BACKSTORY 

Riff went through something that most kids his age would have considered a dream come true - one moment, he was playing Minecraft, like he regularly would, the next, he was in the bright sun, trees and grass around him, stone pick in his hands - he was inside the game.

The original wonder of it all wore off pretty soon. Riff learned that things they took for granted - falling from tall heights, fighting monsters, or even just walking past lava, hurt. Bad. Starting to get a little scared, they began to wonder - what would happen if they actually died here? Would they respawn, like they were so used to, or... not?

After what felt like almost a year of careful work and fearing for his life, Riff was able to make it to the end, slaying the ender dragon on his own for the very first time. After that, everything just... blacked out. And he was back, sitting at his computer screen, the clock on the wall only a minute past when he first left.

Even more upset than before, Riff was stuck with a story nobody else would ever believe, and no way to sort out the emotions they were still going through. Now they're mostly taking it out on all the different babysitters their mom has been hiring to look after them, but maybe with a little help, they'll be able to finally meet someone else who understands them.
