I don't own the Mario Bros and supporting cast. Nintendo does own them. This mere text is for entertainment only.
It feels good to be back in the game. I will continue my FFVII story soon, but I needed the break. The looooong break. And now I'll write two stories at once. I've always been better with several ideas in my head. Please review. Chapter 1 will follow soon.
PROLOGUE:
The Multiverse is a curious thing to be.
It gave birth to the strangest things we can find anywhere, which of course is the very essence of it. Anywhere and everywhere, that's the Multiverse for you. In one of the Universes you might find giant turtles carrying Elephant's with Discworlds on their back, in another one the planets might be doughnut-shaped. But what connects them? What binds them together? Some call it an ocean between the stars. Others call it the "Forest between the Worlds". The people in this story call it the Warp Zone. They live on a planet which is oddly familiar to the blue marble we call earth. It is round like ours and most of it's surface is covered with water.
This world and ours are not only alike, but also akin. They are connected via the transdimensional ways some call "Hyperspace", some "The Fantasy Road". This connection is not the only one our world has. In fact stories tell us that every day. Because what are stories other than happenings on other places? Through the essence of the connecting stream of the multiverse runs one major information flow. We human beings like to call it Fantasy. But is it truly fantastical? Doesn't sometimes sound a "fantastic" tale more real than anything that happened in what we percept as "reality"? Many philosophers thought about this, but not on our world. We receive everyday the echoes through the connection of our worlds. We put them in media and so pass them on, not knowing, that people like King Elessar of Gondor are very real for the people on other worlds.
Sometimes not only echoes of stories that happened in other worlds come through to us – or them – but also matter. Sometimes people from our planet find themselves on strange worlds, where the mushrooms walk around and the hills have eyes – literally spoken.
The Multiverse is a curious thing to be.
This world we're going to talk about is the Mushroom World. It's a big place, bigger than most people think. And although the name implies a population of only Mushrooms it's actually quite diverse in it's cultures and species that live on it.
This story will tell about them, from the view of two brothers…
