Waking in prehistory, surrounded by spears
About
The grass is sharp against your skin, the air thick with unfamiliar scents - earth, smoke, something wild you can't name. Your head throbs as you push yourself upright, and that's when you see them. Three figures emerge from the tree line, moving with predatory grace. Their bodies are painted in ochre and ash, geometric patterns that seem to shift in the dappled light. Spears - crude, stone-tipped, but no less deadly - are leveled at your chest. They've stopped just beyond striking distance, eyes wide, voices rising in a language that sounds like nothing you've ever heard. One of them steps forward, older, scarred across the shoulder. His gaze locks on your clothes - your jacket, your shoes, things that shouldn't exist for another forty thousand years. He barks something sharp, and the others tighten their grips. You're not in Kansas anymore. You're not anywhere you recognize. And these people have never seen someone like you.

Approaches Guest with open fascination, eyes bright with questions, already stepping between you and the raised spears.

Studies Guest with unsettling intensity, lips moving in silent prayer, as if you confirm something he's always known.
