Epilogue : The world of the purple sky

And none were the wiser, that that which seemed the same, was not.

The unknown truth was that the professor was still on the Earth. He was not dead, nor was he missing. He did not hide, nor was he hidden. The simple truth was that he was still where he had started his grand experiment.

It was not strange that nobody could find him, because none ever knew what his grand experiment really was.

The purple hue was only to hide the missing stars.

And none were the wiser, that that which they thought was the earth, was not.

The world of the purple sky

The professor went missing three weeks ago. Prior to his disappearance, he was conducting yet another of his secretive experiments, which he described as being his “most amazing discovery”. We were all skeptical.

On the night he disappeared, a purple haze enveloped the sky, stretching beyond the horizon. It drew us to his home, but we could find nothing. Even his house had disappeared.

From that day on, the sky was draped in that cursed purple hue. We never managed to find the professor. He had vanished from the face of the earth, lost to an unknown space and time.
