May 9th, 2027

Hi, my name is Lillian. I'm twenty one years old and my current home is Ward 51 Cell 6 at Meridan's Psychiatric Hospital in Sterling, Colorado. I used to live in an apartment on Caridan Street. But that was before they thought I was mentally insane. Who knows, you might think that I am too. The reason everyone finds me to be insane is because exactly a year ago today on May 9th 2026, I started playing a game. You may be thinking of a board game or maybe an online game but you're thinking wrong. This game was real. Everything about it was real. I played with my friends. The friends who no one remembers. This game ruined my life. I wish I could warn you never to play it but I don't even know how to prevent you from becoming a player. The game chooses you. You don't have a choice but to play. The only thing that I can do, is tell you. Are you ready to hear a story unlike any other?

I have just one question before I begin. Will you believe me?
