a cold January night in the year 2072, people across the world were asleep.
Fog covered Bangladesh. Snow fell quietly in Canada. Dry winds swept across Africa. Japan's cities rested in silence.
But that night, something extraordinary happened.
Nearly every person on Earth began to see the same dream.
In the dream, a massive blue door appeared in a dark sky. It floated above the world, glowing softly. Slowly, it began to open. From inside came the sounds of ocean waves, birds calling, wind rushing through forests, thunder rumbling, volcanoes roaring—all at once.
Then a voice echoed:
"I am the Earth. I want to speak with you."
People woke up in fear.
Social media exploded. News channels went live. Scientists, religious leaders, and governments all asked the same question:
How was this possible?
