Game restored. The grue, oblivious to such fine points as file systems and time travel, gets confused, eats microchip08, and goes off for a digestive nap.
You currently have:
A lamp (no batteries)
A paperclip
A cursed lodestone
Gee, with all that focus on grues and your belongings, you completely forgot your surroundings.

It is dark. You are likely to be eaten by a grue.

The paperclip contains another paperclip.
...Despite the fact that it is a paperclip, and inherently not designed for storage in the first place.
...Whatever.
Anyway, the correct thing to do now would be to sign off, possibly leaving you with a handy reminder of your newly updated inventory, and of course the lovely little greater-than sign which heralds the beginning of the player's next turn, and then kindly leave it for that player like a good boy, and not fill it in myself, which would ruin the point of the game. Aren't I a lovely little text adventure thing. So here goes:

While you have been dallying around and failing to understand, an Dwarf has approached.

Tom Cruise, having reached the peak of his career (and a very small hill it was) several years ago, is beyond reason. He pulls a small device from his left pocket, and there is a bright light. You are dazzled for a moment, but when you once again regain the ability to see, you are faced by Tom Cruise, John Travolta, and a John Travolta Clone with Bad Dredlocks.

Done. Your actions seriously amuse your opponents. Very much so. In fact, John Travolta starts laughing loudly. It looks like he can't control it. After a few painful to watch seconds, he drops dead. Well done! You only have a mad Tom Cruise and a John Travolta Clone with Bad Dreadlocks to deal with now.
You have:
A lamp (no batteries)
A cursed lodestone
You are wielding:
A straightened paperclip
