...So...yeah, you’re probably wondering who this could possibly be...well...would you believe me if I said...the literal Devil himself?!

As I saw him, I immediately let out a loud scream, catching everyone by surprise.

“Is something the matter?” Asked the Sunflower woman.

As I take another look, the demon is gone, and in his place sits a wise-looking humanoid Citron wearing what looks like a demon pelt covering his whole body, as well bearing a sort of headpiece made of strange fierce horns and teeth.

“I...I just saw something...disturbing. Sorry.” I replied.

“Fascinating. This one doesn’t seem to intend on causing harm, but alas, it could be mere trickery.” The Chief spoke.

“Could someone please just explain where I am and what’s going on here?!” I asked in desperation.

“Alas, I can only explain the secrets of our village to those who are trustworthy. However...I suppose we can allow you to stay in a closely-watched cell until we confirm your origins.” The Chief replied.

“But...you see, I’m not from around here. I was dumped here by a crazy gnome dude who claims to be the “Father of Time”.”

“You WHAT?!”

“You know him?”

“Not personally, but to be able to meet one such as he in person is a tremendous honor that should not be taken for granted.”

“It just felt awkward.”

“The Father of Time never does anything without reason, and if he has taken you here, you must have great significance...if you are telling the truth that is. Although, you are an immortal, like he, so I can see him confronting you for that reason.”

“That’s exactly why apparently. I’m still not sure why he just ditched me here though.”

“If That is the case, then I suppose you may stay as long as you like. And as for why he would do this seemingly unreasonable act, only time will tell...”

“Uhh, thanks.”

“Perhaps Dennis and Kelly could aid you on finding a dwelling place?”

The Corn and Sunflower nod.

“I guess I’ll be staying for a while...so I suppose. You don’t really have to worry about me much though. I don’t eat, sleep, drink, breathe, sweat, or take any form of physical harm. I’m basically crap.” I replied.

“Ah. The one before you was like that. Quite sad actually.” Replied the Chief.

“But...who is this “one before me”? Am I not the only Sunflower experiencing eternal Hell?!”

“I’m afraid not. He wasn’t as kind as you of course, and seemed to take amusement out of causing trouble...until one day he just...vanished.”

“Huh. Well...alright. What really goes on here, though?”

“Quite fine, thank you very much.”

The Peashooter steps in

“...Actually, this place is a dump. Everyone’s dying of boredom all day ‘round, and we hardly have enough food to keep us alive!”

“Well...fuck. At least you won’t have to worry about me I guess...”

“Precisely. Now, if you excuse me, I have work to attend to.”

And the Chief Citron leaves. Welp, guess if I’m going to be staying in this dump, I barter get to know these freaks.

However, as I leave to go meet with the other two, something doesn’t feel right, even for a place like this. Like That Demon never actually left...
