When you press the help button from the help screen, a new help screen comes up, saying ''"Press space to go back to the help screen. I don't know how to explain it any better."''

When starting up the game, on the '''Title Screen''' where the player first chooses what to do, the top reads:
 
{| style="border:none; background-color:#E3E4FA;padding:5px;font-size:95%;" align="center"
 
|
 
<center>'''Slaves to Armok: God of Blood
 
Chapter 2: Dwarf Fortress'''
 
Histories of ...</center>
 
|}
 
<br>
 
'...' will be generated randomly each time the game is opened. The first word will always be one of the seven sins, while the second will generally be a synonym of "stubbornness", which as we all know fit the hairy little blighters like a Cave spider silk glove.

If you press help again, a new help screen comes up, saying ''"You have pressed the Help key many times. No matter how urgent your problem may seem at the time, you only need to press it once."''
Pressing the help button while already in the help menu brings up the '''Text Viewers''' help screen. It contains '''Practice Links''', leading to the following page:
 
{| style="border:none; background-color:#E3E4FA;padding:5px;font-size:95%;" align="center"
 
|
 
<center>'''The Manual: Good Job'''<br>''You have successfully navigated a text link !''</center>

Pressing the help button in the '''Text Viewers''' help screen brings up a new screen:
 
{| style="border:none; background-color:#E3E4FA;padding:5px;font-size:95%;" align="center"
 
|
 
<center>'''The Manual: Text Viewers (Again)'''<br>''You have pressed the help key from the text viewer help screen. Press ESC to go back to that screen. I don't know how to explain it any better.''</center>

If you press help again, a new help screen comes up:
 
{| style="border:none; background-color:#E3E4FA;padding:5px;font-size:95%;" align="center"
 
|
 
<center>'''The Manual: Helpless or Hopeless ?'''<br>''You have pressed the help key many times. You only need to press the help key once, no matter how urgent your problem may seem at the time. Press ESC to go back to the previous screen. Despite my promise to have the help key work on any screen, it doesn't work on this screen.''
