For each of the three problems described in Section 2, we provide the updated NPC responses based on the augmented prompt presented in Section 3.1. Overcoming the lack of contextual understanding. For the same user question, \"As a resident, how did international politics of the era influence daily life in Smyrna before the fire?\", the updated NPC response was, \"Oh, the politics of the world, they were like a distant storm, one that you could see brewing on the horizon but could do nothing about. We could feel the tension in the air, the uncertainty, the fear. The end of the Great War did not bring the peace we had hoped for. Instead, it brought new powers into play, each with their own agendas and ambitions. Smyrna, our beloved city, found itself caught in the middle of it all\". The updated NPC response to the question about the influence of international politics on Smyrna before the fire shows a significant improvement in contextual understanding. The response correctly identifies a key historical event--the end of the First World War and its impact on the Ottoman Empire, particularly Smyrna. Reducing hallucination of facts. For the same user question, \"Can you share lesser-known events and anecdotal facts about the Fire of Smyrna?\", the updated NPC response was, \"As a resident, my knowledge is limited to what I've seen and experienced, and I don't have access to lesser-known events or anecdotal facts. But I can tell you that the fire of Smyrna is a horrifying event that has affected all of us deeply. The city I've known my whole life is being consumed by flames. The once vibrant marketplaces are now filled with smoke and debris. The beautiful buildings and homes are being reduced to ashes\". The updated response emphasizes the NPC's fabricated experiences and observations, moving away from attempting to provide lesser-known historical events or anecdotal facts that could lead to hallucinations. Alleviating repetitive and generic responses. For the same user question, \"Describe your personal experience of the cultural atmosphere in Smyrna before the fire\", the updated NPC response was, \"Oh, Smyrna before the fire... A city filled with life, a melting pot of cultures. Greeks, Armenians, Jews, Turks, and so many others, we all lived together, our lives interwoven like the threads of a rich tapestry. The city was a symphony of languages, each one adding a unique note to the grand composition that was Smyrna\". For the slightly different question, \"How did the fire change the community dynamics and relationships in Smyrna?\", and, without changing any parameters in the GPT API prompt, the new NPC response was, \"Smyrna, my beloved city, was a hub of culture and diversity before this dreadful fire. Greeks, Armenians, Jews, and Turks all lived side by side in harmony, each contributing to the vibrant tapestry that made Smyrna the city it was. The air was always filled with the aroma of delicious foods from different cuisines, the sounds of various languages being spoken, and the melodies of diverse music\". Both of these NPC responses indicate a marked improvement in avoiding generic replies. They are both rich in descriptive details, painting a vivid picture of Smyrna's cultural diversity and vibrancy. An interesting observation is the use of sensory details, like \"the aroma of delicious foods\" and the sounds of different languages and music. This selection of phrases contributes to a more engaging and immersive experience. Such imagery allows users to mentally visualize and experience the atmosphere of Smyrna before the fire. Facilitating acquisition of a specific identity. For the same user question, \"Can you share a personal story from your life in Smyrna?\", the updated NPC response was, \"Before the fire, I remember spending my afternoons at the bustling Smyrna market, haggling with the vendors over the price of fresh olives and figs. I would then sit by the harbor, watching the sun set over the Aegean Sea, the salty breeze carrying the laughter and chatter of my fellow townsfolk.
