Reasoning that Sophie might be in a nearby universe, and that he’d run into her at temple the first time, he built his own shift engine and tried to voyage to temples in neighboring worlds. Instead he found himself in a [[The Void|strange emptiness]] where he encountered an [[Tiny Thymon|gargantuan eldritch abomination]] which he recognized as matching the toy Sophie had given him. To his surprise it knew him by name, warned him he was out of his universe too early, and told him, “You will return home. And tell Sophie that Tiny says hi.” Eric instantly found himself back where he started, with a broken shift engine but a very welcome prophecy that he and Sophie would see each other again.

One day Eric came home to a letter on his door from Sophie, inviting him to meet her elsewhere in the city early in the morning the next day. When he got off the bus she took him to a nearby park where she had concealed a [[Smog Ship|peculiar dimensional transport]], which she explained she couldn’t take home or leave unguarded – so she planned to blow it up! She enlisted his help to rig up a time delay mechanism to make the machine shift to another dimension after they had gotten out and then set off some dynamite. After doing this, they had all day to spend together. ([[PROSE]]: ''[[A Game of Two (short story)|A Game of Two]]'') | |||
