As Ethan became conscious and still feeling disoriented, he felt as if he was floating in total silence. He could not move and even opening his eyes was too difficult.
'What's happening' he thought.
'Am I dead or in a coma' He didn't know what is going on.
As he came to his senses he realized that he couldn't have survived the earthquake that happened. All he remembered was blacking out whilst falling out his studio window along with many others.
The earthquake that killed him was the worst one known to mankind since it affected half the planet. It was unprecedented and was the first of many. He was lucky to not feel how his bones and organs got crushed when the buildings came crashing down, others weren't as lucky as him though.
As Ethan was 'floating' he felt movement. He suddenly felt all warm and cozy, and a sense of security he never felt before. Although he couldn't open his eyes he could faintly move his arms and legs. He then understood that he was in some sort of special chamber, and inaudible sounds could be heard suddenly.
As the movement became more intense and a little pressuring a warm current of energy rushed into him warming up his abdomen and relieving him of the pressure, the current didn't stop for a moment, and after what felt like hours it stopped, and with it came something he was not expecting.
'A System!' He exclaimed in his mind.
'Have I transmigrated' He knew he was not on Earth any longer.

As the 'system' was doing all this he was shocked but he quickly came too and accepted his circumstances.
'Am I going to be in some put in some trashes body' That is something he did not want.
As he was thinking about his current predicament, he was brought out of his thoughts when a 'Ding!' sounded in his mind.

[Body modification in progress]
The warm current he felt earlier came back and he felt as if electricity was coursing through him, the type you feel when you haven't moved your leg for a while when on the toilet. Luckily he couldn't move much anyway as it would have been very uncomfortable.
'At least this body won't be the worst' He welcomed this even though it was not feeling good. It didn't last long and quickly came to an end.
Ding!

[Soul enhancing in progress]
'So-' He was cut off when he felt a pleasure so great it couldn't even be described with words. This went on for a while and when it stopped he knew he would not feel something on that level anytime soon.

[Progress:■□□□□]
As this was going on he felt a force pushing him. As he was moved he felt movement again and this time with much more intensity the 'chamber' he was in would open soon.
The sound came back and he could tell people were speaking, confused as it was just gibberish at first, but as it became clearer he now knew he was not in a 'chamber' but the womb of his soon-to-be mother.
As he neared the exit the progress also started moving meaning he would be out when the progress bar was full.

And with that, he was welcomed into a new world.
