The Portal Promise: A Leap Towards the Unknown

Metaphysical / Paranormal event

Luke navigates a delicate conversation with Dr. Glenda De Bruyn, securing her cooperation and entry into Clivilius through the portal, amidst revelations and urgent pleas.

In the sterile environment of the Hobart Family Doctor's Practice, Luke Smith endures an agonising wait, his anxiety heightening with every tick of the clock. The arrival of Dr. Glenda De Bruyn, though delayed, marks the beginning of a crucial conversation aimed at addressing a grave situation beyond the ordinary scope of medical consultations. Luke, grappling with a blend of urgency and strategic manipulation, prepares to engage Dr. De Bruyn in a discussion that would veer into clandestine territories, far removed from the routine ailments she typically addresses.
  As they convene in the consultation room, the tension between professional boundaries and personal crises becomes palpable. Luke's intention to draw Dr. De Bruyn into a world filled with secrets and unprecedented challenges is evident in his demeanour. The doctor's initial fatigue gives way to alertness as Luke broaches the topic of The Testing, a subject shrouded in mystery and fraught with danger.
  The revelation that Dr. De Bruyn is not only aware of but also potentially involved in matters concerning The Testing sparks a silent agreement between them. Their conversation, veiled in whispers of urgency, underscores the gravity of the situation and the trust being placed in the unassuming object Luke presents—a Portal Key.
  The activation of the Portal Key transforms the room, introducing a vibrant gateway that promises escape and peril in equal measure. Luke's offer to guide Dr. De Bruyn through the portal, coupled with his pledge to ensure the safety of her loved ones, solidifies their newfound alliance. The doctor's hesitation, marked by concerns for her family and the legacy of her late father, hints at the complex web of personal and professional loyalties that define her character.
  As they stand on the threshold of the portal, the interruption by a phone text and the subsequent plea from Dr. De Bruyn to destroy the phone adds a layer of immediate danger to their escape. Luke's frustration and impatience are palpable as they navigate these final obstacles, with the doctor entrusting him with keys and an ID that promise access to critical areas within the Royal Hobart Hospital.
  The commitment to proceed, solidified by Glenda's step into the portal, marks a pivotal moment in their journey. Luke's following suit, driven by a sense of duty, culminates in Glenda's entry into Clivilius—a world that promises answers and challenges beyond their comprehension.
