[CONTINUE + 4] INTRO

[foundationmods]

[After so long a trip, you're all finally here. Taken through a hidden passage inside of the very mountain itself, you find yourself standing in front of a field of flowers, growing well due to the open roof above it. If you look up, you can just make out the shimmering colors off of the barrier - looking almost like the shine off of a soap bubble.

Try not to trample on the flowers as you approach the open, purple gate. And remember to wear your masks, now that you're here!

...Still, the sight of the yellow flowers waving in the wind....such a cheery sight fills you with determination for what's to come.

Welcome to the Underground.

...Again. The loop happened again, and you're here. Everything is the same.

Someone who was dead is alive again.

The trial...it was...you remember only up until Gilgamesh was FOUGHT against, and then...nothing.

You feel you shouldn't try to remember anything beyond that.

Not only that, But more monster names have faded from your memory.

...When will this end?]

I-I-I don't know! Were you not going to do something?! What did you do?!

[le_mat]

I was going... to use the UI to try and find Yoshi... Then everything went black.

I... shit. Solomon-san I don't know.

[Not Boss this time.]

[ ....

at this point, it doesn't really matter, does it? whatever ren was going to do, it was probably going to be something stupid and dangerous. perhaps he could have lost ren permanently.

the thought fills him with fear.

so solomon throws his arms around ren, pulling him into a hug. ]

I am so glad that you are alright.

[le_mat]

[He gasps slightly in surprise. But after a moment he hugs back]

I don't know what happened... but I'm sorry for scaring you, Boss.

[He sounds a bit admonished like he would be if Sojiro was getting onto him. Like a teenager]

[finalring]

You should be sorry.

[ even though he says that, he doesn't really sound angry. if anything, he sounds sad. worried.

but when he pulls back, he looks like he's barely keeping it together. ]

I have never thought that I'm some shepherd of sheep when it comes to this mission, Ren. But the loss of anyone on my team... it's painful.

[ it is so painful to care. ]
