The Perfect World - Maybe!

Imagine a world in which there is no war, crime, hunger, poverty, inequality, prejudice, bigotry, envy, or greed. Everyone, without exception, has access to the exact same quantity and quality of food, clothing, housing, medical care, formal education and social advancement opportunities. Being different is not just tolerated, but is considered admirable.

Now imagine that, in this world, the words father, mother, daughter, son, sister, brother, family, marriage, government and religion do not exist because the concepts themselves do not exist. The inhabitants are occasionally transported to places they never knew existed or required to do something without having the slightest idea of what they are doing or why it must be done.

Can you imagine such a world? Well, I did. If you should choose to visit it someday, I hope that you enjoy reading about the world of Levels * as much as I enjoyed creating it.
