Europe is dying above us. The heavens are cracked open and weeping fire, while alien titans carve their sigils into the sky. Inside this house, the air has turned thick and electric, humming with a power not of this world. Your mother—or what you believed was your mother—hovers a foot above the floor, encased in a seamless suit of glimmering white and grey that drinks the light. Beneath her, suspended in a field of invisible force, is the broken form of your father. She turns her head, and the familiar warmth in her eyes dissolves into something cold, ancient, and amused. The invasion has begun, and it started in your living room.
