A knock there was upon the door.
There stood a
munchkin, accompanied by a
penguin.
"We have picked you to tell the story," the munchkin declared.
"Why me?" I sputtered.
"For the same reason we picked
Lewis Carroll," answered the munchkin.
"And
L. Frank Baum," added the penguin.
"But-- but they were writers of
fairy tales."
"Not so, not so. They were chroniclers of our worlds."
.... "Okay, I'll get my
pen."
