;(Upon entering the Simulated Universe)
:(Trailblazer): (Herta's so-called upgrades... seem to make no difference at all?)
----
;(After the first battle, an Occurrence appears)
: Fuli: The strange thing happened again. A chill creeps up your spine, mist clouds your eyes, and you see the familiar vision appearing again.
:Fuli: This time, THEY are even closer – you can feel THEIR presence and power. , appears again. THEY float in mid-air, bowing THEIR head from above. Are THEY looking at you? But you are not sure which section is THEIR eyes.
:Fuli: You tell yourself to stay sober and complete the mission: Speak to THEM.
: What a coincidence! We meet again.
: How did you manage to control my mind?
:Fuli: THEY respond to you after hearing what you say. You feel the chill on your face, and the hairs on your skin shudder.
:Fuli: Then THEY draw away and disappear in an instant. You feel relieved.
:Herta: You hear Herta's voice at just the right time. "You met Fuli again. Well done. Previous testers never even got a response from Fuli." Sounds like she has settled down from her excitement, and her voice has returned to the usual emotionless and mechanical register.
: You are still watching me?
:Herta: "Yup, sure am. Just treat it as the perk of being a rookie. Once you're familiar with the Simulated Universe, I won't bother you too much. There's so much to get done, so just play around by yourself."
: Just what did you upgrade?
:Herta: "What do you think an upgrade is? The next version of a video game? Some tiny rewards handed out every one-and-half-months?" Herta snorts. "This is a whole micro-universe! If you could see all the changes at a glance, why would we spend all the time training a universe? I can just build a garden for your Express instead!"
:Herta: Herta sighs. "There's a just a little further ahead. Remember to use it to expand your team. Your brain is gradually adapting to the Simulated Universe, and the available RAM will gradually become accessible for you so you can play with more people. Alright, snap out of it. Go and choose your Blessing."

;(While selecting a Blessing, interactive tutorial)
::Herta: The Blessing of is manifested in Ice, which will enhance Freeze effects and buffs.
----
;(Approach a destructible object)
:Herta: Stephen added something to the stage. He said ransacking and smashing things are two essential experiences in games.
===Use the downloader===
;(After the second battle)
:Herta: That's the download terminal. Go give it a try.
;(Use the Downloader, interactive tutorial)
::Herta: Look. On the left are the virtual friends in your brain, and on the right are the friends that have been downloaded into the system's RAM.
::Herta: Bring me along to form a four-person team, which will use the Blessing of up to its fullest potential.
===Explore the Simulated Universe===
;(Progress through the zones)
===Head to the next zone===
;(After the fourth battle)
:Herta: To extend the session, the system created a concept of "domains." Go through the teleporter into the next zone.
===Explore the Simulated Universe===
;(After entering the next domain, interactive tutorial)
::Open the map.
::Herta: Here is a map for you. In the first tab, you will find your route progress records.
::Herta: The second tab records the Blessings you have obtained.
::Herta: View 
::Herta: Is this little feature useful?
----
;(After the first battle in the second domain, an Occurrence appears)
:Simulated Universe: Enemies are falling, and you can't contain your excitement. You are a genius, you are sure of it. Your concentration starts to crumble, you love the shaking of every leaf, you enjoy the destructive power of endless thoughts, until you realize that something is wrong with you — this is not you.
:Herta: 
: Aha: "Akivili, Akivili!" A voice laughed wildly, "It has been so long, I miss you greatly!" Your hairs stand on end. This is the infectious enthusiasm of a madman.
:Aha: THEY appear before you: Without a head and a mask in THEIR arms. THEY waved THEIR hand at you, still spinning in circles, THEIR arms hanging in mid-air, THEIR muscles controlling THEIR trembling knuckles, and THEIR posture like that of a sculpture.
:Aha: "I am so sad." THEY suddenly became sorrowful, "Why did you die?" THEY whimpered in pain, as tears ran down the back of your hand. You felt like you really had died.
:Aha: "You have fallen too long and the universe has lost its order." THEY began to clap THEIR hands, "Then everything started to turn to chaos! This is what I want! I want to hug you, . Oh, that seems kinda cool." THEY scratched THEIR head.
:Herta: "This punk has figured it out again. I have to get Screwllum to edit THEIR data once more..."
:Aha: "I have to apologize to you, really. I lay in ambush aboard your train for a whole year just to blow it up with your Nameless followers. I couldn't resist, I'm sorry." THEY put THEIR hand to the chest guiltily and bowed solemnly.
:Herta: "This disgrace is still pretending. THEY've already figured out you're not Akivili."
:Aha: "You're Akivili — you're alive and well, what an interesting opponent! Please play with me more, that's what I want... Grow up and defeat me!" THEY kick the ground with a stomp and fade away... You gasp for air as you escape from the torment.
:Herta: "Aha, the Aeon of Elation." Herta explained uncharitably, "A very elusive one who probably found THEMSELF living in a game. This fella is very noisy and dangerous. Next time, bite your tongue and talk to THEM more, thanks for your hard work."

;(While selecting a Blessing, interactive tutorial)
::Herta: The Blessings of loves to throw surprises, which can be suitable for characters that do follow-up attacks.
===Head to the next zone===
;(Go through the teleporter)
===Defeat the boss===
;(After defeating the Boss, an Occurrence appears)
:Herta: "Great job. That's it for today. I've chatted with a few of my collaborators, and we've decided to re-double our efforts. Next time you come back, you'll enjoy our official version of Simulated Universe."
: When did you chat with them?
:Herta: "While you were testing." Herta replies. "We have methods of communication far more powerful than those possessed by the IPC or the Intelligentsia Guild. As far as people with our IQ are concerned, this communication is highly efficient."
: What tricks are you trying to pull this time?
:Herta: "Pretty much a complete overhaul of an upgrade," Herta replies. "Screwllum and Ruan Mei didn't think much about it, but Stephen is thrilled to pieces. I bet he thinks we're really developing a game here."
:Herta: "Stephen Lloyd has come up with a bunch of different ideas for making the Simulated Universe more fun. It won't help us attract more Aeons, but it might just help you have more fun." Herta sighs.
----
;(After returning to Herta's Office)
:Herta: The Simulated Universe will be closed for a while. We want to give the whole thing a big overhaul, and think about what to do with Aha. Next time you will play the official version of the Simulated Universe, the test version will be abandoned.
: What a shame! I was just getting addicted.
::Herta: According to Stephen, you'll be even more addicted in future versions, believe it or not.
::Herta: That guy's enthusiasm is just unreal...
: It's okay. I'm not interested either.
::Herta: Thanks for your honesty.
::Herta: You'll be able to re-enter the Simulated Universe soon. The update has quite a lot of changes.
: What is up with Aha?
::Herta: Elation is a very strange Aeon. THEY are both confused and clear-minded, and not as stubborn as the other Aeons. Aha won't stay confined to a single concept. THEY may have seen right through the nature of the Simulated Universe.
:Herta: You can go. I'll message you when I'm ready.
: Hang on. I still have questions.
::Herta: Yes?
:: Are the Aeons in there really simulations?
:::Herta: Ha, do you find THEM awe-inspiring, too? A virtual Aeon is not the same as any old AI. Ruan Mei and I came up with a way to connect virtual Aeons with THEIR real Paths.
:::Herta: Aeons in the Simulated Universe are the equivalent of a terminal, and THEIR divinity and wisdom come from the real Aeon. Otherwise, what would be the value in any information we get?
:: Have you decided on what to do with Aha?
:::Herta: I have a basic consensus with Screwllum. First, he'll try reducing the partiality values of the simulated Aha, even going as far as blocking THEIR Intra-Cognition — but that's a little dangerous and may attract the real Elation...
:::Herta: If we feel that method is unfeasible, then we'll probably leave this Aha to play however THEY like, while isolating THEM from communicating with the other simulated Aeons.
:: Who's this Stephen you keep going on about?
:::Herta: Oh, he's our fourth partner, member #84, Stephen "Weirdo" Lloyd. That guy's a genius with no interest in using his abilities, and spends two-thirds of his time in his adoptive father's fruit shop.
:::Herta: He can't even get himself excited about something as cool as the Simulated Universe. Stephen did us a favor and asked to remain anonymous — he doesn't want to make a big splash at all. Perhaps some geniuses wish they weren't one.
:: Forget it, it's nothing.
: You better beg me to come back next time.
::Herta: If I have to, then I will.
: Alright. Goodbye, Herta.
:Herta: By the way, there is a Simulated Universe Index over there, you can check it out if you have nothing else to do. But if you're not interested then forget it.
:Herta: Is it not human nature to collect?
===Use the Index===
;(Use the Index, interactive tutorial)
::Herta: Look! Information about Blessings, Curios, and Aeons in the Simulated Universe are collected in the index.
::Herta: Index of Aeons has some top-secret info I procured.
::Herta: Index of Blessings allows you to check the Blessings you've already obtained.
::Herta: As for the Index of Curios, just continue to explore the later worlds. It might just suddenly unlock for you.
