Clipping into Comfort

All I wanted was a decent nap. So, I struck a simple deal with the harbor NPC: my starting boots for a rusty tutorial key. By clipping through the dock's collision mesh, I swiped the unique Class Change scroll from a hidden chest right before Zallan, the arrogant Chosen One, could trigger his scripted event. But my sequence break did something weird to Zallan's destiny. Instead of becoming my bitter rival, his character arc glitched, turning him into a fiercely loyal, hyper-enthusiastic sidekick who insists on doing all my chores. Now I'm living the dream in a cozy, out-of-bounds sanctuary, armed only with my tragically useless weapon affinity: a bamboo backscratcher. Our peaceful haven even attracted Brilla, Zallan's neglected fiancée, who ignores the plot entirely just to bake us glowing pastries. But my best friend Kemi is hiding a terrifying secret about the impending server-wiping 'Crimson Swell'. I've been following a mysterious speedrun journal to glitch away the apocalypse without lifting a finger, only to realize the handwriting is my own. If my past self orchestrated this perfectly lazy, heartwarming life, what terrible sacrifice did I make to reset the timeline in the first place?
