	Just staring at the outer wall... A running theme in Cave Story is isolation, from being left in a cave by yourself and having to relearn the world around you. This certainly is felt during this scene where we are seeking refuge to a remote mountain outside of the Doctor's control, but does any of this really apply when we've escaped the island ''with'' Kazuma? We have no contact with the rest of Kazuma's family, none of the Mimiga, and no other living being other than the flying dragon and Kazuma Sakamoto. This journey is portrayed as an silent, endless excursion to refuge, leaving you to reflect on all of the people and places you've knowingly left in harm's direct path due to your inability to overcome a tyrannical colleague. Indeed, the outer wall is indeed a peaceful setting, but it is one at the expense of every person you've started your new life with. Whose team were you on for the entirely of the scenario up to this point? The connections and bonds made thus far -- if this was your final choice, were they ever of any value to you? Whatever the case might be, you've again achieved isolation. Together.

	I'm thinking of delving into what leads into the original war brought upon the island by the surface. I ultimately want to replicate what made Cave Story a cult classic, which includes the deeply emotional and situational conflict inflicted upon its characters. While its main character cannot be Quote, I believe it is still possible to allow the player to place themselves into the main character's shoes via other literary methods.

	Within the story, I want to highlight tropes such as ethical and psychological egoism as the motives for the main antiheroes / antagonists. ~~While~~ it isn't a direct ~~comparison~~, ~~it became a topic of questioning ever since~~ it was uncovered that characters such as Balrog and Misery are serving against their own interests when they were cursed to be slaves to the Demon Crown's owner. Actions not aligning with their psychological desires; acting maliciously to the island, while simultaneously wanting to do good. In addition, Dr. Date Fuyuhiko was a part of the original research team that came to the island, which included the Sakamotos, Itoh, and Professor Booster.		Within the story, I want to highlight tropes such as ethical and psychological egoism as the motives for the main antiheroes / antagonists. Cave Story repeatedly showcases characters with well-intended actions being met with fatal punishment. And while it isn't a direct example, it was uncovered in the story that characters such as Balrog and Misery are serving against their own interests when they were cursed to be slaves to the Demon Crown's owner. Actions not aligning with their psychological desires; acting maliciously to the island, while simultaneously wanting to do good. In addition, Dr. Date Fuyuhiko was a part of the original research team that came to the island, which included the Sakamotos, Itoh, and Professor Booster.

	Meanwhile, psychological egoism is the view that mankind itself is selfish and self-serving, which is briefly implied within Cave Story whenever "the surface" is mentioned. Ultimately, this form of egoism is intended to be the main catalyst for the war that brings our favorite silent protagonist upon the island.

-In Cave Story, the killer robots target one of the island's main inhabitants, Mimiga, in order to recover the Demon Crown for the surface. However, Quote, Curly, and in addition new characters such as Aristle and Kisaragi, are tasked with destroying the Demon Crown entirely. This story is placed right before Cave Story's beginning, but after the events where Ballos became imprisoned. Around ten years before the events of Cave Story, Miakid becomes the Crown's holder. This story's placement within this decade is unlikely, as this is the time period where killer robots have already invaded the island, whereas this story will be leading up to this action.
