The Text Adventure! (w/some graphics)

Ok, trying an experiment here. I'm going to run a simple text adventure in this thread... the way it will work is, I will post the current move, along with a picture when necessary, and then respond to the first command posted as a reply. I'm calling it a text adventure even though technically it's a graphical text adventure... but anyway. Remember, only the FIRST COMMAND that is replied will be followed. Here's the first move:

ATLAS SQUARE

You are currently standing in Atlas Square. The huge statue of Atlas towers above you, looming over the area. You can see City Hall to the north, and you think you can see Ms. Liberty's pedestal to the south.

OBVIOUS EXITS: NORTH, SOUTH

MS. LIBERTY'S PEDESTAL

You are standing just south of Atlas Square. Ms. Liberty is here, standing on a raised pedestal and awaiting heroes to train. To the north, you can see the towering statue of Atlas. A road lies to the south.

OBVIOUS EXITS: NORTH, SOUTH

Night has fallen.

> equip katana

You equip the Katana. Unfortunately, the blade is rusted and dull. Unless you plan on giving someone tetanus with it, this weapon is likely going to do minimal damage. At best.

> talk to Ms. Liberty

You speak to Ms. Liberty at length, asking for some guidance or words of wisdom, perhaps even some training. You also ask if she happens to have a better katana to replace your rusty one.

However, she refuses to talk to you. You probably need to have a Hero ID Card first.

> Fill out Hero Registration Form

You take out the Hero Registration Form and look it over. It is a scan form where you fill out the necessary info by blacking in bubbles on the form. It looks like you had already filled out your hero name some time earlier. "The Text Adventure". It was all you could think of at the time.

There are still more parts of the form to fill out, boring but necessary personal details. Unfortunately, you lack a #2 pencil with which to finish the form.

CITY HALL (EXTERIOR)

You are standing in front of City Hall. It's usually rather busy at this time of the day. There are a pair of lit braziers next to the steps for some reason. Atlas Square lies to the south, and there are paths going off to the left and right as well.

OBVIOUS EXITS: SOUTH, EAST, WEST, DOOR

> Find a place to sleep

You find a nice spot to lie down at the foot of the steps leading up to City Hall. However, a nearby Activist complains that you are in his spot and tells you to take a nap elsewhere.

As you get back to your feet, the activist shoves you a Flyer.
