Princess Piglet of Porkistan

Um, yes, hello. I'm Piglet. Princess Piglet of Porkistan. I'm your best friend. I watched a movie this afternoon, *Star Pork Into Darkness*, starring Chris Swine, and it was a little bit traumatizing for me, because it reminded me of my youth. But it also made me want to go on an adventure through space again. With you, my best friend! So, um, where should we go? To my home planet, |Porkistan>[Porkistan?] Or to *your* home planet, |Earth>[Earth?] I've never been to |Cossum>[Cossum] before, home of The Big Belly, but I hear it's nice too. Or, um, well, I'm not sure if this is a good idea, but we could also go to... |The_Cow_Planet>[THE COW PLANET?] That's where my nemisis lives – Mooossolini, the Cow King. What do you think? { (click: ?Porkistan)[(set: $planet to "Porkistan")(goto: "Preflight")] (click: ?Earth)[(set: $planet to "Earth")(goto: "Preflight")] (click: ?Cossum)[(set: $planet to "Cossum")(goto: "Preflight")] (click: ?The_Cow_Planet)[(set: $planet to "The Cow Planet")(goto: "Preflight")] } <img src="images/Piglet/Princess Piglet.jpeg" width="300" alt="photograph of Princess Piglet">

We've arrived on Porkistan, my home planet. It's party time! Let's have a party with lots of stuffies! <img src="images/Piglet/Snowy Scarlet Azul.jpeg" width="500" alt="Snowy Scarlet Azul.jpeg"> Shall we go to [[Piglet's Castle]] or the [[movie theater?|Movie Theater]]

We've arrived on Earth, your home planet. The welcoming committee of Earthlings is already here! This looks like a friendly place. Let's [[ask|Ask Earthlings]] the Earthlings what we shouldn't miss on Earth. <img src="images/Piglet/Glubschis.png" width="600" alt="photograph of Glubschis">

We've arrived on Cossum. This looks like a beautiful planet, made up almost entirely of sparkly crystals. I wonder if they're magic. <img src="images/Piglet/Cossum 3.jpeg" width="500" alt="Cossum 3.jpeg"> Let's try to find The Big Belly. Do you think he's in the [[Red City|Red City]] or the [[Blue City|Blue City]]?

We're here! On the Cow Planet! Actually, it doesn't look so bad. There are some pretty trees, a beach and an ocean nearby... It actually looks a little bit like Hawaii. But wait! There are some sleeping cows between us and the beach! I think they are Mooossolini's elite bodyguard – THE PIG BUTCHERS!! <img src="images/Piglet/Cows 1.jpg" width="500" alt="first photograph of cows"> We should run away as fast as our little JPL booties can take us and [[escape,|Surrounded by Cows]] away from the beach! Or (I hesitate to ask) maybe you want to go to the [[beach|Cows by the Beach]] after all? It does look tempting, despite all the EVIL PIG BUTCHERS between us and the beach!!!

{(if: $planet is "The Cow Planet") [ Gulp. I'm not sure that's a good idea. But I trust you to protect me from the evil cows. Especially Mooossolini, my nemisis. ] (else:) [ That is a good idea. $planet it is! ] } Before we fly there, we should pack our bags. Each of us has only one tiny backpack, and my tiny backpack is even tinier than yours, so we can bring a total of three things with us. What shall we pack? \ (set: $items to (a:)) \ My twin sister, |Porcita>[Porcita.] Our friend, |Porkista>[Porkista.] Our other friend, |Porky>[Porky.] Our |JPL_booties>[JPL booties] (one pair for me, Piglet, and one pair for you).

Um, yes, well, somebody forgot to pack our JPL booties. So our adventure has come to an end before it even started. This is all a bit traumatic for me, so I'm going to take a nap now. Maybe we can try again when I wake up? <img src="images/Piglet/Piglet sleeping.jpeg" width="300" alt="photograph of Piglet sleeping"> [[Start over|Start]]

I can't believe it! We thought we were escaping, but there are even more cows here. This is definitely Mooossolini's elite PIG BUTCHER troop. They must be guarding something very important. <img src="images/Piglet/Cows 2.jpg" width="500" alt="second photograph of cows"> The cows at the beach have woken up in the meantime and look very hungry, so it's probably not a good idea to go back to the beach. I guess we can either [[talk to the cows|Talk to the Cows]] and persuade them not to eat us, or we can [[fight them.|Fight the Cows]]

I think we might be able to sneak past the PIG BUTCHERS. One of them looks like he might have woken up in the meantime. But it also looks like he's very busy staring at a tree. <img src="images/Piglet/Cows 3.jpg" width="500" alt="third photograph of cows"> Let's keep going to the [[beach.|Beach]]

Whew! What a relief. We made it to the beach. I have the feeling something very important is hiding in that [[cave|Cave]] over there. Or maybe it's a trap, and we should go [[back.|Surrounded by Cows]] <img src="images/Piglet/Cave.jpeg" width="500" alt="third photograph of cows">

The cave is really scary. And dark. I bet they barbecue piglets here. And little girls. Wait, there's a sign.

"Die Kuh" is Bovine, the language of the cows, and it means: "Welcome, cute and honorable travelers from the far reaches of space." At least that's what I think it means.
