Count Stygian and Anastasia are in the main chambers, as they wait for the team to arrive in the castle.

"Count.."
"Speak..."
"I just got a quick ping in your inbox? It says this: "We would like to notify you, and everyone else involved in the brainwashings that House of Baloo 2, 3 has reached 800 reads!""
"That's the whole thing- all in its entirety. Yeah."
"Count Stygian is confused. What is House of Baloo? Perhaps a book? Why didn't they just wait until we hit 1000? It's more pleasurable."
Suddenly, Anastasia and Stygian hear a voice.
Count Stygian. Do NOT break the fourth wall!
"What? Who speaks?"
"...Asks Count Stygian..."
Me. I am talking to YOU, count. Do not break the fourth wall or some 5th dimension interdimensional destruction will happen!
"..."
"Let's just ignore that.."
"Books. Fourth wall. We are trapped inside some digital website that allows you to write whatever you want. We can't escape, Anastasia. We are trapped infinity."
"Yeah. Makes sense."
"..."
Suddenly, Stygian pulls out some weird modified computer.
"..."
"I'm described as a "man with a tophat and a monacle". This fascinating story also says I wear a cape."
"Well isn't that interesting? We're in a book, perhaps we don't even exist. Is House of Baloo a lie? We may never know."
"Count Stygian suggests we stop this forth wall breaking before some really catastrophic events happen.."
"Timpani may die..."
"Count... if I may ask..."
"Where did you get that computer from?"
Suddenly, the whole castle shakes violently, then stops.
"This is happening because of the fourth wall breaking. Stop."
Well, I would just like to say congrats on 800 reads! Will we hit 1000?
"..."
Stygian disappears.
