'Ugh! My throat!'
Aylin mumbled sleepily as she raised one of her hands to touch her burning throat. She was feeling thirsty, extremely thirsty with a deep, unaccustomed ache in her pain. It seemed as if she was laying on a bed of fire.
'Umh! Water!
Blinking her eyes a few times, Aylin opened her eyes slowly with a tormented expression. But, it wasn't a familiar room, maybe it wasn't even a room. It was only a dark, endless abyss and she was lying on the ground, encircled by blue flame. The blue flame was burning so brightly yet it was barely able to illuminate the abyss.
Startled, Aylin looked around as she asked, clearing her throat uneasily, "Hello! Is anybody here? Can anyone hear me?"
In response, her own words echoed in the empty abyss but nobody answered. The flame was extremely hot but it wasn't affecting her; rather she was feeling good. There was no physical pain either.
