Shadowgate, first screen, by Kate Glasheen.
I imagine that one day I’ll hear “your torch is almost out” music erupt from out of nowhere, and then: “my power goes out with sizzle. With outstretched arms, I move slowly, looking for a light. Suddenly, I trip over something! It was my cat. Smash! I fell face first to the floor. It’s a sad thing my adventures have ended here.” Or something.
