    The world inside Nebula has been running for a month now. Dorian had, after this time, managed to save enough money to buy a capsule and try the virtual world for himself.

    A single tree grew in front of him in the center of a pond. Very much like other games, this seemed to be a place where recovery was boosted and enemies couldn''t enter.
