~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

welcome to your new home, innocent one

allow me to educate you in the operation of the ruins.

*TORIEL walks alone the sides of a crystal shaped button pattern.*

come now young one we have much to do.

okay TORIEL.

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 enter another corridor*

sign: only the fearless may proceed.

brave ones, foolish ones.

both not walk the middle road.

to make progress here, you will need to trigger several switches.

do not worry child, i have labeled the ones that you need to flip.

*TORIEL walks to the end of the switch and points to it*

*i guess it's easy enough.*

it's a bit stiff TORIEL.

do not worry child it is possible the other children before you have flipped the switches easily

*weakling*

what who said that?

who said what child?

*you turn around to see another older child floating behind you*

*they put their finger over their lips and winks*

*your filled with fear*

okay im just going to flip the switches.
