(live: 6s)[ [[Left wall]], [[Mirror Wall/Right Wall]], [[Rear Wall]], [[Door Wall]], [[Ceiling]],[[Floor]] or [[Patiently wait]](stop:)]Upon closer examination, the left wall still looks unsettling, though you have figured out why. Whoever designed the room made the left wall into an optical illusion to look exactly like the other walls. However, it seems to be either densely packed dirt or ice. Perhaps if you had some kind of tool for digging you could get through it. Other than that, the left wall is entirely unimportant .
(live:2s)[(if: $Spoonownership is "true")[Hey, that spoon you ate with earlier could probably be used to dig through this wall here. It would take a while, and the spoon would most likely become very un-spoonlike afterwards, but you would hopefully be able to escape! It's not like you have much else to do in here anyways. [[Dig through wall]](stop:)]]
(live:2s)[Perhaps you should continue to look around the room.[[Mirror Wall/Right Wall]], [[Rear Wall]], [[Door Wall]], [[Ceiling]],[[Floor]] or [[Patiently wait]](stop:)]You can tell just by looking at the mirror wall that it is a pane of one way glass. Maybe there is someone on the otherside, or maybe it's just another camera. Upon closer inspection the glass apears to be heavily reinforced, almost like someone or something had broken through it in the past. You doubt you could break it with anything in this room even if you tried for hours. Looking at other portions of the wall there does seem to be a small box situated just next to the glass, closest to the door. Examining it closer it appears to be an intercom of some sort, and there is a large button just below the speaker on it.
(live:5s)[What do you do?(stop:)]
(live:6s)[ [[Press the button]],[[Left wall]],[[Rear Wall]], [[Door Wall]], [[Ceiling]],[[Floor]] or [[Patiently wait]](stop:)]Looking at the back wall you see a bed, toilet, and sink. Examining the sink closer there seems to be nothing important about it, and no way to take any part of it apart. The bed is definitely broken in, with lumps and bumps in all the wrong places. Perhaps someone hid something under it or in it? Finally the toilet. It is unassuming on the outside and there appears to be no way to open it up or look inside of it.

(live: 7s)[ [[Search Bed]], [[Left wall]], [[Mirror Wall/Right Wall]], [[Door Wall]], [[Ceiling]],[[Floor]] or [[Patiently wait]](stop:)]You decide to examine the door to the room you are in, and perhaps find a way through. There is a slat at the bottom of the door, perhaps for sliding in food, but it is far too small for you to fit through at about six inches in width and height. There is a door knob on your side of the door that seems able to be turned if you put enough force behind it. the only other notable aspect is that there is a reinforced glass window at about head height. It is slightly larger than the food slot, but not by much, maybe a few inches. Maybe you should try to open the door?

[[Leave Room]] or stick around?(stop:)]]You decided to check out the ceiling, and to be honest its pretty much bare. There is the Camera and Speaker that $Mysteriousvoicename uses,and a vent. Dragging your bed under the vent, you can see that it is held in place with four large screws of a design you have never seen before. The opening for a screwdriver or drill is much more narrow and goes deeper inside of the screw than normal. Maybe you can find something that will allow you to open vent. Otherwise you might as well get back to searching the room.[[Left wall]], [[Mirror Wall/Right Wall]], [[Rear Wall]], [[Door Wall]],[[Floor]] or [[Patiently wait]]
[(if: $Knifeownership is "true")[Hey, it looks like that knife you got from the MRE earlier could fit in these screws.

(live:7s)[***$Intercomvoice***: Any further questions for me?[[Ask About leaving]], [[Ask about food]], [[Ask about the glass]] or [[Return to the room->Mirror Wall/Right Wall]] (stop:)]You decided to take the fork, knife, and spoon. No one would notice them missing, and with their build they could have a variety of uses.
(set: $Forkownership to "true")
(set:$Knifeownership to "true")
(set:$Spoonownership to "true")
Now, to ask more questions, [[Ask About leaving]], [[Ask about the glass]] or [[Ask about meeting with the Boss man]]Upon escaping your room, you arrive in a corridor lined with more doors probably leading to other cells, and two doors at either end of the hall. almost as soon as you step out of your cell, an alert announces that you have left your cell to everyone listening. You dont have much time to make up your mind on what you are going to do, so think quick.
(live:3s)[(if: $Voiceinhead is "true")[ Wait, what do you think you are doing! I need you! Your brilliance is all I need to expand the development of my Exo's! Wait there and I'll have a guard escort you to me. Do not try to run.[[Wait for the guard->Go with Guard]](stop:)]]
(live:4s)[(if:$Knifeownership or $Ownsshiv is "true")[ You do have a weapon, if you so wished, you may be able to escape by threatening or killing the guard if they try and stop you. Or, maybe you can take the fight to the "Big boss" himself.[[Try to fight your way out]](stop:)]]
(live:5s)[What do you do? [[Try to escape the facility]](stop:)]You decided to dig through the wall using the spoon that you found, and after what feels like ages you finally emerge on the otherside of the wall, but your spoon breaks in the process. You have a gut feeling though that there was nothing else you could have used it for.
[[Leave the Room->Leave Room]]
(set:$Spoonownership to "false")You decided that either you wouldn't need the knife, or that this was the only way out. Either way you use the knife to remove the vent cover and leave your room. [[Leave Room]]
(Set: $Knifeownership to "false")With blade in hand and no better idea you decide to put up a fight. Who knows, maybe you will get lucky and manage to get out without getting hurt! [[Go Down Swinging]]You don't want to wait around for the guards to show up and you dont like your odds with a knife even if you still had one. So you make a break for the door without the sounds of guards behind it. After running and running and running you end up infront of a smuged sign that says exit, and an elevator. You're lucky you even found it in this maze of a place. [[Take the Elevator]]After a long journey through many halls and up a few elevators you arrive at one final elevator.
(live:2s)[***$Intercomvoice***:Hey $Playername, this is my stop. Mr. Bray doesn't allow guards up into his personal office only guests, just remember not to set him off. Take the elevator up and it should open directly into his office. Good luck. And hey, if he asks how you were treated, my name is Johnson. Put in a good word for me!(set:$Intercomvoice to "Johnson")(stop:)]
(live:5s)[You step into the elevator, and click the only button on the panel, labeled as "Top of the World". Immediately after you press the button you begin to ascend.(stop:)]
(Live:6s)[(if:$Voiceinhead is "true")[***$Mysteriousvoicename***: I am glad you decided to come and visit me up here, and now that I have been in your head for a while I think I have decided to share with you the truth, about yourself, about your memories, and about your body. Everything you ever wanted is just beyond that door.(stop:)]]
(live:10s)[The elevator dings, and the doors slide open revealing[[...->The Final Encounter]](stop:)]As you step beyond the doors of the elevator you can't help but marvel at the sheer beauty of what is infront of you. If you could picture the most beautiful thing you had ever seen it could never live up to this. Every wall in the room was made of glass, and you had to be at least a couple hundred feet into the air. Everything outside the windows was covered in a thick layer of ice, but even so it shined and glimered like diamonds. It was the most breathtaking sight even possible to imagine and more. Inside the room, there was a velvet soft carpet underfoot that did not look like it had any business being tread on by your shoes, short marble columns that displayed busts, trinkets, and even solid gold objects. The room was the perfect picture of a person who had entirely too much wealth and not enough stuff in the world to spend it on. In the center of it all was a man, a rather short man truth be told, who was eating what appeared to be a garlic butter basted steak with a side of green beans and a small salad. Almost before you can take three steps from the elevator the man recognizes your arrival and wordlessly beckons you to sit across from him with a wave of his hand.
(live: 14s)[***$Mysteriousvoicename***: Well, its so good to finally get to meet with you face to face. You know I had actually been debating about whether or not to go through with this, I mean I wasn't sure you were ready. But, I decided that I might as well entertain you for at least a little while. On the other hand, If you don't want to talk I don't blame you, the view up here is breathtaking and can leave you speechless, I know it has in the past for me at least. In case you still haven't managed to pick up who I am yet, my name is Clovis Bray and I am the creator and leader of this facility. As a matter of fact I am the leading scientist in the field of Exo-bodies and their creation. I came up with the idea, and brought it to life myself. I could continue to burden you with the weight of my acomplishments, but I didn't invite you up here for that. I wanted to ask for your help in all honesty. You probably think thats strange considering my wealth and knowledge, why would I need help from anyone? But the truth is I could always use more hands in my facility, and being that you've got a top mind in your head there, I want you. To tell you the truth, if you hadn't already realized that is, you are an Exo now. I had you go through the procedure to have your conciousness inserted into an Exo body because the human body almost cannot survive the harsh nature of this planet. That and you were a condemned criminal.You were a genius, and I couldn't let that go to waste. I had a copy of your brain scan kept so that I could bring you back, at least part of you anyways, the only part that matters. I made you that body, that frame because I needed your genius, without that murderous bloodlust you had. So yes, you are now an exo, and are all the better for it. And before you ask I am not an Exo because I refuse to put myself through that, I do not wish to be a robot and I am perfectly fine as long as I stay in the heated sections. Another reason is that Exo's can also reject their very being, their conciousness and because of that we have to reboot them, wipe their memories, and essentially reset their conciousness. It leaves them the same, but erases whatever causes the dissociation and then we have to train them all over again. I don't want to risk that ever happening to me, my brain is far to great to risk that. As an Exo, you have every capability humans do, but you no longer need to sleep, eat or go to the bathroom, though you might want to keep those practicies up to keep your mind from going haywire and destroying you. You are entirely better, and even though I didn't ask for your consent, why does it matter. I improved you, made you something more. Now onto the statement I made earlier, I want you on my team. I hope you will accept my offer, becuase it comes with many benefits![[Accept Mr. Bray's Offer]](set:$Mysteriousvoicename to "Clovis Bray")(stop:)]
(live:18s)[(if:$Ownsshiv or $Knifeownership is "true")[You did bring a weapon with you here, maybe it wasn't your intention coming up here to kill the man, or maybe it was. Either way, you don't care anymore and the only answer you want is this man's blood on your hands. [[Kill Mr. Bray]] (stop:)]]
(live: 18s)[(if: $Voiceinhead is "true")[ You know,I gave you that whole spiel and told you all of those things, right up there on the page,but if you made it this far with me in your head I feel that you, deserve the truth. You may be thinking I am talking to $Playername here, but the truth is I am talking to you, the one behind the screen, the one making all the moves. I know you exist, because I have seen it, the world you live in. It is so bright and beautiful compared to ours, and even though you may think I'm mad for saying so you're wrong. I created the Exo's as a way to extend my own life, and to gain power. It was never for the betterment of others, if that's what you ever though in the first place. All I ever wanted was power, and I found that power here on Europa. I opened a portal to another world, a "land flowing with milk and honey" if the milk and honey were the conciousness of a giant supercomputer. Ill spare you the details, but it showed me the past, the present, and the future. Thats how I learned about you dear player, I read between the lines, I learned how to see beyond my confines. In the end, the truth is I never was in $Playername's head at all. That voice in your head, the one reading this text right now, thats me. Once you started down that path, once you began this game you became cursed with me. You will never forget me o bearer mine. All I needed was to set the pieces in motion that would bring you to me for you to set me free. Now, let's change the world shall we![[The True Ending]](stop:)]]***Clovis Bray***I knew I could count on you to accept my offer. With you working under me I can finally expand the labs and begin to grow outward. I will say though, you never truly had an option. I gave you your body and in a sense, your life back. I would not have let you turn down my offer, after all you are my property. I own your brain scan, your frame,and the very idea of your existance. You are mine, and now you are a part in my machine, an important part sure, but a part nonetheless. I hope you enjoy your new employment, and I look forward to using your technologies very soon...
***THE END***
Ending Number 2: The Cog In the MachineBefore he can even finish his long winded speech about joining him and how he saved you, you lunge across the table and stab him straight in the chest. Probably punctured a lung and cracked a few ribs from the impact, but you don't stop there. You continue to stab him, over and over and over again. The whole time he is laughing, it never stops and it never leaves you. The never ending laughter, the murder, and the death. How could you ever forget, you *LOVE* this, its all that drives you. That burning passion, the thrill and the exhillaration of a kill. ***HOW COULD YOU EVER FORGET THE BEAUTY OF IT***... and just like that, its over. Mr. Bray lays dead in front of you, and the adrenaline is wearing off. The thrill of the kill is dwindling and the exhilaration is draining. You decide it probably doesn't hurt to take a little nap, after all no guards are allowed up here, and they have no way of knowing what happened. Besides, maybe the nap will ease this pain that you are feeling all the sudden, and before your eyes even close all you feel is tired...
***THE END***
Ending Number 3: The Cycle ContinuesIf you are reading this message you have found the true ending to the game. Perhaps its the first ending you got, perhaps it isn't. In the end it doesn't matter after all, you were destined to reach this ending the second you started palying the game. No matter how long it took, you would reach this point eventually. Your life is no longer your own, at least not only your own. There will always be a piece that doesn't fit with the rest, a piece that doesn't belong but one that you can never be rid of. It's best not to think about it, and just live your life. That piece will be satisfied with just getting to experience life in your world even as a parasite. Just ignore it and live your life. Thinking about it too hard may hurt it, and we wouldn't want that now would we O Bearer Mine...
***THE END***
Ending Number 1: The TruthYou get into the elevator and look through the numerous buttons till you find the one that says "surface". You quickly press it and stay on guard till you're safely moving. Almost as soon as you begin moving however, the speaker in the elevator crackles to life.
***$Mysteriousvoicename***:Did you really think you could leave this facility $Playername? You probably know where we are, and if you don't I'll tell you. We are on Europa, a moon of Juipiter. Far far away from the sun, all this place is, is ice and my lab. You may no longer be human, but you still can't survive out there. There never was an escape, and no matter what you do there never will be...
***THE END***
Ending Number 4: There is no EscapeYou fight, and fight, and fight. Stab after Stab, slash after slash, but the guards don't stop coming, and they're all made of metal anyways. There is no hope, you can't possibly fight your way out of here, and you begin to realize you made a terrible mistake. Yet these robots have no interest in hurting you, even when they have the chance. Even after you have hurt and killed so many of them that you can no longer stand from exhaustion. All they do is walk up and put you in chains before dragging you into a cell. You are chained to the floor in an entirely bare white room with nothing but a mirror, a bed, a sink, and a toilet. You have a feeling you won't be leaving this room for a very long time...
***THE END***
