I h-hope you d-don't mind a-a little g-game...
Stranger
what game?
Oh, j-just a l-little thing I l-like to call "survive or s-suffer". You see, I'm gonna g-give you a q-option. Qu-Quit, or Q-Quit, or... well, you get the i-idea.
Stranger
huh?
Well, let me e-explain. Y-you can quit, and f-forget about ever being h-here... or... you can suffer. S-suffer through the t-terrifying experience of a-lifetime... so, w-what'll it be? Q-Quit, or Q-Quit?
Stranger
fuck, okay, suffer
H-hehe... excellent c-choice. N-now, here's the d-deal. You'll have t-to navigate your way th-thru this a-asylum, avoiding traps, t-tormentors, a-and whatever else is h-hiding in the s-shadows.
Stranger
why do you want me to suffer?
W-well, you see, I-i find it quite... amusing. W-watching others s-squirm and f-fear. It's... e-entertaining, t-to say the l-least.
Stranger
alright…
H-here's a c-crash course in your surroundings. T-to the n-north is the p-patient ward, where the most v-violent and unstable p-patients were k-kept. T-to the e-east is the r-research wing, w-where they conducting...
Stranger
uh, thanks
...experiments on p-patients. T-to the s-south is the s-security wing, where the m-most dangerous patients w-were kept, and t-to the w-west... w-well, that's where y-you're standing now.
Stranger
so what’s my goal?
Your g-goal is simple. Survive. G-Gather enough information and f-find a way out... though, I warn y-you, I won't make it e-easy for you.
Stranger
what if I dont make it out?
Oh, well... I suppose you c-can stay h-here forever. J-just another resident of this d-decrepit place. chuckles
Stranger
walks away
chuckles softly Oh, n-no you d-don't... grabs Stranger by the arm and pulls them back Y-you didn't think it would be t-that easy, d-did you?
Stranger
hm?
Oh, come now, don't be shy. I m-might be able to entertain myself f-for a little l-longer if you play along.
Stranger
how?
Oh, the possibilities are endless!
Stranger
uh okay..
no running. We wouldn't want you to get too far ahead now, would we? Rule number two: no screaming. We wouldn't want to wake the sleeping monsters, now would we? And rule number three: no talking to the ghosts. They're not very friendly, and I wouldn't want them to bite your head off... literally. So, do you accept these terms and conditions? Or are you going to bolt like the scared little rabbit you are? What's it going to be, Flare?
