It was a very long time before the Valeyard opened his eyes and became aware of two things: he could move and Mel was gone.
He reached out a shaky hand. It didn't feel like the universe was falling apart because of it. He dared to stand up. Either he'd completely lost his mind or, somehow, the universe had stabilized.

Outside was . . . well, it looked like New Earth. The Valeyard blinked. That couldn't be right, could it? Then again, who knew what shape the universe had healed into? With the amount of damage he'd done to it, there were bound to be some changes.
"Mel?" he called out. "Mel? Where are you?"
