The fog crept silently across the landscape, swallowing the light and distorting familiar shapes into shadowy silhouettes. In this place, the dreams of the night were woven tightly into the fabric of reality, each thread whispering silent screams in the darkness.
I walked alone, the ground beneath my feet shifting like sand, every step revealing echoes of a past I could not remember. Faces emerged from the mist, distorted and fleeting, mouths moving in the rhythm of a song I could not hear. I reached out, but they were gone as quickly as they had come.
In my pocket, I carried a compass, its needle spinning aimlessly as if mocking my search for direction. I paused, letting the fog envelope me, letting its cold embrace seep into my bones. Somewhere in the distance, I heard a voice, soft and melodic, calling my name. It was a name I had long forgotten.
As I wandered deeper into the murky expanse, I stumbled upon a clearing, where the moon hung low and bright, an ethereal beacon in the mist. Here, time felt suspended, a moment stretched infinitely, stretching into eternity. In this place, I knew I was not alone.
An invisible presence brushed past me, a gentle caress of the wind that whispered secrets in a language older than time. I turned, but the fog concealed all, a thick curtain that shrouded the truth.
