《Recovery: Ignis》Prologue
Advertisement
The moment I awoke, I had a few questions. Though I knew I wouldn’t be getting any real answers I still had to ask them.
What Happened?
Where is this?
Why does my head hurt?
….. and perhaps most importantly of all…
Who am I?
Keiren Ignis
Well…. That was unexpected. Maybe I should open my eyes and see what the heck is going on.
Slowly, I opened my eyes, adjusting to the pain that doing so caused. Hmm… okay, eyes open. I seem to be laying down on the ground in a cavernous space of some sort? I can't tell much other than it is dimly lit, and everything looks grey. How about sitting up and looking around?
As the pain and nausea washed over me I decided it would be best to wait a while longer, as I don’t want to be laying or sitting in a puddle of my own vomit.
Maybe I should confirm a few things while we wait. I know what my name is because that screen told me. But what is the screen? Dang, no new screen explanation. Okay. I won’t be discouraged by one failure. Perhaps the screen information is limited to me? How about this, what is my current status?
Name: Keiren Ignis Race: #ERROR# HP: 25(50) Gender: #ERROR# ST: 100(100) Level: #ERROR# EXP: 0(0) Current Status: Amnesia (semi-permanent), Concussion Titles: #ERROR# Attributes STR: 5 WIS: 5 DEX: 5 INT: 5 CON: 5 CHA: 5 PER: 5 LUCK: 45 WARNING: MUST DEFINE SELF FURTHER BEFORE MOVEMENT WILL BE PERMITTED
Well… Ok. So. What. In. the. Actual. Fuck.
At least now I know why my head hurts and I have no memories. Also why trying to sit up brought me close to losing my lunch (Did I even eat lunch before all this?). Okay. So. I know who I am, but have no idea as to what I am. We're off to a wonderous freaking beginning of whatever this is.

I’ll worry about what all of that other stuff is about once I clear those errors. I assume that would be done by defining myself. I'd like to know more about my current situation before I start changing myself using whatever these screens provide, but that doesn't seem to be an option.
Alright, so, how do I “define self”?

Oh. Great. No Pressure or anything. Well, even if I screw myself somehow, it isn’t as if I can tell what will be a good or bad idea, with what little knowledge I have.

A Pirate's Life for Mei
In the future, prisoners are no longer kept in traditional prisons. They're put into comas and permanently dwell within realistic, full-dive virtual worlds. Mei is a journalist and activist falsely convicted of political crimes after accusing an official of sexual harassment. She finds herself in chains aboard a ship in the Caribbean, a prison realm set in 1675, in the age of sail. Oversight is corrupt and the guards are violent. While most prisoners sullenly endure their hardship, Mei knows that this world has a loophole: prisoners can buy their freedom — if they can get the gold. And this also happens to be the golden age of piracy. Yo ho, yo ho. It's a pirate's life for Mei. Book 1 Mei arrives in the Caribbean and battles for her freedom against the devilish English navy, is kidnapped by Caribs, and comes face-to-face with a jaguar. She recruits fellow prisoners in an attempt to steal a boat and flee the prison colony. Book 2 Mei and her crew arrive in Sint Maartin and learn that the French and the Dutch are at war! As Lance, Juan, and Cheeto face their pasts, the crew becomes privateers. Their first prize: a ship full of rum and a week of drunken debauchery in Curacao. This puts them on the trail of Aztec gold buried deep in jungle ruins. An adventure filled with doublecrosses and stealing their first true ship! This is the All Ages version.
