Dialogue

Skip Stones
NPC

Ah, a fellow traveller 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 Someone who hasn't been replaced by a lizard clone...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. Cheers!

NPC

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

NPC

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

NPC

Yes, please, give us a hand. I'm not off my rocker.

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 a hand… you lizard-scaled alien!

NPC

I don’t have anything that needs doing right now. But I’m sure there’ll be something soon…

NPC

You’re one of ’em, aren’t you? Nah, I’ll take my chances.

NPC

There’s 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 prison island. A mysterious place that had a portal appear out of nowhere. Why here? Why now?

NPC

Yet, when I start connecting the dots, I’M THE ONE WHO’S BONKERS.

NPC

It’s chockers with overpowered artefacts, gold, and creatures straight from Hell.

NPC

They said the same about my uncle, and now they say it about me!

NPC

Listen… listen… listen up. There are far too many strange things happening for this not to be a conspiracy… or as I like to call it… THE TRUTH!

NPC

You might think I’m just some bloke on an island, but let me ask you… why was I sent here? Who’s pulling the strings? Follow the breadcrumbs!

NPC

Some say I’m mad. I say the world’s mad, and I’m the only one with the right goggles to see it!

NPC

I’m Skip Stones, truth seeker, free thinker, and definitely not a government experiment that legged it from a lab.

NPC

Even you have to admit this is weird! I feel like I’m off my head!

NPC

Surely that’s not the only curious thing going on! Prison Island, powerful creatures, the best loot around, and a shady alibi? Obviously, it doesn’t line up!

NPC

Oh, I’m doing great! I’ve just finished linking the dots between Prison Island’s vending machines and an ancient mind-control plot!
