Adam Duval was struggling in a typical high school in an average midwestern town. It was not that he lacked intelligence or drive. His difficulty could be attributed to his curious mind and daring demeanor.His short height and proclivity for raising the wrong questions in class made him a pariah to girls seeking to fit the mold.Disciplined for his latest escapade outside the paradigm of accepted thought, he was confined to his bedroom.

Mysteriously, he soon found himself on a three-year journey.The journey took him to a place where reward was dispersed upon merit, not compliance.
