Onno is stuck. He’s lost. Many questions. Few answers. And on top of that there’s this strange feeling. This feeling that he knows, but doesn’t understand. This feeling that has come to him much earlier, so it didn’t start here. But where? Where did it start?
Let me tell you the story of Onno the Oblivious, who has fallen victim to the strange feeling.
