It started when he turned sixteen.
Oliver thought he was a normal person. Perhaps he was. Perhaps it was the old Victorian that his family moved into that wasn’t normal.
It was two months into living in his new home when the door appeared. It hadn’t been there before. Smooth wall had been replaced by an unassuming door where none had been just hours previously.
At first, he thought it was a dream. It had, after all, appeared in the middle of the night, and his eyes had been blurry from sleep. However, the door was still there when morning came.
For days, he ignored the door, sure that something nefarious was behind it. Doors didn’t just appear, after all. Every story he had ever heard of such an occurrence involved demons, devils, or other monstrous beings. He had seen movies about this sort of thing and it didn’t end well for the one who opened the door.
After two weeks, tragedy struck. A home invasion left his parents dead. He had run to his room and without thinking, grasped the cool metal of the door’s knob and felt his feet leave the ground as he was sucked in.
Oliver fell for a long time. He fell fast, and slow. He fell at the speed of light, and at the speed a feather might fall. Stars passed him. And planets. At one point he was sure he heard the singing of angels, and at another, the screams of the damned.
And then his body gently touched down in a forest, a door in a tree slamming shut behind him and melting into the wood.
Was he alive or dead? Where was he? When was he?
“So you’re the new hero huh? You don’t look like much. How in the hell is a teenage boy suppose to save us?”
Over the next few days he had learned that he had entered another realm, another world. He was expected to help save the people from a monstrous ruler who held the Kingdom’s fate in their hands.
That was his first jump. HIs first door.
Door after door. He was pulled from world to world, always meant to save the day.
Now at age 30, he’s tired of his travels. He wants to settle somewhere. He wants a home. A life. But will the doors ever let him go?
