You all see the curvature of the dim wood.

No, no, no, not the dim wood.

You see the curvature of the canopy of the dim dim woods level in Arcadia, the digital arcade

realm filled with video game collectibles, respawning mobs, and all sorts of Winsian imagination.

You see that this is a forest level, or a forest world, and all of you are standing together

gathered by the thing that gathers you so often.

A beacon on the canopy, a beacon in the sky, a gnarled tooth plague rat face in the sky,

a beacon.

The Y-Gore signal has been called.

You know what this means.

You know that it means that you have another job to do.

You've all been called to the zone of the dim dim woods.

Why, Hors layer? You see a large spiraling mountain with a precarious wooden bridge,

and there's a great mountainside, a cliffside in these woods,

with a horrifically sculpted face of a gnarled plague rat, his mouth open and a pathway in, big

gnarled eyes. And you see a big neon sign that's flickering. And it says, Seer Cool Express

Headquarters, we must away. That is so good. That is so good.

It's so obvious in hindsight.

Oh man.

You see a phone number, and it's only seven digits

because they didn't that area code at this point.

It starts 5.5.
