You press the button.
Dong.
A banner is now taped to a wall. It reads:
Watermark and all.
On the ground below the banner is a big sky-blue envelope.
You walk over and pick up the envelope. It isn’t written on anywhere.
Will you open it?
Of course you will. Obviously.
Inside is a big greeting card that says “congrats!”. Presumably because the person they hired to design 800 greeting cards was dead tired and couldn’t spell the full word correctly.
That’s my guess, at least.
Anyways, you open the card, and a couple flakes of glitter are spit out at you while some royalty-free music plays.
The card reads:
“Congrats! You pressed the button!”
…
Yep, that’s it.
That’s all there is.
There isn’t anything written anywhere else. It’s a letdown, really.
Honestly, I think that tone-deaf intern was also lacking in imagination.
Hmm? Intern? Oh, yeah, we outsource some work to interns. What agency doesn’t?
Anyways, you rip up the envelope, because there isn’t much else to do with it, and wipe the glitter off your face.
This is really quite a boring room.
DO YOU PRESS THE BUTTON? Yes No

When rulers are sending fathers and sons to battles, daughters and mothers whore themselves to afford another handful of wheat. Only the strong can prevail? All of them either died in the past battles or are enjoying the benefits of the jungle law. In this harsh reality, to win means to survive. To survive means to end other people's lives. To live means to exploit others. How can one reach for greatness, when this world is nothing but a toy in the hands of so-called 'God'?
