Ay, now am I in Arden; the more fool I; when I was at home, I was in a better place: but travellers must be content. --Touchstone, As You Like It.

If you watch the area behind the chain-linked fence at the train station, you can see the air shimmering. It looks like one of those heat shimmers you sometimes see on a hot road in the summer, where everything behind the shimmer seems to waver. It looks like a point where reality isn't quite real, like there is some kind of wrinkle connecting two universes, or a rip in space-time. I was always convinced it actually was a rip in space-time, and one day I decided I would just go through it and see where I ended up.

I ended up here.
