Dark, in the handbasket

>look

It is dark.  Ahead you see a very bright light that seems to be 
getting closer by the minute.

>look up

Above you is the Anvil of Damocles.

The light ahead is drawing closer.

>i

You have:
    the Trump of Doom
    the Hand of Fate
    unwanted responsibilities
    no tea

The light ahead is drawing closer.
