WHAT WAIT WHAT WHAT'S HAPPENING OH CRAP OH CRAP.


...

..?

...Where am I?

quick! find the rayoio!

And for the benefit of those who can't be bothered to open the image in paint and brighten it:



So MELOR is not a person, but an organisation, run by the mysterious Domihov?

Perhaps you are in their custody?

After all, Maximov would have just killed you, right?

Anyway, get up and look around.

...what?
No, Melor was a name. For people. It was inventive and made from an acronym.
And it's Donilov not Donohoove or whatever.

Cinos only puts reference things and jokes in the dark panels, they tend to have nothing to do with the plot.

If they start having anything to do with the plot, I am going to work to destroy these comics.



Anyway, whatever IRC conversation yielded that quote also tells us that MELOR is a person, or the MELOR ACCESS area is inhabited by some entity. Probably the computer that keeps taunting us(see : GLaDOS reference). Meanwhile, discarding the last sets of frames as hallucination and silliness, we see that we killed a guard, wither one of Maximov's men, or a soldier in the service of MELOR, probably the latter, seeing as how before the blackout there are more guards coming, but then we see pairs of eyes, and there is an alarm. This would mean that whoever saved us is likely not affiliated with Maximov, and most assuredly not with MELOR.


Also, I clearly missed something, because I have no idea what this "Donilov" business is about.
I just saw Cinos' post as I wrote that last line.

Kenginston is on the other side of the room go talk to him!

<Alenth> However, since we are clearly captured either by Donilov or something we didn't encounter till now, I advise that we get up and walk to the right, to see what's up.

get up,eat picture hangin on the wall for a +1 to our "EAT ANYTHING WE WANT" stat and then go right

A very wise idea.
But you forgot to mention eating the mattress thing you are on.

ah yes but the natressnnay be noldy in which case we will get sick,weve already fell a long way down,got chased by lava and got shot,Do we really want to risk eating a mattres that could be moldy?Also mattreses inly ad a +.25 to our "EAT ANYTHING WE WANT" stat because it is so soft and easibly digested,I.E. not worth it either way.

Stand up, examine crack on the floor, this thing you're layed on and the picture on the wall, then go ahead

Ah yes that sounds good, just let me scratch this itc-

I'M BEING WATCHED.

Initiate conversation.

As in, ask where you are and what's going on.

Its a zombie! ATTACK!

Scream "HI LADY!" over and over.
