    A low rumble gives only a moment of warning before the ground shakes violently. Cracks appear in the ground, the vibrations causing them to rapidly open and close. In the larger, yawing cracks, rather than dirt below you can see the horrifying sight of the Void between the Planes.

    [worried discussion among Shallamese refugees about the coming of Oblivion]

    And then ...

    A low rumble gives only a moment of warning before the ground shakes violently. Cracks appear in the ground, the vibrations causing them to rapidly open and close. In the larger, yawing cracks, rather than dirt below you can see the horrifying sight of the ether between the Planes.

    [oh, it's just the ether. You didn't think the planes just floated out there in space, did you? Carry on!]

    A colossal Dala'myrr grasps your head in his mandibles and shakes you back and
    forth like a rag doll. Your neck snaps under the tension, instantly relieving
    you of your life.
    One of your reflections has been destroyed! You have 2 left.

    Poor reflection. He had such a good head on his shoulders...

    Pssh, they neglected the more important change, i.e., "yawing" --> "yawning."

    You give an empty mug to Chomps, the Cyrene humgii.
    Chomps, the Cyrene humgii abruptly turns pale as snow. Stomping his feet and wailing with discomfort, the humgii drops an empty mug to the ground.

    o.o
    We now have actual proof that the humgii stomach is connected to the void.  Poor dears have tummy aches because the void is disturbed.  The science that comes from this will be legendary. 
    My guess would be they are connected to the all consuming Fire.
    I just think of Doraemon's fourth dimensional pocket.
    "Faded away like the stars in the morning,
     Losing their light in the glorious sun,
     Thus would we pass from this earth and its toiling,
     Only remembered for what we have done."

  • It might just be me but yawing actually fits here. Like the cracks aren't gaping wider but moving in perception, like palpitating but slow.

    The ether is between the planes. The Void is (figuratively) beyond them! Science, folks.

    @Babel: Where do I turn in my application for a Ph.D in Planar Studies?

  • It's actually in Essex County, Massachusetts, though I'm not sure where this Arkham is hidden.

    I heard that graduates not only get a shiny crystal plaque, they also get their very own planar modulator!

  • Is this a new dream?


    A feeling of dread looms over you, the awareness of your impending fate cutting like a dagger into 
    the depths of your very existence. Pierced by this knowledge, you remain powerless as the fabric of 
    your being unravels, each thread slipping away into the ether.

    No, I think that's just reality.
  • @Lyr and @Lucine Is this real life? Is this just fantasy (Now I hate you both for getting that song stuck in my head! *listens to Carol of the Bells to get it out*)
    meh


  • @Lyr no, it's not new.

    @Trilliana, clearly you haven't seen David After Dentist if that's the first thing that pops into your head.

  • @Jiraishin I guess just extremely apropos!

  • Before a small village.
    A towheaded boy crouches in the sand, digging a hole with his hands.
    You see exits leading east, south, and northwest.
    The world chaotically unravels as you move, the fabric of reality splitting into
    polychromatic ribbons that leave you stranded elsewhere.
    Before the Temple of the Logos. (Oops, we're lost) (Saoghal Valley)
     Astigmatic Ophidian Sayuri Van Helsing is here, hidden. Her face is partially 
    concealed beneath a raised hood.
    You see exits leading east, southwest, west, and in.

    If I wasn't a dragon I'd be pissed.

    There you go. :D

    I didn't get this, sorry. Explain further?

  • Teneb was a denizen loyal to Twilight who resided in the library of the Obelisk in the Mhojave Desert (which was subsequently destroyed by Astraeans, if I remember correctly).  You could turn in books about planar physics (which would pop up around the realms and often be mistaken for karma) to him.
