So far: Julie’s husband has had an accident and disappears. At the police station, in the two-way mirror, Julie sees two people who have no reflection but is told that it is a trick of the light. Next, she finds her husband in bed with her and notices two marks on her neck when she takes a dream-like excursion through the universe.)
“Why me?” Julie asked.
“Because you drifted, in your mind, into the realm beyond dreams and there you were collected by randomness chaos to see the truth which is just like blossoms that open to the world without the fear of future and past, then just as others have before you, you’ve seen the small and the huge that flow into a higher sphere of the quantum communication of the truth.”
“But what if I don’t like these dreams?”
“You say the word and instantaneously you’ll have never seen these universes nor have experienced their multiplicity.”
“And why should I go into this quantum world?”
“I have a key for you which opens up the portal to these other possibilities of existence.”
“Could I die, or get lost out there in my dreams?”
“Perhaps, but by putting on this ring that I hold in my palm, you’ll have full control and will be back where you began your journey and this may all happen instantaneously. You may be drifting through multiple realities for years and fully experience them and to find on your return that only moments have passed.”
“But isn’t it a fact that I am locked into this place here at Cooee and I’d have to drive or go to another place and would turning the ring not leave me helpless and vulnerable?”
“You would be safe.”
“What is the reason for all this?”
“A game. I’m from five hundred years in the future. We are full masters of computers. All you see here is the projection of one of these machines, each of which has trillions and trillions of bytes. We enjoy watching you live your lives but unless much more exciting games are invented in this universe, we will switch you off and create a similar world in a different parallel universe.”
“Is there a projector somewhere outside our universe?”
“No. The projection happens from within through the quantum and the strings.”
“Can I try the ring?”
“Yes. I’ll put it on for you.”
“What about my husband?”
“We’ll be back before he wakes.”
