Loot the exclamation point and run!

You pick up the exclamation mark, which is not an actual object and is not real. Needless to say, it does not appear in your inventory and does not affect the story or you in any way.
What do you do?
Note: Today’s comic was made by our programmer.





next
The rats are getting angry now… You should open the bag.
Nice drawing
The exit isway too small, you need yet another perspective or you’ll never make it!
just keep going…
A lot of retro games have shout-outs from the programmers from a random NPC. (Examples include Ultima series and EarthBound/Mother series.) Make one of the rats possessed with the voice of the programmer that made the comic, and the rat temporarily join the party… as a mount!
sing the Jane killjoy song to calm the rats with your bad voice
Consume exclamation point.
Not real? Then how can you pick it? ? ? ? ?
Now grab on of those “?” floating around your confused head.
or
Notice how a murderous rat is about to tear you into pieces, then poke it with the unexisting “!”
or
Grab the bag of things unkown, get into a corner and be ready to open it if your party is losing the fight.
Just get the heck out of there already. You don’t know how much longer that shrink spell will last.
punch a rat in the nose, then run as fast as you can to the exit
Look up. If the ceiling is high enough, ask Jane to reverse the shrinking spell so that these rats are no longer a threat.
AND
Wear the exclamation point as an imaginary and very stylish tie!
Equip the bag, just in case.
look around to see what the rats are doing before you go all trigger happy. if your lucky they might eat Ray
also: something ive wanted to ask for a long time, why isn’t the staff you looted from the orc village all that time ago in your invintory? we didn’t throw it away did we?
@Doomcat
You sure did
Killing the rats would be a waste of your time and experience. You would actually get less than those lobsters you incinerated.
Start a fight with the rats.
Well, you’re out of mana, so run.
……what about murray…. fight to the death for murray… leave no skull behind
