A view of Planet New Berlin can be seen, spanning miles of snowy skyscrapers, all as bland and dull as each other. Normally, these buildings would have billboards, bright lights and advertisements, today though, nothing. No ships passed the windows, either, the sky was cold and clear. Something was strange about this area of New Berlin, something not quite right.

One building in particular stood out amongst the grey city scape, this one was well lit up, as crowds of people gathered to celebrate. On the seventy-first floor of this building, these people all united for one common purpose.

A man stood atop a large flight of stairs, swinging a drink merrily as he accepted the cheers of the crowd below, he was their leader, and this celebration was in his honour.

All but one of this crowd worshipped this man as their lord and savior, a young man with large-rimmed spectacles, he shuffled awkwardly towards the bottom of the stairs, wincing a little at the loud cheers of the people. He clambered up the steps, tugging on the man's arm to get his attention.

"Hello Axel, sorry to ruin the party, but you're in a coma" the young man spoke, forcing volume into his words enough to be heard over the noise of the celebrations.
