(Sorry Raleigh. I gave nearly a week, and what has been said has been said. I'm not one for ret-conning much... so I apologize. But even if you didn't get sucked in, I imagine you can still attempt to investigate a few of the mysteries involved. Please feel free to!)
The realm of Muffinverse vanishes before there eyes. It is often said that traveling in non-dimensions is much like walking, but in this case... it's more like falling. With all the kicking and screaming included. Silence and the inky darkness of a void engulfs them... for who knows how long. They see each other start to fly apart... and seperate in the blackness. However! Alex and Elliot manage to stick together, due to the panic driven embrace!
Bostwick finds himself awakening in a sunlit meadow, birds chirp, and the clouds drift lazily over head. There are a few rabbits off few dozen feet away, munching on some flowers. It's a tranquil and serene place. From where he lays, he can't see much... but he might already have a sense of just how peaceful and relaxing of a place this field is. In the distance, he can hear a gentle brook... babbling away as it washes over smooth stones. He could just fall asleep again! But why should he? There is adventure to be had! ...hopefully!
Alex and Elliot will discover themselves coming out of dreamland in front of a large Victorian style mansion. The thing towers up, like some Gothic architecture... the building is painted a white and a green -- the gables and shutters colored as the latter. Behind them is a dusty road, that vanishes into horizon in both directions. Finally, the geography around them seems to be nothing but low rolling green grass hills.
As for that lone blonde hair boy? Whoever he is... finds himself on an ocean beach. The sky is orange, as the sun seems to be setting... or is it rising? What coast is the child on? Salt fills the air as he can hear sea gulls off in the distance. The breaking of the waves are the only other noise beyond that noisy call of birds. ...he doesn't have to get up yet. Tide won't be here for... a few minutes? Hours? It's difficult to say.
