Part 2: The Woman Who Spoke In Hands

*When Mercy woke up, she found herself in her bed, in her room. She sat up on the side of the bed, and held her head in her hand. She laughed a bit*

"Mercy: Oh, thank goodness, it was only a dream."

*Mercy got up, and stretched. She got dressed for the day, then went to her kitchen. It was a bit dark though. She looked at the clock, curious of the time. The clock's hands were spinning quickly, each minute going by at the speed of a second, and each hour going by at the speed of a minute. She raised a brow, but shrugged it off and went to fix herself a bowl of cereal.*

"Mercy: The clock must be broken, I'll have to buy a new one."

*Mercy sat down and began eating her cereal. When she was done, she put the bowl in the sink and got her shoes on. She was going to buy a new clock for herself. She opens the front door. It is immediately obvious she is far from home. She looks around wide eyed. The entire world around her was different besides her own house itself. She seemed to be in a cuboidal container with see through material as walls and a ceiling. Outside these walls was some sort of black void. The ground was blue with streaks of black running through it. Mercy had no idea what to think of any of this. She felt sick, and even felt like she may pass out again. She somehow gathered the courage to take a step out of the door. She then took another step, and another step, until she was out of her yard.*

"???: Welcome to the Hub Realm."

*A mysterious, feminine, and echoing voice spoke out beside Mercy. Mercy screamed, and snapped her head to the voice, startled. She was even more startled by what the speaker looked like. Their head seemed to be one giant glowing white female right hand. They had a feminine body, as well as a lab coat to cover said body. The figure's regular hands were wearing weird futuristic looking gloves. The head hand had no visible face. Mercy stared at the figure, mortified. The figure cleared their throat, and spoke again.*

"???: Hello. I am Vocem Suam. You are now in the Hub Realm. If you could allow me in your home, I wish to discuss some things with you."

*Mercy shook her head*

"Mercy: Um, for one, where the hell am I?! For two, what the hell are you?! And for three, how the hell did I get here?!"

*The figure, now identified as Vocem, sighed*

"Vocem: We saw your desire for vore, and wished to satisfy your desires. So, we transported a copy of our book to your mailbox, and you already know the rest."

*Mercy stutters a bit, trying to think of something to say*

"Vocem: May I please come inside?"

*Mercy, not knowing what else she could do, sighed and nodded. She lead Vocem inside, shutting the door behind them. Mercy and Vocem both sat down*

"Mercy: I-I'm so confused."

*Vocem nods*

"Vocem: Most are when they first come here. This is the Hub Realm. Here, there are five realms to visit, with each realm having three sub realms. The one I believe you would be most interested in is the Vore Realm."

*Mercy blushed a bit*

"Mercy: W-what makes you say that?"

*Vocem holds an open palm out at Mercy. To Mercy's embarrassment, her search history is pulled up on a two dimensional projection coming from the glove. The search history is filled with adult websites dedicated to vore. Mercy blushed heavily*

"Mercy: H-Hey! That is very private! You can't do that!"

*The projection goes away*

"Vocem: Well I just did. Now, onto the questions. Please give me your full name."

"Mercy: Mercy. Mercy Lynn Crimson. Why?"

*Vocem did weird hand motions once Mercy said that. Mercy can see strange symbols radiate from Vocem's hands as she does this. "💣︎☜︎☼︎👍︎✡︎ ☹︎✡︎☠︎☠︎ 👍︎☼︎✋︎💣︎💧︎⚐︎☠︎". Mercy looked at these strange symbols, confused.*

"Vocem: Tell me your date of birth."

*Mercy begins to get more nervous than she already was. Why did this THING need to know personal information about herself? Mercy was too scared of the figure to ask, and just gave her the information she wanted. Vocem asked a few more questions, before standing up. She held an open palm out to Mercy, and some sort of map formed in her hands. She handed it to Mercy*

"Vocem: Please enjoy your stay."

"Mercy: Wait! Don't go yet! I have questions!"

*Vocem hummed a bit, and sat back down*

"Vocem: That's understandable. What would you like to know?"

*Mercy wanted to know so many things, but she couldn't think of what to ask first.*

"Mercy: Um... What exactly is the Hub Realm?"

"Vocem: The Hub Realm is the center of the Realmverse. It is connected to five realms, and those five realms each have three sub realms in them. The five realms act as a sort of sub Hub Realm to the sub realms, as the sub realms are where the real action takes place."

"Mercy: Action?"

"Vocem: I could explain all of the realms to you, but that would take up too much time, and I can only stay for a while longer. I will explain the Vore Realm to you though. The Vore Realm is the central point for three sub realms. These three sub realms are the Predatory Sub Realm, the Shadow Sub Realm, and the Size Sub Realm. The Predatory Sub Realm is full of creatures who follow one rule and one rule only, 'Eat or be eaten'. This is the sub realm I advise you go to. In it, if you are eaten, all of your energy will be digested. You will turn to a wisp, and this wisp will instinctively return home. Your bed will be modified to double as a wisp re-energizing station today. After a while of resting, your original body will have regenerated with the help of the re-energizing station, and the wisp will return to your body."

*Mercy listened, her fear replaced with fascination*

"Mercy: This is all so sudden, but I already like this place! Where is the Vore Realm?"

*Vocem chuckled a bit*

"Vocem: You already want to go there? I admire your adventurous spirit. Most wait and hide in their houses for weeks, months, even years before gathering the courage to explore. Just look over the map I gave you, and you should have no trouble finding the place."

*Vocem pulled something from her pocket and looked to it. It was a weird phone like device.*

"Vocem: My time is up. If you need me, come find me in the center of the Hub Realm when I'm not working."

*Mercy nodded*

"Mercy: Okay. Thank you, Vocem was it?"

*Vocem nodded*

"Vocem: That is correct."

"Mercy: Thank you, Vocem!"

*Vocem stood up and walked to the door, opening it*

"Vocem: You're welcome."

*Vocem looked back at Mercy*

"Vocem: Oh, and check your mailbox. There should be a small box in it with important items for you."

*Vocem walked out, shutting the door behind her.*

*Mercy got up and walked outside. She checked her mailbox, and took a small black box from it. She opened it, and found a strange identification card for her with her personal information written on it. She put it in her pocket, and looked at the map. She began working her way to the Vore Realm. Once she arrived at the Vore Realm, she saw three large gateways, each being the size of a skyscraper. Each gateway seemed to be a portal to one of the sub realms. They were all labeled with what sub realm they were. Mercy looked to the Predatory Sub Realm, and headed there. She gazed upon the portal nervously.*

"Mercy: Even if I get eaten, I'll just wake up in my bed, right? That's what the hand woman said, I think."

*Mercy took a deep breath, and slowly walked into the portal. Her vision began to fade to a blinding white color, before abruptly to all of the colors of the rainbows, giving Mercy trippy visions. She looked around, and began to feel scared again, before her vision suddenly cut to black.*
