Lucid9: Inciting Incident

// D-DAY. You're a murderer. // 1 DAY PRIOR. You can't trust anyone. You lose your mind. // 3 DAYS PRIOR. Someone dies before your eyes. Your friends distance themselves from you. // 4 DAYS PRIOR. Your school enforces a curfew. You nearly drown. Your past catches up to you. // 6 DAYS PRIOR. You learn that students at your school have been disappearing into nothingness. You visit an amusement park with a bunch of friends anyway. // 8 DAYS PRIOR. You take a history exam. Maybe you pass, maybe you fail. Then you participate in a treasure hunt in the sketchiest part of the city. Thankfully, nothing happens. Or maybe something does. // 9 DAYS PRIOR. You visit a career fair to review your options. Doesn't seem like there is a bright future ahead of you. You also meet a crazy woman with a vocabulary larger than her height who claims to be a detective. // 10 DAYS PRIOR. You immerse yourself in classes, friends, and an everyday routine. You eat copious amounts of fried chicken and are press-ganged into advertising for a club you're not even in. This is where the game begins. // THE THING IS: You can choose to fight this outcome.
