Replacement

Once upon a time, a person was offered a choice by a force infinitely their greater.

This person, for some unknown reason, chose the latter.

At this stage, you're probably thinking "Great, I'm going to get to experience another life!" and whilst that is technically true, there is one small problem. Namely, that person? That isn't you.

Whilst you were sleeping, your soul, or spirit, or consciousness or whatever you want to call it was pulled away, sucked out of your body, dragged away and away until finally, you were shoved into the empty, sleeping shell of the one who'd taken the opportunity to begin with.
