For in those ranks, one was not a mere "worker." One was a Hand. The Company had many Hands. And these Hands reached into every corner of the known world. The Company did not tolerate weak Hands. Only strong ones. To attain a prestigious new rank, a worker in the great Company must pass a seemingly simple—one might say elemental—challenge. Will the worker succeed? Will the worker fail?
