'Different patches of land experienced different calamities; some wiped off civilizations while for others their existence changed forever,' the museum guide ushered in a group of curious visitors.
'But one patch,' he stopped outside a steel door,' experienced something quite extraordinary.'
As everyone entered the special room, he continued, 'the conditions were such that the entire atmosphere crystalized trapping the inhabitants within.'
'As time passed this crystal shrunk, but what's astonishing is that not one being lost their lives.'
'That patch survived centuries; look closer,' he urged everyone.
To everyone's surprise, they could see humans moving about inside the crystal.
Now they need to find a way of shrinking people so they can visit
ReplyDeleteor maybe watch them in the museum itself!

ReplyDeleteOh my, I've seen some odd things in museums, but nothing quite like that!
Now it is you who needs to write a part 2! We want to know what is going on with the shrunken people!
ReplyDeleteGreat story - leave me wanting to know more 🙌
ReplyDeletethis story is dying for a sequel. :)
ReplyDeleteI'd hate to be those people caught inside the crystal.
ReplyDeleteNandini, I love where the image took you. The plot would be great for a
ReplyDeleteTwilight Zone episode.
It makes me wonder if they even realize they've been shrunk and are trapped in there.
ReplyDeleteCool story, Nandini.
