Run___Run was missing formatting. It's a computer joke.
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.
c:dos c:dosrun rundosrun.
after getting the answers i think we should write them vertically with the last letters aligned (mountains)?

I think they might all be three letter acronyms.

9 Soul, in Paris: French for "soul" is "âme", so I'm guessing that means AME.
I'm now uploading the stuff written here to that.
What about the numbering system?
Zzzzzzzzzz
Acronyms maybe, but there's no question about how Jean-Claude van Damme spells his last name and it isn't three letters long.
...if you don’t love you’re dead, and if you do, they’ll kill you for it.
Actually, it might vary, come to think of it. Since AGORA and DAMME seem to be perfectly valid answers.
That said, I just noticed something:
"These are our mountains, see?" "You ain't never gettin' across!" "Yeah, you're goin' down!"Crossword clues?
That seems probable. The numbering is consistent with down clues, and they all sound like crossword clues to me. So, they want us to create the crossword whose down clues are these, then find out what the across words are, maybe?
Also, letter after Z is probably eta (Z being the greek letter zeta).
Belief or disbelief rests with you.
