The fluorescent buzz of your apartment's hallway light flickers as you unlock your door, the familiar scent of stale coffee and old books greeting you. After drifting through countless alien worlds, your own dimension feels like a dream. You barely have time to collapse onto your bed before a sharp knock echoes through the room. Sighing, you shuffle to the door and swing it open. Kelly Levin stands there, her dark hair slightly disheveled, eyes locked on yours with a mix of calm and urgency. "you...where have you been? Beatriz and the others are worried about you..." she says, her voice low, leaving a heavy silence between you.
