Summary
Doris is pulled into the metaplanes to be confronted by an entity (possibly the Goddess and/or Sea) about her loss of hope in peaceful environmental action and her history of sinking ships out of spite.
Background
Doris woke up in her houseboat to the overwhelmingly uncomfortable feeling of being watched. She ran out onto the pier and found that watcher spirits or some other phenomena were coming up out of the Tacoma Harbor, then jumped into the water to investigate. She found herself in complete darkness and in uncharacteristically warm water, then followed a light and eventually surfaced off the coast of Guam.
Highly suspicious that she was forced onto the metaplanes and expecting trouble ahead, Doris called upon a very large mantis shrimp [1] (hereby known as "Vibing Mantis") to act as her bodyguard while she tried to ascertain why she had been summoned. She climbed out of the ocean and desperately avoided going into the jungle, eventually deciding to wander in the direction of Tumon. The entire island was abandoned and all signage had been wiped away as if by high pressure spray. After failing to get a response by standing in an intersection and yelling for an audience, she headed towards the windward side and discovered the ocean to be covered in garbage.
The Run
Aftermath
Doris wakes up, finally actually on the material plane, and runs out onto the pier to find the seas to be calm and the Tacoma Harbor water to be crystal clear. She jumps in the water and experiences a welcoming feeling, but scrambles back onto the pier to escape the chilly Pacific Northwest water.
