Ups !!
you have found a bug, I just tested this and when you have one flask it disappears, if you have a stack of flasks it only returns 1 empty flask. Seems I have failed math
again somewhere in this lua spaghetti madness

And I agree, English is my second learned foreign language (for some abominable reason all Icelanders are taught Danish as the first foreign language), but that's no excuse, the truth is that story telling and script writing is an art form by itself, one that I have no experience in.
I created the environment first, then tried to come up with a story that fits in that environment, the story is therefore limited by the surroundings, it then gets severely limited by what I can pull off on the screen. At first you needed to fight the elder, but my animations made stick figures look like a Pixar tour de force, I then created a semi decent idle animation for the dialog and he then gets corrupted and polymorphs into a Goromorg, but that made no sense lore wise and just looked tacky, put you get the point, compromises on top of compromises
My ideal position going into a mod project would be model,texture and sound guy
(elements that make up the visual environment), there isn't a single line of lua code in this mod that I can say is my own, as the saying goes, I'm a dwarf standing on the shoulders of giants
Thanks for playing Anthony, glad you liked it.

. I probably wouldn't care if the mod was primarily about the puzzles, but your main focus seems to be atmosphere, and texts can go a long way here (especially since we don't have much in the way of movie sequences or amimated dialogues in Grimrock). Maybe next time enlist some assistance there? In the other areas, you obviously don't need any, so please continue!
