PRD: [PASTE PRD]
GAME_DESIGN_DOC: [PASTE GAME_DESIGN_DOC]

Provide:
1. Story premise (One-paragraph summary)
2. Setting and world-building
3. Main characters (Protagonist, Antagonist, Supporting)
4. Character arcs (Brief)
5. Story structure (Beginning, Middle, End)
6. Dialogue system (Linear, Branching, Choices)
7. Branching paths (If applicable)
8. Environmental storytelling
9. Narrative pacing (How story is revealed)
10. Example dialogue script (For one scene)
11. A checklist for verifying narrative before the demo

If the project is not narrative-driven (e.g., a tool or abstract game), explain how narrative elements can still enhance the experience.
Keep the narrative simple and impactful for a hackathon.
