Transcript from "ever 17, the out of infinity", by the same author of the zero escape games. Some of you knows how much I loved 999 and Virtue's Last Reward and how they touched on the morphogenetic field. Well Ever-17 is an older visual novel written by the same trippy author and I'm just beginning to get into the meat of the story. Before I begin with some interesting transcripts here's a brief synopsis of the idea of the story.
Ever17 is the tale of seven individuals who come to be trapped 153 feet within the underwater marine theme park, LeMU. During an apparently normal day at the park, a massive accident happens, placing almost half of the facility underwater. The path to the surface and the communication lines are cut off. In addition, LeMU is under constant assault by severe water pressure, limiting time to find a means of escape to 119 hours. Escape is not the only concern, however; many questions arise as to the legitimacy of the accident and whether or not those trapped there were brought there for a purpose.
You: That would have to be the work of a God like Shiva
Kid: Shiva?
You: The God of destruction and creation. One of the main three Hindu gods. He has more than a thousand names, four arms, four faces and three eyes. He destroys the world for the purposes of creation...The destruction is so thorough that it contained the seeds or possibility of the next generation.
[...]
So if Lemuria had pissed off a god enough to sink it into the ocean, then that god would probably have demolished it.
Kid: Oh, I see.
(A god that would purge the world of filth by destroying it...)
(A god that damned people drunk with pride, and forced rebirth...)
[...]
(When You pointed a flashlight near me, I saw three bolts in the shape of a triangle)
Kid: Did you say that Shiva has three eyes?
You: Yup.
Kid: That means...(I put the wrench between my eyebrows) He'd have another eye right here, right?
You: That's right. The light from that third eye burns all the world, purifying it. [...] But the idea of a third eye is not limited to Shiva. It also exists in the world of Buddhism and Yoga. Clairvoyance, telescopic vision, ghost senses, the gift of the prophet, the power of seeing the past or future...There are a lot of explanations behind it. Some say it is a gift from the gods, others that you can acquire it from intensive training. But what they all have in common is...
When the third eye opens, true wisdom is apparent and all becomes visible. They all have something to do with transcending the realm of the human...becoming superhuman somehow
