[ WP ] `` Are you sure you want to stay here forever ? Is this truly what you want ? ''

The gate was closing. Slowly, almost at a snail's pace. 
 
 The question hung in the air. Did I? Really, truly? I gazed into Professor Geraghty's eye's. If it was n't for me, she would n't be in this predicament. None of us would. 
 
 I could see the worry, the concern, the sheer terror and dread etched upon her aged, wrinkled face. Someone needed to stay here, to hold HIM in check and prevent HIS return. 
 
 When you were in this city, you had life eternal, and every horrible thing that comes with it. This relm was twisted, perverted in ways that damaged the mind. And HE was here. To stay would be eternal insanity. 
 
 She might think me heroic with my answer, but... 
 
 `` Yes! I'm sure! It's all I ever wanted!'' 
 
 `` DAMNIT man! You do n't have to do this! I'm old, I've lived my life!'' 
 
 I shook my head, smiled gently and pushed her through the gate. 
 
 A land humans could not fathom, and HIS presence everywhere. I surveyed the pale. Yellow sky, the infinite lake, the surreal ruins of the city. A smile grew large across my face. So this is what it's like, finding home for the first time. I heard a faint, familiar song...... 
 
 `` On the shore the cloud waves brake, 
 
 The twin suns sink behind the lake, 
 
 The shadows lengthen....'' 
 
 I wisperd silently `` In Carcossa.'' 
 
 Closing my eyes, I stated the name of my king.
