[WP]Two identical infants lay in the cradle. “One you bore, the other is a Changeling. Choose wisely,” the Fae’s voice echoed from the shadows. “I’m taking both my children,” the mother said defiantly.	4912
[WP] Twenty years ago, you gave a friend some bad advice, and he was left homeless and penniless. Today, you opened a letter from him with a million-filler check and a note: “Thanks for the advice! You’re a real friend.”	1778
[WP] Your professor’s mistake in a time-travel experiment sent you 1.5B years into the future. Humanity is long gone, and the species that replaced them has some odd ideas about the artifacts and fossils left behind.	306

[WP] “Look, there’s no such thing as humans. It’s just some old spacer’s tale.” “I’m telling you, they’re out there. It’s their most nefarious ability: they can hide in plain sight.” You, a human, can only grin to yourself as you hear the two aliens talking in the next brig cell.	46
