It's hard being the poor kid at a rich suburban school, and Darren Karofski knows that all too well. He's ostracized, alone, and wants nothing more than to help out his struggling family.
And he has finally found a way.
The Ruins of Rimnir, an advanced, technical marvel of a video game which allows players to trade game currency for real world dollars, is the teen's answer. Darren has a plan: go into the game, work hard, and reap the rewards. His family will love him. And he will feel wanted.
But it all changes when Darren is the first to find a rare, elite World Perk. And now, everyone in Rimnir is out to get him.
