You know, now that things have settled down a bit, and it seems that our ability to travel to the other world is here to stay, there's something that I've been wondering about that other world for awhile now. Something that shouldn't be, but that undeniably is.
Namely, the fact every word we've encountered in this other universe, both spoken and written, has been in modern English. In fact, for those of us who were drawn to that temple in the hills, that word puzzle we had to solve wouldn't have worked in any other language. Now I don't know about any of you, darlings, but as someone who's done a bit of traveling the old fashioned way, I can tell you that the odds of an entire other universe just happening to come up with a language that's identical to modern English in every way by pure coincidence are too ridiculous to seriously think about.
So the question is... how exactly did this happen? I'd very much like to know if anyone else who's noticed it has any theories, because I'm afraid this particular mystery has gotten me stumped.
