Rayman: Wh-what is this place...? Is this one of Polokus's dreams?

?: Do not be alarmed.

Rayman: Huh? Is someone there?

?: I am a friend of your god. But I have so little time to tell you more. You must step forward now.

Rayman: Step foward?

?: Yes. Please, do so.

(Explanation on the basic controls of the game)

(A huge platform appears between Rayman's platform and the other individual's platform. Two stained glass bridges form from their respective platforms and connect to the center platform.)

?: Step foward and meet your other link.

Rayman: Link? Besides Polokus?

?: And as your link, you do not need to feel distrust for him. I promise.

(Rayman crosses the bridge to meet the new link, the two slowly approach)

? (cat): (goes tense in case Rayman tries something)

Rayman: Hey, it's okay, I won't hurt you.

? (cat): (looks curious and confused) What are you?

Rayman: Well, it's a pretty long story. It's complicated. What about you?

? (Cat): I'm known as a Lombax where I'm from.

Rayman: A Lombax?

? (Cat): Like you said before, it's complicated.

Rayman: I see. (He holds out his hand in in order for the cat to shake it) My name's Rayman, by the way.

? (Cat): (He gives Rayman a handshake) Rayman, huh? Nice to meet you. Name's Ratchet.

Rayman: Ratchet? I don't think I've ever seen you around the Glade before.

Ratchet: The Glade? I've never heard of that world before.

Rayman: Wait. You're from another planet?

Ratchet: Probably because I've never seen someone like you before. How are you able to... you know.

Rayman: That's something even I don't know. (suddenly, a barrier comes between them, knocking them both back)

?: There are times you must fight on your own.

Rayman: The voice...!

Ratchet: At least I'm not the only one hearing that voice!

(shadows start springing up)

Rayman: Nightmares? Wait, there's something different about these...

Ratchet: Nightmares? What're those?

Rayman: That takes a bit of explaining too. I'll explain everything when I get the chance. For now, we gotta take care of these guys!

Ratchet: Right! (He takes out a wrench-like weapon and prepares to fight)

(Explanation on how to fight)

(after gameplay)

Rayman: Something's not right... they're not fading away...

Ratchet: What are these things made of anyway?! Stupid bugs!

?: And there are times you must fight side by side.

(barrier falls)

Rayman: Hopefully, this levels the playing field!

(after another gameplay)

Ratchet: Still nothing...!

Rayman: I really hope I don't have to go there...!

Ratchet: "There"?

(suddenly, shadows disappear and a Twilight Thorn appears)

Ratchet: What in Polaris is that?!

Rayman: How am I supposed to know?!

Ratchet: You think we might be able to make some damage on this guy?!

Rayman: I have a feeling the chance of that's gonna be slim, but we gotta try!

Ratchet: Right! Let's do this!

(After another gameplay)

Ratchet: We did something!

Rayman: But that "something" wasn't enough!

(The Twilight Thorn slowly approches Rayman and Ratchet)

Ratchet: What're we supposed to do now?!

Rayman: No idea!

(The two slowly back away from the Twilight Thorn but end up near the edge of the platform)

?: You have been ill prepared to fight the new threats to your worlds. We will help you this one time.

(the Twilight Thorn is suddenly struck by lightning and four sword slashes appear, cutting it into pieces and making it fall apart into darkness)

?: Do not worry. There are more connections awaiting you on this new journey of yours. They will give you powers you could only imagine.

Rayman: Wait. Why are you telling us this?

Ratchet: Just who are you guys?

?: There is no time. You will learn soon enough. But now, it's time to return to the waking world.

(platform starts glowing brightly, petals come flying up, Rayman and Ratchet start fading into the light)

Rayman: Ratchet, do you think we'll see each other again?

Ratchet: You know, after what just happened right now... I have a feeling that's definitely gonna be possible.

Rayman: (He smiles) Same here. Well then, I guess I'll see you soon.

Ratchet: Yeah. See you soon.

(The two get engulfed into the light, the screen then gets engulfed in light afterwards)
