Dialogue
*The character, Valencia and Symone climb through a cave without knowing that they are in the middle of Castle Nostromo.*

*Valencia looks down on a cloak scrap lay nearby. Symone accidentally stepped onto a skeleton remains and a gust of wind blow. The three of you quickly got panicked.*


Symone: Run. Now.
Valencia: This way!

*From a distance it seems like a monster is coming its way towards the three of you*

Symone: The door! Help me!

*Symone managed to knock open the door*

Symone: QUICK! Get in and shut the door!!!

*Valencia stick a magical scroll onto the door*

Valencia: Here! I found this scroll years ago in Oaklore storage. It's magic should-

*The monster tries to break open the door but to no avail*

Valencia: What.... What was that?
Symone: That was a monster, Treasure Hunter, and we're trapped in the middle of its lair.
Valencia: Heh, we're not just in the middle of its lair... I think we're in Dyana's room.
Symone: At least you'll have something to read while I take care of the current resident.

    spoiler:

    (Page 1) I hate it here. I hate my family. Why couldn't I have been a Valorous? We're supposed to hate them because the dragons favored them and then Lord Valorous disappeared with their gift... I bet he went on an adventure! He went to save a town from the Night Knight Pugs Frydae or the Goddess Arkana! He's probably been trapped in a dungeon or under a spell for the last 400 years... one day he'll come back with the dragon's gift and I won't have to be afraid anymore. He'll save me and all the townspeople from my family and we'll go and stop the Drakaths, and the Frydae's, and the Darkspyre's. and the Duat's and all the fighting will finally be over....

    (Page 2) Jaysun broke all my mixing bowls. Mother just looked at me with disappointment. How am I supposed to defend myself against him? I hate fighting. I hate hurting people. Jaysun loves it! "He's already broken three masks and he's two years younger than you!" I hate masks. I hate them! Mother and Father took us both down to the tomb so he could hang his masks and with every coffin we passed, Jaysun just bragged about how he would have even more broken masks than Great Great Great Grandma Ripley or ol' Grandpa Fredrick. It just creeps me out to go down there.....

    (Page 3) Grandpa Walter said he would teach me about potions. If I can't fight with my fists, I can fight with my mind he said. "If you learn enough, you could be the 'danger"".

    I don't want to be the danger... I want to be the one who bakes.

    But maybe I can learn to make a potion to make Jaysun turn into a frog!

    (Page 4) I took the last sweetroll and I made Jaysun mad... I didn't know he wanted it! I didn't mean to make him mad!

    He took me to the center of the castle... to the old bricked up door... and he just put his hand on it and said he'd let it out. He'd let out the thing Great Grandma Ripley trapped and it would eat me.

    I hate him.

    (Page 5) I don't know why they even want me at war council meetings. I'd rather be baking or cleaning or painting or... anything! I guess Father still holds out hope that I'll discover my "inner warrior".

    It's all just yelling back and forth. Jaysun wants to attack the Drakaths, the Duats, the Iadoas... just everyone! Mother and Father, for all their pride at his pile of broken masks, keep trying to advise caution... to get him to plan his attacks.

    But Jaysun doesn't like to wait for his enemy to come to him.

    (Page 6) Jaysun... he found something out in Deadlands.

    It's a cape. Made of shadow.

    He says it's made of his enemies souls. That with every soul he traps, he'll become even more powerful.

    I'm scared for the Drakaths... for the Duats.... for the Darkspyres... for everyone.

    (Page 7) Mother and Father are... gone. Jaysun was tried of waiting to take over and he... he devoured them.... I thought that his cape was going to take me too but... but he just laughed and I said that I was wasn't worth it... that he needed someone to bake his bread.

    (Page 8) I remember what Grandpa Walter taught me. I remember the stories about Lord Valorous, I've heard about the bravery of Ash Alteon, of the horrors that Great Grandpa Ripley went through to take this castle and trap the evil inside it....

    I can't... I can't kill him... but I can stop him. I can be brave... I can be the danger... I can stop Jaysun.

    I have to.

    (Page 9) Oh, by the Avatars... what's happened? How long have I been asleep for? A man in a hood pulled me from my tomb... My tomb!

    There were shadowy figures around Jaysun's tomb... but all that was left was his mask surrounded by shadow. He should have been asleep! The potion worked on me.... Did... did his shadow cape devour him too?

    The castle is in ruins... I managed to escape them and get to my room but... but whatever was trapped in center is out now. I can hear the screams....

    They wanted me to show them the way out but they have the cape.... I can make a potion to forget.... then no one will ever find it. The Valtrith Clan will finally be buried.

    Directions to Boss fight:
    Entrance -> Down -> Far Left -> Left -> Bottom Left -> 2 Down -> Enter room with a white gem on top -> Walk over to Exosuit


    At one of the spaceship remains:
    Ashendal: Y..y...y...bzzzzzztttt Error in primary...
    Ashendal: Hah. Just kidding.
    Ashendal: This place just felt like it needed the head of an Ash so I wandered in before you got here.
    Ashendal: This ship managed to escape the reset due to the overal mess that the cappuccino made when it spilled.
    Ashendal: That made a bunch of errors like this one that never got fixed. It's still in the process of being corrupted as you can see.
    Ashendal: When you leave I'll hop back to when The Reset finished and see why this never got adjusted or cleared of the Shadowscythe tech.
    Ashendal: You'll have problems of your own soon enough though. Big, chompy, angry, dragony problems.
    Ashendal: I won't lie about your chances, Symone. I also know you probably have no idea what the other stuff I was talking about meant.
    Ashendal: That wasn't really for you, but the person on the other side of that barrier where I'm staring. They can talk in the lore thread on the forums later.
    Ashendal: Alright, off you go. Can't have you sitting around here listening to me drone on. Perfect creature waiting to chomp on you and all that.

    Valencia: It took you long enough.

    Symone: I had to find you some treasure.
    <Character>: Let's get out of here.

    *The character, Valencia and Symone escaped the castle. Meanwhile, several void eggs are about to hatch...*
