You know the guy. And I’m sure you realize it’s more complicated than that, even if you don’t know why.

@Multifarious

Perhaps, but would the system know that? There are more unknowns than I'm comfortable with.

Myriad Reality

*Looks around the corridor*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Nope, just the fields above us.

@Unhinged

I see. Curious.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Let’s not wait for sprits to manifest any further! C’mon!
*A black portal opens beneath each of us, sucking us in and dropping us into an ancient looking stone hallway*

@Unhinged

Did you visit this place when you were here recently?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

The same one we’re confident isn’t real to begin with, which means I’d almost bet the location isn’t real either.

@Unhinged

You're welcome to check. Maybe we can glean some information.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Then destroying this place has more dire consequences than us being trapped here would ever have.

@Multifarious

Which should be something your teacher would care about.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

I’d imagine that the information the simulation would try to fill in place of the actual information would be akin to the kind of gibberish the mind makes up to put in the pages of books in a dream, and things like that. There’s no way it gets any amount of it right unless Zoey’s visit there let it glean literally everything.

@Multifarious

Which I doubt. On the other hand, what if this location is real?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

The knowledge that line the walls of the halls beneath us, and texts within the literature itself would have to be totally accurate, no? The Hidden Elements’ history and functionality are a close kept secret that would be impossible to learn unless you’re attuned with them.

@Multifarious

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

So if we were to analyze some of them and find inaccuracies, that would be absolute proof! Yes!

@Unhinged

*Taps at my arm, disengaging the system*
And that's something you can complete relatively quickly?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Not even really necessary. What if we can prove it?

@Multifarious

Hm... do you have a plan to do so?

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Etcetera>

Do you think it’s really simulated these grounds and its secrets to perfection?

@Multifarious

All the more incentive for our virtual friend to take action.
