[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?]

[She only heard half of that conversation, so.]

Does he not remember the reset?

[homeecspacecop]

No, he said he remembers the trial and then... waiting.

He doesn't remember the reset, he says he thinks you restored him to a save point before his memories were erased.

[backspacing]

At first I tried to just restore the memories, but the damage was too deep. 'Restoring everything to a prior save state' is actually an accurate description of what I tried to do.

We know the consequences now, at least: for anyone we make remember the trial, they're going to forget anything that has happened since the trial.

[homeecspacecop]

[Chuuta? Is Red going to have other people remember the trial?]

Yeah, that's the plan. We didn't know what would happen if w--

[Don't do that.]

Why not?

[Drew was waiting a long time, Chuuta. It was just Drew, waiting and thinking. But nobody else here is a monitalien, no one else is designed to wait for that long.]

... how long were you waiting for me?

[Ren used STOP and stopped everything, but Drew thinks it was as long as Drew was on Earth.]

... that's. Drew that's more than "a long time" that's...

[That's why Drew said don't do that.]

... Red? He says no one else should remember it. I think he's right.

[backspacing]

[She nods.]

I thought as much. I don't want any of you to be harmed by remembering.

[homeecspacecop]

Yeah, he's... [Chuuta isn't sure. There's something in Drew that isn't meshing properly with Chuuta right now.]
He's really shaken up. He's really serious about making sure you don't let anyone else remember.

[backspacing]

Then we can respect that. As long as one of you remembers, that one can relay the information to everyone else. Though you may have to talk for a while to thoroughly explain everything that happened. Are you up for that?

[homeecspacecop]

Yes. We can do that.

[Chuuta? Everyone can hear Drew when we FIGHT. It might be faster like that.]

It might be! But I feel like every time we FIGHT it does something weird.

[backspacing]

You could use one of the other commands you have. What ones do you have now anyway?

[homeecspacecop]

Oh, I mean just... opening the menu usually makes things go weird.

We can ACT, I know Drew used SMOOCH before.

[Don't use STOP! Chuuta! Don't use STOP!]

Drew, it's okay? It's okay, we don't even have a STOP command.

[backspacing]

That was one you gained in the last trial, though I don't know if you still have it. I'm guessing Drew is telling you not to use it, and I would have to agree with him.

[homeecspacecop]

[Don't use SNOOP either, Chuuta. That made it mad.]

Did we get SNOOP in the trial too?

[oceanicbutterfly]

STOP, SNOOP... what in the world went on in that trial?

[homeecspacecop]

[STOP SNOOPING! And then the O5 used a

SORD]

[...]

It sounds kind of stupid?

[soupervillain]

You know this is us you're talking about, right?

[homeecspacecop]

You're right, it sounds really stupid.

[oceanicbutterfly]

At this point, if something happened that didn't sound stupid, I would consider it a miracle.

[oceanicbutterfly]

..."STOP?" That seems... vague.

[homeecspacecop]

We'll explain it to everyone in a little bit.

But we really shouldn't use STOP again.
