3Once, there lived a creature known simply as ‘The Storyteller’. This was a being that could create new worlds from its own stories; with the promise of fun adventures and exaggerated characters.
4But as The Storyteller grew older the stories did as well. They grew bored of the old tales, and instead began to create stories with much darker material. It took its old, beloved characters and twisted them. But in the end, even this did not sate its desires forever.
5The Storyteller soon grew bored once again, but this time it had a new idea. Using its powers, it began to pull others into the worlds of his stories with a simple message: “Entertain me!”
