In the future, the internet is not a place accessed while sitting on a chair in front of monitor - it's a place your mind travels to, your virual reality self dressed in any number of sim personas, depending on how much you can afford to spend.

A new 'world' is shown to a few select people. A golden city that seems more real than anything they have ever seen on the net before. Each person attempts to travel to this place for his or her own personal reasons.

When discovered, it proves to be more than any of them bargained for. Virtual reality worlds, full of the amazing, the 'what ifs', the past, the future and anything you could imagine.
