What was this, suddenly there were words in front of my face, a lot of words that I don't understand, yet somehow I knew the meaning of them, it feels weird, oh wait, it's saying something else
Why does it want to know my age? I wonder what you can do with an age
Oh, I am one day old. Doesn't help that I have no idea how long a day is but it's fine, keep your secrets box, box thing, Boxy. You know I think I'll call you boxy
So I did as it requested, and thought of the word "Status"
I looked at it and somehow understood everything I was seeing, the words meant nothing to me yet I knew exactly what they meant, very similar to when Boxy talks
I was curious about what exactly the Affinities did so I quickly said (thought) "Affinities"
Honestly, this list is pretty boring looking. just the same thing is written 3 times with just a few different words, it's also saying 10% a bunch, that doesn't seem big, or maybe it is I wouldn't know. Now that I think about it the only thing I know, is that I can't trust those weird tall fleshy creatures, the ones with the long attachments on them. I think they like enslaving people. No idea how I know this though, oh well I just have to be careful of them in the future, however, I would do that.
Alright Boxy, I'll think of these Skills just for you, hopefully, it will look less bland than the Affinities page "Skills"
There was a lot with the Skills page, there are a lot of cool-looking Skills here, don't really get what the deal with [Language] is though. I mean I understand what it means thanks to the weird innate understanding I have of all these boxes but what would be the purpose of language when Boxy just makes me know what I need to know, and the only other thing that I know of that can talk is the one from the scary memory.
As I was getting the hang of this I promptly thought of the word "Talents"
As I was reading through it I noticed 2 main things, the first thing was that all of these look just like Skills, the second was that for some reason [Reset] was at T2 and that I can't use it for 10 years. Kind of strange but I don't even know how long 10 years is, I know it's some sort of quantity of time, but just like when it came to the day from earlier I have no real reference for how long it is. I think Boxy said something about seconds earlier but I wasn't paying any attention to how long that was. I just felt a strange need to give Boxy a name at the time. Well, it's not like it matters anyway, why would I ever want to lose all my memories, seems like a bad Talent.
Hey, for this one it didn't even give me the hint on opening only seeing single Abilities at a time, I just grew attached, and then it was ripped away from me :(
"Race"
Well that explains why my stats were all 1, I wonder how long it will take for me to get more stats from my Racial Traits
I already knew exactly what these do since the boxes make me know it just by looking at them, but I'm not sure why 2 stats on there are struck out.
How do I even train, the understanding I get from the words don't tell me anything about how to do it at all, does using my Racial Trait count as training because it increases my stats? All it does is give me the feeling that it is trying hard on something, but nothing on what exactly I need to do, maybe use my [Absorption] Talent. Even more important is how do I consume things, maybe Boxy will tell me how to
I already knew that, I'm starting to think that Boxy isn't listening to me, I want to learn how to train or consume special items, not redundant stuff I didn't need to be told
Boxy keeps giving me less time between boxes which is kind of annoying, I hardly have time to look through them
I guess Boxy just wants to spite me at this point, You might as well throw all of the notifications at me then Boxy
Well dang, I guess Boxy actually was listening, Boxy just felt like being mean. All the boxes came almost instantly at each other and I had to immediately use the Logs tab to scour through the tabs that Boxy tried to make me miss
The only really important thing that I learned from that was how to use my Abilities, which made me strangely excited, and incredibly so. No idea why that's the case but I wanted to start using every spell I could. I immediately used my first useable Skill in my status, which was [Root Control]
I wasted it. It was over before I could even do anything with it. At least I know how long a second is now. Oh well I'll just use my next Skill, [Avatar]
...
Nothing happened. Oh wait, I don't have enough AE to use any Abilities anymore. Now I feel pretty disappointed and stupid. Hang on, I can still turn on my passive Abilities. this realization made me instantly forget about the mistake I made just a few seconds ago and started turning on my passive Abilities, from the top of my stats menu one at a time to feel exactly what they do. So to start with the most useless one, [Language].
Yep, I felt nothing from activating it. At least it's free. Next for [Uncover].
This time it actually did something, I could see my status screen a tiny bit more clearly, which was also completely useless. It fixes the non-existent issue of the status screen being slightly too hard to see, inside my mind. Maybe for it to be useful I have to put AE into it, but I want to save those to cast more of my Abilities and feel what it is like to use them, except [Reset], never [Reset], it seems too harsh to use even if I can get some Affinities. Now that I have tried out all the passive Skills I am going to try and use my first passive Talent [Unbreakable Soul].
Honestly, this one just made me feel better, that's all it felt like it did, but that's better than the other ones that did nothing or basically nothing.
I decided to turn on [Astral Absorption] and all this one felt like it did was make me feel better as well, just in a different way. [Unbreakable Soul] made my mind feel better and this made my body feel better, but apparently, this was supposed to make me have more AE over time which I really liked the sound of, I want to be able to at least use all my Abilities. This leaves me with just one last passive Ability, [Detection]
And out of nowhere, my empty world was filled with beautiful, blinding, colors.
Tree? or Tree!
