Happy Thanksgiving, dear readers!
We hope that you’ve been having good food, good company, and a peaceful day overall.

But not every fantasy story has to have such flashy moments. Sometimes, it’s nice to settle into a more personal, quieter tale.
You got to take the day as it comes, right?
Well, at least that’s the perspective of our MC. It’s a normal day for them—but quite the strange one for us. Because they’ve got the most unusual superpower.
Behold, dear reader, the following:
A lamentation told in a rolling, long-sentence-filled, almost stream-of-consciousness (but not really) narrative style about a person and his friends from our world finding a different world where things are not much fun.
