//------------------------------// // Epilogue // Story: Of Hooves and History // by Ahmad J Charles //------------------------------// JUNE 15, 2031 ADVENTURE JOURNAL 11 Hi, Mom and Dad. Writing this to say I am safely back home, resting on the balcony of my houseboat in the Florida Keys. Boy, what an adventure that was – I mean, can you believe going through a portal could knock out your consciousness?! Landing wasn’t the most comfortable thing either – I found myself in a hurricane of all places and had to dive quickly and navigate sunken debris to escape. But I sailed and sailed until I made it home. My hope was that the crystal would remain intact, but alas, it vaporized to dust. But what a surprise I got when I turned on my iPad and swiped through my photo library to find a picture of a little red pony in a jail cell! His face looked solemn but hopeful in the shot, which puts my heart at ease. Apparently, I have suffered a migraine from my inter-dimensional journey and am undergoing treatment. Give me a video call if you’re up for it, for I have a very interesting story to tell you. With love, Aiden Walter Dixon
