Hmm.. now that is an interesting idea. THere is no
reason to use one language exclusively. You could imagine
adding some sort of run-time prolog-like (e.g.) interpreter, that
would interpret a prolog file for your NPC. (Adding to Inform or
Tads for example). Seems that would make NPC's a little easier ?
I dunno..
