(Your Name/ Y/N) landed on soft gray flowers. Looking around before moving forward they saw nothing really. Once they walked down a drab corridor they found a door, walking through they came face to face with a flower, much like the gray, but with a face and a resemblance of a narwhal, almost, but not quite.

"Hey, I'm Ross. Ross the Flower. I see you're new to the UnderTube! You must be confused."

(Y/N) nods.

"Someone better teach you how things are around here. I guess I'll have to do. Ready?"

(Y/N) nods again.

"Okay. Let's go!"

(Y/N) chest glows red before came forth into a white box.

"See that? That's your SOUL. It's what you are and it can grow strong if you gain a lot of LV. LV stands for LOVE of course! You want some LOVE, don't you? Don't worry. I'll give you some. LOVE is shared through little white, "friendliness pellet."

(Y/N) thinks (Comment your thought/ CYT), but doesn't dodge them.

"YOU FOOL! IN THIS WORLD IT'S KILL OR BE KILLED! WHY WOULD I PASS UP THIS PERFECT OPPORTUNITY!?"

"Die."

He circles you with the "friendliness pellets" and as the close in you heal and a fireball comes out of nowhere and hits Ross. You turn to see... a human with a camera mask on, concealing that fact, but still being completely obvious.

"Oh who would do such a thing?"

(Y/N) moves away from the man.

"Do not fear me. I am Cory. Caretaker of these ruins. I pass through to see if anyone has fallen down. You are the first to come here in a long time. Come on. I'll show you through the ruins."

(Y/N) nods following as Cory says, "This way."

The ruins were a blandish shade of blue, lacking luster with purple leaves all over.

You see a sparkling yellow thing. You touch it thinking (CYT) as you're filled with determination because of the ruins looming above you. You felt much better, much like when Cory healed you.

Cory waited upon the stairs and as you walked up them, he walked to the entrance of another room. Entering he says:

"Welcome to your new home. These ruins are full of puzzles. One must solve them to move from room to room. Please get used to them." He moved on to the next room.

You read they sign on the wall:

Only the fearless may proceed.

Brave ones, foolish ones.

Both walk not the middle road.

You leave thinking (CYT) about the sign.

In the next room Cory starts speaking as you walk up, "To do this you will need to trigger switches. I have labelled the ones you need to flip."

He walks away and you look at the sign off the path.

Stay on the path.

You think (CYT) and go back on the path, you cross a small bridge and saw a yellow lever with yellow arrows pointing at it with a message next to it.

Press this switch. – Cory

You flick the switch and move across another bridge. There's two switches on the wall, one labelled, one not.

The one labelled had a message next to it.

This one too. – Cory

You flipped the labelled switch and Cory said, "Good job. I'm proud. Let's get to the next room."
