Lost in an Update

Hi, I'm ausome and I would like to share with you a REAL experience I had. I'm a Terraria mobile player, and about 1 or 2 years ago, I was playing the game, and then it just crashed. [Me: It's alright. I'll just go back into the game.] When I pressed play, it said "Player ausome was saved on a later version of the game and cannot be loaded. Please update Terraria." (Something like that, I don't know exactly what it said.) I was very angry, and I realized this problem was happening to a lot of people. I quit the game for a couple of months. But then, I decided to get back into the game, and a month into playing again, I had molten armor, a night's edge, and was ready for the wall of flesh. I went down my hellevator, and then, when I dropped the Guide Voodoo Doll in the lava, my game crashed again. I went back into the game, and my character was still there. But... the character was different--way different. His skin was fully white, and his eyes were red. I was very confused, but I still decided to load the character, and go in my world. The character's hotbar was filled with angel statues, and I checked the inventory, and my WHOLE INVENTORY was angel statues, and I checked my profile, and my character in the profile section was back to normal, but it was missing a leg, and missing their arm. They even had one eye! And... all my accessories, armor, and vanity were angel statues too! When I exitted the inventory, it said "Guide has been slain..." and then my game instantly crashed again. When I pressed play, it said that my player was created on a later version of the game again! I had never touched the game again until I got a new phone, and I still wonder why Terraria works fine on my new phone, but not the old tablet. To this day, I still remember, the angel statues haunting my old character. But... now, something.. wierd happened. I made a new world (on the new phone after playing it on the phone for about 3 months) to start the game over again to get the clean slate feeling. But, unlike normal, the Guide that you start with was normal....-ish. The Guide shot Hellfire Arrows instead of Wooden ones. I saw it, but I didn't really think of it as a bad thing, it was kind of a blessing. Or so I thought. Those Hellfire arrows would 1 shot anything, and the corpses of the enemies it kills don't despawn. Once, I forgot a crafting recipe, so I talked with the Guide. But, the Guide said "Kill... Kill... Kill..." in his message box, and the options for it were, "What are you doing!?", "Are you crazy!?", or "Who are you?". When I clicked Who are you, the Guide said, "The Guide from 1.3." and I realized; 1.3 wasn't out for mobile yet, it's still 1.2! This got me thinking, also really scared. What if the Guide I killed was responsible for the death of my second character. I then saw the Guide's eyes turn red, and he pulled out what looked like a Palladium Chainsaw, and started charging towards me! It was super odd, as the world wasn't in Hardmode yet, so how could he have had Palladium? When he got too close to me, I quickly left the world, and then I went back on it, with my other character from before, that had the Terra Blade, and Fishron Wings, with even a Flairon. The Guide was normal. I talked to him, and he instantly died, and the wall of flesh had awoken! But.. the wall had 666666666 HP, so there was no way to defeat it without a hacked client! I pulled out the mega shark and started firing a load of chlorophite bullets at the middle mouth. Right when I did 1000 damage, the game crashed, and ALL my characters had the corruption error... and there was a character called Guide, that was a Guide, with red eyes. When I clicked on the character, and proceeded to the worlds section, it said all my worlds were created on a later version of the game too. I made a new world, and the Guide had a full inventory of Guide Voodoo dolls, and a Palladium Chainsaw that did 666666 damage. That could be the way to defeat that wall next time! When the original Guide got killed by a Zombie, I was teleported to hell, and I encountered the cursed wall again. I went at the wall with the Palladium Chainsaw, and it was defeated. It said that the spirits of old beings were resurrected, and I instantly died. My game crashed, and all my characters were back; including the old ones!

## Details

This is partly a real story. The fake parts were about my character being different, and the terrarian joining the game, but I KID YOU NOT, the angel statues taking over my inventory and my characters being lost in an update is real. As I said, this story took place a year or two ago, so terraria mobile was just 1.2, and not the new 1.3 update. Thank you for reading my story and the details on it. Also, the whole story after the words "But then" was all a fantasy, and didn't happen. Give you nightmares already? Sorry, but a new chapter will be released soon. Thanks for playing.
