Origin	Original

The Ward (also referred to as just Ward, or PS1/Playstation 1) is a map in Pillar Chase 2, made by Combive.

Layout

Map / Objectives layout. Brown = The Lost, and Blue = Computers.

Appearance

The Ward is a dark, decrepit house/hospital with chairs and tables everywhere. There is also an outside area, which is similar to a hedge maze. The inside of the map is really dirty and dark, making it good for monsters who are darkly colored.

Objectives

Turn on computers (0/6)

Spread around on tables on the inside of the map are old computers that can be held with E to turn on, showing a old Windows login screen. The player must hold E another time with sounds of audible typing before the computer is logged onto with a startup sound, completing the objective.

Talk to Lost Souls (0/6)

Scattered throughout the map, both inside and outside, are Lost Souls that can be interacted with by holding E. When you do, they will ask a question with two possible answers, and choosing one will complete the objective. The dialogues are listed below:

• "The soul is calling out, but to whom?"
  • Rosemary: "Ah the armless one, I remember."
  • Vapor: "The fiery one, I don't recall it."
• "What is the end?"
  • A chance to begin again: "I wonder, will I find my end here?"
  • Where everything ceases: "But I am still here, this can't be the end."
• "Do you remember me?"
  • Yes: "I would like to know myself."
  • No: "Am I lost forever?"
• "Will you free me?"
  • I will try: "Please.. I don't want to be lost any longer."
  • You can't be freed: "That's what I thought. I am lost after all.."
• "How long have I been here?"
  • Not long: "It has been forever, hasn't it?"
  • A very long time: "Time itself seems to have stopped."
• "Are we at the center?"
  • No, there is no center: "Perhaps that is why I go in circles."
  • Yes, we are here: "The center has pulled me in, I can't leave."

Last Man Standing

All the lamps on the Ward will glow red light as well as more of "The Lost" appearing everywhere inside the Ward and many appearing outside on the sides behind the fences.

Trivia

• While this map is original, it is based on old PS1 games.
• “The Lost” are meant to startle you when running and catch you off guard, they do not deal any sort of damage nor harm the player in the map.
• The dialogue with one of the Lost Souls suggests a connection to Rosemary.
• The task of logging into computers plays a typing sound effect, despite the fact that there are no keyboards or anything to type with in front of said computers.
