The three stand in open ground, with a green forest just along the right-hand edge. Cyrus looks left, offscreen to the left and down the ditch; Val has an exclamation mark over her head.

Cyrus: …Is that the Greyfield bus?

Val, excited: We’re IN the block game?!

Rudy: I know, right?! I haven’t checked out this world in years ’cause it’s multiplayer only,

but now—

Val: Th-there’s a sky! And grass and trees and dirt and—

Rudy bangs his staff on the ground.

Rudy: Focus!

Rudy: Since you’re here, I command you to help me out.

We’re gonna find The Reward.

Cyrus: Valerie, you don’t have t—

Val, ignoring them: There’s a reward?

The trio ventures into the trees: Rudy in front, Cyrus and Val not far behind.

Rudy: Legend has it that the last king left a precious treasure right here in town.

Or around it; I forget.

Val: In town?! Are there any townspeople?

Rudy: Nah, bro. It’s always been empty.

Val, disappointed: Oh....

The trio travels through the woods.

Val: Say, Rudy…

Rudy: Ye?

Val: What is this rewar— [with feeling] The Reward, anyway?

Rudy: Heck if I know. But “you’ll know it when you find it,” so I’m betting it’s been under our noses all along.

Val: Well, that’s not a very helpful hint. Who told you that?

Rudy: The king herself. Before she got fuckin lost.

The group comes to an abrupt halt; there’s another swarm of bugs up ahead, surrounding a building.

Rudy: Oh come on!
