THE MAGICIAN’S DILEMMA

OLIVER IS TRICKING YOU SOMEHOW.

Something’s fishy here

And you’re not fooled for a second

“YOU CAN COME OUT NOW!

I’M NOT FOOLED!

I KNOW YOU’RE HERE OLIVER!”

You violently seize the bottom of the Box

You shake it

Trying to force a hidden trap door

There are no buttons or levers

It’s totally solid

You open the lid

You knock inside testing its integrity

There is no one in there

Panic grips you

You are going to be in so much trouble

Dad told you never to play here

You can’t tell him

Ever

You could just go back

And pretend like nothing happened

But Oliver is your best friend

He’s been your best friend forever

You persuaded him to get into this

You can’t abandon him

He needs your help

You better think of something fast

Or do you want to walk away and abandon Oliver
