THE CHRONICLER
You’re calm.
calm.
very calm.
You roll into a ball and huddle into the corner away from all of your responsibilities.
Choices? Risks?
Why would you ever make any sort of meaningful decision when you could instead roll up in a ball away from all of the choices you could possibly make
Oh god its scary, the world is so big and you’re so small.
The fetal position is such a comforting way to lie on the ground.
the stone floor feels cold against the side of your body.

THE TECHNICIAN
Yes.
That’s right.
You’re immune to problems as long as you pretend they don’t exist!
So long as you ignore your problems you’ll be fine!

THE WRATH
ARE YOU CRYING?
HAHAHA

THE CHRONICLER
That comment really hurt

You hear the creatures talking. . . you can make out a few distinct words

THE AWARE
They’re. . . pitying you. . .

THE MIND
The voices inside your ear! . .

THE AWARE
There is something embedded within your ear canal. . . you don’t know what it is or how long it has been in there. It’s incredibly small.

THE MIND
Attempting to remove it in out current state would be. . . not optimal. . .

THE CHRONICLER
TSCHHnkK TCHSKK
You hear some keys clanging and clicking and finally the door begins to slowly creak open.

The Guard
Uh. . .

THE CHRONICLER
(The sight of you sobbing in the corner of the dark room in your underwear is probably a bit jarring. . .)

The Guard
I was told to release you from the slave holding chamber. . . something about it being “inhumane” or something. . . I dunno i’m just a guard. . .

THE SOUL
Is he setting us free?!?

THE AWARE
No, In his hands are what appear to be rope. . .

THE MIND
Presumably to tie our hands up before relocating us to a new holding chamber. . .

THE CHRONICLER
you try to pick pocket the guard.
(1, 5, +6)
Success
You manage to steal from the guard without being caught.
all he has is a . . .
He has nothing useful on him. . .

The Guard
. . . They’re relocating you to a temporary housing facility while the council decides what to do with you. . .

THE CHRONICLER
he ties your hands up with the rope.
As you exit the room you turn back and look at the weird creatures.

THE AWARE
You cannot tell if they are feeling contempt, jealousy, or pity.

THE CHRONICLER
he begins leading you towards your new location.
It’s dark outside
and cold.

THE SOUL
RUN! He won’t be able to see you in the dark! Who knows what this “council” will do to you!

THE mind
Have faith in the system. . . Surely if we wait it out long enough and comply we’ll be fine. We may even learn more about this world.

THE CHRONICLER
You’ve been thrown inside a new cell.
The conditions are much nicer than before.
And there is another old man stuck in the prison with you

THE PRISONER
zzzzz

THE CHRONICLER
He’s asleep though. . .

THE COUNCILLER
So this is the ape. . . What are we to do with him

THE CHRONICLER
A person of seemingly high rank has appeared!

-Let me go! Please! I don’t remember anything!

THE SOUL
His face is marked with visible pity and disdain.

THE COUNCILLER
Really? nothing?

-Nothing. please i’ll prove it to you! i. . . i. . .

The high ranking individual looks at you with disgust.

THE COUNCILLER
Really? is that the best excuse you can muster?

-No! it’s true I swear!

-i am the harbinger of doom the destroyer of reality

THE COUNCILLER
. . . uh huh. . . So now you’re the harbinger of doom. . . So then mr harbinger. What brings you back here? are you here to rampage through our streets again?

-I am not here to rampage through your streets. i am here to crush my enemies and bring the world to its knees. The end times are now and i am “THE END”

THE CHRONICLER
He lets out a big sigh before sitting down on a chair across from your cell

THE COUNCILLER
Mr Harbinger.
Someone is going to have to pay for the damages you’ve caused.
I don’t know if you’ve noticed but we don’t take to theft and meaningless violence very kindly around there parts.
. . .Before the P.U.E.C came. this place was the domain of countless thugs. . . Do you have any idea what it’s like living here? People are still appearing out of thin air around these parts and we do not have the resources to protect or accommodate them.
Having a nearly naked lunatic come rampage through the streets calling themselves an ape or harbinger of doom does not help.

-appearing out of thin air?

THE COUNCILLER
you really don’t remember anything do you? Sometimes people just appear. . . as if they’ve been teleported. and It’s our job as the last remnants of humanity to protect our kind from everything out there. . .
Enough meaningless chatter.
It’s become clear you lack mental stability. . . there’s also the amnesia. . .Possibly some kind of head injury. . .

THE AWARE
He stare at you.

THE COUNCILLER
You wouldn’t happen to know anything about what has been happening recently?

THE SOUL
DANCE BABY DANCE!

THE CHRONICLER
You feel the disco juices surge through your flesh.

THE COUNCILLER
. . . What are you?

THE SOUL
YES! DANCE HARDER BABY!

THE COUNCILLER
You do not need to reaffirm how absolutely legendary your moves are. His reaction is more than enough to know you’ve left an impression

THE COUNCILLER
Hey, if you’re trying to trick me by pretending your having a seizure its not working.

-i am the dance man!

THE COUNCILLER
He stares in utter disbelief

THE SOUL
NOT DISBELIEF,
AWE!

THE CHRONICLER
He gets up and walks off.
you hear him mumble to himself as he leaves.

-YOU CAN RUN! BUT YOU CAN’T HIDE FROM THE TRUTH!

THE CHRONICLER
You hear a man laugh
You turn around and it’s the oldman in the cell with you

THE OLDMAN
HAHAHA

THE CHRONICLER
Oh?
this old man. . . you dig his style. . .

THE OLDMAN
Hehehe. . . that was pretty good. . . I like your moves kid. . .

THE CHRONICLER
You are not a kid.
You are an overweight middle aged man.

-Who. . .

THE OLDMAN
The name’s johnny. . .
Kid i like your style. . . teach me how you did that thing with your body.

THE SOUL
YES
YES
YES

THE MIND
Oh no, Don’t associate with him.
You aren’t a criminal. . .you aren’t a gangster.
