Finally. You have awakened.
What? Where am I?
Don't you remember?
Oh, yes. Thank you.
So you know what must be done. Correct?
Yes, I do.
Good. Now, I must ask you a series of questions.
Hurry up!
Got it... Calm down! I'm hurrying up. So, the first question: Do you consider yourself to have lots of not-so-close friends or just a few close ones?
Straight to the point, aren't you? I have a few close ones, though I also have some not so close ones too so I'd just like to point out that this system is flawed.
I know but this is just a one-time thing
Oh yeah... I forgot.
And that answered my next question-
Which was?
If remembering every piece of information you hear was very important to you or of little importance compared to other necessities.
Well I believe that I remember nearly every piece of information I hear... I think? Oh, whatever. Carry on.
Next, do you act differently around your friends?
Uh... Yes. Yes, I do. Also, as a side-note, why are we rushing through this again?
Well they are currently breaking down the doors of the palace we are currently seeking refuge inside of so we need to send you on your way before they make it down here.
I'm pretty sure I can handle myself, though...
Except your in your weakened state, which means you'd be more of a liability than an asset.
Wow! Thanks for that boost of confidence!
You're welcome, my friend!
I was being sarcastic...
...
Okay, I surrender! You win! You can continue now!
Good. Finally, would you sacrifice your life for the lives of others?
Uh... I have to tell the truth, right?
Yes, you do.
Umm... I feel really bad for saying this, but I'm not sure I'd actually be able to give my life if it came down to it. I feel like I would be ruled by fear...
It's alright. At least you're being honest about it. So now the questions have finished. I assume you want to know your results, right?
Yeah, I do.
Alright, you are... Different.
Different in a good way or a bad one?
That's the thing. I'm not sure yet. But I do know you have the will to conquer adversity even in the darkest of times. You are a person with a close to perfect moral compass, but fear seems to control the way you act in the direst of situations.
Alright, alright. I have to fix that.
Later... But first, I need to know, which of the extremes would you rather, hot or cold?
Well, I kind of have a very high tolerance for heat but I still like winter more than Summer. At least I get to wear a coat. So I'm going to have to choose cold.
Got it. Now, you just have to answer one last question, then we can wrap up here.
What?
Which of these forms do you which to take?
Umm... That one, I guess.
This? Are you sure? What about this one? It leaks trash and-
Seriously? Why would I want to take the form of a bag of garbage? It literally- you know what? Nevermind. Whatever.
But could you just explain why you want this one? I mean, why walk on two legs when you can walk on four?
Because it's on fire!
But during rainstorms-
It. Turns. Into. A. Dragon.
But what about this one?
Stop trying to convince me! It's not going to work?
But I thought... Never mind.
Whatever... Well... What now?
Wait! I nearly forgot! So before you go, I'm supposed to give you this item. It'll help you with something in the future... Whenever that may be.
Wow... Thanks a lot for not knowing anything!
Was that sarcasm?
No! Yes! Whatever. Both! Just... Just ignore what I just said. What now?
To be honest, it looks like you're ready to go. I'm going to have to erase all of your memories... But you will retain a memory of this photo of your future companion. You must find him.
And all of a sudden, his mind drew a blank. Who was he talking to? Was he talking to someone? Who was he?
Without a moment more to think about his predicament, the world faded into darkness, but a single thought remained.
...
Who am I?
