Pacifist (On Hold)

Chapter 3: The motherly figure

There stood an adult, female, white, goat like creature that wore a long purple dress that went to her ankles, with long wide white sleeves she approached you quickly before stopping in front of you.

"What a terrible creature, torturing such a poor, innocent youth..."
She said to you in a gentle voice.
Taking a step back, you looked up at her as she looked at you with a warming smile. Suddenly you glowed again until your SOUL disappeared.
She saw the fear and confusion on your face and added on gently,

"Ah, do not be afraid my child. I am Toriel, caretaker of the RUINS. I pass through here everyday to see if anyone has fallen down"

You slowly took a step closer to her. You felt as if a friendly aura was surrounding Toriel that you didn't feel around Flowey earlier.

"Your the first human to come here in a long time."
Toriel informed you calmly as she crouched to your height and gave you a smile your (e/c) eyes looking into her brown eyes.
"Really?"
You asked in surprise as you rolled up your jumper's sleeves and looked away slightly.

"Yes my child, you are. Come. I will guide you through the catacombs."
Toriel said gently as she stood up straight and turned her back to face you..

"This way."
Toriel then added on before she started to walk straightforwards. You decided to follow her, making sure to keep up with her as you went through a purple archway that had the same patterns as the black archway earlier on.

Both you and Toriel both entered a large room that was pinkish-purple in colour on either side were large grey steps that both lead to the next level.
You paused for a moment as you noticed a yellow star like shape in front of a large pile of leaves, you then decided to approach it, holding your hand out to touch it. Once you touched it, you felt a warm feeling go through your body which made you feel better. You then let go of the star before going up the stone stairs where Toriel was patiently waiting for you. Once you reached the top, Toriel went through another archway, you following her behind.

There was another pinkish-purple room with six squares on the right hand side on the ground and a yellow lever on the wall.

"Welcome to your new home, innocent one. Allow me to educate you in the operations of the RUINS."
Toriel said to you as she briefly faced you before walking over four of the squares, making them go into the ground before she pressed the lever causing the large double doors to open. Toriel then walked back into the middle of the room, you went closer to her.

"The RUINS are full of puzzles. Ancient fusions between diversions and doorkeys. One must solve them to move from room to room. Please adjust yourself to the sight of them."
You walked closer to the squares, what appeared to be switches and looked at them thoughtfully before walking over to the lever. Toriel walked out of the room, you thought it was best to follow her.

There was another room which was much larger than the previous room you was just in. There was small rivers with brown bridges over them and some ivy was on the wall. Toriel was standing near a small, brown sign you ignored the sign and went over to Toriel.

"To make progress here, you will need to trigger several switches. Do not worry I have labeled the ones you have to flip."

Toriel then walked over the first bridge. You turned to face the sign and red it
~~
Afterwards you walked over the bridge.

"The first switch is on the wall."
Toriel informed you as you approached her.
Turning to your left, you saw a switch with yellow arrows on it and walked over to it and pulled it down as Toriel crossed the second bridge. You then walked over the bridge and saw two switches next to each other. Walking over to the switches, you saw that the first switch had arrows pointing to it but the second one didn't, you decided to pull the first switch causing a clank sound from behind where Toriel was standing.

"Splendid! I'm proud of you, little one."
Toriel happily congratulated to you as you walked closer to her and you couldn't help but smile.
"Let us go move to the next room."
Toriel added on as she walked into the next room.

The next room was smaller than the previous room. and was empty besides one cream coloured dummy that was near the right and side wall. and a large purple double door at the end of the room.

Toriel turned to face you as she told you,
"As a human living in the UNDERGROUND, monsters may attack you. You will need to be prepared for this situation. However, worry not! The process is simple. When you encounter a monster, you will enter a FIGHT. While you are in a FIGHT, strike up a friendly conversation."

Toriel then reassured you,
"Stall for time. I will come to resolve the conflict."

You nodded your head once as you listened to what Toriel told you as you both walked over to the dummy. As soon as you approached the dummy, you glowed again before your SOUL came in front of you.
For some reason you decided to talk to the dummy obviously, it didn't reply to you.

"Ah, very good! You are very good."
Toriel proudly said to you as a pleased smile was on her face. Turning, to face Toriel you smiled at her before you both walked through another archway as your SOUL went again.

Both of you entered another room that was large like a previous room. Toriel then looked to her right as she kept facing you.

"There is another puzzle in this room....I wonder if you can solve it?"
Both of you continued to walk across the room which was empty. Suddenly, a small, white frog like creature jumped in front of you and your SOUL came out again.

"Aww your so cute."
You complimented to the frog creature causing it to blush despite it not understanding you.
Toriel walked over to the frog and gave it a look causing it to quickly bounce away. Both of you continued to walk unit you reached a bridge that led to many spikes over a vast amount of water.

"This is a puzzle but... here, take my hand for a moment."
Toriel said to to as she held her hand out. Trusting Toriel, you held her hand. Toriel led you over the spikes, in a pattern. After three minutes you reached the other side.

"Puzzles seem a little too dangerous for now."
Toriel told you as you let go of each others hands. as you walked into the other room.
