An operation failed. An ambush by unknowns. An ancient trooper, now an enigmatic foreigner stranded somewhere someplace. Rescued by a deserter, someone similar yet distinct, who vanished without a trace. Abandoned yet again, the foreigner must survive alone within this land of adventure and fantasy made real, blending in… to a point, while being hunted… nominally. A virus in a system. Alien among aliens. Masks worn as faces, devoid of identity. A mind decayed by time. A purpose long lost. Gods scheme upon rotting thrones, shackled to wills not their own. Great powers feast upon their world, stomachs never satiated. Underneath, a graveyard sleeps while primordials conjure air to breathe. The world’s grand play motions forward, yet its evolving stage remains contrived. Meaningless happenings, granted meaning. People found, turned to characters. Memories, turned to story. Events in observation, narrativized. The play’s stage being set for a narrative dance between the protagonist designated and it which watches, with ever meddling interest.
