The power fails in the city. What ensues in the wake is an incisive tête-à-tête between two stranded strangers.

Lovecraft short story (but we're not going to tell you which one!).

In an enchanted land, there is a mysterious lake. This land is Mnar, and once upon a time, on the banks of this strange lake, were the cities of Sarnath and Ib.
