The Tale of the Polycosmosian - Part 2

In Part 1, Ambrose, our ennui-ridden and tired embroiderer extraordinaire feels like an island in a sea of listlessness. But when a chance encounter with a stranger opens up a path to adventure to them, they find themselves flung across the universe and through time, far from home.

Yet, should the opportunity present itself; a mirror held up to reality may reflect only the beholder’s perception. There are plots of fire and blood brewing as Ambrose faces their own conceptions; simmering beneath the shadow of an emerald mountain.
