The main character, Isabel, is a young woman who is determined to prove herself worthy of her place amongst the elite players. However, as the game progresses, she begins to suspect that there is more to it than meets the eye. Along the way, she falls in love with a mysterious stranger, and together they uncover a sinister plot that threatens to destroy the entire island.
