I had a weird dream that had enough narrative to it that I wrote it down.
A group of people were running through a disjointed landscape to accomplish some important task, passing through sections of buildings & parts of ships & ending up at a huge temple in the rain. They\u2019re coworkers, and aren\u2019t in the the best shape for a lot of running, and one of them apparently has the task of carrying a door handle with the keys still attached.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The whole thing had a very Cartoon Horror sort of feel to it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\nIsekai (Japanese: \u7570\u4e16\u754c transl.\u2009\u2019different world\u2019, \u2018another world\u2019, or \u2018other world\u2019) is a sub-genre of fiction. It includes novels, light novels, films, manga, anime, and video games that revolve around a displaced person or people who are transported to and have to survive in another world such as a fantasy world, game world, or parallel universe<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
Thanks to some friends I\u2019ve read a lot of Isekai stuff recently, and it got me wondering about whether that dream would fit into the \u201creincarnated into another world\u201d genre, which then had me wondering what would cause a whole bunch of people to get Isekai\u2019d all at once, which then made me imagine the folks in that other world having to deal with a sudden flood of Isekai protagonists on no notice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
And so I started writing it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
