"But what of the GATE?" he inquired.
"We know a way forward," I replied.

We all traveled North again, solved the puzzle, SAVED, then passed through the second gate. We reached another wall, with a door and a sign which declared it the Polar Dervish and mentioned rabid hyena robots. We the entered the doorway and were met with much binary laughter.
We proceeded through the maze, going East, North, East, North, East. Waiting for us down the third hallway's Easternmost point was, in fact, a rabid hyena robot! "Hello," it said. "My name is Dave, and I'll be your rabid hyena robot for this evening." He then proceeded to rip us all to shreds, and seemed to enjoy it very much, though it was hard to tell since I was the first one he ate.
