A very mystical, mysterious story. You’ve really captured an unearthly, dreamy quality in this piece of prose, so well done.
Not sure I get what this story is about, but that does kind of fit in with the nature of the challenge, since I had no idea what the question meant.
Still, I enjoyed this very much.

Accurate and gripping…

This story is heavily based off several dreams of mine. Over the years, I’ve created a storyverse based upon them. Thanks to SecretScrawler for the idea.

sounds like Alice in Wonderland or Wizard of Oz. Has someone been staying up late studying the classics?mmmm. Very nicely written Jae.

So he suffered their fate, but it was by choice, not my chance. I agree that this has a mystic feel to it and I enjoyed reading it. Well done!

Lovely. Mysterious but with lots of hints at history, rules, etc. Great job at creating a tantalizing situation, and so nicely described as well.

This is great— intriguing and gripping. Your descriptions breathe life into the story. Great work!

By the way— thanks so much for commenting on my Ficlies! It means a lot.
