A Player Within Perfect World
July 2005
In a time where the most advanced game computer could barely run games at 720p, a young boy, conveniently without parents, was about to play a new game that was set to be released that month.
One that was based on the wonderful myths of Taoism, Buddhism, and Chinese mythology.
Having been one of the thousand or so individuals in the occident who took their time to read 'Journey to the west', undoubtedly he couldn't be any more excited than he was.
When the servers finally opened and he logged on to his account, a thunderous voice reached out to him from the void that existed in between the foundations of the universe, at the threshold of existence once known simply as the firmament.
"A perfect world was my goal, I defeated the Void, and from his Chi, I used my flesh and bones to carve out all of existence, using my very being as the source of life both for animals, gods, sentient beings, and concepts.
"But the Void itself is relentless and eternal just as I am, he uses his power over creation to corrupt and seeks only to return everything and everywhere to the nothingness that it once was, oblivion without form and substance. The heroes, champions who rose from the weak to increase their power and fight for their beliefs tried, will try, and they will fail at the end, that's why I need you, a champion from Beyondearth, to assist me in my goal, and to assist you, I'll allow the true nature of Heavens Mandate to bind with you, at that time, you'll have every tool needed to face what is to come, fight my child, and one day, a power even above I once had might fall into your laps."
Just as his words ended, the boy suddenly lost his consciousness, and the next thing he knew was that a weird purple carnivorous plant capable of walking was trying to eat him.
