*Shakes my head*
That is yet to be seen.

@Etcetera

Did some guy appear to you as well?

Unfortunately so.

@Etcetera

... Would the simulation conjure up something that elaborate?

@Multifarious

It’s possible, but I fail to see how it would be useful to the simulation to do that. Perhaps to trap us in an infinite loop, but that can be circumvented by other measures.

*Looks down*
An ancient presence significant to the Hidden Elements somehow has the means to show himself to us here?... I can't wait to ask Rythian to make sense of this for me.

@Multifarious

*Approaches from within the quickly clearing fog*
I heard my name?

@Multifarious

You’re permitted to remember that encounter?

@Valiance

Hello again. Our time here has been... difficult, to say the least.

@Etcetera

He just told me you weren't.

@Multifarious

I see. That’s likely for the best.

@Etcetera

The calming of the spirits give me the impression you definitely had some kind of experience.

One that makes it imperative that we escape this place.

*Stands there for a moment, waiting for the discussion to continue before realizing*
... Oh, right.
*Sets the books down, taking one and showing it to Rythian*
The contents of the records here don't match what they are in the real one at all, and are borderline nonsensical.
*Flips a few pages and points at it*
I mean, do you really expect me to believe that this is the purpose of the physical manifestation of time?

@Multifarious

Are these pages safe to observe?

@Etcetera

You've already crossed a line, apparently. Best to avoid making things any worse just because we assume something is okay.
*Angles the book upward to hide the contents from your view more*

*The world starts to shake as large chunks of the surrounding structures collapse and layers of reality violently peel away from each other*

*Strips of reality sling themselves in wild directions, several of the ribbons affixing themselves to us, as the lab chamber phases in beneath the crumbling façade of the dimension*

@Etcetera

That was a much more intense effect for ending the scene.
