About:
A LIGHT THROWN ON DARKNESS

It's always been the strange sort of place people drive through, or they 'have a relative near there', but no one ever used to go to Middle Area, PA because they wanted to. In fact, more likely than not, once they filled up their gas tanks and returned to the highway, they were likely to forget it even existed. Only the unlucky ever moved there, and it was always circumstance and not choice that did it. At least, until a few people who moved there lived to move away.

The stories varied from ones of the town being one of the most haunted in America, to being a likely spot for big foot or moth man sightings, to reports of alien abduction. The paranormal enthusiasts who read about it, started to flock there and report back with strange tales of their own. People living in nearby areas told of a time when men dressed in black oversaw the building of fences around the town and the re-routing of highways around it and how it stayed like that for some while, but there are no official records.

A popular rock band has set up their studios there and a famous author has family in the town and spent some of his youth there. Between its celebrity and its infamy, the town has grown. It's practically a city now, but grossly mismatched. The city officials still disavow any knowledge to anything stranger or more dangerous in their city than petty crime, but the citizens --especially the young-- know better.

If you're adventurous, test the rumors for yourself. However, it doesn't really matter. Whether or not you visit Middle Area often isn't up to you at all. There are dark things in Middle Area, and people are finally looking.


WHERE YOU STAND

There are things wrong with Middle Area. Not anything like broken traffic lights or poorly maintained public parks. No. --Big Things-- It's another town's fault really, but no one remembers that and it doesn't much matter now. What's done is done. And what was done tore holes in reality. Things like dimension and time get a little skewed sometimes, and over time the holes have been growing. There's energy that leaks from this place --from these rifts-- and then draws like energy back in. Reality has always had --leaks-- but these are worse than most. Far worse.

Sometimes, leaks cause echoes to occur. An echo is a near but inexact copy of a person, a place, or an event from a different reality or time line. The echo will always be an ill-fit for this wrong reality, but will often go entirely unnoticed. However, the great gaping holes in reality's fabric in Middle Area, draw echoes towards it and cause more than any other place. Those brought there will slowly begin to more closely resemble the original existence they were fragmented off from. Leaving the town is harder for echoes, and the more unfit for this world they are, the harder reality will work to 'correct them' out of existence or trap them in the town: its little waste bin of flawed creation.

There's often a fog over the town and residents hardly seem to notice it anymore. They breathe it, though. Every one of them. Even visitors can't help but to breathe it in as they pass through. The more simple, or accepting a person is, the stronger the fog's effects. It wants you to forget the town when you leave. It wants you to forget you want to leave or even why, if you're meant to stay. The strange things that happen will seem like only a dream before long, if you don't speak of them --if you don't fight to remember. It's a nice town. A quiet little tourist trap. Nothing more.
