CRASH! Me and Pillowy came down into a cave. I said, "Where are we?" Pillowy said, "E!"[2] which means, "We are in a cave." I said, "Why are we in a cave? Please can we get out of this cave?"[3] We went out of the cave.

THE END.

[1] Written and illustrated entirely by Soren, who requested help only in spelling parts of words (e.g., "Daddy, how do you spell 'cha'?"). Additional spelling corrections supplied for your reading enjoyment.

[2] This is Pillowy's only phoneme. In this instance, the author has provided a handy translation. Competing interpretations of other instances support vigorous debate among scholars; the first issue of the academic journal E! will be published Spring 2012.

[3] This plot element is loosely based on a recent episode of Peep in the Big Wide World.
