Life, Liberation, and the Pursuit of Video Games Adrian Paul Essigmann

Welcome to the City. There is no war. There is no obesity. There is no alcoholism. There is very little crime. There is no child abuse. There is no freedom because we have been liberated from it! My name is Calder and I'm in fifth-grade. My school is a video game and I love it! My teachers are perfect because they are computer programs designed by the State! I'm sorry you live in our City. There is a war outside. The food is horrible. Everything is regulated. Corruption is widespread in the upper levels of society. Kids are little better than serfs. There is no freedom because the State controls everything! My name is Alie and I'm in fifth-Grade. My school is a video game and I'm good at it. There is a way to bring down the City and their awful propaganda programs! There is a wizard named "Calder" in the game and he is the only chance we have of being free...but will he fight for us?
