Dialogue

Skip Stones
NPC

Ah, a fellow traveler of the mind! Quick question: Do you trust your own shadow? Because I don't!

NPC

Hey! You! You ever wonder why the moon doesn't spin? Think about it.

NPC

Psst. You got a moment? I have classified information about the real reason birds sing in the morning.

NPC

Finally! Someone who hasn't been replaced by a lizard clone... or have you?

Skip Stones
NPC

Finally, someone who doesn't think I'm a loon. Thank you!

NPC

Nephew of the legendary Alexander Stones! The man who exposed the frog agenda! And now, I carry on his work... kinda.

NPC

Of course. You've helped my uncle before? I've heard stories of adventurers like you.

NPC

Yes! Please, help me. I'm not crazy.

NPC

Reporter of the unknown, knower of secrets, and professional teller of things that may or may not be true.

NPC

I don't need help... lizard scaled alien!

NPC

I don't have anything that requires assistance at the moment. But, I know there will be...

NPC

You're one of them, aren't you? No, I'll take my chances.

NPC

There is something going on here... something otherworldly. The matrix is cracking, and new lines of code are being added. Am I even real? Or did some writer just make up lines for me?

NPC

The island of the prison. A mysterious place that suddenly had a portal open. Why here? Why now?

NPC

Yet, when I start connecting the dots, I'M THE CRAZY ONE.

NPC

It's littered with overpowered artifacts, gold and creatures straight from Hell.

NPC

They said the same thing about my uncle, and now about me!

NPC

Listen... listen... listen to me right now. There's way too many strange things happening for this not to be a conspiracy... Or as I like to call it... THE TRUTH!

NPC

You may think I'm just some guy on an island, but let me ask you... why was I sent here? Who benefits? Follow the breadcrumbs!

NPC

Some say I'm mad. I say the world's mad, and I'm just the only one wearing proper goggles to see it!

NPC

I'm Skip Stones, truth seeker, free thinker, and definitely not a government experiment that escaped a lab.

NPC

Even you have to admit this is strange! I feel like I'm taking crazy pills!

NPC

Surely that's not the only thing going on here! Prison Island, powerful creatures, the best loot around and a mysterious alibi? Obviously this doesn't add up!

NPC

Oh, I'm fantastic! Just finished connecting the dots between Prison Island's vending machines and an ancient mind-control plot!
