[edit] Introduction

A spaceship crashes while on a mission of mercy. One of the crew is bitten by a strange spider-like creature and begins to hallucinate — unable to tell what is real, and what is fantasy.

[edit] Opening narration

"What is freedom but the ability to make choices? Between courage and cowardice, duty and love, or even... heaven and hell. The nature of the choices we make define us as human beings. We choose the world we inhabit."

[edit] Plot

forthcoming

[edit] Closing narration

"Each of us creates his own world. We conjure paradises from our hopes, and nightmares born of fear. But what if they are both illusions?"
