So, during Closed Beta, I deliberately walked around with dementia, and I saw a rather special item... since I still don't know what it does, I'm going to make something up...
The Moonhart Mother Tree.
The bright sun shines down, blanketing you with its life-giving warmth. Singing a hauntingly beautiful melody, Miakoda, Maiden of the Moonhart, stands here. Towering high above is the Moonhart Mother Tree, stretching her enourmous branches heavenwards. Reaching up as high as the eye can see looms the awesome presence of a living totem. There are 7 moon maidens here. There are 4 elfen guards here. A shiny disc lies in a clear plastic case here. Seneschal of Serenwilde, Nikua Gladheon is here. He wields some sort of sword in one hand and some other sword in the other.
You see exits to the north and south.
blink
You blink.
'Erm, what the heck is this thing, and what is it doing here?
You say, "Erm, what the heck is this thing, and what is it doing here?"
point disc
You point accusingly at a shiny disc.
hrm
You ponder for a moment and say "Hrm..."
shrug
You shrug helplessly.
get disc
You pick up a shiny disc.
p disc
This shiny disc appears to be made out of some sort of plastic. One of its sides is silvery and shines with rainbow colors, and the other is painted a pale blue. On the painted side are the words "Iron Realms Entertainment - Rapture Runtime Engine". It is loosely held in a clear plastic case, apparently protecting the silvery side from scratches.
It weighs 2 ounces.
'I have NO CLUE what the heck this thing is...
You say, "I have NO CLUE what the heck this thing is..."
Nikua shrugs helplessly.
Seneschal of Serenwilde, Nikua Gladheon says, "Is it enchanted or something?
'Doesn't look like it.
You say, "Doesn't look like it."
Seneschal of Serenwilde, Nikua Gladheon says, "Touch it!"
touch disc
You reach out and touch a shiny disc.
With a bright flash of light, you are suddenly transported to a dark, dull-looking room with odd-looking boxes.
blink
You blink.
Seneschal of Serenwilde, Nikua Gladheon tells you, "Wtf n00b? That looked weird!"
l
A dark server room.
The air in this room is dry and feels processed, and there is the smell of electricity in the air. Strange black, thin boxes are arranged in racks, complete with blinking lights on the front and neatly bundled cables on the back. A larger box with a glass window on the front sits here. A disc-shaped tray sticks out of one of the boxes here.
aha
"Ahah!" you exclaim triumphantly.
put disc in tray
You carefully extract the disc from its case, and place it on the try, shiny side up. A beeping noise eminates from the box, and the tray slides shut.
With a rude noise, the tray slides back open, and words appear in the window.
read window
The words on the window read:
Flip the disc over, idiot.
oops
"Oops!" you exclaim with a bashful expression.
flip disc
You flip a shiny disc in a tray over so the painted side faces up. A beeping noise eminates from the box, and the tray slides shut.
A whirring noise eminates from the box, and the window lights up with columns of words and numbers.
read window
Most of the words on the window look almost like gibberish, but you make out the following along the bottom of the screen:
Administrator: Please enter a command.
tell nikua I put that disc thing in this box and now this window thing is telling me I'm an administrator and it wants me to enter a command. You know what that is?
You tell Nikua, "I put that disc thing in this box and now this window thing is telling me I'm an administrator and it wants me to enter a command. You know what that is?"
You feel your eyes drooping - a sure sign you need sleep.
sleep
The whirring noise dies down, and the screen goes blank.
'What in the Gods' names is this?
You say, "What in the Gods' names is this?"
wake
You tap the box, and the whirring resumes.
Seneschal of Serenwilde, Nikua Gladheon tells you, "OMFG you didn't just do that."
tell nikua do what?
You tell Nikua, "Do what?"
hrm
You ponder for a moment and say "Hrm..."
poke nikua
The image of Nikua suddenly appears in the window in front of you. You see a huge shadow descend on him, and hear a funny squishing noise from the window as a giant finger descends on him.
You have slain Nikua by Divine Poke.
The soul of Nikua tells you, "EVIL! DOC MEMBER! OMFGBBQ OSTRACIZED! BLARGH!"
You have been ostracized from the commune of Serenwilde.
Nikua has declared you to be a formal enemy of Serenwilde.
hrm
You ponder for a moment and say "Hrm..."
get megalith
The view in the window changes to the Megalith of Doom. It suddenly rises in the air and vanishes, only to reappear in a small rectangle to the side of the window, labeled, "Inventory +2."
'Ooooh!
You say, "Ooooh!"
More to come...
EDIT: Nobody saw the Blastron in there. I repeat, nobody saw the Blastron in there.

Meanwhile, back in Serenwilde:
Selthar tells you, "I put that disc thing in this box and now this window thing is telling me I'm an administrator and it wants me to enter a command. You know what that is?"
Suddenly, you feel very sluggish, and the world around you seems to come to a halt. Your last thought before you are frozen in place is, "What the F***?"
You have been frozen by the Sleeping System.
tell selthar don't touch anything!!
You are frozen and cannot do that.
