The Neverending Story

"So the Tradescan Codex contains all that has been, all that is, and all that will be?" Dawn asked Giles.

"Well, not every single thing that happens. Obviously, that would require a much larger book. You can think of this as a sort of 'Greatest Hits' version."

Dawn considered, then flipped to the end of the book. "Then we know the world ends?"

"Well not exactly."

Dawn quickly scanned the Etruscan iconography, trying to find out how it ended. When her gaze landed on the final three word clusters, she let loose a quiet groan.

It read "To be continued."

That is deeply amusing. Thank you. (Have you read Good Omens? The other book of Agnes Nutter is rather amusing, too.)

I'm glad you enjoyed it. I forget exactly why I wrote it; someone on my flist (I think) posted possible titles and challenged us to write fics with them. I think s/he wanted us to do in 2 minutes or less as well, but I may be mistaken.

I have not read Good Omens.

Yet.

Hee!

...and...

I'll laugh and groan right there with you (and with Dawn!). Thanks!
