Introduction
------------
It had been three years since Sir Ignatius Grimwood K.G. had done battle with
the evil criminal, Bert Rosenberg, The final minutes of the conflict had been a
fluke, Grimwood had considered, culminating in Rosenberg's timely and yet
unsatisfying death. Grimwood knew the villain was a genius and to track him

Loose Ends
----------
This game is the sequel to Out Of The Limelight and, though there is no need to have
played the previous game beforehand, it may actually help. Loose Ends consists of
two parts, the second of which is accessed by a password provided at the end of
the first.

Normal adventuring commands apply to this game, but if you are in any doubt
VOCAB and INFO will provide you with further information. You will benefit
immensely from conversing with the various characters you meet throughout the
game and this can be facilitated by typing the character's name followed by the
query or command; eg. HARDY TELL ME ABOUT PLANTAGENET.

If stuck, fear not! In some cases by typing HELP you will receive a useful clue.
