ALTverse: An Odyssey To New Land. Chapter 1
It was the very day of discovery. A nondescript stone attracted you strangely, and after paying quite a cost, you took it home. That night you first heard from a brand new voice. The stone has, when spoken, a hissing sound, similar to that of a whisper; as such, normal people could not understand it. Suddenly, as you are half-asleep, you realise what the whisper is: ALT3.
The next thing you know is waking up in a new land, with the blue sun in the sky reminding you that this is no longer the familiar Earth. An indescribable creature comes to you, accompanied by the sound of a fumbling. Its furry torso, big claws and stubby horn do not match any of your existing knowledge of human biology. But somehow there is an affection for you in his reptilian pupils, and you are not creeped out or frightened, even wanting to stroke its soft-looking belly. By the time the reaction hits you, he is already purring comfortably like a dog under your touch. You attempt and say, “sit down”, and in a cloud of dust, the huge monster obeys to sit in front of you.
Like a déjà vu, like a reborn, you now realise this is a whole new world where you are completely on your own.
