I spy with my little cyber eye...the beginnings of a plot. NO WAIZ, you saiz? Well, yes waiz. If your character be hopping into the past, check out An Old Beginning. If your character is fraternizing with the future, feel free to glomp into A New End. Happy time-traveling, and please do not feed the dimensional ducklings on your way through the continuum. Thank you!
