Wherein I Give Myself a Talking To

The Black Void - Episode 265

Well, what did you expect? I tell myself, as I try to get over my disappointment. It's just an illustration that someone has produced. Someone who must be very talented and imaginative, sure. And yes, it's on a beautiful sheet of vellum - is that the word I'm looking for? But it's not magic. There's no such thing. If there are any alternative realities more interesting than this one - or less interesting for that matter, though that hardly seems possible - then this certainly isn't how you'll get to them.

  1. I resume walking along the deserted hallway.
  2. Lost in my thoughts, I don't initially notice that my surroundings have changed after all, if not so instantly or in quite as dramatic a way as I had somehow been anticipating.
  3. Someone taps me on the shoulder, making me jump. "You called me," a voice says from right behind me.
