0x00 - Introduction

My name is MoonChild_Blue. And this is my story.

It's a story that I will tell as it goes along, because that way we will all be surprised when we learn the final outcome.

It’s a story that starts with my death, but don’t let that put you off - I am not a ghost, nor am I a vampire, a zombie, an inferius or any other type of undead creature that you might have heard of.

I am actually a school teacher at the Scottish State School S4-MW-3599 on Ludus II - teaching English Lit and Oasis History.

My teaching name is Miss Josephine Gray and it is possible that some of you who are reading this were taught by me - I have been teaching for eight years and a lot of students have passed through my classes in that time.

MoonChild_Blue is the name I go by most often in The Oasis, and the one under which I have had most of my adventures, my triumphant moments and my less than than triumphant moments.

My third name - my real name (the one I was born with out in the real world) - is known only to five people, and I intend to keep it that way.

Today was the first anniversary of The Battle of Castle Anorak - sometimes known as The Battle of Chthonia and The Battle For The Egg. It also marks the first anniversary of my death.

And it is also the day that I received a silver key, delivered to my cubby hole in the staff room at 3599. A silver key that is purportedly a final gift from my mother. Which, I suspect, doesn't sound all that surprising except that I don't have a mother and have no idea what the key is for, or who it came from.

My name is MoonChild_Blue, and this is my story.
