I used the topaz to open a portal and I stepped through it and into a new world. But it couldn’t be, because my world didn’t look like this. It was dark, gloomy and then I saw something horrific. It was all my friends and people working as slaves a looked for them but I didn’t see them. Maybe they escaped, I thought. But we all know what would happen to them if they were caught. As I looked into the distance I saw my home or at least what was left of it.
