- My memories of the event, to this day, remain a hazy jumble: blinding white light issuing
- from a suggestion of some mass or object above me, a silent dark-robed figure beckoning.
- Paralyzed with terror, I seemed to move without volition to some other space. Alone but in
- the presence of some immense, overwhelming force, as if gravity had increased a
- thousandfold. A flood of words sluiced through my mind, words not my own, nor in any
- language known to me, a voice metallic, ringing and bitter. This was knowledge, I sensed
- through my terror, from some unknown order, of a higher vibrational quality beyond my
- ability to process, uncanny, perhaps electromagnetic in nature and not in the remotest way
- human.
- But what was it? What was it trying to show me? Whatever I’d been sent into these woods to
- find had after all this time found me first, roughing me up like a midnight dockside
- beatdown. Whatever this presence might be, it possessed nothing benign or benevolent in
- form or content, only a cold, crushing, calculating pressure. Time itself stood still, as if
- whatever place they’d brought me stood outside it. Throughout the ordeal I clung to one
- vague hope: If I survived, did this test hold some promise of revelation? I not only feared for
- my life; I feared the annihilation of my soul.
- I saw many things I don’t remember. I heard other voices I can’t recall. All around me colors
- constantly phased through the spectrum, blue to green, red to violet, black to white. I felt
- alternately like a ragged empty doll, then nothing but searing pain that rent my flesh with
- sadistic ease. I saw eyes, watching, felt pressure in my mind, as if thoughts were being
- forcibly inserted. I’m fairly certain I journeyed back and forth through time, watching it
- unspool like some immense, omniscient recording.
- Then I was back in the woods alone.
