A tall narrow building stands on the edge of town, hardly noticeable. It is lost in the forest surrounding it. Its facade is bowed, textured of stone, some smooth and others jagged. There is a small brass plaque, well tarnished, below eye level bolted into the stone. It simply reads: 'SCORPIOUS1's Tower Of Truth. All Welcome.' Below the plaque there is a door made of wormwood and steel. It is wide but stout. When entering, it forces one into a humbled position of bowing, or crawling in. Once entered, the room is as narrow as the exterior. When looking up, the pinnacle of the tower is seen. Blackened widows shut out the sun. There is one bright light, it shines directly down illuminating a book upon a pedestal at the end of this long room. Footsteps echo with each foot fall. The book is open to a recent entry. The top corner of the page tells the reader this is 'The Book of Truths'. There is a chilling breeze that blows by from nowhere. A voice in the zephyr says, 'open your mind'. |
