𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐍𝐀𝐑𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐎𝐑: ʏᴏᴜ ᴀʀᴇ ᴏɴ a path—

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐅𝐄𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐄: Wrong! This is actually a cabin!

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐍𝐀𝐑𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐎𝐑: This—actually... Is this a cabin? It's definitely not a path in the woods.

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐅𝐄𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐄: See? I'm right! This is a cabin.

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐏𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐂𝐄𝐒𝐒: I'm sorry, do we know you?

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐅𝐄𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐄: You forgot about me...?

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐍𝐀𝐑𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐎𝐑: To get back on topic, now that I look at it, I think you are already in the cabin. I don't know how this happened, but I suppose it makes things a little easier. We'll just have to skip the beginning...

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐍𝐀𝐑𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐎𝐑: The floor of the cabin is covered with sand, seashells dotting colour across it. You can't feel actual floors beneat the sand, and you doubt you could dig to reach it. Large, dead starfish are plastered onto the wall with seaweed hanging down from the ceiling. A piece of seaweed hangs from the centre of the ceiling, reaching out as if to grab something that isn't here.

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐏𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐂𝐄𝐒𝐒: There isn't a pristine key.

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐅𝐄𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐄: Why are you complaining? You couldn't even do anything with it!

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐍𝐀𝐑𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐎𝐑: You can do a lot with a key, such as saving the Hero. If it isn't here, then you'll have to find some other way to save the Hero.

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐏𝐑𝐈𝐍𝐂𝐄𝐒𝐒: We'll keep that in mind—and it wasn't a complaint, just an observation. Now that we know where we are, we can start asking question. First, aren't we supposed to be on a path in the woods?

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐍𝐀𝐑𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐎𝐑: You are. I don't think any of us know why you're here. At least you're able to spend less time saving the Hero if you're already in the cabin.

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐋𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓 𝐎𝐅 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐅𝐄𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐄: I wanna build a sand castle!

𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐍𝐀𝐑𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐎𝐑: That doesn't relate to what we're talking about.
