"Alright, Pull up a seat if you haven't already, this is a long one."
"Though, In short,
the inventory is your internet browser's bookmark folder."
"See, when you get an 'item', just bookmark that 'item info page' into a folder
called 'Inventory'
...something like that."
"- Or you can just use a pen and paper to keep track of your stuff, that's fine too."
"Anddd ...that's about it. Really. You can go now."
"Just don't forget to properly add your puzzle cube into your inventory!
Wouldn't want to get lost now would you?"
"And this map, too I guess. I snagged one from downstairs."
"..."
"Well, you can still scroll down and go through all the details.
...or just skip to whatever you want to know more about, too."

1» Introduction to Items
•What is an item?
"Items are things. You can put things in your inventory."
"You can use the items or interact with them as well."
•Where to find items?
"Plenty of ways to obtain an item, grab it, take it, make it, trade it, steal it
...you get the point. Item could be given to you too, of course.
If you see this passage 'add ___(item name/ID) to your inventory'
You'll know it's 'new item' time."
"Optional items will always have (optional) next to the prompt."
•How to keep items?
"When you see this prompt 'add ___(item name/ID) to your inventory'
...well, just put the thing in your inventory! Be it your browser bookmark or a notepad."
"Still
not sure how? Hold on...we can talk more about this in the Inventory section."
1a» Using items
"So many possibilities!"
"When you use an item, it could be gone forever
...or it could turn into another item, destroy another item, duplicate itself,
grow back your long-lost inner eyelids...or even delete that memory of your
childhood friend eating wet bread off the ground and many more!"
"There are many ways to use an item. There will be a prompt to tell you when
a situation
calls for an item and what you're supposed to do with them."
•When to use items?
"Some items can only be used in specific circumstances, some doesn't
care about time, places or such thing.
Some can't be used by you,
some can only be used by you. Some are single use, some can be
used many times...And some aren't meant to be used, I guess."
"The point is...It's should be common sense about how these things goes, maybe
you can just check the item's description page when you first got it, or you could just
wait until something ask you to use the item. Don't worry, you'll be fine."
"It's not complicated when you don't think about it, I promise."
"..."
"Let's see what we can do next..."
1b» Item categories and tags
"Look here,"
"This is a banana, and it is an item."
"It's category is 'Organic' and 'Edible', and its tags are 'Small' and 'Yellow'"
"You probably've guessed, categories and tags are, for the most part,
just a way to identify an item...Could be useful too. Imagine
someone asked you for a fruit
to eat (prompt specify 'Organic'and'Edible') ...you can't
just
give
that person a banana trumpet right? because the
thing may look like
a fruit but you can't eat it."
"If you hover your cursor over 'banana' or its picture, you'll see its item ID."
"Cllick on it, and that will take you to banana's description page.
All the secret knowledge about a banana
will be there...if you need it."
"You can hover over some of the text there for more info, too"
"At the moment, the tags are..."
'S'/'M'/'L'(sizes)
'Colour' related tags
'Unique' : *Can only have1 of this item in inventory at a time
'Key' : *Can't be discarded unless told to
"Anyway, this here banana was meant for you.
Really, Hans wants to give it to you, take it."
"..."
"I said take it."
"Go ahead and add a banana to your inventory."
"Congratulations, you now have a banana in your pocket."
"If you decide to eat it now, the 'technical' process is that you have to
discard the 'banana' and then add 'banana peel' to your inventory."
"...of which you can either keep(why though), or discard."
"Of course you can just, you know, eat it, skip all of this and discard it from
the start...don't even have to add it into your inventory in the first place!"
"But if you don't want to eat it...well, just add a banana to your inventory then."
"..."
"...Hey, don't tell me you don't want it, What Hans's going to
do if you
won't take the thing.
He'd be so upset and melt away, surely. Come on,
you can save it
just in case someone, I don't know, need an emergency
banana.
Yeah, that."
"Oh, and if, for some reason, you're still not sure about how to put that banana in your
pocket,
go see this
section...or just hold on, we'll get to it."
2» Introduction to IDs and Passcodes
"That banana from earlier...I'm sure you have seen its item ID already."
"IDs are for, well, identification of course. It'll be very useful when
the situation calls for an item of specific IDs...something like that."
"Another thing are the Passcodes, those thing are different."
"So what is it? Well, a Passcode is a set of passwords,"
"A complete Passcode has two sides, A-side and B-side.
Each has its own
unique set of 6 characters"
"If you see a message like this:
'Passcode obtained: A-xxxxxx|B-xxxxxx'
it is a passcode. If it's me I'll take a picture...or put it in a notepad,
or scribble it in a diary or something."
2a» Using Passcodes
"So those Passcodes are fancy and all, but what can it do?"
"Sometimes in your travels, you may find that in order to take some
specific actions/proceed, It is required that you have full, or at least
half of the Passcode."
"It's that simple."
"Thing like that really test your honesty, right?"
"In a few circumstances however, the thing will require
you to manually type in the requested passcode in order to proceed."
"..."
"...It's still relatively easy to cheat, I know."
"Like I said, there's your integrity...Don't want to use it? Well, do
whatever you think is fun and all that. You're not my problem."
3» Your Inventory
"So, did you ate your banana? Or do you still have it clutched
in your hand not sure what to do?"
"If you want to take things with you, of course, you must put them in your pocket,
backpack, knapsack, wicker basket...or whatever container you have, right?"
" That's your inventory. But the important part is you'll need to keep
a record of what you have, what's on your person and such."
"There should be a few ways to do it. Me? I'd just create a
Bookmark folder on the computer to use as my inventory record."
"Technology sure is amazing."
"You know that every items have their own Description page, right?"
"Say, if I've been given a banana, I'd just go and bookmark the
banana's page in a folder called 'Inventory'."
"Simple as that."
"By the way, did you see that 'Dicarded' folder?"
"When you 'discard' something it's gone of course, but keeping a record
of what you've used or thrown away is a good way to keep track of your activities."
"For Passcodes I'd just copy the code and paste it in a notepad or something."
"...Old fashioned pen and paper could work too, of course.
Both as Inventory and passcodes memo if you have the patience.
"'
"Hm...What else,"
"Oh, right. If you're heading out later,
take this map with you.
"
"Put it in your inventory if you want. There are a few of
these
available for grab at the entrance as well"
"Wait, you already have one?"
"..."
"Anyway... don't forget to actually add the puzzle cube to your
inventory record then...it's yours after all."
"Well, that should cover everything."
"..."
