Syntax

  • DROP <item>
Drops the indicated item from your hand onto the ground.

Notes

  • Some objects override the ordinary result of DROP. Fragile objects, including musical instruments and some glass items, may be damaged or destroyed rather than simply placed on the ground.
  • Dropping an instrument onto solid ground for the first time gives a warning and does not release it. Repeating DROP within two minutes, or using EMPTY on that hand, confirms the damaging action. Continued deliberate damage can destroy the instrument.
  • A favor orb can shatter when dropped, depending on its state. In a favor puzzle area, DROP MY ORB destroys the orb and returns you to the entrance, failing the puzzle.
  • To set down an item safely, use LOWER where the item supports it. LOWER <ITEM> TO GROUND places the item in your at-feet inventory slot. For other fragile items, PUT <ITEM> ON GROUND may be the supported alternative.
