...
...
A light shines upon you...it glimmers through the hole you've made, falling down here.
You definitely came from up there, but there's absolutely no going back.
The smell of trees and flowers, coming from the hole mixes with the smell of the humid rocks that surround you. Not the best smell in the world, but you somehow manage to ignore it and keep looking around.
You see something that resembles a doorway...you stare at it intently and decide to walk towards it.
You're happy you didn't hurt yourself too much, with the fall, considering that wherever you landed obviously didn't have any doctors.
As your head fills up with questions surrounding the convenience of not having fall damage, you stumble upon a field of beautiful golden flowers.
In the middle, there's a flower that especially catches your eyes, but as you get closer to it, you feel like you're ripping off Undertale more than enough.
You follow the flowers with no apparent direction, apart from forward, since you can't see the walls because of the lighting.
You suddenly hit a wall, and begin touching it everywhere, looking for another doorway of some sort.
...suddenly you feel your hand getting squeezed...
You freeze.
The hand is cold, but somehow, you feel that whoever's holding your hand doesn't have bad intentions.
Then, you hear a voice, slightly echoing through the room.
*hey, kid.
*you're not from around here, are ya?
*well...won't you introduce yourself?
*or how about i call you frisk or something?
*...
*ah.
*not good enough for ya, eh?
*we'll think about that later, kiddo.

You feel strangely calm and move a little to where you heard the voice, finding another doorway that you didn't see before.
The voice seems to have shifted to somewhere in front of you.
You keep walking forwards, hearing your footsteps echo.
Suddenly, you see a shining light, warmly lighting up the area.
It seems to be a window...so you walk a little faster towards it.
On the left of it you see a door, closed, but not locked. Yep, this is a house.
You put a hand on the warm doorknob, entering the welcoming home.
You blink repeatedly to let your eyes settle from the sudden change of lighting.
As you rub your eyes, you hear the voice from before.

*home sweet home, kiddo.
*as you may have guessed, this is my house, if you can call it one.
*make yourself at home.
*...or don't, your choice.
*have a look around, and...

You finally see the source of the voice.
You widen your eyes.

*heh, everyone reacts like that, kid...
*my name is gyst. Pleasure's all mine.

You get a good look at him.
He's wearing a black hoodie, and has one hand in his pocket, the other extended towards you, offering a handshake.
You look up at his face, and he's smiling a warm and caring smile.
His hair is a golden brown, somehow the softest you've ever seen.

*uh...kid?

You snap back to reality and shake his hand, a little embarrassed.

*you were totally checking me out, you totally were. I don't think jyst would be all too happy you did...
*heh...heh, i'm kidding, kid.
*listen, as soon as jyst gets home we'll talk about getting you outta here and back where you came from...
*...the surface...
*...
*...you're human, aren't you...?

You notice his expression change to a serious one, and take a step back.

*d o  y o u  k n o w  w h a t  w e  d o  t o  h u m a n s  d o w n  h e r e . . . ?

He tilts his head downwards, looking straight up at you.
You notice his eyes are now pitch black holes, swallowing even light itself.

*kid...outside this house there are monsters just like me...
*...who want humans like you d e a d...
*so...i can't exactly let you go out there like this...
*if any monster saw ya, you'd be sleeping with the three-eyed fishes.
*...kid...
*...you really wanna pass, don't you...?
*...
*...heh.
*'course ya do...everyone misses home...everyone.
*i'm sorry kid.
