(I wasn't even expecting to find that out, sorry O: You don't need to feel anything.)

 

"You....you had a daughter?....h-how old is she? I hope she's okay.."

 

"Couldn't be older than eleven or twelve, i'd say."

 

Clarice's eyes shot open in anger.

 

"YOU.........you purposely brought a child into this damned hell-hole?! How could you?! You're a monster!"

 

"She was ready for this."

 

"Nobody's ready for this bullcrap! You're unbelievable!"

(Bah, it's fine. I was debating telling you anyway, but you did it for me.)

Shelby snarls, standing up for his brother.

It's not his fault. It's Them. They're puppeteering this place. They're the reason I look like this.

He gestures angrily to himself.

"Bullshit. Them?...who the hell is Them? Why is everything so damn cryptic? Why is everything f**king batshit crazy around here?!!!"

 

"Having a fit won't make things better...i'm sorry. My brother is right, I really didn't have a choice in the matter....they were very insistent that I drag her into the world....Them. They are a group of very secretive creatures that exist not of flesh and blood, but of pure shadows. They are the ones who truly pull the strings in all of this. Shelby..my brother, your daughter has taken my place. And I am afraid things are going to change very rapidly."

"Easier said than done. They sealed the portal. We don't have a way back at the moment. And They aren't about to open it up again anytime soon."

 

"So.....so, she's doomed?.."

 

"Perhaps. But, then again, perhaps not. I do have an idea. You can thank Tin-Can here for that."

 

Maxwell took his hand off WX-78's forehead, and it's eyes returned to normal.

 

[OBJECTIVE ACCOMPLISHED.]

 

"Yes....yes, it's starting to come together, now.."

"The Door to Adventure is locked. But, it is much like any door. It has a lock, and locks can be forced open under the right conditions. There is a way, but my own cleverness has made things more complicated....I can reopen the Door, but we need the Things, and...well...we'll need to descend below the ruins underground, to find something else, as well.."

"Yes, Anthony. Although, in order to keep him safe from Them, I had to program him to not recognize such a thing. Jack, we should focus on finding the Things first. Save the worst part for last."

 

[iDENTIFICATION COMPLETED....FATHER.]

 

Maxwell chuckled to himself.

 

"Well, uh....we found some boxes and a metal potato-looking thing in an encampment...are those what you're looking for?"

 

"Ah?...I see. That's about half of it. I'm afraid that's not everything, however. The Ring and the Crank are also needed."

Anthony looks at Maxwell with admiration.

Anthony- "You have done an awesome work! May you teach me how to give to my robot a source of energy self-sufficent? Also, about the "things", last week I found a crank looking thing next to a pig house... I haven't collected it, though. But It might still be there."
