Nowhere, On Air
Semi-late night community radio broadcasts from a strange little town in the Crowsnest Pass, Alberta (aka, not just the middle of nowhere, but nowhere itself). Nothing ever happens here. Certainly nothing weird. Why would you even suggest that? Listen close. Don't wander off. It's a long way to get where you're going. Especially out here.

[ANSWERING MACHINE BEEP. FOREST SOUNDS]
MAYOR SIMON: Hello?
Can anyone hear me? Hello? Is someone there?
I-I thought I heard something.
[THERE IS A STRANGE NOISE IN THE BACKGROUND]
What was that? (with momentary false bravado) Hello? Who’s there?
I know you’re there! I know… (trails off)
[ANOTHER PAUSE. A FEW HEAVY BREATHS AS HE LOOK AROUND]
I-I’m in a forest.
It's dark. So dark. The trees are- are shadowed, massive spires that extend and pierce the sky. The sky is white- wide, empty, and colourless. The forest goes on and on. I can’t find a clearing.
[ANOTHER LOW, STRANGE NOISE]
There’s a strange noise in the distance. I do not know what it is. It sounds… big. The ground shakes sometimes, like--
[HE SIGHS]
Gah. It’s freezing.
I don’t know if you can hear me-- I hope you can-- but, well, I’m here.
I don’t know how I got here.
I don’t know where here is, I don’t know who I am but…
I’m here. I’m here--
