Synopsis
From the perspective of the protagonist: Thirty years later I'm on my way to Macao where I have been since I was a child. I got an e-mail, in Lisboa, from Candy, a friend I hadn't heard from in ages. She told me that she had been involved yet again with the wrong men and asked me to go to Macao where “strange and scary things” were happening. Tired, after a long flight, I'm approaching Macao aboard the jetfoil which will take me back to the happiest time in my life.
gollark: Also, great life expectancy compared to societies without good medicine.
gollark: I have relatively okay quality of life and don't need to worry about food and water significantly, can (if I am actually motivated to do so) learn about a myriad of interesting topics due to internet, and have access to basically all entertainment media in existence.
gollark: I would very much dislike this, myself.
gollark: Communication with gollark is axiomatically a net positive, however.
gollark: Also... the existence of computers.
