How It Begins
You might be anyone carrying nothing. You were sitting at your computer, attempting to run a game, when your vision doubled, blurred, and faded.
When your vision returns, you find yourself underneath a spotlight in a perfect circle of white surrounded by utter total darkness. Also in the spotlight are these items: a black string, a white string, a pair of scissors, a wad of cotton and a closed matchbook. What will you do?
