The group, Thomas, Guy-Man, Elodie, Phoenix and B, have been trapped in Omnicara for exactly three days. After the events of Zog's horror house the group hid in the caves beneath Phoenix's shed, unsure whether it was safe or not, but their biggest worry other than not knowing how to get back to the surface is Thomas, from his big change in behaviour they wondered if the horror house experience did more psychological damage than they thought.

"....and that's what is believed to have happened, we're still not sure how Massif was able to make a giant stalactite fall, but he did" Phoenix had begun teaching Elodie the history of Omnicara, he never did before, not knowing how trustworthy she would become,

"Is there any proof it happened like that?" Elodie asked, he looked at her blankly,

"He climbed from the crash site and announced what he had done, that's the only proof we have" he said, she nodded, Phoenix looked out the cave entrance,

"Are they still out there?" Elodie said quietly,

"Yes, but nothing changed" he turned away, clearly distraught by the current situation,

Guy and Thomas sat outside, Thomas in rest mode with no expression and Guy sitting next to him wondering what can he do to help, but not actually knowing,

"Tom, please say something" He said without touching Thomas,

"Hm" he hummed finally exiting rest mode, Thomas looked at Guy anxiously,

"You okay?" Guy reached out for him slowly,

"No, i-i'm- not" he choked,

"I just can't h-handle what just happened" he said quietly,

"It's over now, we're never going back in there" Guy hugged his friend, Thomas flinched but quickly leaned into the hug,

"Can you promise that?" He asked, Guy hugged him tighter,

"Any promise for you, Tom" he let go of him,

"Can you.... Leave me for a bit, please?" Thomas rested his head on his knees,

"Sure, I'm right inside if you need me" Guy said quietly and went back inside.

"Elodie? Where's Phoenix?" Guy asked Elodie who was sitting on a boulder,

"He needed to take a breath outside, he blames himself for not being able to protect you two" she says patting the spot next to her, He sat next to her with a thump,

"Guy, could you teach me a few things about Omnic magic? To distract both of us" Elodie tries comforting the stubborn robot,

"Alright, what do you want to know?" He seemed too tired to be stubborn with her,

"Your facial expressions confuse me, they seem to work like human faces, and some I've seen the metal slits on the faces move, how does that work?" She explains,

"Erm.... Well, magic" he scratches his helmet,

"A lot of things down here are aided with magic, aren't they?" Elodie jokes,

"They are" Guy says, ignoring that it was a joke, falling silent after a moment,

"Your still worn out?" She says,

"The water hasn't completely left my system yet" he sighs, a few days ago Massif injected water into Guy's system, it weakened him immensely and he still hasn't recovered, it's got Phoenix concerned, Elodie rubbed his shoulder,

"Do you have any ideas on how to get out of here?" She says,

"I only have one idea, but it's a little crazy" Guy says smiling a little,
