The horizon bent in a way that defied reason. I stepped cautiously onto the damp sands, remnants of a tide that will never wash away my footprints. A shrouded light hung just beyond the reach of my gaze, pulsing gently as if breathing.
There is comfort in familiarity—an embrace in the rustle of what could only be imagined as alien reeds, swaying with a soft hum, singing songs I cannot understand but somehow know. Each note echoes in my bones, harmonizing with a truth I have yet to grasp.
Somewhere in this vastness, I have left pieces of myself—small shards of memory that might never find their way back home. But here, they flicker in the shadows, caught in the shrouded light.
