An utterly confused looking girl appears through the rift, a disgruntled raven popping through a few seconds later. She takes a moment to recover and then stands up, looking around her.
"Well that's reassuring", she says, practically choking on the sarcasm. "Glad I don't have to panic now. Are you selling popcorn and front row tickets too?"
"You knew all this was going to happen? And you didn't do anything? I have absolutely no idea what a Michigan is, one minute I was at the Yonstore and next thing I know I'm here in this place."
'Oh, the YonStore. That was always one of my favourite worlds. And how could I have done anything? I am merely a servant of the higher powers, my job is to ensure all goes to plan. Which it will. At least you will most likely survive, Lil'
"Well let your 'higher powers' know that their plan is rubbish. I don't know what they're trying to achieve ripping a hole in the universe like this. And I'm not even going to ask how you know my name, but could I at least know yours in return?"
'They call me the Farlander. And I can see many things, in many places. What they plan to achieve is the Ender War, which will result in the destruction of the two most destructive forces. It is, no doubt, a war you will fight in, in the Third Army, I believe'
"And which two destructive forces are those, Farlander? Do you really need to cause all this chaos in order to be rid of them? I'm not going to war with anyone, I don't know where you got the idea that I'll fight in this 'Third Army' of yours."
'They go by many names. Evil and Guilt, Crime and Punishment, Selfishness and Self-Destruction. And there are many who will fight. You have earned your place in one of the armies that are fated to win. But until the battle starts, no stone can be thrown.'
"Ha, I read a book called Crime and Punishment once. Didn't say anything about this whole 'End of days' situation. What makes you think that fighting in this war is something I want? It doesn't seem like much of a reward to me, even if I am on the winning side."
'You do not wish to fight? Even in a battle firmly on the side of good, and even when you can be sure it will end well for you? Ultimately, I suppose, it is up to you.'
'You do not wish to fight? Even in a battle firmly on the side of good, and even when you can be sure it will end well for you? Ultimately, I suppose, it is up to you.'
"I've never been one for fighting. At least, not for something I know almost nothing about. How can I be sure your idea of 'good' is the same as mine?"
'Good. We need as many participants as we can get, especially those who it would be very good to have. A Kind Creepy Weirdo like you, Lil, it is a shame the Third Army will not have the benefit of you fighting alongside them. And as for my sanity, I will not confirm nor deny it. Arguments about sanity are for the two fated to be destroyed.'
"Agreed, completely insane" Lilith says back. "Who are you?"
" I'm bob who are you I'm just here looking to get back home like anyone else
"Lilith. And this is Edgar." She gestures towards the raven perched on her shoulder. "I'd say it's a pleasure to meet you Bob but honestly I'd rather be anywhere else right now."

'Good morning and welcome to the beginning of the End. Please do not panic' says the figure hovering over the portal pit

"Well that's reassuring", she says, practically choking on the sarcasm. "Glad I don't have to panic now. Are you selling popcorn and front row tickets too?"
'Sadly, no. I am sorry for the confusion, but this is the way it always had to End. Oh, and welcome to Michigan, by the way'
