Rez started as a quick alternative to Twine for an author who had become frustrated with Twine. Twine describes itself as an "open source tool for telling interactive, nonlinear stories."

You could have an inventory representing things different actors know about and use an item for individual topics/thoughts....

Version 1.1 (02 Jan 2024) By Matt Mower <self@mattmower.com> Introduction Rez is an open source system for creating choice-based HTML games & interactive fiction.
