Alphys Expected To Take Your Soul Right There In The Lab, But Mettathew Stopped Her With His Dangerous

Alphys expected to take your soul right there in the lab, but Mettathew stopped her with his dangerous quiz show. You can guess that it's only to keep you alive for just enough time to get your soul to himself or the golden savior he mentioned.

To keep you in check, Mettathew gave you a "mettaphone", a strange gadget used both for communication and general utility.

An ominous structure looms in the distance. It's covered in scorched wines, familiar faces and symbols blink on it's screens.

Ring…

Name "Mettathew" appears on the screen of the mettaphone.

SEE THAT BUILDING IN THE DISTANCE, DARLING?

THAT'S THE CORE, SOURCE OF UNDERGROUND'S POWER.

AND THAT'S WHERE YOU ARE HEADED!

DON'T BOTHER GETTING TO THE ELEVATOR TO THE CASTLE, YOU WON'T GET THAT FAR ANYWAY.

MAY THE FLOWER FREE YOUR SOUL.

TOODLES!

The royal scientist is known for shady experiments she performs and deadly machines she builds and controls.

Only a few of those ordered to be transported to the lab came back. The sick are never seen again and the guards return… different. Monsters who live in Hotland and the capital heard of the reason for those transformations and disappearances, "determination". Something withing the souls of the fallen that allows them to persist after death once injected into monsters makes them fearless and more difficult to kill. At first the determination experiments and their side effects were kept secret, but once the royal scientist saw the potential for protection of monsterkind being silent about it became impractical.

Yet the creation of soldiers is not the only use of determination, as it seems to be able to give the will to live to things that never lived to begin with. Alphys the royal scientist found a way around the difficult engineering process, using monster dust, determination and ghosts' ability to posses objects to create machines that prevent fallen attacks and resident monsters from escaping their designated location.

The first machine that got Alphys her position was a "robot with a soul" that now calls himself Mettathew. While after his creation he went against the underground's status quo, joining the golden flower as it's right hand man as a propagandist, Alphys still keeps upgrading his body into an effective fallen eradication device.

Now Mettathew provides entertainment to the monsterkind. Most see him as a distraction from the "real" problems like a potential new fallen, the other few consider him an oracle of the golden flower that will eventually free monsters.

once again you are here. Again and again, Asgore kills you without even begining a proper battle. He doesn't give you a chance to act, use items, show mercy or fight. It feels like you found a dead end even your determination can't get you through. Or can it? Maybe we could try it all again and find another path?

Monsters told you their story, the reason you will have to give up your soul.

The castle now stands before you, looming over the empty gray city.

Golden hall, murky air, light barely shines through covered windows. A familiar figure stands in your way.

so you finally made it.

the end of your journey is at hand

in a few moments, you will meet the king

and together…

you will determine the future of this world.

that's then.

now.

you will be judged.

you will be judged for your every action…

(The figure speaks of your actions, both good and bad, every time you made friends, every time you ran away, every time dust was on your hands. What results will your actions bring.)

no matter how much or little pain you've caused

your soul alone won't bring us freedom.

neutrality will bring us nowhere,

you need to act upon what you have.

what will you do?

...

well, if i were you, i would have thrown in the towel by now.

but you didn't get this far by giving up, did you?

that's right. you have something called "determination."

so long as you hold on...

so long as you do what's in your heart...

i believe you can do the right thing.

alright. i'm counting on you, kid.

good luck.

(The skeleton steps back into the darkness of the hall and disappears.)

Muffet is believed to be one of the wealthiest monsters in the underground, yet, no matter how much she gains, spiders cannot leave the old capital. Even if the icewall of snowdin can be bypassed, the guards will not let out civilians from ruins. It is believed that the secret of muffet's success is help from the golden flower itself, it is known for uncanny knowelege of possible futures. Of course the flower takes something in return, afterall, who pays attention to a mere spider in the corner. Listening, watching, spinning a web of connections over the entire hotland and borders of waterfall.
