All right, I give up. Did I die in my sleep? They always told me about clouds and white angel wings when I was a girl, though nothing says they had to be right about that--it's not like any of them had died before. This place has the white gowns, at least, so that's a point in favor of the theory.

But maybe it isn't Heaven--let's see, what're the other options? The future? I always imagined more city and less wildlife, and I wouldn't've figured on wings as the next big fad, but this isn't bad looking, for a future. Another planet entirely? Doesn't really explain the wings. An alternate dimension? Could explain the wings, if there're alternate dimensions out there where everyone has wings. Hell, maybe it's the past, though I think they skipped the Time of the Bird People back in history class.

Maybe I've just fallen into Wonderland.

New York? It wasn't much a forest place?

[The very idea makes Kay laugh.]

New York's a forest of buildings, more'n anything else. There's one really big park, and then mostly everything is asphalt.

Asphalt! The only place that has that is the Capital! Well, the only place I've ever seen. It's got tall buildings that stretch up too high to see the top of, too.
