Asking the Right Question

"Enjoying yourself?"

Those two words were soft yet firm as if a whisper was able to cross endless distances. Jack took a deep breath and slowly turned around, hoping that his theory proved correct.

The moment he looked behind him, Jack's excited smile changed into a look of confusion. He scratched his head and squinted his eyes. "Aren't you supposed to come out and let me review the tutorial by now?"

"Indeed."

Again the voice came from behind Jack, this time a hand also landed on his shoulder to slowly turn him around.

Finally, Jack came face-to-face with the person he was looking for. After coming to Kartonia and experiencing the Achievement System, Jack was certain that this man had something to do with everything. He had more questions then he could count, and no one in all of Kartonia would be able to answer him, other than perhaps this man.

"So, you are real," said Jack, trying to keep control of his excitement.
