Luckily a player noticed after exactly one year that the game was still running* on a computer and gave Stupidity manual commands to go around the chasm via the Really-Convenient-Shortcut Highway that was opened in the meantime.
Stupidity entrusted the torch to the smartest Rock Raider of all time. This Rock Raider was known for such intelligent feats like not eating ore, not eating rubble that contains ore, not eating rubble that doesn't contain ore and not eating things in general that were unfit for non-human consumption. The name of this Rock Raider was, uhm... Smart Rock Raider.
And then the torch exploded. No, not the torch of this story, but a completely unrelated one somewhere else on Planet U. Anyway: Smart Rock Raider carried the torch and became hungry. Before continuing the journey this Rock Raider went to a nearby HQ and had to make the ultimate decision:
a) a sandwich from a support station or
b) a pizza from Brickolini's Offworld Pizzeria or
c) radioactive ravioli from Radium's Radical Radioactive Ravioli Realm.
*and it hasn't crashed yet. That's the real mystery of this story!
