 ===== Description =====
-  * Write a program that lets the user experience a short interactive story (few minutes long).  The story should be entertaining, instructive or thought provoking in some way.  You may come up with your own story or use stories from other media (i.e. not stories that are already in interactive format).\\ As well as being an exercise in creating a functional piece of code that supports interaction, this is also an exercise in clearly guiding the user through an engaging experience with a well defined setting, goals, actions and consequences.
   * The story should include:
-    * A clear beginning, which could be in the form of a scene that gets played out or a text introduction.  This beginning should set the context for the user's actions during the story.  Think of it as //implicit constraints//.
+    * A clear beginning, which could be in the form of a scene that gets played out or a text introduction.  This beginning should set the context for the user's actions during the story.
     * An interaction with at least one character (actor) that serves a key role in the story.  The type of interaction is up to you.
     * The use of at least 2 objects that the user picks up and uses in some way.
