|
... (No way I'm letting them know that they must press this specific key to interact with me...)
|
|
|
|
|
Did you just press B? Ah, so you do know of my Initial...
|
|
|
|
|
You may press Y for 'Yes' or N for 'No' to talk with me from now on.
|
|
|
|
|
Well then, let me properly introduce myself.
|
|
|
|
|
I am Benq. The one and only Benq. You must have heard of my name on Codeforces, ahahah!
|
|
|
|
|
Anyway. You tried to interact with me, so I guess...
|
|
|
|
|
You expected me to play a video or something, did you?
|
|
|
|
|
No? Well then... Forget everything.
|
|
|
|
|
Ask me if you need any help.
|
|
|
|
|
Do you have any problem?
|
|
|
|
|
Well, you see... They sealed me here, for one purpose.
|
|
|
|
|
It is my duty, as the guardian, to hide that Thing away from prying eyes.
|
|
|
|
|
Have you heard of it?
|
|
|
|
|
The Thing. The forbidden knowledge. The embodiment of eldritch horror itself.
|
|
|
|
|
The maw from another world, that would devour this reality, should we let it roam free.
|
|
|
|
|
Many has seen its true form. None has been able to go back to the same self they were before.
|
|
|
|
|
So please just step back, mortal. Give yourself over to your curiousity, and you will regret it.
|
|
|
|
|
You will pay for it, just like the other ones. You cannot escape that fate.
|
|
|
|
|
I could not save those unfortunate souls, but at least I can stop you.
|
|
|
|
|
Believe me, when I say that you should not go any further.
|
|
|
|
|
Ignorance is bliss, mortal.
|
|
|
|
|
Do you not hear me?
|
|
|
|
|
What exactly is it, that you think is worth all of this?
|
|
|
|
|
You just do not understand what you are getting yourself into.
|
|
|
|
|
You are not changing my mind.
|
|
|
|
|
What exactly is it, that you think is worth all of this?
|
|
|
|
|
You just do not understand what you are getting yourself into.
|
|
|
|
|
Consider this my last warning and step back.
|
|
|
|
|
Do not hate me for this.
|
|
|
|
|
...
|
|
|
|
|
Was that what you were looking for?
|
|
|
|
|
Well, what's done is done. Be careful what you wish for next time.
|
|
|
|
|
You may see me repeating the same text, if you interact with me for long enough.
|
|
|
|
|
I'm not sure what's so appealing about this, but I don't mind entertaining you for a little more.
|
|
|
|
|
I am just speaking random things at this point.
|
|
|
|
|
Feel free to leave, if you feel bored.
|
|
|
|
|
Did you expect a full-fledged video player? With videos to choose, and pause buttons, and sliders?
|
|
|
|
|
Well, sorry to disappoint you.
|
|
|
|
|
Those lazy devs...
|
|
|
|
|
Sorry if you expected a whole text-based RPG or something.
|
|
|
|
|
I admit that my interactions were quite linear. It was just from one line of text to another...
|
|
|
|
|
...with little to no player choices. Don't blame me though. Blame the devs.
|
|
|
|
|
Don't you have anything better to do?
|
|
|
|
|
Tackle some Codeforces problems, touch some grass, anything.
|
|
|
|
|
This was one grand project, you know.
|
|
|
|
|
It's far from perfect, but I do hope you're enjoying it.
|
|
|
|
|
Now that you have seen the Thing... It's not like you'd watch it for the second time, right?
|
|
|
|
|
Yea, I thought so.
|
|
|
|
|
What? You would like to watch it... Again?
|
|
|
|
|
I don't really get it, but if you insist...
|
