You put on a silly VR headset that was sent to you as some sort of advertisement. The box said it would be the best game of your life..

But you didn't know they meant literally.

You woke up to a person waving their hand above you, possibly checking if you were awake. He had elf ears and a wizard hat on as well. You looked around, too confused to say anything. You were in the middle of what seemed to be a fantasy forest. Suddenly, something that looked like a pop-up warned you.. if you die in the game, you die in real life.

You were trapped in a video game.
