Long ago, two races ruled over Earth: HUMANS and MONSTERS. One day, war broke out between the two races. After a long battle, the humans were victorious. They sealed the monsters underground with a magic spell. Many years later... MT. Ebott 201X. Legends say that those who climb the mountain never return. UNDERTALE FLOWEY: Howdy! I'm FLOWEY! FLOWEY the FLOWER! Hmmm... You're new to the UNDERGROUND, aren'tcha? Golly, you must be so confused! Someone ought to teach you how things work around here! I guess little old me will have to do. Ready? Here we go. [Enter Battle] FLOWEY: See that heart? That is your SOUL, the very culmination of your being! Your SOUL starts off weak, but can grow strong if you gain a lot of LV. What does LV stand for? Why, LOVE, of course! You want some LOVE, don't you? Don't worry! I'll share some with you! Down here, LOVE is spread through... Little white... "friendliness pellets." Are you ready? Move around. Get as many as you can! FLOWEY: You idiot... In this world, it's kill or BE killed. Why would ANYONE pass up an opportunity like this?! Die. [FLOWEY begins laughing] TORIEL: What a terrible creature, torturing such a poor, innocent youth... Ah, do not be afraid my child. I am TORIEL, caretaker of the RUINS. I pass through this place every day to see if anyone has fallen down. You are the first human to come down here in a long time. Come. I will guide you through the catacombs. [Exit Battle] TORIEL: This way. The shadow of the RUINS looms above, filling you with determination.
