# 东方故事Ⅱ — Eastern Story II (ES II) / Eastern Story II (ES II)

> slug: `es2` · browser status: `playable` · native port: `40214`

One of the earliest Chinese-language LPC mudlibs -- GitHub's mudchina org describes it as "the progenitor of Chinese MUDs" (中文MUD鼻祖). A from-scratch LPMud-lineage codebase (credited to Annihilator@Eastern.Stories, 1994-1995, built on the Lil mudlib with TMI feature-mixin code) rather than a reskin of an existing engine -- this project's own recurring "ES2/TMI-2/Falcon family" terminology for dozens of later Chinese mudlibs traces back to this exact lineage. Players register with a real Chinese name, land at a mountain inn (饮风客栈), and explore a wuxia/xianxia world of domains (city gates and streets, snow-capped mountains, a temple, a bamboo canyon, a ghost/graveyard area) with guild-style skill training, a two-tier reputation system, and NPCs including a Dragon Ball crossover cameo (孙悟空/Son Goku, described in-game as ESII's first self-growing NPC whose combat experience permanently accumulates from the moment he's created).

## Run natively with FluffOS

1. Build a current FluffOS driver from https://github.com/fluffos/fluffos
   (native `build` / `build-debug`; see that repo's docs).
2. Download and unzip `es2.zip` from the URL above (or clone
   `https://github.com/fluffos/mudlibs` and use `libs/es2/`).
3. From the unzipped lib directory, ensure `config.fluffos` points
   `mudlib directory` at this tree (the checked-in file may contain a
   maintainer-local absolute path — edit it to your extract path).
4. Start the driver:

```bash
/path/to/fluffos/build/src/driver config.fluffos
```

5. Connect a UTF-8 MUD client to `127.0.0.1:40214`.

- Admin / wizard login: `fluffos` / `Mud@2026`
- If you host this on a public network, change the published default
  admin password before opening the port.
