>You wake up

>Open diary again

 

>whimper in existential dread.
This doesn't do very much. It does make you feel better.

>talk to definitely not tea
It screams at you.

>Open diary again.
The voice says oh goddamn finally. Hello, again, Alex.
You are pretty sure your name isn't Alex.

 

>attempt to feed the notebook face a piece of the definitely not tea

 

> ask voice about its knowledge base

 

> finally ask the notebook what the fuck is going on

> ask notebook if it's offended by profanity

 

>Ask it why it calls you Alex, and who is Alex anyway?

 

It screams at you.

Goddamned finally, it says, I know more about this cave than you could possibly dream of with any kind of bizarre taste testing. Or odd stabbing. Mostly I know that you've been walking in entirely the wrong direction.

What's going on is that you've been chosen to be food. I've been chosen to help you not be food. I'd suggest avoiding the soft part of the cave, if I were you. The light doesn't like it.

What the fuck do you think.

 

Alex is the person on the card in your wallet.
That is your wallet, yes?

 

>Inform it you're not Alex, and tell the notebook your actual name

 

> ask the notebook which direction you should be going

 

>Inform it you're not Alex, and tell the notebook your actual name.
You inform it you're not Alex, but you are at a loss as to your actual name for the moment.

>Ask the notebook which direction you should be going.
Directly across the cavern to the west from the stalagmite. There will be a stalactite. You should probably grab it.

 

> head back to the stalagmite

 

>Try to remember anything about yourself

 

> head back to the stalagmite
You do so. It is definitely not glowing.

>Try to remember anything about yourself.
Your name. It is on the tip of your tongue.
What is it?

 

> begin heading directly across the cavern to the west of the stalagmite
> give yourself a nickname until you remember your real name

 

>begin heading directly across the cavern to the west of the stalagmite
eventually, you see a stalactite.
>give yourself a nickname until you remember your real name
what is it?

 

>Alec Zander.

 

> pick up stalactite
> nickname yourself Dakota

 

>Alec Zander
Your ex-partner.

>pick up stalactite
You cannot pick up the stalactite.
>nickname yourself Dakota
Your nickname is now Dakota.
You tell the notebook such.

 

> ask the notebook how to grab the stalactite
