Mist rose from the pool and hung in the air. The new pod system skipped my visits to the pool, and I wondered if the new portal was the connected to my new pod. Because now I had two portals on the walls surrounding the pool.
The shape of the room was spherical. I was swimming in a giant ball half filled with water. Air didn't matter because I didn't breathe. It was me; I was here but I wasn't in a physical body. Was that water I was feeling? Was I warm or was it all in my imagination?
My lump wasn't dead. I was almost sure of it. I was pulled back here because I ran my qi low and my lump was unconscious. But rather than end back in my pod, like I did when I slept and logged out, I was here, and I didn't know why.
