The War Begins

Players around the world settled inside their pods, or on their beds and chairs, with helmets on their heads. The last five minutes before the game went back online were counting down.

The hype was a world phenomenon, with even more players getting ready to launch the game than before the update. The forums were exploding with theories about what the update was, with no news about it from Evo-Gaming.

Throughout the seven-day update, posts about New Eden abounded. So much so, that it had drowned a single post out.

One person had seen this post when it went live, and this person was David. But the post had surprised even him, since this was not a repeating thing.

The post came from a disgruntled sister, whose brother had been in a coma ever since the update started, his body now laying in the hospital. But no matter how hard she tried yelling to the world that New Eden was dangerous, no one listened.
