Prologue

## Plot Summary

### Commute to Work

At 8:00 am, an Ahokan man (called "Overalls" in game to obscure his true name from the player) wakes up to an alarm clock ringing. He rolls out of bed and wonders why he is tired despite going to bed early. Having to go to work in an hour, he dresses up into his signature overalls and heads out to the town of Griswell.

On the way, Overalls encounters a Barble that is blocking his way and the player can choose to fight it for a tutorial battle. After defeating or evading the Barble, he finds a raven outside the house of his neighbor, Kreffer. The raven, named Saven, offers services such as saving and supplies. Overalls thanks Saven and continues his way.

#### Qrystal at Jendy’s (optional)

In Griswell, Overalls can visit Qrystal, a cashier working at a burger shop called Jendy's.  Qrystal recognizes him as the brother of her friend, Zyra, and tells him that they played in band together during high school.  Overalls is impressed that she played a clarinet, despite Qrystal's preference for a saxophone.  When Qrystal expresses her unhappiness with her debt and current occupation, Overalls empathizes with her by saying that he too had struggles when he was her age.  He reassures that these problems disappear over time, which brings her some comfort.  The conversation ends when Qrystal asks if he will order anything.

### Griswell Greens

Overalls enters his flower shop, Griswell Greens, to begin work. After selecting which flowers are best for three customers, the day ends and he closes the shop. Before he can leave, a man rushes in and demands money. When the baffled Overalls insists that he has never met the man before, the intruder hits him in the face and declares that Overalls owes him from last month. Overalls then smells peaceweed, to which the man confirms that is what his deal is about. Overalls refuses to give him any money and picks up a phone to call the town's police force, GPD. Before he can finish the call, Overalls pulls down the straps of his overalls and flops his hair down as his other identity takes control. The other identity, called "Overalls?", recognizes the man as Jasun and acknowledges the peaceweed deals. Overalls? however also refuses to hand over the money and demands Jasun to leave town, threatening that he would come after both him and his parents. The enraged Jasun retaliates and attacks Overalls?.

Jasun ends up being thrown through the store's front window, severely injured from his scuffle with Overalls?. Overalls, who has changed back to his "good" identity, steps outside. He rushes toward a nearby GPD officer, Arial, and explains that Jasun tried to escape out the window after an attempted robbery. Arial assures him that she has called for backup so he can return home. Overalls thanks her and soon ponders about something.

### Chat with Qrystal at the Beach (Optional)

If the player spoke with Qrystal during the day, Overalls can find her smoking at the beach that night. He declines her offer of a cigarette, claiming that he quit smoking years ago.  Qrystal then says that she has been inspired by their previous conversation and expresses her desire to explore outside of Griswell, where she has lived her whole life.  When Overalls invites her to visit a city called Charcoal, she asks if he is asking her out.  Overalls declines and offers to go as friends, possibly with Zyra.  Qrystal declares that they are not friends but considers his invitation.  Since it is late already, Overalls decides to return home. He tells Qrystal to be careful at night, especially of Flymnas, to which she asserts that she can take care of herself. They then part ways, with Overalls calling her a friend.

### Mirror Reflection

When Overalls returns home, he heads to the bathroom mirror to meet with his other identity shown in his reflection. He demands to know about Overalls?'s activity during past two months and scolds him about peaceweed. Overalls? explains that since their flower business is struggling, he did what he could to "help". Overalls reaches to the conclusion that the other identity performed deals in the middle of the night. Overalls? refuses to reveal his stash's location and promises to cut down on shady activities. When Overalls? asks about their younger sister, Zyra, Overalls answers that she should return from studying at her friend's apartment the next day. Overalls? then states he has a feeling something significant will happen tomorrow, to which Overalls dismisses and declares he will keep an eye on Overalls? instead. They then head to bed after the conversation.
