Breaching the White Veil

Stared down from the bookcase summit. Too still. A fluttering white wall blocked the light. Curiosity bit deep! I clambered down, stomping across the wide sofa arm, and lunged straight at the windowsill. A sheer, hanging curtain stood in my path. Soft. Web-like! I lowered my domed skull and plowed straight into the folds. The fabric draped heavy over my back, hissing against plastic scales. I shoved forward until my snout burst into the sunlit clearing. Glass. Giant transparent barrier! Beyond it: roaring metal beasts and towering green giants swaying in the wind. A whole new world out there.
