While you were wandering around the backyard,
you trip with a rock and fell. Lost your consciousness.
Once you open your eyes, you find yourself in quite a different place.
You have entered the secret garden of the mansion...
The garden is roamed by a witch
who has been living in solitude for many decades now.
At the first glance of her,
you experience chills down your spine.
You have heard the stories
about the evil witch that lives in the hidden garden,
but now that you see her...
she is nothing like what you used to think.
"Welcome wanderers! My name is Khaos and this is my realm.
Many have tried and failed to escape before. But... who knows?
Maybe you will be the lucky one. Ready for the challenge?"
Still feeling a little dizzy you start following the witch through the path.
Initially, you just saw some bushes and plants,
but now that you started walking the forestation seems to be more dense.
The end of the path there were four different paths.
Khaos insisted that you should either pick the 2nd or 3rd path.
But you feel like you cant trust her. So you ended up picked the 4th path.
Yet, you are again in front of the same four paths.
"Confusing, right? This garden is full of mysteries", exclaimed Khaos while giggling, and continued walking.
She's following you.
At one point, she dashed in front of you and with a soft smile said, "Now, pick one" .
She has her arms extended with hands closed.
What will you pick? Left (1&2) or right (3&4)? If you look carefully, you noticed her left hand is closer to you than her right one.
(There are two possible right answers for this route)
As you go deeper in the garden, it starts turning into a forest.
Plants make it hard for you to advance.
You hear the sound of water close to you,
and after some minutes you find a river, and a bridge.
Thin rain starts falling from the sky. You notice it has gotten dark too.
"What are you waiting for?" said Khaos directly looking at you. "Don't waste my time, let's go!" And goes directly to the bridge. "I think Jack left a lantern around here. Will you help me find it?"
You walk to the bridge and start looking around for the lantern.
Suddenly, the once small bridge looks enormous now.
You noticed that every few meters there are torches by the sides.
As you keep walking through the bridge,
you find yourself right in the middle of it.
There is a chest laying on the ground.
"OH LOOK! It's old Jack's elements chest! He sure hid a lantern there!"
There is one symbol per element,
if you press the correct one,
you will get one of the lanterns hidden by Jack.
If you press the wrong one,
the chest will disappear forever. Legend says that the chest is influenced by its surroundings.
So what element will you choose? Fire (1), Air (2), Water (3), Earth (4)?
While walking you noticed that the pathway suddenly lightened up.
At the entrance of the forest, all you can hear now is glittering, sparkling sounds.
Feels like the forest went from wood to glass.
But your assumption was wrong...
The forest is not made of glass,
but it is full of crystals and diamonds.
It feels like you are moving very slowly now, and careful,
as you don't want to break any diamonds.
Can you please walk a bit faster? Don't you know diamonds are not easy to break?
Khaos let out, looking irritated at you.
So you try keep the pace up,
but clumsy as you are, you trip and fall.
SOMETHING TO PICK?
"This feels like deja-vu.",
you mumbled to yourself, as everything around you turns into monochrome.
"Why did you say it feels like it's deja-vu?" asked Khaos.
While looking at her, you explained, "Because I feel like I'm in a new dream. Is this a dream-ception?"
You notice that Khaos is smirking.
She is even giggling to herself without replying to your question. "We're in double dream! Dreaming in a dream is a normal to me..
but I'm not sure if your mind will be fine to make a decision fufufu~" A d-decision?, you asked.
Suddenly, four doors in front of you. Each of them have a different picture grabbed on them.
The first one has two moons (1), second two suns (2), third a sun (3) and the fourth one has a sun and a moon (4).
Which one will you take?
"We are approaching the end of our journey...", said Khaos.
She said it so softly that almost felt like a whisper.
You can't tell if her tone was a sad one or not.
"I really love this place. Magi are my friend...
I'm not really sure if I should end this.
Magi are like fireflies in human world.
But they are different.
They love collecting wishes and
dissipating them whenever there's a shooting star."
Khaos didn't give out a question as this is the last route.
You might be able to escape without saying goodbye to her.
Help Khaos retrieve at least THREE (3) dream fragments
by taking decisions or picking between different options, in order to get out of the Hidden Garden.
Khaos can be a bad witch or good witch at each route. Decide yourself either to trust her or not.
Succeeding in picking the right jack (on each specific route), you'll get ONE (1) dream fragment.
