Prologue

[Play: American McGee's Alice Dry Landing]

Madness is a slippery thing that can be found almost anywhere. In a serial killer out for blood, or a young girl, detached from the world and dreaming up the strangest of things. It could be in that man across the street, who lost a love one not too long ago, or that woman sitting next to you, plotting a sick and deadly revenge for her husband who cheated on her. It could be in you, for who would be crazy enough to read this?

Do not fret though, this world is just not the place in which we belong, so we have no reason to be self conscious of what the people here think of us. This world is full of normal and positively boring people who can't see beyond what is held in front of them. Who of us would want to be among such? Certainly not I, I take pride when people say that I am off my rocker, crazy, insane… mad… because I will be able to go places, witness sites, and actually do things that they couldn't even imagine.

So what of you, if I may ask? Do you thirst for adventure too? Do you wish for something more than to live out your life in this mundane place? Do you yearn to be the hero or villain of your own story?

If your answer is yes, then I, the Cheshire Cat, bid you welcome into a place where up is down, left is right, and everything is what you make it. A place where your dreams, or nightmares, become reality and your personal demons come out to play. A place where you can just sit down and have a nice cup of tea, or slice raging monsters to bloody pieces with the weapon of your choice. The name of this place? Wonderland. Be warned though, enter this place, fail to win the game, and you just might lose the last bit of sanity you have left…
