The Spark

Let's assume that humanity has this force within it called The Spark. Let's say that when people write fiction, The Spark infuses itself with the story and creates a whole new universe that revolves around the story. Think of what this means: are we simply characters from a story? Where does evil come from? Do we have free will? And what would happen if The Spark began to die out? As Mico enters a world populated with friends, enemies, and impossible lands, he must struggle with holding the fate of all universes that were, are, and will be, in his hands.
