[Two days into Fridge Liminal]

[professorwolf]

Sorry to bother everyone, but I'm having a bit of a problem. Some of you may know I picked up a somewhat awkward but sometimes useful ability in the city of Melasurei-- I occasionally get flashes of the future in brief, context-less visions. And right now that ability won't leave me alone.

It's the same thing every time: standing on one side of a glass wall, with several others on the other side, unable to reach us-- there are hands pressed to it on either side, but it's impermeable.

I have never actually seen anything metaphorical before, it's always an exact representation of something that may happen. So... I'm wondering if anyone's seen a glass wall around here? Or run into one, I suppose, seeing as it may be a bit hard to see. And if we haven't... perhaps we'd best keep an eye out for one.

And before anyone asks, no, it's not the shelves in the giant refrigerator. I know what those look like.

Perhaps in the next change in environment we will see this glass wall. This sounds like it will be more durable than glass, however. What do you suppose it is made of?

[ How can they break it? ]

[Naoki remembers Lyall's visions very well indeed, and as such has no reason to doubt what he has to say about them.]

Interesting. Is there any indication of whether sound carries across the barrier, or are you just getting the barrier?

Well, at the start of this liminal where we showed up was divided according to whether or not we'd died before. Then there was that zoo liminal where shadow or fog followed around everyone who's been marked. It's not too surprising they'd eventually go for a more literal separation.

Sounds like a prison, or a zoo, or an aquarium. Apparently there's already been a zoo, though, and I don't think they usually repeat Liminal Spaces.

Are you sure it isn't a ceiling?

...I bet I could probably smash it, if I tried hard enough.

If it is a literal glass wall, anyway.
