## Biography

### Prologue

At 8:00 am, an alarm clock rings. Blite, as Blayk's identity, fall onto the floor from their bed, surprised that they are tired despite going to bed early. Dismissing this as a sign of getting older, they dress into their overalls and commute to work at their flower shop, Griswell Greens.

On the way to work, Blite can visit their neighbor, Kreffer, and the townspeople. When they meet Qrystal at a fast food restaurant called Jendyburger's, they learn that she was friends with their sister, Zyra, from high school. Blayk shares his experience when she describes her unhappiness with her debt and occupation, stating that he was also hopeless and weighed down by the mistakes of his past when he was her age. He reassures her that these problems disappear over time which makes her feel a little better. Blite can also visit Pluto, the owner of Mace Hardware, a hardware store. When Pluto asks about the flower business, Blayk admits it is not doing well and asks whether people still like flowers. Pluto assures him that he still does, especially orchids, which were his wife's favorites. After Blayk offers his sympathy to Pluto regarding his late wife, he heads to his shop.

Blite then begin work at Griswell Greens and assist three customers. When they close shop for the night, a man barges in and demands money for the peaceweed deals from the previous month. Blayk is confused by the situation and tries to call the police, GPD, after getting hit in the face. Before he can do so, he freezes as his other identity takes over. Nite pulls down the straps of Blite's overalls and confronts the man, whom he recognizes as Jasun. He acknowledges the deals but refuses to hand over the money. Nite then demands Jasun to leave town, threatening that he knows where his parents live and would harm them as well. This provokes Jasun into attacking Nite, who severely beats him up and throws him through the shop's front window. Blayk then takes control by donning his overalls straps once again and steps outside the shop. When a nearby officer, Arial, questions what happened, Blayk rushes toward her and tells a cover story that Jasun tried to rob his shop and jumped through the window to escape. Arial assures him that GPD will deal with this situation and tells him to return home.

Blite can find Qrystal at the beach if the player spoke to her earlier. Blayk declines her offer of a cigarette, revealing that he quit smoking years ago. He then invites her to travel to a city called Charcoal, possibly with Zyra. When Qrystal questions whether he is asking her out, Blayk insists that he is not actively looking for a relationship at the moment and suggests they go as friends. Qrystal states they are not friends to his disappointment but considers his offer. When they part ways, Blayk warns her about Flymnas at night and calls her a friend.

After returning home, Blite immediately head to the bathroom where Blayk faces Nite, who is shown in the mirror's reflection. Blayk questions where Nite has been for the past two months, to which the other answers that they were simply quiet the whole time. Angered by the earlier incident, Blayk scolds Nite about the drug deals while Nite points out that with the flower business struggling, he tried to "help" while he can. When Blayk realizes that Nite performed deals in the middle of the night while he was dormant, he demands to know where his stash is hidden. Nite refuses to reveal its location and promises to cut down on his shady activity. After Blayk is relieved, Nite asks about Zyra. Blayk answers that she went to her friend's apartment to study for finals and should return tomorrow. Nite warns him that he has a feeling that something will happen the next day, which Blayk dismisses and states that he will keep an eye on Nite to his resentment. Nite then suggests that they head off to bed and Blayk agrees.

### Trowel Through the Heart

The next day, Blite head to Griswell once again. There, they witness a red meteor crash onto Mount Silver. Nite tells Blayk that the meteor must be related to his feeling from yesterday, which Blayk initially dismisses as a coincidence. Despite Blayk's reluctance, Nite manages to convince him to check it out together. Having collected Silver Daffodils from Mount Silver, Blayk insists to Nite that he already knows how to reach Mount Silver via the cave.

After climbing Mount Silver for a while, Blite find several Ahoki slain near some bushes which are turned red. Blayk recoils at the stench and becomes horrified with the situation while Nite points out that the bushes are similar to some of the trees they saw earlier. Blite soon confront the red figure, who was lurking around the area earlier. Before Blayk can ask him questions, the alien pulls out a gun and shoots him.

Blayk wakes up in a strange location full of chains. He eventually finds Nite standing in front of a giant chained heart. To Blayk's lack of amusement, Nite calls the area their "Soul Chamber" and jokes that they need to destroy the chains' weakest link to release their Soul, represented by the heart. When Blayk asks Nite to help him remove the chains, the other refuses. Nite explains that he is resentful since Blayk and Zyra have kept him hidden away. While Blayk argues that Nite almost killed someone yesterday, Nite insists that he is a person with rights despite his violent and bloodthirsty nature. He demands Blayk understand this and treat him as an equal. Blayk promises to do so as long as Nite realizes that they will both be held responsible for his actions. Nite acknowledges this and they remove the chains together. Blayk acquires the Chainsoul item which allows him to freeze things with Pausa.

Blayk later encounters Nite again, who has witnessed him using the new skill. Nite confronts Blayk about his intention with keeping the skill to himself and soon realizes that Blayk does not trust him yet. Frustrated with Blayk for not keeping his promise, Nite threatens him. Blayk dismisses his threat at first by joking whether Nite would kill him, to which Nite confirms that is what he actually has in mind. When Blayk insists that doing so will only kill both of them, Nite argues that since their souls, not physical manifestations, are present in the Soul Chamber, he can eliminate Blayk's soul and reclaim Blite's body for himself. With no other options in mind, Blayk reluctantly fights Nite and defeats him. He then leaves the Soul Chamber and returns to his body on Mount Silver.

#### Soul Chamber Skip

It is possible to cross the long bridge in the Soul Chamber and confront Nite without acquiring the Pausa skill. If Blayk does this, an alternative scene plays. **TODO:** Summarize SC skip dialogue.

Blite faces the figure again after discovering a damaged red spaceship. When the figure retreats, Blayk becomes frustrated after realizing he cannot reach him. Nite, who has also rejoined Blite's body, offers his assistance by arguing that he has been working out and is fast enough to catch up. When Blayk refuses him control at first, Nite requests for Blayk's trust. He reveals that after Blayk defeated him, he has realized that trust should be earned instead of bought or stolen. After considering this, Blayk agrees to give Nite control for a while. Nite becomes satisfied and rushes off in pursuit. With his significantly faster speed, Nite corners the figure at the top of Mount Silver. When he draws his gun again, Nite demands answers to his various questions, including about Blite's newfound powers. When the figure offers only one answer, Nite asks for his name, which is revealed to be Marmot. Nite prepares for battle in response to Marmot's threat to execute him.

After Nite defeats Marmot, he relishes in his opponent's pleas and draws his trowel to end it all. Blayk, however, stops Nite and reclaims control to question Marmot. Blayk deduces that the red spaceship Blite found earlier is Marmot's and was already damaged before it landed. He reveals that he read about its extremely durable material, Nokium, from an article. This impresses Marmot but not enough to reveal further information. When the alien drops his gun, Nite urges Blayk to grab it first. Blayk successfully retrieves the gun and points it at Marmot. Nite insists on shooting Marmot while Blayk hesitates and argues that their questions should be answered. When Marmot asks who Blayk is talking to, the latter tells him to mind his own business. Choosing to spare Marmot causes Nite pulls the trigger for Blayk while choosing to kill Marmot causes Blayk to reluctantly pull the trigger himself. Either option results in the unaffected Marmot executing Blite. If the player lets the timer run out instead, Blite puts the gun away and offers to bring Marmot home. They also assure that Queen Diana can help fix Marmot's spaceship and invite him to Blite's house. Marmot then asks for their name, which is when they finally reveal their true name to both him and the player.
