When something moves, they open up.” he says as he goes back out, walking across the way to another weird pattern, the wall opening up again. “The sensors are up over the doors, right there. They only open when you're within a certain distance of the door itself, otherwi-”
But as he's talking the door shuts again, cutting him off. Nervously, you step towards it, and as soon as you're in front the door opens once more. Bravely you don't flinch, seeing the orange man grinning at you.
“See? Nothin' to it.” he tells you. “Now, come on. Let's head over to the gravity chamber, and see what you've got.”
“Okay.” you reply, the three of you leaving that room behind, and entering the smoothest cave you've ever seen. The walls are all like the ones in Doctor White's room, you seeing the indentations on the walls for more of these doors. The man, Orlen, leads you to one that looks different, it opening with a far heavier sound. Then the second door opens, leading to a large, circular room with a very high ceiling. Orlen and you enter, but surprisingly Doctor White doesn't. Which you notice, turning back to him. “Doctor White?”
“Do not worry, I'm right here.” he tells you, walking over to the wall by the door, fingers tapping away at it and making the same clacking noises as before. “But I'm afraid these old bones can't handle too much gravity nowadays. So, I'll be controlling the chamber from out here.”
The door then shuts, you walking over to open it, to hear what else he's saying. But it doesn't open, you feeling panic rising. That is, until his voice somehow comes out of the wall a bit away from you.
“Do not worry, I'm right here.” he tells you, the lights in the room immediately dimming and turning more red. “Are you ready to begin?”
“R-Ready.” you answer a bit nervously, the lights near-completely fading. Everything is bathed in red, when suddenly a rush of your lord's memories rush into you. Hours upon hours, months upon months he's spent in this room, you seeing it all through his eyes. How he'd come here day after day, pushing his body to its limits over and over and over again. Then, once the flood of memories stop, you see Orlen looking down at you concerned, hand outstretched once again.
“Are you alright?” he asks, you nodding. Feeling your body fill with purpose, understanding what this room is for and what it means to your lord. Knowing what you must do, you take the offered hand, rising to your feet then turning back to Doctor White.
“Let's get started.” you say, clenching your fists. You're going to show them that you are worthy of your lord, that you're going to make him proud!
