The silence was deafening, a suffocating absence that stretched infinitely in every direction.
No sound, no light, no warmth.
Just darkness.
She floated aimlessly, weightless and untethered. She couldn't feel her body, couldn't tell where she ended and the void began.
Time had no meaning here—seconds, minutes, or hours could have passed, and she wouldn't know.
Her thoughts were fragmented, scattered like leaves in a gale.
Who am I?
The question floated in her mind, unanswered. The name she felt distant, like a faint echo from a forgotten dream.
Where am I?
That was even harder to grasp.
There was nothing—no memory, no sensation, no reason.
Just her, floating in the nothingness.
Then, far ahead in the endless void, a speck of light appeared.
