Rubbing your eyes, you stop walking and try to make sense of your surroundings. Blackness surrounds you, illuminated by the occasional spark or shooting star. You are beckoned forward by some unseen force. Shrugging your shoulders, you begin to walk forward through what seems to be a large web of fine threads. The soft and thin filaments begin to stick to your body. You hastily try to wipe them away, but to no avail. You stop and look down at yourself. The threads seem to have surrounded your body, distorting its shape. Glowing softly, they project a spot before you which gets brighter and brighter, larger and larger. Before long, the rip in the blackness is complete, and the threads around your body disappear. Gazing wonderingly into the tear, you feel something shove you. You begin to tumble down through the sky....
You hit the ground hard, knocking the wind from your lungs.
I welcome you, Dear Soul, to a realm where reality is truly under my control...
I welcome you...
...into the Shadows.
