To get you started, here are a few optional prompts for you to use if you so wish:

Prompts
1. [Setting: Elevators] Did you know it takes a half hour to get from the top of the dorms down to the cafeteria by elevator? Well you're finding out now! Strike up a conversation with the others stuck in there with you! Maybe play I Spy or something.

2. [Setting: Floor Eighty-Six] What's with all the mushrooms? And why are they in circles? That's weird--but maybe the mushrooms are edible? On the other hand, maybe you know exactly what these are--and you should really stop that idiot who's going to jump right in the middle of one of the fairy rings before he gets everyone on the floor turned to jell-o or something.

3. [Setting: Floor Seventy-Nine] Fancy some deep-sea diving? Grab some scuba gear, hop off the staircase, and explore some ruins! Just be careful you don't run out of air or run into a shark (or run into a shark while you're running low on air). Of course, if you can breathe underwater or just don't need to breathe at all, then the sharks would be your only worry. Try and find some treasure!

4. [Setting: Floor Fifty-Nine] Is this a torture chamber? Yes it is. Maybe you want to get out of here as soon as possible or maybe this floor really speaks to you. Maybe you want to give that iron maiden try on the first person who happens to wander by! On the other hand, maybe you got a bit too close to something and are about to take a spin in the racks yourself. Hopefully someone will come help you.

5. [Setting: Floor Thirty-Three] There's farmland on this floating island, and anything you can grow yourself is bound to be more reliable quality-wise than the cafeteria food. Of course, the recent odd storms have made a mess of this floor. Get to cleaning it up and then get to growing something!

6. [Setting: Floor Two] It's time for your first collar checkup! Go wait in the waiting room for your turn--maybe strike up a conversation and find out what this is all about! Or try to fight the worker units when they call for you, not that fighting them ever ends well.

7. [Setting: Anywhere] Whoops, you've gotten distracted, or lost, or you're still climbing up the stairs when night falls. It's time for the monsters to start prowling--and one's got its eyes (or whatever sensory organs it may have) on you! Time to fight back, or time to run?

[And there "He" was. The end of his trail, the origin of the sensation, the pulsating star of evil to which he had been lead. But something was not quite right. Though he turned and faced the powerful looking man, or what he assumed was a human, he could not help but feel as though that things were not stacking up properly.

His brow became moist with sweat, the malevolance was enough to cause him to cower in obediance. This was not his Master, but the feeling was certainly enough to make him think so. What had happened to him?? How did this stranger know his name? He certainly shared qualities with Lord Demise, beyond what mortal eyes could see.

Fear was his leash, and it caused him to drop to his knees. Gritting his teeth and clutching the side of his head, he lowered his eyes to his host and spoke.]

Y-You.. You cannot be- How is it that you 'feel' like him?! You, who are encased in flesh! How is is that you walk and move like the other foolish puppets here? Where is my Lord Demise? Why is it you possess such an aura?

[He did not want to speak so openly, for it was not in him to do so in the presence of his Master. His eyes winced in pain, expecting his punishment for having such a sharp tounge.]

[ Ganondorf couldn't help but chuckle. It was very satisfying-- The first time he had met with Ghirahim in this tower, Ghirahim had been the one who had spent months in this tower and who had had to explain everything to him. Now however, the situation was reversed, and needless to say the King of Evil enjoyed this very much.

However Ganondorf showed no sign of wishing to punish Ghirahim, quite at the contrary waving his hand for him to stand up. ]

Rise.

[ He paused. ]

Your Lord Demise stands before you. [True in a sense, untrue in that Ganondorf was his reincarnation, but details.] But before this may make sense to you, you need to understand the inner working of this world. This tower exists beyond the confines of space and time as you know them. I come from what you call the future, and you come from what I call the past.

[ The story about how the tower took people from different time periods or different worlds was always the hardest to understand, but thankfully people some of those originating from Hyrule had experience in such concepts, like Ganondorf. ]

[He can only look upon the man with a luck of utter befuddlement. What claims and slander! There is no way that Demise could be confided to such a shell! And yet.. And yet the resemblences were there.

Heeding Ganondorf's command, though with a bit of reluctance, Ghirahim stands at full attention. Bringing an arm to his waist, he bowed his head in greeting, though he did still feel some manner of reserve. Time travel wasn't something that was improbable or impossible. He had done it himself, so there was no reason to argue or question.

Demise, now a mortal? This was the thought which kept his obedience from being absolute. Having experienced and known the power of his Master, this news was very difficult to swallow.]

I.. Please forgive me. I find it hard to believe that my Master walks amongst the mortal world as a man. May I ask what has brought the powerful Lord Demise to such a sad state?
