Greetings, fellow sentient beings!
I am casting my Zap into the broil of the ZapFic challenge by @felt.buzz here.

Those who brave the unknown are also those we owe progress to. Some are less lucky than others. Some are less adequate. Some might be quite wrong but their deeds can lead to something right, intentionally or not. Now I realize the story above might be quite in the style of Terry Pratchett's Disc World stories.

If you have no plan that requires otherwise, why not laugh your way through life?

Thank you for reading, though ;)
Yours,
Manol
