The Tick was walking back to the Dorms from Caritas. He had been lost in thought all day since
Angela interviewed him. Could he deal with the fact that he can't save people while his focus was elsewhere? Could he even consider leaving the school after his conversation with Angel?
Tick was very confused. And then...
***
There is a world in another dimension, far, far from this Earth. This world is a flat disc resting atop four giant elephants who, in turn, stand upon Great A'Tuin, the world turtle. This world is extremely high in magical potential. The sapient pearwood was an odd kind of tree that had absorbed much of this wild magic. A trunk built out of it might, for example, grow hundreds of tiny legs and an appetite. While sapient pearwood was extremely rare on the Disc because most of it had already been used for various magical items, there was still some around.
A of block sapient pearwood was floating in the ocean at the Rim of the Disc. And now... it fell over the edge. It fell a long way before, by complete chance perhaps influenced by the magic within the block, it fell into a rift in space and time.
It eventually came out of this rift in the atmosphere of Fandom High's Earth. And it fell. It fell and it fell and it fell and it fell and then...

... a block of wood falling from the sky hit The Tick in the head. He was okay. Just unconscious.
Lockheed looked down at Tick in amazement.
