A creature lies asleep in a room.
The creature wakes up.
The creature stretches itself out ready to face another day! What a weird dream she had.
Oh.
Oh this is not what the creature wanted to see. She is not in her home, and this place feels...rancid. What will the creature do?

Oh my gosh, I can see!
Try the door-shaped outline on the wall. When this inevitably turns out to be locked, try reading the book.
DO NOT drink the glass of water. You may end up being trapped in this room for days, you will need to ration it.

The creature tries the door. It is of course, locked. It seems very sturdy also. This isn't a good sign.

The creature is quite amazed at this book, it's literally all squiggles and lines made to evoke the look and feel of real writing while being nothing. This is maybe the most awful thing in the room, next to those weird paintings that are also just smears.

The creature would love to get outside, NOW!!!!! But unfortunately it seems to be trapped in some sort of [untranslatable] nightmare of [untranslatable] design. There's not much to be done for the getting out of here agenda. The creature would like to stop being referred to as "the creature" also, it notes to itself.

The pillows are solid material, not even a feather to be had, this is a brick of soft. And it isn't even that soft.
The creature looks under the bed and finds maybe the only clean part of the floor. Interesting.

The creature picks up the cup of water and stares at it for a solid two minutes. Wet hand technique beckons it, it is seriously contemplating such a goofy idea. It decides against it.
The creature would like you to refer to it by name, [untranslatable]. What will the creature do?

Uhhhhh... Sorry, I didn't catch your name there. Could you say it a little slower, maybe?
Check behind the paintings, and double-check that that side table doesn't have a drawer on it. Maybe it has a drawer and someone just rotated it so the drawer is up against the wall.

I'm afraid there's some kind of linguistic barrier going on, pal. I'll probably just keep calling you pal, it... means, like, acquaintances, but way shorter? We know each other and don't hate each other, is the point, I guess.
Anyways wreck the hell out of that wallpaper, pal.

The creature gives a half hearted attempt on the wallpaper. This stuff is stuck on pretty well despite looking like it'll dissolve if you look at it.
""Pal" is not my name, neither is "untranslatable". What do you even mean "untranslatable"? My name is a very simple gesture of [untranslatable]? Are you using a translator? Mercy..." retorts the creature. "Sure. "Pal". Call me Pal. Why not."

The creature didn't like that idea.

The creature sees nothing but a plain, white roof. It's remarkably white, a single panel.

The creature checks for its Pocket™ in its pouch. Nope, naked as anything. The creature hopes you can forgive their immodesty.

The creature re arranges the furniture a little. There's nothing there. The bedside table is just that, and the paintings while amusingly abstract to the point of just being blurs of color, are also just that.
The creature feels a small rumble somewhere in the distance . It seems something happened and there will be little time to prepare. What will the creature do?

Throw the book at them!
And by that I mean literally pick up the book from earlier, the one with the incomprehensible text, and be ready to hurl it at whoever comes in the room. We're not taking them to court... Yet.
