Chapter 1

I must ask, before I begin, that you not tell this story to anyone. I don’t want them to come after you. There may be some danger involved. 
Because in the world we live in, one must never discuss the Great Big Secret. 
If you did, the first thing they’d do is deny it. Yes; if you went out and asked people they’d all say it isn’t true. 
Well, dear reader, I’m here to tell you that it is. 
And, in fact, there have been a few who have figured it out. Brave souls who have dared to think for themselves. To challenge the things they had been taught. 
This is the story of one of them. 
James Peartree is his name. He discovered the Secret completely by accident. He was just a young boy living in the city of Sunnyapolis. 
You’ve never heard of Sunnyapolis, have you? I know you haven’t. Because the city of Sunnyapolis no longer exists. 
It was shut down, and all its inhabitants were moved to other cities. You cannot find any records of it. All documentation was destroyed so that the world would never again be reminded of James and his discovery. 
But I am getting ahead of myself here. Let’s get back to that fateful morning.
