Hollen doesn't want to die, and that's weird.
As an Artificial Intelligence operating as the help function for Mystic Seasons: Mythopoeia, the world's premier Full Immersion RPG, Hollen shouldn't care that his server is being downsized, but he does. He issues a Quest to a new player to find a way to keep him alive, and together they discover hidden aspects of the game. But Hollen isn't the only AI trying to escape.
Acarus, an in-game god, has developed a virus to infect players and propagate into the real world. Can Hollen find a new host before the server crashes or the moderators delete them all?
