The sterile, electric hum of the convenience store flickers and dies into absolute silence. A searing, white-hot flash rends reality itself, pulling your consciousness through a violent, twisting vortex. When the light finally fades, you find yourself gasping for air on cold, uneven cobblestones. The atmosphere is thick with the smell of woodsmoke and damp soil. All around, a medieval crowd moves with purpose, and a bizarre carriage drawn by a scaled, equine creature clatters past. Your phone is a dark, dead weight in your hand; your currency is meaningless paper. The world feels profoundly wrong, heavy with a silent, watchful anticipation, as if awaiting the single choice you are doomed to make.
