AWP-1-009 - UNKNOWN GATEHOUSE

Gatekeeper

Thanks so much. I didn’t want to leave my post but I also really didn’t want to miss the big Solitaire tournament.

You

[MANAGER] Alright, let’s get back to the reason I called this meeting.
[VIEWER] Can I watch?
[AMBASSADOR] Ah, will you open the gate for me?
[DEFAULT] Not baccarat?

Gatekeeper

What’s baccarat?

You

[AMBASSADOR] Never mind, could you open the gate for me?
[AMBASSADOR] Allow me to tell you the rules!
[DECEIVER] It’s a game where you ride giant rats. It’s popular where I’m from.
[DEFAULT] Oh, um, so what about the gate thing?

Gatekeeper

Oh the real gate broke a long time ago, it’s just some ropes now.

You

[PUNCHER] I am going to kick your whatever they are allowed to call them here.
[MANAGER] It looks like there’s a bit of a disconnect, if I may summarize.
[AMBASSADOR] So I didn’t need the lever after all?
[DEFAULT] Okay!

Gatekeeper

You wanted to pass the gate right? You can just go.

You

[MANAGER] I don’t want to assign blame here, but something needs to be done to overcome this challenge.
[AMBASSADOR] So I never needed the lever at all?
[DEFAULT] Ah.

Gatekeeper

No, but I needed it.
See, the real gate broke a long time ago. Nobody wants to go this way anyway so we never budgeted to fix it. I just repurposed the machinery for my television.

You

[DECEIVER] Aha! I’m a secret traveler sent by the gatehouse.. main.. place. To make sure the gatekeepers are keeping the gates properly! This is going in my report!
[AMBASSADOR] Ah, I guess I misunderstood. Good bye.
[DEFAULT] Whatever, I’ll just go.
