POA ch001 — We meet Henry

Summary: Why hello, Henry Choix.

Author's Notes: Welcome to Points of Articulation, a participatory novel. Each week, I release a new chapter of POA on Tuesdays at 12 pm Eastern time. At the end of each chapter, there is a poll containing options for which course of action our protagonist should take. The poll opens as soon as the chapter is released, and you have until Thursdays at 5 PM Eastern to cast your vote — What should Henry do next?
POA is completely free to read and free-to-play — all you need to vote on Henry's life is an account on Patreon (no credit card information nor payment required).

Content Warnings: (if any) will be posted at the beginning of each new chapter.

The author thanks you for reading. Henry, the protagonist, thanks you for (please, god, please) choosing wisely.

Let's begin.

Henry Choix wakes up disoriented and a bit chilly. His eyes are closed, his lips are parched, and he is lying beneath a starchy blanket. Next to him, something is beeping gently.

He is not in pain. He is not in his bed.
