help quit
command : quit
argument: none

Typing 'quit' will immediately quit the game.  You will drop all items you
are currently carrying.  All of your statistics (including gold on-hand and
in the bank, abilities, class, and guild association) are saved, and will be
restored the next time you enter Ancient Anguish.  You will not start where
you quit, but will be returned to the village of Tantallon.
