My favorite erotic video game was called Pillars of Thaurussia. Pillars of Thaurussia was part Tower Defense, and part breeding sim. The objective in the game was to breed as many high potential maidens. I had completed the game multiple times and achieved every single one of the achievements. The game excited me beyond end. It was the only release I had from the daily grind at a software company with no opportunities for personal growth. In Pillars of Thaurussia, I had all the power. One night after a long gaming session, I got up from my chair to grab a drink. My vision grew hazy, perhaps for sitting so long and being dehydrated. All I remembered was hitting my head as I collapsed to the floor and then quickly drifting off into oblivion. After a while, I hear the hiss and beeping from some strange device. It was muted, as if I was underwater A robotic voice speaks: “Maiden maturation process successful. Now opening birthing vessel.” Bright light erupted all around me and the water surrounding me poured out in a torrent. I coughed, trying to get the saline tasting water out of my lungs and throat. Where was I? How did I end up here? As my eyes adjusted to the light, I saw that I was in a laboratory, several scientists working a forward console connected to a larger super computer in an adjacent room. The lead scientist approached me, smiling with triumph. “We finally did it! The first half-elf Maiden!” the lead scientist said in triumph. Half-Elf Maiden? Why did that sound familiar? The other scientists in the room clapped in congratulations. The lead scientist approached my, looking at me with an expression of pride. “Project Nanaha is a success,” he finally said. I looked down at myself, still laying in a cocoon shaped metallic vessel. I no longer had the tanned, masculine features of my middle-aged body. Instead, I saw a nude svelte girl with porcelain white skin, supple breasts, and a lower half that lacked a virile appendage. How had this happened? How had I ended up in the game. Why am I Nanaha – the final unlockable character in Pillars of Thaurussia? I opened my mouth to say my first words or ask my first questions . . .
