Kay E. Kuter: Limbo Being

Quotes 

• Jim Darcy : Who are you? Talk!

  Limbo Being : I am what you are, trapped in this limbo world between the present and the future. I am what you will be if you can not return to normal time at the instant of re-synchronization of a time rift you crated, and through which you were catapulted here. What has happened to you happened to me. I didn't get back.

  Jim Darcy : What DOES happen at the instant time catches up with us?

  Limbo Being : At that instant, since two lives entered here, there will be space for two lives to escape this time prison. That is my chance. I must not miss that chance.

  Jim Darcy : And you wanna take my place?

  Limbo Being : If you miss your chance to return one millionth of a second behind time, time will pass you by and leave you where I am now, in forever now. Black, motionless void. No light. No sun, no stars, no time. Eternal nothing! No hunger, no thirst. Only endless existence. And the worst of it, you can't die.
