Oh well, thought Stacy. Perhaps the e-mail message will tell me
something. It’s at least worth a try, seeing how Amelia Johnson won’t
ever get it.
From: darklord87@******* To: sweetameliaj@********* My Dear Stacy: Stacy was nearly taken aback at this introduction. Still, she resolved to read on, as the e-mail was obviously addressed to her. You are probably wondering how I knew where and when to send this e-mail. The short answer is: I brought you here. I brought you through the parallel void in your sleep, Stacy. Everything is how you remember it, except that this world is devoid of humans. Anything that you do not remember is only a side effect of the trip through the parallel void. Thanks for explaining why I have no recollection of who I am. You know, I’d really like to return to my own world right now. The world is turning toward a dark and evil place, Stacy. Millions and billions of humans are fighting each other every year, Stacy. For what? A measly piece of worthless land? The right to be ruled by a despot of their choice? Stacy, these are not reasons to fight. Your puny species fights because the hearts of humans are dark with evil. I am going to harness that evil to control your world, Stacy. Guns and nuclear weapons would be a thing of the past; they shall bow down to my ultimate weapon. There is one problem, Stacy. Some years ago, the weapon shattered into seven pieces, one to each continent. I need you, and the others I have brought here, to regain those pieces for me, so that I can finally take over the world. It has taken me many years to open this parallel universe, Stacy, and I am not about to let all that work go to waste. Whoever this is, he must be insane! I’m not doing this! Get me out! By now, you are probably thinking I am insane, Stacy. That hurts my feelings. I know your deepest fear, Stacy. I know you fear that you are too ugly and stupid to attract the interest of any man, and that you shall live and die an old maid. For your service, I am offering you a chance to be the smartest and most beautiful woman in the world, on the arm of the most powerful man in the world. If that is not enough to convince you to do my bidding, then perhaps I shall need to use negative reinforcement on you, but I hope it does not come to that. Good luck my love, Minestus Master of the Dark Mages Oh dear, thought Stacy. This man really intends to take over the world with the ultimate weapon of evil. I have to find a way to stop him! Oh my dear Stacy, you haven’t decided already to give up on your quest now, have you? A strange voice entered her head. Really, my love, you should pay me more attention. After all, we shall have an eternity together, and I would not want you to feel encumbered by it. "Who are you? Where are you? What do you want of me?" My love, you did read the e-mail, did you not? Then you should already know the answers to two of your questions. As to where I am, why, I am searching through the ruins of parallel-Romania to locate the Soul Collector. You, my love, should be looking for the Eternal Flame. I trust I did send you to the right location.
