The Holder of Pity

In any city, in any country, go to any mental institution or halfway house you can get yourself to. When you reach the front desk, ask to visit someone who calls himself "The Holder of Pity". The worker will lower his head and lead you wordlessly to a door not far away from the front desk.

As soon as the worker turns to leave, quickly close your eyes, open the door, and step through. If you open your eyes at this point, you will witness the Creation of the Objects and go completely insane with the knowledge. Keep your eyes closed until you close the door behind you.

You will see that you are in a field of tall grass, surrounded on all sides by impenetrable forest. The sun will be high in the sky. Feel free at this point to explore the clearing, but never wander too close to the forest. After several hours, you will hear an indistinguishable noise. You must find the source of this noise before sunset, for when the sun sets, the denizens of the forest emerge to feast.

When you locate the source of the noise, you will realize that it is a small child no more than 4 years of age. The child will appear injured and will plead for help. If you ignore the child's plea, a door will appear behind you. Walk through the door and you will forget the existence of the Objects and anything relating to them. If anyone ever tries to tell you about the Objects, you will stare at them blankly until they leave. If, in your quest for the Objects, you have received any infirmity, mutation, insanity, or disease it will be cured. If you lost any person item or loved one, they will be restored. Any effect, whether you perceive it as good or bad, will be reversed and any Objects you have found will return to their Holders. In essence, your life will return to exactly the state it was in before you embarked on your quest. You will die of old age, blissfully unaware of the Objects and any horrors they carry. The Holder of Pity has shown pity.
