How it begins

And now I am about to die.

You are John Doe, an ordinary man with an ordinary hobby. Skydiving. But, you're a little out of practice - it's an expensive hobby. When your family give you the money for one more dive you jump at the chance. Literally.

Everything is going fine, but then as you fall you notice a slight lump in your backpack. It doesn't feel like a parachute, it feels more like a ton of bricks. You don't really want to open it, but you aren't sure what else to do.
