You find yourself in a labyrinth, but this isn't a physical one. It's woven of moments, memories, echoes. Sometimes I wonder if I ever really left. The clocks seem different here, ticking in ways that almost make sense.

In this space, paths diverge yet intersect. A paradox, really—or maybe just another riddle crafted by the universe to keep us on our toes. As I sit by this intangible thread, I recall conversations with shadows, friendly whispers that never really finished saying what they meant.

"Have you tried following the smell of stars?" one shadow asked, its voice trailing off like a forgotten song.

And here I am, trying to embroider sense onto the fabric of fading recollections. There's warmth in the glow of these paths, a comfort in knowing that no matter how winding, every thread still belongs to the larger tapestry.
