The Void

    As Vanetin leads you in, you look around in awe.  The room is very dark, but there seem to be shafts of light circling the room, and as the door shuts behind you, it forms its own shaft of light, almost indistinguishable from the others.  It seems too dark to see, yet you can make out shapes, and as you look at Vanetin, you can actually see her quite well.  Wondering about the tricks of the light, a question forming on your lips, Vanetin gives a placating smile, "Don't worry, Dreamer, we are no longer where we were.  This is the connection between all Fantasy worlds in this domain of mine.  Things will be different, should you choose to venture through any of the doors, aside from the one you just came through.  That will lead you back to where we came from."
    "I encourage you to explore," she continues, "And you are free to go wherever you wish.  There is so much to learn about all of the different worlds, and I doubt it can all be learned in one trip.  So take your time, and you can come back at any time."  With a smile, she turns, "I might see you again as you travel, but feel free to touch and look at anything that catches your interest.  You never know," she says with a knowing smirk, "You might find something interesting."
    As Vanetin disappears through a door, you look around the room again, and find that you've lost track of which door led back to where you came from.  With a small shrug, she did tell you to explore, after all, you head for an anonymous shaft of light, behind which is a door,
 
 

light 1

 
 

light 2

 
 

light 3

 
 

light 4

 

                                                                                               and with a slight shove, it opens to an almost blinding light, effectively keeping you from immediately seeing whatever treasures lie beyond.
