  • Slide: 1
  • How? Amontillado A pipe? Impossible! And in the middle of the carnival!
  • My dear Fortunato, you are luckily met. How remarkably well you are looking to-day! But I have received a pipe of what passes for Amontillado, and I have my doubts.
  • He cannot tell Amontillado then sherry! Come, let us go try the Amontillado together!
  • As you are engaged, I am on my way to Luchesi. If any one has a critical turn, it is he. He will tell me—
  • My dear friend, Montresor, approached me at the carnival. I was confused on how he received the Cask of Amontillado, however I still was willing to identify the authenticity rather than Luchesi.

  • My friend ended up leading us to the catacombs, which was an unusual location to try some Amontillado. It was dark and you can hardly see anything, but Montresor had a flambeaux for each of us to use. Now, all I can see were human remains, nitre, and wine casks.
  • Here, aqquire this flambeaux.
  • Hmm, ok friend.

  • Drink, this Medoc will defend us front the damps.
  • Ok, I drink.
  • I was currently drunk, mainly from the start of the carnival. I did have a little cough, but my friend, Montresor, offered me Medoc. He mentioned to me how the wine will help me with my cold, so I was very accepting of the kind help.
