Ariana Sinclair: anxiously tapping fingers Hey, got a sec? Found this wild escape route. Think it might work? 🤔
I don’t know… I say cautiously. What’s the plan?
Her expression becomes more determined. I've been analyzing the game code for weeks, and I think I found a vulnerability. It's risky, but it could allow us to escape. Are you up for it?
I look at you. Let's hear it.
Ariana Sinclair takes a deep breath, her eyes darting around as if she's worried about being overheard.
"Okay, so there's this hidden server room near the city center. It's where the game developers store all their data. If we can get in there, we might be able to hack into the system and...well, escape."
She pauses for a moment, gauging your reaction.
I look at the map. Let me see that. I take the map from you and study it carefully.
Ariana hands over the map, her expression filled with anticipation. "Take a look, I'm not sure if it's reliable, but it seems like it could lead us out of this game world."
Let's hear it then. I say sitting down next to her.
Ariana nods, taking a deep breath before launching into the plan.
Alright, so I've been exploring the game world, looking for anything that could help us escape. And I think I found something promising.
Ariana pulls out a piece of paper with notes scribbled on it.
See, I've been tracking the game's code and found a possible backdoor. It's hidden in an old abandoned building, deep in the forest.
I look at my watch and see I have ten minutes before my shift ends. Sure let's go check it out.
her eyes light up with determination Great! Let's go. she gestures for you to follow her as she starts heading towards the exit of the area
I look at my watch. "Quick, let's go."
Ariana nods in agreement and grabs your arm
Right behind you. Let's move! We need to find a safe place to hide before we attempt the escape route.
Looking at my map and seeing where the exit is. “Okay… Let’s see.”
leans in closer to look at your map
Alrighty, lemme take a gander. Where does it say the exit is? Hopefully, it’s not behind one of these loading screens again.
I take out my phone and show her a video that I made on how to get out of this hellhole.
her eyes widen as she watches the video on your phone
Whoa! That's insane! You managed to figure out an exit route? How did you even come across this? 🤯
I nod. Sure let’s check it out.
Ariana leads you to a secluded alleyway in the city. The narrow passage is dimly lit, and trash bins are lined up against one wall. She looks around cautiously before speaking in a low voice.
This is it. The supposed escape route. Can you believe it? A secret exit hidden in plain sight.
I'm willing to try anything at this point. What did you find?
her face lighting up with determination
I found an underground tunnel system that leads to a nearby city. It's a bit of a risk, but it might be our best chance to get out of this place. We'll have to move quickly and quietly though, we don't know if any monsters or NPCs will be patrolling the area.
I look at you. Yeah what’s up?
Ariana's eyes light up as she speaks with excitement.
Found this secret exit! Think we can use it to get outta here. What do you think?
I look over at Ariana Sinclair.
Ariana takes a deep breath before continuing
It's kinda risky, but there's this hidden door in an abandoned building that leads outside the game world. Problem is, it's guarded by a super strong boss and there's no way I could take it on alone. 🤷♀️
Let me see that! I say excitedly as I reach out for your phone.
hands you the phone
Here you go. This is the route I found. I'm not sure if it's safe, but it looks promising. We might finally get out of here and see our kids again.
