hm_outtro is a terminal beat in HM with reaction "'There is a great mural near here that tells the history of our civilization,' [heshe] says. 'It is the best place to begin. To find it, [if location is not Reflecting Pool]find your way back to the pool at the base of the stairs and then [end if]follow the path through [d]shadows[x].'". hm_outtro2 replace hm_outtro. After discussing hm_outtro: if tour-progress is 0, now tour-progress is 1; continue the action.

hm_outtro2 is a repeatable terminal beat in HM with reaction "'[if tour-progress is 1 and location is Reflecting Pool]Follow the path through [d]shadows[x] to the start of the mural,' [heshe] reminds you[else]Goodbye, visitor,' [heshe] says[end if].".

tour-progress is a number that varies.

Before going to Mural Far East when tour-progress is 1:

if the number of Lacunite-gardeners in Mural Far East is 0:

let soul be a random Lacunite-gardener;

now the counter of soul is 1;

move soul to Mural Far East.

Every turn when location is Mural Far East and tour-progress is 1 and a random chance of 1 in 2 succeeds and Nursery is unvisited and a random Lacunite-gardener is enclosed by location:

say "[The random Lacunite-gardener enclosed by location] smiles at you. 'When you are finished here,' [heshe] says, 'we invite you to see the nursery where young Thinkers grow.' [CHeShe] points through the trees towards the [d]nursery[x], then goes back to gardening.";

now tour-progress is 2;

continue the action.

Every turn when location is Nursery and tour-progress is 2 and a random chance of 1 in 2 succeeds and Ancient Temple is unvisited:

say "One of the gardeners looks up. 'When you are finished here,' he says, pointing, 'you can cross the [d]avenue[x] towards the circle of trees on the opposite side-- what you might think of as a temple.'";

now tour-progress is 3.

Every turn when location is Ancient Temple and tour-progress is 3 and Shrine is visited and a random chance of 1 in 2 succeeds and Outside the Dome is unvisited and mechanic is enclosed by location:

say "The man at the capsule looks up. 'When you're finished here,' he says, nodding into the forest, 'take this path towards the [d]waterfall[x] and the mural, then continue towards a dome through the trees.'";

now tour-progress is 4.

Every turn when location is Outside the Dome and Map Room is visited and tour-progress is 4 and Great Tree Interior is unvisited:

say "The red-robed man nods. 'If you are finished here,' he says, '[unless gp_intro is spoken]then the Philosopher is ready to speak with you. Go back to the [d]avenue[x] and then follow it up the hill towards the Philosopher[else]then you may explore the Heart as much more as you like. But when you are ready to return to Lacuna, simply close your eyes[end unless].'";

now tour-progress is 5.
