I never wanted to go and see Oron the Wizard. But I had been summoned, and so could not refuse.

The corridor that led to his dusty laboratory was full of bizarre paintings of heads. I shivered.

"Admiring my portraits?"

I wasn't. I didn't like them. I felt they were watching me. They were too real. Too human. But I couldn't say that to the wizard. Instead, I asked,

"Who are they?"

Wrong question.

"Why don't you ask them?"

Blackness, followed by blinding light.

The next thing I knew I was stuck in, and staring out, of my own portrait.
