You activate the mask's glow-in-the-dark pellets by holding it near a light for 30 seconds, and then kick back and "look up" at the floating, glowing disc shapes (you decide, cosmic snowmen or early Atari video game?).

She felt the splinters scraping her tender back as though it had been yesterday.And he was here in Italy. She knew it with as much certainty as if the painted figure before her were not oils hardened into ridges upon a canvas, but flesh equally hardened...
