Game?

Oh, and I take that as a high compliment! Thank you! ;)

How interesting, I wouldn't mind seeing how this progresses.

Thanks! More on the way! 'Destiny' has inspired a scene or two for this. :)

Very nice. The story flows very well, just the right amount of description and narrative. Hope to see more of this.
