  Summary

  To be human is to write history, through fictional and non-fictional stories, however infinitesimal they may appear to be in the endlessly expanding context of the Earth and space, or to the so-called fundamental stories themselves.

  What is the purpose of Storytelling? Is it at the core of defining Humanity in its every aspect? Is there more beyond it? Is it reasonable to attempt to condense all of the Experiences of Conscious Existence into things as abstract and ultimately imprecise as words, sentences, texts, abiding by grammar, taxonomy? Do linguistics cause restrain more than they allow expression?

  What is the Point?

   

  Or, in other words, Cinderella Boy, if the Keys adapted to storytelling through the technological medium.

  (AKA the author gets to ramble about his favorite things while the characters suffer through the pear wriggler).
