1 - Geography

I probably should have done this before I spent the day checking out the neighborhood, but I'm Green Arrow - the younger one, if that leaves some of you confused. Hopefully, it does because that means I'm not the only one. It's a little hard to adjust to suddenly being hundreds of miles away when the top 200 people that you'd blame aren't around to explain themselves.

Want to know the most disturbing thing about this place? There's no Star City. I bought a map and checked. There's also no Gotham, Metropolis, or Keystone City. I even checked for Coast City. I wasn't expecting to find that one. I didn't. Did they ever exist, or did I dream them up while I was out?

Your allies in the Justice League refer to me as the Phantom Stranger.

OH. I've heard of you. One of the Lanterns is not a fan.

I'm sure. It is of little relavence.

I can sense the fabric of time and space being pinched and compromised, and with each new fold, another being is drawn here. You are not the only one from Earth-Prime, and I am sure you will not be the last.

That isn't exactly comforting.

It was not intended to be.

Do you know how many more of us will arrive?

The future has yet to be determined. There are a great many possibilities in that, and any respect.

“I have realized that the past and future are real illusions, that they exist in the present, which is what there is and all there is.”

Mister Watts never traversed the timestream.

Even if he had, the past and the future would have become his new present, and he would live only in each moment.

And he, like all of us, as threads of the fabric of time, carry on, whether one is aware of the road ahead or not.

But does the road exist if we are unaware? For that matter, does a dying man's road not exist if he knows not his fate and continues plotting his future course?

That is the gift of free will, Arrow. All are allowed to choose what they believe and precieve.

But few achieve true perception.
