Isaac asks him what's wrong, and he tells Isaac that he was cast aside by The Overlord and wants to become a player. Isaac tries to console him, but they are interrupted by The Servant who tells Isaac he is the "chosen one" to save Haven. He also tells Isaac that he needs to stay away from Arachnid because he is being targeted. Isaac then leaves to find Elijah. When he eventually does get to Elijah, he tells Isaac that he sold his entire stock, except for his sniper and golden gun, to John and the brotherhood. Elijah also tells Isaac that he's coming after his partner, Arachnid. After hearing the news, Isaac logs out in a panic, then hears a knocking at his window. He goes outside to investigate, but only sees a snow globe that was previously given to him by Solomon in E.V.E. He yells out to leave him and his family alone before coming back inside, which alerts Joseph. He asks Isaac what's wrong, and Isaac explains the whole situation to him and tells him he fears for his life. Joseph tells him that if he loves the game and it makes him happy, he should keep playing, even if it results in him dying.

## StoryFire Prologue

Michael approaches the usual spot where he communicates with The Overlord and kneels down.

***THE MODERATOR***: Sir... Permission to speak my mind?

...

***THE MODERATOR***: Sir? I understand we had a disagreement last time, but I believe I have a better solution to our problem.

The Moderator looks around... He seems impatient.

***THE MODERATOR***: My Lord...?

Suddenly. a mysterious figure emerges from the woods.

***THE SERVANT***: Greetings, Michael.

***THE MODERATOR***: \*Draws his Gun\* Who the fuck are you?

***THE SERVANT***: \*presents his hands\* I mean you no harm... I am 'the Servant', hand to the Overlord.

***THE MODERATOR***: Hand...? I am the hand to the Overlord. Not you.

***THE SERVANT***: Pardon me, sir. I am the \*other hand\* that is... Perhaps you have not heard of me.

***THE MODERATOR***: Can't say that I have... \*lowers his gun\* State your business.

***THE SERVANT***: You now will communicate to the Overlord through me.

***THE MODERATOR***: Excuse me...? I communicate with the Overlord directly.

***THE SERVANT***: That won't be necessary anymore. The Overlord doesn't need any more opinions.

***THE MODERATOR***: Oh, really? If he has a problem-

The Servant raises his hand to silence the Moderator.

***THE SERVANT***: He liked you better when you just followed orders, my friend. I believe you have a game to moderate.

The Servant smiles and slinks away into the woods, leaving no trace. The Moderator stand there... speechless... and fuming.

***THE MODERATOR***: This can't be good.

Michael looks to the in-game skies and shouts.
