- Sometime in the future, the world has come to revolve around the idea of utmost efficiency. Efforts are made all the time to increase efficiency throughout all areas of life. Things are kept as simple as possible. And a man's life has been simplified down to a daily routine that cycles through the same tasks until that man dies. He wakes up at a specific time, turns on his biological implants, checks for updates to those implants, goes to work, comes back, spends time with his wife, sleeps at a specific time, and repeats. The implants are what keeps a man sane in this world, they make going to work feel like a meditative bliss, a psychedelic trip, or a feeling of pure euphoria.
Joe lives with his wife, and update machine. He goes through the same routine every day. But when he finds himself being fined for being late to work due to a large update requiring installation, he becomes more and more discontent in what to him seems like the perfect existence. He stops copying text from his large book collection, and tries to write for himself. And the next morning, he wakes up to find a strange man wearing a suit. Joe is unconcerned with any of the oddness of this event, and merely wants to go to work on time. But the man goes on to show a Omnipotent control of Joe's perception of the world through a small controller. The man, Alaric, creates a world of happiness for Joe to escape to. Only when Joe has embraced this separate world, can Alaric perform his job and stop Joe's life, before his discontent spreads to other workers.
