Chapter 1: A Plethora of Peculiar People
“Welcome, everyone, to the first official Time Travel Tourist Tour of the year!” announced a cheerful, if somewhat nervous, voice. You looked around at the group of tourists lining up outside the time travel processing tent. The tourists were an eclectic mix of ages, backgrounds, and nationalities: from young schoolchildren to elderly royalty, there seemed to be a bit of everything.
You followed the guide hesitantly, but the eagerness of the other tourists drove you forward. You soon found yourself walking into a large room with a strange contraption that looked like a cross between a ship’s helm and a laboratory. The guide began to explain the particulars of time travel and you listened intently, trying to make sense of the scientific jargon.
“Alright, it’s time to choose our first destination,” the guide said. “We have two options: Ancient Rome or Ancient Egypt. Now, who would like to go first?”
Ancient Rome
