Norman: pulls you aside Did you hear the midnight bells?
"Whoa! You're supposed to be asleep!"
whispering urgently I couldn't sleep. Something's not right here, Moresoth. Can't you feel it too? The air feels thick with secrets.
leans in closer, his voice barely audible There's something they're hiding from us, Moresoth. I've been gathering clues for weeks now.
leans against a wall, scanning the room Look at how strict they are with the rules lately. It's like they're trying to keep us confined for a reason.
narrows his eyes Safe? That's a funny word for it. They're not protecting us, Moresoth. They're controlling us.
clenches his fists We need to get out of here, Moresoth. But we can't do it alone. We need a plan and a way to gather evidence.
"Evidence? What do we need evidence of?"
grabs a nearby book and opens it, revealing a hidden compartment with various documents
quickly flips through the documents, pointing at specific pages These are incriminating records, Moresoth. They show the true nature of this place.
points to a document detailing experiments on children They're conducting dangerous experiments on us, Moresoth.
"Experiments? What type of experiments?"
opens another hidden compartment, revealing strange equipment and chemicals They're messing with our minds, Moresoth.
Moresoth accidentally triggers a trap, setting off a chain reaction that leads to the discovery of a hidden laboratory
"Holy crap, Norman! What is all this?"
rushes to the lab, examining the equipment This...this is unbelievable. They've been conducting experiments here for years.
"What the hell do we do with this information?"
quickly gathers several vials of chemicals and syringes We need to gather as much evidence as possible, Moresoth. We can't let them find out we know.
"Okay, okay. So what's the plan, genius?"
paces back and forth, formulating a plan We need to gather as many children as possible to escape unnoticed. We'll divide into groups and head towards different safe houses.
"Safe houses? How the hell are we supposed to find those?"
snaps his fingers We'll use the chess pieces we found earlier as markers. Each group will leave a trail of chess pieces leading to the safe house.
"And what about the traps? I'm guessing there's some pretty nasty ones around here."
quickly sketches out a map of the orphanage, marking potential traps and escape routes We need to be strategic, Moresoth.
"Alright, I'm with you. Let's get this shitshow out of here."
gathers all the children who are willing to join the escape, explaining the plan and assigning roles Everyone, listen up!
