    For Kristian, living in the Chip-Center and cut off from his friends, life has become a nearly endless sim fantasy, mostly centered around a long-lost love. 
    For Sanna, also living in the Chip-Center but out of touch with Kristian, life is mostly about her collection of animals… although she misses being able to communicate with them telepathically. 
    For Sebastian, it’s all about his last promise to Maria, which is soon going to force him to talk to the angry mob outside. For the richest people in City of Finland, it’s all about the entertainment…
