FALLENTALE: PRESERVING [KINDNESS]

THE CARETAKER

[THE RUINS]

DAHLIA POV:

We continued exploring the halls, there were vines peeking out the cracks, broken pillars, and other monsters we get to meet! Although, I did most of the work while Sage was just either watching or sleeping while standing. He's strange but he made up his strangeness by making some puns along the way.

I also started getting used to his weird behaviors. Huzzah!

What's also interesting about the [Ruins], most of them weren't repetitive but that one puzzle about pushing the rocks really astounded and irked me simultaneously.

'Hey!'

Dahlia was startled when the rock suddenly talked as they were about to push it.

'Don't you know it's rude to move a monster without their permission?'

The child apologize to the rock and glare at Sage because they know he knows about the sentient rock.

Sage only laughed in response.

Dahlia asks the rock to move politely.

'Oh, well if you say so' It moved on to the platform where the spikes moved down. They went to try and exit the room only for the spikes to rise again. Dahlia turned around to see the rock a step further away the platform.

The child look like they was about to blow a fuse and Sage continued to laugh harder.

I sighed but it wasn't that bad... if you don't count the last times.

Those are stories that will probably never be seen in the light of day again, especially the Vegetoi.

I shuddered at the thought.

Sage and I continued to walk down the purple halls and I noticed that there were less vegetation and no cracks on the walls. After taking another turn, I saw a mini structure with white stairs and a dead tree in front of it. Then, a big figure appeared out of the entrance.
