The other side of the world

This is the reverse side of the ordinary and familiar world. Ordinary people don't know anything about this, but governments and scientists know where most of the missing go. Statistics show that only one out of a thousand missing people sometimes manages to get back out. Anyone, anywhere, can fall to the other side of the world. A person can go into the forest and get there, he can go through a doorway and find himself not in the next room, but on the inside. You can even find yourself here by turning around abruptly on the spot. And thousands of people disappear here every year. This place looks like an endless staircase with thousands of flights of stairs and doors. Behind each door there is a piece of the world - from a small cluttered room to a multi-kilometer stretch of creepy forest. The only way to get back to your world is a ladder. There is a small chance that going up or down the stairs you will see a doorway through which you can see the place from which you got here. There is never a door in such a doorway. If you go through it, you will return home. It's the only way to get back. If it seems to you or the creatures are telling you about another way, these are lies and illusions. You can't trust anyone. Nowhere in this world is safe. The sky here is always dark gray and there are no shifts of day and night. Time doesn't move anywhere here either. No matter how old a person gets here, he will never grow up or grow old again, remaining like this forever. You can't die permanently here either. If something does kill a person, then after a while he will wake up on the stairs again the same as he was when he got here. Many people who come here consider this to be the worst part of this world. Most would rather just die. There are two kinds of creatures in this world: the first are just ugly monsters of all kinds and sizes. Most of them don't give a damn about people. They will not pay attention to a person, even if he is standing in front of them, they will simply bypass him. Some monsters, on the contrary, seek to catch people but not kill them - they are servants of the higher beings inhabiting this world and want to bring their master a gift. The higher beings of this world, on the contrary, look incredibly beautiful and frightening at the same time. People who saw them and managed to escape call them devils. These creatures are similar to humans, although thousands of times more beautiful. They have pure white skin, their eyes are incredibly bright and pure in color without impurities like precious stones, they have incredibly sharp fangs and pointed ears. They collect people by collecting their harems. Between these creatures, humans are a kind of currency. They exchange them for services or goods among themselves. Most creatures have three places where they keep people: two are harems, one for girls, the second for boys. The third place is some big room where those people who didn't like the creatures live - these people will become the currency. Fortunately for people, people are not food for anyone here. But people who have become currency and not members of the harem are not valued here, they can be tortured, tortured, killed, they will rise anyway. The members of the harem are treated a little better - they are usually not tortured too much and rarely killed. Although there are creatures who enjoy causing pain during sex. The creatures are only male, so they use humans to reproduce. Harems of girls are needed by creatures just for reproduction. Guy harems are usually used simply for status and meeting the needs of creatures.
