This story starts strange and goes off the deep end in a hurry. It’s a memo to the residents of a high-rise about how to conduct themselves in the elevator:

If you are lucky enough to live on 13, please utter the Incantation of Ages. If you fail to utter the Incantation, and it is reported, you will be evicted from floor 13. When you utter the Incantation, any and all passengers should get on their knees and grovel, including dogs.

It only gets weirder from there.
