Without a doubt, what's in front of you is a closet.
System
It is — based on all the signals coming in from your sensory organs — a perfect closet. Design, capacity, tactility, build quality, and scent... No matter how you look at it, you can't possibly think of a better closet.
System
Wait a minute, scent? How is scent a measurement of how good a closet is?
System
Doesn't matter. It smells good. And it's not an odor of typical sandalwood or any other natural materials... Rather, it is a miraculously cleansing scent that is completely artificial, a marvel of chemical engineering. It is so alluring that all you want is to get into the closet and let your whole body soak in its scent.
Options
Whatever, I'm going in. Here I come, closet!
Resist the lethal temptation.
System
Yes... you are about to go in!
System
Left foot... Right foot... Turn around... Take a deep breath... Darn it, why a deep breath? You wanna sneeze, but manage to suppress it... Stand firm... And then...
System
...close the door in one smooth move. Bang!
System
Congratulations! You've now been merged with the universe's most perfect closet as one single entity.
System
But honestly, your mood is far from reaching the state of "excitement." Perhaps you need more time to comprehend the subtle wonder in all this.
System
Hmm... This place might seem a little too dark for you. Guess you will eventually get used to it, right?
Options
Dark night gifted me a set of dark eyes...
I want out.
System
Ha, that's the spirit! Give it more time. Adapt to this dark environment.
System
Go out? Are you sure? No, I don't think that'd be good for you.
System
Trust yourself. Just wait a little longer... Something more interesting than this pitch darkness will occur. It's guaranteed to be the real deal.
System
Wait, did you hear that? A sound is closing in. Click, click....
Options
It's just someone walking in the corridor.
The real deal is coming?
System
You've got to change your nihilistic views on life, pal. No, that's not the sound of human footsteps. That's...
System
That's exactly right! Just think about it. Now, take a guess. Whose footsteps are those?
Options
Room service.
The Goethe Hotel's devil...
System
Go wild. Use your imagination!
System
No, that's not room service... That's the Goethe Hotel's resident devil! It hibernates in dirty unattended small attics, specifically feeding on innocent and vulnerable outsiders.
System
Yes, yes! Now you finally get it!
System
That's the Goethe Hotel's resident devil! It hibernates in dirty unattended small attics, specifically feeding on innocent and vulnerable outsiders.
System
It picked the wrong opponent to mess with this time. After all, you are the universally renowned Trailblazer, the guardian deity of the Herta Space Station, the Doomsday Beast's... um... Doom. Yep. Today is the day you purge evil for the greater good!
System
It doesn't seem to be that dark in the closet. The light of valor illuminates your surroundings. Wow.
???
Room service... Is anyone in there?
System
Ha, there it is! All hotel devils love to disguise themselves as "room service." Such a cliche.
System
You won't be easily fooled by it. Your mind is stronger than those city walls built by Qlipoth. You are prepared.
???
Um... I'm gonna come in now, okay?
System
Now, devil, meet your judgment!
Options
Bang! The closet's door slams open.
"Die! You hotel devil!"
???
Ah! Ahhhh! What the heck!
System
You won! The Goethe Hotel's devil is now banished, and this land is now purified.
System
Um... That devil seems to have left something behind. Take it as your reward for your intrepidity.
System
You manage to resist the temptation. And now, you'd better stay away from the closet... As ambrosial as its chemical scent might be, it probably won't do you any good.
