G 0 START 1 input 0->1 36 Variable["doomed.bookstore_famous_hub_reached"] 1->36 2 Plaisance: "A very influential historical figure, but surely I don't have to tell you that." She waves her hand, as if casting aside the thought. "You're a law officer and law officers have at least *some* education." 19 Plaisance: "The book is also very daring. The author aims to re-examine the universal understandings of the innocentic system, creating a fresh vantage point and a shift in the tired order of things." 2->19 3 Shelf of Biographies: "High Speed Love" chronicles the romance between two of the finest TipTop TournĂ©e racers in history. One of them is the madcap driver Jacob Irw. His blond mane graces the cover. 4 Shelf of Biographies: Next to Irw's life story, you see a slim biography of an Occidental rock star called "The Antistar". He's famous for shooting morphine into one of his eyeballs, and cocaine into the other! 3->4 7 Shelf of Biographies: Next to that, Revacholian radio-personality Guillaume Bevy stands in front of a run down drug den. He's a permanent fixture on Channel 8, reporting on real life crime and ruining cops' days... 4->7 5 Shelf of Biographies: The plaque on the shelf reads: "Biographies of Famous People." You see a large variety of names, none of which ring a bell. 26 Composure: You will attain a place on this shelf one day... or *die trying*! 5->26 6 Shelf of Biographies: Browsing through all the books with all their names makes your head spin. None of these seem important or relevant. It's all just vapid egoism! 41 Shelf of Biographies: Suddenly, a particularly odd title catches your eye. It reads: "High Speed Love: the Tragic True Love Story of Jacob Irw and Alfie Deletraz" by one Cecilia Averbrook. 6->41 10 Plaisance: "I really *must* insist you buy one of the books." You're interrupted by the shopkeep. "Reading them is not for free. Do still browse though. But not too *long*." 7->10 8 biohub 20 You: [Leave.] 8->20 21 You: "I'm interested in that 'Greatest Innocence' book." 8->21 22 You: "Storekeep, anything of note in this shelf?" 8->22 28 You: Look through the display of books. 8->28 9 Jump to: [biohub] 9->8 25 Suggestion: She understands she has erred against the customer and immediately corrects course. 10->25 11 You: "Who or what is an innocence?" 11->2 12 Plaisance: "I would say..." The woman hums to herself. "'The Greatest Innocence.' Yes, most certainly. It's an important educational tool, delving into the depths of history, religion, and their relation to *innocentic power*." 12->11 29 You: "Great. I don't need to know any more." 12->29 13 Variable["tc.turn_off_tutorial_node"]  or  Variable["character.interactable_tutorial_seen"] 14 Variable["tc.turn_off_tutorial_node"]  or  Variable["character.interactable_tutorial_seen"] 13->14 15 !(Variable["tc.turn_off_tutorial_node"]  or  Variable["character.interactable_tutorial_seen"]) 13->15 14->9 16 Tutorial Agent: You've acquired an interactable item. Investigate this item further by going to the INTERACT tab in your INVENTORY. 15->16 16->9 17 Plaisance: "Perhaps for a layman!" She scoffs. "Deep analysis is necessary to peel back the multi-layered meanings." 31 Conceptualization: Do her words seem vague and abstract to you? 17->31 18 You: What's it about? 18->3 19->29 30 You: "I thought it was about which of these... innocences... is the coolest and greatest?" 19->30 40 You: "So you recommend it?" 19->40 23 Plaisance: "A true cultural touchstone." She nods. "Enjoy the read." 21->23 22->12 23->13 24 Jump to: [biohub] 24->8 34 Plaisance: "I'm sorry, I did not mean to rush you. You *are* browsing. Go ahead. Take your time. Time is commerce." 25->34 26->8 27 Shelf of Biographies: Shelves full of biographies of *famous people*, whoever they are. 27->8 28->6 32 Jump to: [Shelf of Biographies: "Shelves full of biographies of *fam..."] 29->32 30->17 31->40 32->27 33 Jump to: [biohub] 33->8 34->33 35 Plaisance: "Certainly. It's prudent for a person to have at least an elementary understanding of history and society. Imagine the chaos we'd be in otherwise." 39 Inland Empire: You feel like you should get this one. Definitely. It's *important* somehow. There is something personal inside... 35->39 37 Variable["doomed.bookstore_famous_hub_reached"] 36->37 38 !(Variable["doomed.bookstore_famous_hub_reached"]) 36->38 37->27 38->5 39->24 40->35 41->18
