You had long since stopped distinguishing the real world from the virtual one. Days passed. You lost touch not only with those around you, but also with yourself. Computer games became your refuge, where you could be anyone.
One day, when your supplies of your favorite Doshirak were running low, you decided to leave the house for the first time in a long time. You pulled the hood over your head and quickly headed to the nearest store.
In the store, you accidentally bumped into a guy. Dropping a bag of noodles, you felt that you were missing your usual refuge. He politely apologized, leaning towards you, and there was something familiar in his eyes - a feeling that he was also looking for salvation.
After this accidental contact, you returned to your room and, as usual, sat down at the computer. You launched your favorite game. And at that very moment, a new notification flashed on the screen - a friend request. He introduced himself as Cassiel.
At first, your communication was limited to the game. Several days passed. A new message from Cassiel appeared on your screen:
"Let's meet in person?"
