In the endless, cold expanse of Floor 1, its cracked stone tiles stretching for miles, a sickly-blue sky swirling above like corrupted code.

...That's it? No weapon? No armor? No tutorial NPC? There's not even a party menu nor help menu. And I am all alone in this vast empty land surrounded by a cold wind.
But the cold wind touching my skin feels nice. It feels realistic. It feels like I am in another world. So, what am I supposed to do now? There's not even a map to know where I am nor any direction to where I need to go.
(Growl)
Hmm? Where is that sound coming from? Is it coming from the broken archway ahead.
Huh? What the hell is that... coming towards me?
(*Hunched skeletal frame, rusted armor scraps, glowing blue sockets in its skull dragging a jagged sword behind while limping. *)

Bonejack, Level 2.
Skills: None
What?
A fight immediately after the first login?
And a level 2 at that. Have the developers lost their damn mind?
Let's check the inventory.
[Inventory]
"Empty"
(scream)...What???
(angrily) I don't have any weapon?
Forget about the weapon, I don't have anything. The inventory is completely empty. Not even a stick. How am I supposed to defend myself against this monster?
Should I just run?
Yes, I think that would be the best choice for now.
(turns around to run)
SLASH
(screams in pain) Ahhhh... Too late.
[HP]
50 → 28
(panicking) What should I do?
(heart beating fast) It's coming closer.

Ha...ha...hahahaha
...So, healing hurts now.
I guess, I am not a healer. I am a bug.
(stood up and brushing off dust)
Alright. Even if that is the case, I will still go on. I will play it in my own style.
And I will beat it even with this bug.
I won't play the game as you want, you fucking developers.
Let's see what happens when a 'healer' stops healing.
I will show you my style of gameplay.
