How it begins

You are an onion, driving your Ford Nostradamus down the Pacific Coat Highway on a hot day in August. Also in the car is a toy balsa-wood house and a chocolate Eiffel tower. You want to stop the tower from melting in the heat so you can give it to your friend, Haroud el-Outside the Scope of This Game.
