When off taking a hike in the woods Liam comes across something mysterious, something mystical. He was just taking a break from his studies to clear his mind, but...is that a portal? He rubbed his eyes, he definitely had to be sleep deprived; finals were coming up after all. He slowly reached his hand towards it, and oh god it was real. Why wasn't this on the news?!

Even though Liam was in a state of shock, he was also in awe. The portal looked so..whimsical. The swirling galaxy colors, it was hypnotizing to look at. He couldn't resist, he couldn't help himself. And that is when he decided to risk it and step through the portal.
