"Special Quest means that we are not the only people here," Avery said calmly.
"So more people are attempting the Quest?" Isaac asked.
"No, it's different." She shook her head. "They are not attempting the Quest. Rather, it should be said the System brought them here."

"Think of it as some other people are dreaming and have joined the Quest through dreams. They will not receive any rewards, nor will they know they are inside a Quest.
"They are dreaming of the past—of this exact moment—so they will act naturally.
"They don't remember anything about the 'present', just like how you forget things when you are dreaming.
"However, once they wake up, they will remember what happened here," she explained.
"Wait… so they'll remember us too?" Alice questioned.
"Yes."
"That sounds… dangerous," Alice commented.
