World Building
The Fall
The Fall is a crucial place throughout both stories, representing the subconscious mind. Bowe is the first to enter this space when they get in a car accident. Key is the second when they also get into an accident. While the Fall represents the subconscious, it has a set place known as the Elephant where a man known as [redacted] runs the world in a sort of futuristic dystopian where very few have rights. No one seems to stand up against the injustice besides a select few that look similar to those at home.
