Perhaps it was only a case of predestined deja vu, or maybe it was something less tangible. Either way, the gnome then broke the silence again, saying: "Let me introduce myself, Jehu. I am Onan, the Lord of the Past, and these are the Chambers of History." PERHAPS IT WAS ONLY A CASE OF PREDESTINED DEJAHU OR MAYBE IT WAS SOMETHING LESS TANGIBLE EITHER WAY THE NAME THAT BROKE THE SILENCE AGAIN SAYING LET ME INTRODUCE MYSELF JEHU I AM OWNON THE LORD OF THE PAST AND THESE ARE THE CHAMBERS OF HISTORY
ty, I was startled by a voice coming from an unseen figure somewhere on the center platform. It said, "Jehu, you have come at last. Welcome." The voice was very gentle and pleasing to the ears, slowly and confidently spoken, meticulously articulated. I looked around in its direction and saw a short, elderly gnome with a long white beard reaching to his chest and a short crop of hair on his oblong head, which was outfitted with a sharp, angular nose, a pair of sparkling eyes, and two protruding ears. He was no more than four feet tall, and no less than three, with a dignified poise to him, and was dressed in a dark robe with a black and gold design on it. We looked at each other for a moment, he smiling pleasantly and me expressionless, for though I felt that I should be surprised, or at least bewildered, at the sight of a gnome in an underground cavern, I was not, it was as if I had almost been expecting it to happen, as if in the back of my mind I had already been there and done that. LOOKED IN AWE UPON ITS BEAUTY I WAS STARTLED BY A VOICE COMING FROM AN UNSEEN FIGURE SOMEWHERE ON THE CENTRE PLATFORM IT SAID JEEHO YOU HAVE COME AT LAST WELCOME THE VOICE WAS VERY GENTLE AND PLEASING TO THE EARS SLOWLY AND CONFIDENTLY SPOKEN METICULOUSLY ARTICULATED IT LOOKED AROUND IN ITS DIRECTION AND SAW A SHORT ELDERLY NOME WITH A LONG WHITE BEARD REACHING TO HIS CHEST AND A SHORT CROP OF HAIR ON HIS OBLONG HEAD WHICH WAS OUTFITTED WITH A SHARP ANGULAR NOSE A PAIR OF SPARKLING EYES AND TWO PROTRUDING EARS HE WAS NO MORE THAN FOUR FEET TALL AND NO LESS THAN THREE WITH A DIGNIFIED POISE TO HIM AND WAS DRESSED IN A BLACK ROBE WITH A BLACK AND GOLD DESIGN ON IT WE LOOKED AT EACH OTHER FOR A MOMENT HE SMILING PLEASANTLY AND ME EXPRESSIONLESS FOR THOUGH I FELT THAT I SHOULD BE SURPRISED OR AT LEAST BEWILDERED AT THE SIGHT OF A GNOME IN AN UNDERGROUND CAVERN I WAS NOT IT WAS AS IF I HAD ALMOST BEEN EXPENDING IT TO HAPPEN AS IF IN THE BACK OF MY MIND I HAD ALREADY BEEN THERE AND DONE THAT
