Why?

[beaconkeeper]

Why do you think? You of all people know it's super hard to get out here...

The Lighthouse Keeper before me went totally nuts and was gonna reset the whole place and then kill himself, so most of us that were left decided to storm the lighthouse. If he didn't want to do the job anymore, fine, but don't take us down with you, y'know?

What we didn't know is that once a reset starts, you can't stop it. :/ Knowing what I know now, I could've edited the code to spare the people that were left, but I didn't know that was possible back then.

Soooo everyone died, except me.

[evulsed]

Nobody but you left to take over that lonely job.

Haven't you ever wondered what the point is?

You could just let this place die. Nobody would miss it.

[beaconkeeper]

I mean... you're probably right? But that's the part that would suck, I think. The fact that none of us would be remembered and all of this would've been for nothing.

I know that's a possibility for our future anyway, like, if the World Eaters get us b/c we can't find a way to stop them... buuuut if it's gonna happen, I want to be able to say we tried really hard, you know?

I could totally let this place die. That's what the last Keeper was trying to do. I just don't wanna.

[evulsed]

You sound like someone else I know.

[ And it makes his heart ache. ]

Good luck, I guess.

:/ Thanks... You too, with whatever your deal is, I guess.
