He awoke to the sound of purring emanating from the headboard of his bed. It was an alarming sound given that David Gibson owned neither a headboard or a cat. Leaping out of a bed that was not his in a manner that could only be described as "manic," David gained enough composure to survey his surroundings.
"This room isn't mine," he spoke in a tone of fright. He then went into the fairly typical tirade of statements that accompany such a situation. "Where am I's" and "how did I get here's" filled the modestly sized room along with a variety of other questions David knew would not be readily answered.
After he had calmed himself, David decided the best course of action would be to illuminate his surroundings. In his attempts to feel his surroundings for what his night adjusted eyes allowed, he tripped, catching himself as his body met the ground. The floor was carpeted, another foreign notion introduced to his already confused mind. His hands felt their way in the darkness until they found success in grasping what became a cord. Following the cord to its point of origin, David's elation became muddled by the lack of visuals as his eyes adjusted to the new found light. The incredulous look on his face wasn't from the foreign environment he'd been recently introduced to;
it was the fact that he occupied a room that had no doors or windows.

Brand New Kingdom Ch1 part 2
They were in a state of panic. The experiment yielded a phenomenally different result than anticipated. In an attempt to create an entirely new infrastructure, a world dictated by electronic transcript,Dr. Ernest Suelov and Dr.Sarah Bartelt along with a number of colleagues and assistants designed a system that would transport an entity into what could only be described as a "pocket dimension." The parameters of this dimension were linked directly to an electronic device that resembled a book. Any input in said book would immediately be represented in the world, comfortably dubbed "Fictopia," ergo if it wasn't in the book, it didn't exist in the world.
They started out small. The first step was to put in a room, if dimensions weren't specified the book would apply the average room size of the country it was found in. The book was built with adjustable application options, a feature they would soon regret. In twenty-four hours they managed to decorate the room with all the constituents of a typical North American room, complete with cornflower blue paint and a classic decorative trim.
The first major leap was an attempt at transportation. The infant world posed a number of possibilities, one of which was to operate as a backup earth. Environmental corruption was on the horizon and Dr. Suelov and Bartelt posited that if they could develop a method of transportation, a route to place objects from this realm there, then that could be extrapolated across the world, allowing them to recreate the entirety of Earth and place it in a cleaner dimension, complete with parameters defined by them.
