The mage sits before a complex sigil of chalk, the room lit by a set of four candles. She chants in a dead language, beautiful and haunting cadence.
Wind blows loudly through the room. The windows slam open, blowing out the candles.
She slices her palm, her blood dripping into a chalice. Her chanting comes to a crescendo, and lights flash. When the smoke clears, a pizza box is sitting on top of where the sigil was. She opens it and wrinkles her nose. She hates pineapple.

This is your obligatory reminder that physical time magic is not allowed on library grounds.
And to stem the wave of questions that will likely arise from this monthly announcement:
Yes, psychic and divination based time magic are both still allowed.

Most stories have a beginning and an end. While I do respect stories that do have a set starting point and adding point, I must acknowledge that, here, this is not the case. Again, no shade to people who use the confines of set boundaries in stories, but couldn’t be me.
I’d also like to acknowledge that, in most cases, stories are separate things. We can clearly tell the difference between something like Shakespeare’s “Twelfth Night” and a different thing such as DC Comic’s “The Batman.”
This will also not be the case here.
As is true through most of the worlds, real people’s stories shift and interact, and will be changed by even things as small as narrative distance or variations in weather.
This is a world of worlds. A place that is not singular, and many places that are one.
Okay that’s it send post bye
