can see right through him. The only distant feature about him is his pitch black eyes and a gaping mouth with a wagging tongue, closely resembling ones of a dog, just ten times bigger. He has a worried look on his face, and has a few tears rolling down his cheeks. He doesnâ€™t look as scary now but you know that he has the powers to turn you into boo. Your heart gets twisted as you watch the boo cry silently, you think you should go talk to him, your conscience will kill you if you donâ€™t." 

the White Mushroom is an Object

Description of White Mushroom is â€œThe White Mushroom you're holding is giving off an eerie white glow. It has a polka dotted cap with a dark gray tint for the spots and pure white for the rest of the mushroom. The stalk of the mushroom is shriveled up like it got the life sucked out of it and the mushroom looks almost transparent, kind of like a ghostly mirage. It feels cold against your hand and the longer you interact with it, you more youâ€™re sure thereâ€™s dread coursing through your veins. Thereâ€™s a legend about a mushroom thatâ€™s description completely matches the one youâ€™re holding. It says that the souls of the damned were imprisoned in this mushroom and are just waiting to fly out and escape. You're pretty sure that this is the mushroom from the legends and you're pretty sure you donâ€™t want to touch it, much less eat it. Youâ€™ll have to summon all your courage to do that.â€

Every turn when the player can see King Boo: say â€œKing Boo: Ummmmmmmm. Hi. How...How are you. Iâ€™m usually not like this, Iâ€™m royalty but Iâ€™ve lost something important...â€

Instead of giving the Crown to King Boo:
say "Oh thank you, thank you, thank you! This is just what I was looking for. This crown has been passed down by my family so one day I can rule over the Boos. I now have authority to control my people and be able to take my rightful in place in my throne.
