[MADELINE left distracted]
Sodalite is getting more and more concentrated.
[MADELINE left determinedclosed]
But I still have enough time.

[MADELINE left upset flip]
This is {~}way{/~} worse than I anticipated...
If rest of the path is like this, I might not even reach the damn {# 00bec5 }pyramid{#}. {2}
[MADELINE left determined]
Calm down {+MADELINE}... {2}They sent you for a reason.
[MADELINE left normal]
Everything will work out.

So much for approaching from the sheltered side.
[MADELINE left sad]
And the {#ff6363}ritual{#} is still in progress.

At least I won't be going uphill anymore.

Executing plan B without oversight due to equipment malfunction.
Thanks for everything {+MOM}.
I love you!
[MADELINE right normal]
Time to think {+MADELINE}.
The door is shut.
But people were going into this place hundreds of years ago.
What would I use as a door handle if people thought I was a god?
If I look around, I might find some {~}hints{/~} on what to do.

2024StoryContest_clutterArranger_silver=
Hey there! clutterArranger here. Small Pyramid is my first Celeste map.
I learned a lot while working on this one. And I hope to continue mapping.
I hereby thank every single person that helped me make this map.
And you! It means a lot to me that you are trying to get the golden berry.
So I left you a little gift.
If you climb up the clouds you will face a harmless bonus room.
You won't be able continue without completing it though.
Just jump into the hole on the right side if you are not interested.

2024StoryContest_clutterArranger_silver_bye=
I hope you enjoyed that!
Or did you skip my gift?
It does not matter now. I just wanted an excuse to place some commentary in the map.
Anyway, please reach out to me if you actually golden this thing!

2024StoryContest_clutterArranger_secret=
His soul will rise, pulling ours with it.
Nothing below will compare to what is above.
We will have it all.

2024StoryContest_clutterArranger_sigil_rules=
When you perform dashes in one of the correct sequences, the door will move.
This only works if you do it in the area that is marked with red lines.
Possible correct sequence, can be found by examining the wall painting.
To skip the puzzle part entirely, dash down near a wall painting 5 times to see the answers.
Doing this again will toggle it off after dying.

2024StoryContest_clutterArranger_protection_hint=
Do not stand on the path of a door when it is moving.

2024StoryContest_clutterArranger_loyalty_hint=
Coming out of bubbles does not count as a dash for the answer.

2024StoryContest_clutterArranger_ladder_hint=
Holding grab while dashing into a ladder will cancel all horizontal momentum.

2024StoryContest_clutterArranger_persistence_hint1=
Do not dash unless doing so gives your dash back.
Only one of the answers allows you to do this.
2024StoryContest_clutterArranger_persistence_hint2=
Fast falling into portals can help with stamina.
2024StoryContest_clutterArranger_persistence_hint3=
You must grab the door after your last dash input.
2024StoryContest_clutterArranger_persistence_hint4=
You can do this.

2024StoryContest_clutterArranger_seeker_hint=
Respawning seekers can trigger switches.

2024StoryContest_clutterArranger_dont_hint=
You need to be able to dash at the very end.

2024StoryContest_clutterArranger_final_hint1=
Each dash angle sets a seeker free.
2024StoryContest_clutterArranger_final_hint2=
Activate the middle switch last.

2024StoryContest_clutterArranger_crouch_hint=
Did you realize you are not {~}that{/~} into crouch dashing?
Climb up the sideways platform in the previous room to get out!

[MADELINE left surprised]
AAAAHH! WHAT!?
