You are inside the Central Control Room, its walls painted a light gray. It is rather spacious inside, and the room is almost empty, save for drop lights illuminating a desk to the far right of the room, and the console's keyboard. There is a gaping hole on one of the walls. Many screens are lined up next to each other against one wall, all powered. They display blue screens with "vloss" in white text. Also here are Sgt. Arni (60HP), Dr. Able (32HP), Amy Hanley (50HP), Primrose Arni, Taiga Rosetti, Roselaine, an outsider (50HP), and Darry, the figure in white (60HP).
The broadcast system is powered, but is currently off-air.
There is a pile of sixty dead bodies here, and thirty-three bodies that have been knocked unconscious or temporarily immobilized.
- You select the "Play recording" option.
There were no other options on the screen, after all. It's alright that Arni didn't explain anything to you, since he seems to be able to control specifically which parts of the console are accessible to you at any given time.
The video begins to play, and it seems to be from Arni's point of view.
