You begin climbing down, swinging your feet over the edge, gingerly placing each foot upon the nearest pipe. The pipe is steady. You exhale in relief and your eyes are caught by the void below. Each point of light beckoning you with endless possibilities, the vastness, the beauty.
Like a thunderclap you it the field. Blue lines of energy flash, burning themselves into your retinas. The discharge renders your body numb, throwing you into the void itself. Your lungs become iron, breathing is impossible. Dark shadows fight with the lines for your vision. The starlight fades.
Waking. Cold. The darkness returns.
You are dreaming of stars. No, you are awake looking at stars. You look around you, at the cold metal landscape beneath the stars. A tower, a city, a fire.
Where do you go?
The Tower
The City
The Fire
Back to the Hole

I think this is a great idea, so every day or so I will start at the oak. Where that leads, I will continue this interesting tale.
Good to have you involved, and what a scene! It opens things up wide, with an alien feel we haven't had yet. Where are we now? Who knows? I hope we find out soon. I'll announce you're in and see if we can't get more creative minds working on it.
Thanks!
