all secret levels contain lore, what lore does 2-S contain? (SPOILERS)

[dfebruary]

0-S contains the something wicked description and a testament

1-S also contains a testament and shows us that limbo has a day and night cycle

P-1 contains the minos prime, flesh prison description and the reason for why terminals play classical music

What lore does 2-S contain? At first i assumed mirage was similar in not just appearence, but personality to V1, and the level essentially showed V1 wolrdview: our boi is a ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ultra-cynic. BUT THEN HAKITA ON TWITTER CONFIRMED THAT MIRAGE IS JUST FOR THE LOLS AND NOT RELATED TO V1 AT ALL, SO WHAT'S THE LORE

If 2-S truly has zero lore its pretty inconsistent

[D4NUK1]

The perception of a future that hope is a reason not to look for, but that we already have with ourselves in each one of us and that will inspire us to a better goal instead of accepting an existential gap between good and bad. Besides that being on the floor of lust would make Mirage see as something she is not, do you appreciate her for her physique or for her intentions and ideas that she offers as a character? That's the real lore, it's not about hell, it's about us as whole.

Lust is a psychological force producing intense desire for an object, or circumstance while already having a significant other or amount of the desired object. Lust can take any form such as the lust for sexuality (see libido), money, or power.

If I had to guess, I would assume that the dev figured that having a reward for an almost completely text based level just be more text for you to read at the end would be weird.

Lust for money is just greed though, which is a different concept, and lust for power also arguably falls in that realm.

[Plumber]

the same themes are going to come back because they can be liberally applied to a malevolent god or his impostor council trying to force a purpose onto the world; then Minos deviating, the Sisypheans outright rebelling; and if not the Sisypheans, the unseen force weaponizing husks as Soldiers and Stalkers; alongside V1 either having no importance besides wanting to survive or having some grand importance after all

[Watereaters]

New Blood Interactive needed money to buy all of the gold sand needed for Greed, so Hakita made 2-S so NBI could sell body pillows of Mirage to buy all of the gold and grind it into dust.
