It was about door 30-40 into your trip to retrieve the crystal, and you had just now stumbled upon a set of rooms with strange, large metal boxes with lots of little white lights and buttons on them. You were walking along the walls, looking for any sub-rooms to look for data in before you found a door.

When you went through it, though, it wasn't the normal sub-room with lots and desks and shelves and item lockers to go through–it was a mostly empty room with a fenced off area in the furthest left corner. Behind the fences was… Painter, sitting on a desk with a laptop open next to him.

It didn't take him very long to notice you, and he spoke up almost immediately after you came into the room:

– "Oooh, a visitor! Don't get those often, especially recently…"

he continued,

"Before you start accusing me of whatever, I don't have you. It's… nothing personal, no idea who you are!"

"It's… just Sebastian. You've seen the guy around before, haven't you? He said he would help me. He PROMISED he would get the two of us out of here."

"Our… 'shared prison'."

He paused for a moment before continuing again,

"So he asked me to delay the retrieval of the crystal for as long as possible. I'm sorry for any… inconvenience I might've caused in the process"

"I… don't want to go back to Roblux mining. It's so… mind-numbing, I… can't bear it any longer."

"I just wanna make art again."

"Sebastian will come back for me whenever he finds a way out. He just has to."

He didn't say anything after that…
