My name is Cassius, and my adventure started with the delivery of a mysterious guidebook to my deceased parents’ house. Then my office received a personal request email for me to travel to a place called Leserson Island. Of course, I couldn’t drop everything and go. I had responsibilities and a dog to look after.

Unless I got my sister to do it!

Once I had everything covered back home, I started my journey to this Leserson Island. But to get there, I had to go to the Consulate Archipelago. Even though I had an invitation, the Consulate had full authority over who could travel there. Only by fulfilling the requirements of the Consulate and meeting with the Chief Bureaucrat could I continue to Leserson Island. Yet these challenges were part of a culture and language which were unfamiliar to me.

Also, the guidebook I had received had almost no information about the Consulate or the tasks I had to complete!

Even more perplexing was why they invited me? I didn’t know these people, but they seem to know about my family and me. The longer I stayed at the Archipelago, the more of this connection I discovered. That is, presuming I can make it through these challenges and not be sent home!
