The start of something beautiful

It was a dark and stormy night…

… when a red doorway sprung up from inside a pebble circle and out came a warrior and bard.

The bard said, "Ahh, it is ye! By the Avatar! Come, come, we must haste!"

My confusion was probably etched on my face, the warrior spoke, "I told you minstrel, this is the wrong time period."

"It matters not", replied the bard. "The Avatar is always right."

"The… the… avatar?" Raising my left eyebrow.

"Aye!" The warrior looked at the bard, "It appears you are right, minstrel."

"Of course I am!" The bard looked at me, "Come now. The moongate will close soon."

I was screaming in my head as I slowly came to the realization that I was about to live my greatest dream, to become the Avatar of Britannia. But something was not right and I cannot put a pin on it…

It was …

A red moongate!
