Gamael found a worn out couch where he decided to spent the night, he had to rest as much as comeone could in his current situacition after all he had to be wary of his surroundings in case anything happened, so he lay down on the couch and closed his eyes, he woke up early in the morning, he went out of the cabin and found there were car trails he decided to follow them as he knew that path would most likely lead him to a highway then he could ask for a ride back to the city and to his family.
But jus as a measure of precaution he decided to follow the trail some distance away just in case anything happened, he walked for 2 hours before arriving at a highway, fortunately the cabin wasn't deep in the woods, otherwise he may not have been so lucky after all there ara all kind of animales in the woods that could kill him, once in the highway a truckdirved by an old couple stopped and asked him if he was alright, he explained what had happened to him and decided to take him to his house in the city which wasn't mora than half an hour drive.
Once he arrived in his house, he reunited with his family, after doing all the necessary formalities such as going to the police station to report what had happen, he and his family put that event behind, and so a year had passed since that event, he had continuously gone back to the black space and there were some changes, as he begun to spend more time in this space he begun to realise that while he was in this state he could see some tiny white strands in the air.
"I have been trying to interact with those white strands for almost a year now and all I have accomplished is finding out that if I concentrate on a single strand and imagine it moving it will move but doing so is quite taxing on my mind, although now is a lot easier than before, after all when I first found out the could be moved with mi thought I had only managed to make a single strand move for half a meter before being completely exhausted."
"Whats more now I'm capable of making a strand near me form a circle in my palm, and although these with strands are completely useless interacting with them makes me feel connected to the world"
Gamael thought as the door to his room opened, it was his little sister whom followin mom's order had called him to go down for dinner, he had not told a single soul about the dark room or the white strands for he knew they would think him crazy, in the past year thats all he did, he went to work in the day then get home and shut himself in his room and meditate as he thought it was an appropiate name for such a state that allowed you to feel conected to oneself and to the world.
It was any other normal day with Gamael meditating in his room.
"It has been a year since I can enter the soul room as I have come to call it for if my guess is correct that room should be where my soul is placed, and every human should have one, it's just that they can't enter, why this is so? I don't know, but it's really strange that I can only see the white strands while I'm meditating and part of my consciousness is in the soul room, are they somewhat related?, could I make them interact?, could I try to fill the room with the strands?, I wonder what would happen?"
Countless thoughts flashed through Gamael mind.
"First let's try with this one in my hand."
He begun to concentrate in the strand in his hand and he started to making the strand move towars his lower abdomen where he now knew after all the time spent meditating the soul room was, when he made the strand pierce throught his abdomen he was happy that nothing wornd had happended after all this was his first time doing this and he didn't know if he could get hurt, then he started to lead the strand towards the dark room, it was but a tiny speck smaller than a grain of dust, once the strand was outside the soul room he stopped for he realiced that the strand was bigger than the soul room, so naturally he felt fear that because of his little experiment he could even end up dead, after all, that room cointained his soul and if broken who knows what would happen? was he willing to take that risk?
"sigh"
"As they say no risk no gain, and who knows maybe something extraordinary would happen"
Leaving out a big breath he made the strand touch the soul room nothing happened, it was like a wall.
"Perhaps the strands are not meant to go into the soul room, but then what are they for?, why can I only see them when I'm meditating?, and this room although this place seems to be for my soul I'm certain there is a lot of space in here, then that space is useless?"
"How strange"
"Ahh! I'm thinking too much, just fucking do it and let's get this over with, whatever happens, shall happen"
Then Gamael made the strand back out some distance and focused his remaining concentration after all just making the strand first make a circle in his hand and then enter his body was already really taxing on his mind, with a thought the strand went right through the wall of the soul room and into it.
"Ah!, I made it"
laugh
"I really made it"
Gamael thought before regaining his composure and checking the state of the strand in the soul room, where he saw the tiny strand hovering before him.
"To think that outside of the soul room this strand was way bigger than it, but now that it's inside, the strand it's incredibly small"
