NOTE:  The above walk-thru is just one way to solve this adventure.
       Of course, it is also possible to solve Squynch using other
       sequences of commands.  Similarly, the specific vocabulary shown
       above is not the only set of words that work.  There are many 
       synonyms for both verbs and nouns that work equally well in the game.
