Description

Athyra's Story
Athyra is a Fyrae - a semi-arboreal species which bares similarities to simians and canines. They never evolved on this planet, so when strange creature arrived at our doorstep asking for help (in her own language, of course), we were eager to hear her tale. It took a long time for us to learn each other's language, both written and spoken, as her mouth can no more form the sounds of her language than our mouth can form her's. Eventually, we were able to piece together a more or less cohesive form of communication. 

It turns out there is a reason the 'Impossible Things' that we care for are unknown to the vast majority of the human race... they didn't evolve here either. They are from another world, one linked to this by an inter-dimensional fissure - a doorway to a parallel universe. Athyra told us of her world, where there is no one dominant species, and certainly no global warming. In her world, there are beings more incredible than you, or we, can imagine. Such fissures occur naturally, but are incredibly unstable. They can be massive or microscopic, lasting for years or milliseconds. The one Athyra came through (by accident) dissipated moments after she stepped through, leaving her stranded here. 

After hearing of her tale, out scientists conducted extensive research on the subject. We have managed to communicate with people from other worlds via notes, though we decided it was probably best if we didn't send any people through in case the fissure closed. You wouldn't believe some of the people we've talked to! It seems to be that in this multiverse of infinite possibilities, every story is true somewhere. Obviously we have far more research to do, but the current hypothesis is that stories come from those who are in tune with specific universes - the tales they create are inspired by these adventures. Imagination is, at least in part, the connection with the multiverse that transcends physical boundaries. If you could find a way to navigate these fissures, it is theoretically possible that you could journey into the world of any story you have ever heard. Personally, I'm just waiting for the day the Doctor shows up! 

Anyway I have gotten off track. Athyra was a healer among her people, so decided to stay with us as a vet. Her skills are far above those of many of our other staff, so she quickly rose to Head Vet. She had few belongings with her when she came to us, including a book about an incredible group of Vaeryns, which she has agreed to allow us to publish in this world once it has been translated to English.
