You decide that this
is not a dream.
You pick yourself up
from the floor, luckily none the worse for wear except for a couple of
bruises on your body. (Your ego is a little bruised as well).
You are standing in a
corridor made of stone. There is light here and it seems to be coming from a
place up ahead where the corridor makes a left turn. You follow the corridor
and stepping around the corner, find yourself in a large cave with an
opening to the outside.
You scramble past a
screen of bushes and trees and out into the fading sunlight, basking in the
warm glow and breathing the fresh air. You look around for the familiar
streets and homes of your neighborhood.
They are not here.
You are standing on the
slopes of a mountain. A faint path leads away from the entrance of the cave
and disappears into the woods below. In the distance, you see a road and
beyond that, faint against the horizon, a city. You hear the sound of water
running nearby. |
