Vanda’s heart raced with excitement and a touch of nervousness. What did it mean by a “real adventure”? Was this some kind of new virtual reality game? Without hesitating too much, Vanda pressed the button again. In an instant, the room around him dissolved into pixels and light. A whirlwind of colours enveloped him, and a sensation of weightlessness took over as if he was being pulled through his computer screen. When the world finally snapped back into focus, Vanda found himself standing in a lush, green forest. He could feel the breeze, smell the fresh earth, and hear the distant calls of what sounded like digital birds. It was as if he had stepped into the game itself. Stunned, Vanda looked around. “This... this can’t be real,” he murmured, touching a nearby tree. The bark was rough under his fingertips, unmistakably real. “Welcome to the Forest of Trials, Vanda Wheeler,” a voice boomed from above. Vanda looked up to see a holographic screen floating in the sky, displaying his name and what appeared to be his game stats. “Your adventure begins now. Good luck!” With those final words, the screen blinked out, leaving Vanda alone in this new, pixelated world, his heart thumping with the thrill of the unknown. What lay ahead was anybody’s guess, but one thing was clear: this was no ordinary game, and he was no longer just playing. He was part of it.
